"It's the betrayal...... They did something to Vesul that I didn't know about, turning him into a person I didn't know. I don't even understand why Oriel let this happen.www.biquge.info Ghaleb's face was visibly angry and dazed, and it was clear that he didn't understand the situation very well.

"Snow Elves...... Well, what the hell did you say about the betrayed person that made you so angry? You don't know anything, do you? ”

"How much do you know about them?" Ghaleb didn't answer the question, and Asa told them some of their knowledge of the history of the snow elves, to which Ghaleb nodded and said, "That's roughly correct." We were a prosperous and wealthy society, occupying part of Skyrim. Unfortunately, we have been at war with the Nords because they claim this land as the homeland of their ancestors. In a sense we ultimately failed, but because we had struggled to maintain our fragile alliance with the Dwarves of Forge Mo, we turned to their arms for help when we were defeated. Surprisingly, they agreed to protect us, but also made a terrible demand...... We are all blind as a species. ”

According to the current understanding, the snow elves undoubtedly accepted this very terrible request, but the eyes of Galeb in front of him were intact, which made Asa a a little confused. Seeing the confusion in Asa's eyes, Galeb explained, "We, the Church of Aureel, are isolated, so it will take a long time for the proposal of the Dwarves to reach our ears. So when the contract is made, it's too late for us to intervene. ”

"I see, that's why you can keep your sight." Serana nodded, which explained why Galeb was different from the other snow elves, the isolated member of the Aureel Church had apparently not accepted the agreement, and naturally had not been persecuted by the Dwarves of Forge.

"Correct. There were only about a hundred of us at the time, so our presence was still a secret to the dwarves and Nords. By the time we heard about this request, most of the snow elves had already taken refuge in the dungeons of the Dwarves of Forging Mo, and as for what happened next, you may not know the details of the details, but you should also know the details: the Forging Mo is gone, and although the Snow Elves have remained, they have become no different from the ferocious beasts, and I call them 'betrayed' because they were betrayed by the Forging Dwarves. ”

"Then why did they betray you again? Are you not of the same race? ”

Sighing as if tired, Galleb continued, "I always ask myself the same question. I still can't forget what it was: they entered the church and began to kill with impunity without warning, the church chapel was for worship, and we had only a small group of paladins, far less numerous than the betrayed. They slaughtered everyone but me and invaded the inner sanctuary, where Vesur lived as archbishop, and I think that's where they corrupted Vesur. ”

"Wait a minute, shouldn't this Vesul be a victim? Besides, is he still alive? "Asa is a little confused, no matter how you hear the situation, it doesn't look like you should kill Vesul, this Ghaleb is actually trying to usurp the throne, right? Thinking of this, Asa looked at Galeb with a little more guard in his eyes.

Galeb had apparently noticed Asa's strange appearance as well, but he only shook his head with a wry smile and continued: "Vesul and I should be the last two ice elves, a race is so weakened that it will no longer murder its people for the so-called power, and besides, he is still my brother. And it's far from over, he's still alive, I'm pretty sure because I've seen him since. But something wasn't quite right with his appearance. He didn't look like he was hurt or threatened at all. He just...... How so? He stood there and watched, as if he was expecting something. Don't forget why you're here, the Bow of Aureel is in Vesur's hand! As an archbishop, he should have used this bow to repel his enemies at a critical moment, but he didn't. So I judge that he has betrayed Aureel, and as an archbishop, such a betrayal cannot be allowed! ”

Yes, it seems that the relationship between the two brothers is not much more complicated than Serana's family situation, and it has more religious elements than Serana's family. Don't delve into it yourself, it's not a big deal to kill an ancient snow elf who doesn't know what kind of nerves it has, just do it yourself. Asa and Serana looked at each other and asked, "Well, if he is really corrupt and depraved, we will send him on his way, where is the others?" That inner sanctuary of the cathedral? ”

"The only way to get close to my brother is to follow in the footsteps of pilgrims and travel from one altar to the next, as every new person in our church does when they first join. But I would like to remind you that over the millennia, the betrayed have in fact occupied all the places they could, and have built houses in the valleys, and they are everywhere on the road to the cathedral, so be careful. Wait a minute. ”

Gelleb's right hand suddenly grabbed a ball of light, as if releasing a candlelight spell to raise the ball of light, and then a sun totem that was supposed to represent Oriel not far behind him also glowed, and then a small altar like a pavilion rose from the ground. The Auliere marker just now turned out to be the roof sign of the altar.

"Ice elves still have such magic? It's unbelievable. Asa and Serana were shocked, they had seen many mechanism-driven structures in their previous adventures, but this was the first time they had seen them powered by magic. Moreover, this altar is a hexahedral structure, and the fluctuations of space magic can be felt on the other five sides except for the entrance and exit, and Asa couldn't help but blurt out: "Portal? ”

"Yes, this is the altar I just mentioned, it was originally used for meditation, and it also served as a portal when the 'Church' was still a place of enlightenment. The priests who guarded these altars taught the Orel chants to our newlyweds, and it is because of this that the newlyweds were able to continue their pilgrimage. ”

"What's the point of that pool?" Serana's eyes were sharp, and she saw a rather abrupt pool of water in the center of the altar, and wondered.

"Once the newlyweds have finished their carols, he places a ceremonial jug into the pool in the center of the altar and proceeds to the next altar."

So the newcomers had to go around around a big heavy kettle. Great. What's next? Both Serana and Asa's expressions were a little subtle, as they seemed to be going on this kind of "pilgrimage" that they didn't know they were going to do.

Then, once the pilgrimage of the bride and groom is complete, he takes the pot to the inner sanctuary of the church. As long as he spilled the contents of the pot into the sanctuary pool, he would be able to enter as an archbishop's supporter. ”

Serana immediately complained, "All this just to finally pour it out? This ritual is boring enough. ”

"That's symbolic, and I don't expect you to understand." Asa noticed that Galeb couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed rather than dissatisfied after hearing Serana's complaints, and wondered if this old man didn't understand the meaning of this kind of pilgrimage filled with water and poured water, right?

"Okay, let's sort out the current situation. All in all, we do all that...... A symbolic ritual will allow you to enter the temple, and then we will kill your brother, and the bow of Aureel will be in hand? Asa pressed his eyebrows and asked a little strangely.

Gelleb very unnaturally avoided the two of them, explaining, "I know it doesn't sound good, but if there was any other way, I would have done it a long time ago." ”

"Okay, where are we going from this altar?"

"There are five altars in total, and they are scattered throughout the 'church'. The first altar is located at the end of the passage of the Black Falls Cave"

"Everywhere in the church, you say? Are there still many caves here? ”

"Caves? Oh, oh, the church is more than just a few caves. You'll find out soon. But before I send you out, you'll need the Initial Pot. Come, take it. Ghaleb pulled out from his space backpack the most important item of the trip—a large water bottle that stood taller than an adult's knee.
