4. The Road of Thorns
After completing the task of the novice guide, Jian Chen returned to his Starry Sky Temple. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Jian Chen sat on his domineering and luxurious long chair, propped his chin on his hand, and observed the model of Azeroth in front of him.
Unlike at the beginning, most of the area was now shrouded in the fog of war, making it unviewable, but he could see a group of Night Elves, led by Azhara, on their way back to the camp of the dark trolls of Mount Hyjal.
Aishara divided her team of 10 people into three groups. Two strong warriors were left behind to look after the Well of Eternity, and although it was only a glimpse of the way, the clever Azhara had already learned the value of the Well of Eternity, so it had to be ensured.
The two warriors were naturally weak to protect such a large spring, but fortunately it had been there for a long time, and Aishara had set up a defense here, more to be wary of enemies who might attack them.
If all is well, Aeshara hopes that they will be able to choose a proper clearing in the vicinity and build a simple camp for the other people who are about to arrive - of course, this will not be done in a day, so their focus will be on defense.
Two sentries were ordered by Azhara to gather information in the forest where the Well of Eternity was located, which she named Contact. Although Jian Chen didn't mention it to her, Aishara herself had already thought that if she wanted to take root in this land, she would inevitably have to come into contact with the indigenous people here. For this, Aishara actually saw this more clearly than Jian Chen, after all, she was the native of Azeroth.
There has never been a change or expansion of territory in history that has not been changed by war. Even though the dark trolls had fled the valley of Mount Hyjal to escape the war, the irony was that they had gradually settled down by taking away the territory of the bears that had been entrenched there and driving them further north into the mountains.
A war wasn't what Ishshara wanted, though, at least not yet.
Now that the Night Elves are too small to withstand the danger of starting a war, and any irrational behavior could kill this young race, Aishara's request to her companions is to avoid the vicious-looking races - the terrible two-headed dragons in her eyes - the Chimera is not a good neighbor, but can show favor to the mild-looking races, such as the dryads.
Although there was no use for Jian Chen other than to believe in him, from Mount Hyjal to this forest, the Night Elves still brought some special products, which may be a good gift for those neighbors.
As for Azhara herself, she led the remaining six people, almost all of whom were her maids when she was a priest in the past, and personally carried out the important tasks assigned to her by Jian Chen.
This is a test given to her by the gods, and a trial to give her fellow citizens a new lease of life, and there is no room for failure, Azhara thought.
It took about one month to reach Mount Hyjal from the tranquil forests of the Well of Eternity, through long plains and foothills, and in fact, it was the first time since their birth that they had come to such a distance from the Holy Mountain.
Now, Azhara is leading her handmaidens through the vast land that would later bear her name, and of course, they are still one with the continent.
Each of the maids around Aishara is her cronies, and among them is a girl named Vasqi, who is also the most favored one of Aishara because she is very smart and clever. She had always been loyal to Azhara, and when Azhara received a revelation and left with the 10 attendants from Mount Hyjal, many of the people, or most of them, were opposed, but Vaskie followed, convinced that Esshara was the better person to lead the tribe to glory than the old, pedantic leader Byrd.
"Priest, do you think the patriarch will grant our request when we return from this trip?" So asked the young Vasqui, who was only thirteen years old now, and was already born with red lips and white teeth, and was exceptionally handsome. A clean and round baby face, he is the youngest of the maids.
"What do you think?" Instead of scolding her for her childish words, Aishara asked the same question.
Now the questioner became the answerer, and Vaschi scratched her ear.
"I don't think the leader would have agreed to us so easily, after all, he doesn't seem to approve of everyone going too far from the foothills." Vasqui's eyes widened and she spoke her opinion.
"That's right." Aishara nodded in approval.
This is still a conservative statement, Aishara thought, after all, when she said that she would come out to follow the Divine Revelation to find the holy realm in her dreams, the old guy from Baird even roared at herself: "The holy land is in this mountain!" ”
He is old, and although he was a valiant warrior and led the dark trolls to survive the clan wars when he was the chieftain, the years have smoothed his edges and corners, making his personality as smooth as his jaws, and he can no longer see his original blood.
(Note: There are two positions in the troll clan, the chief and the chief, the former is responsible for fighting, and the latter is responsible for life and production, which can be understood as listening to the chief during the war and the chief after the war.) However, because the trolls are a warlike race, and the war period is much longer than the peace period, the chieftain seems to have more power than the chief, but basically the leader is a retired chieftain, so there is not much difference between the two)
"He might stand up and thwart us." "But the rest of the people also have the right to choose their own path. ”
"Lord Priest."
"Don't call me Lord Priest anymore, maybe this position will still be applicable someday in the future, but not now, I want you to understand that the god we believe in is no longer Luoa, but the only true god, Chen Jian."
Although the name is extremely awkward, it is the feeling of modern people, for the newborn elves, the name is like engraved on a stone tablet, recorded in the inscription of the Titan, and when it comes out of the mouth of Aishara, it is full of solemn and sacred feeling.
Azhara's words sent shivers down the shoulders of the other Night Elves.
It's not because the name Jian Chen makes people feel shocked when they hear it, but because the meaning of Aishara's words is to abandon the past and draw a line with the trolls.
They had a strong premonition --
Perhaps, after this visit, the Night Elves and the Dark Elves will no longer be the same race.
"My words, whether the stars fall to the ground or the earth splits in half, they will always follow you!" At this time, the youngest Vaschi was the first to express her position.
Aishara touched her head with her hand and smiled.
And the other maids-in-waiting, not to be outdone, were at once allegiance—indeed, they were now completely different, and had been given a new lease of life by the power of the spring of the Well of Eternity. The emerging wisdom told them that the Dark Troll diehards would not accept a race of different looks and skin tones, and that they could no longer tolerate each other's blood-drinking and savagery.
"And what shall we call you?" At this time, a maid named Nightsong asked.
"Just call me by my name, Azara."
"How dare that."
"Then add the word adult."
The maids looked at each other.
Then the tone was unified: "We will always follow you, Lord Aishara!" ”
"Good." Azhara smiled again, and even as a companion to women, they thought she was beautiful.
And Azhara was also looking at her fellow citizens with her beautiful, stunning golden pupils.
Night elves and trolls are the same, they are very tall, and their ears are pointed and long, which is their similarity, but when it comes to the spirit between the two, it is completely different, the trolls have long bodies, but they always hold their bodies, that is because they carry war halberds, spears, and even totems all year round, and they, the night elves, have a backbone that can never be yielded.
It's going to be different from the past.
Aishara thought as she watched the scene.
