When the human world turned its attention to the orcs, the nascent tribe was once again scattered.

Most of the orcs scattered to the south, while the few went north.

"A wise choice."

Uther commented on the orc's actions.

A huge enemy standing in front of you, if not immediately triggering a battle, would pull the heart of the human kingdom tightly. However, the scattered behavior of the orcs made the kings much less worried, and at the same time made it more difficult to start.

No one is sure to deal with the scattered orcs all at once.

This action of the tribe can be described as killing two birds with one stone, of course, but it also inevitably exposes vulnerability.

It was a big gamble, and both humans and orcs seemed very careful.

By this time, however, Kael'thas was going to go back - he didn't have much time to watch the events until the end.

Just before he left, Uther received a startling news: Tirio. Fording - The paladin who had just separated from Kael'thas some time ago was captured in Stratholme.

Legend has it that he met an orc on his way back and then betrayed his subordinates for the sake of this orc.

When he heard the news, Kael'thas couldn't even believe his ears.

He just combed through 'Love and Family' some time ago, and this story happened immediately?

"I'm going to Stratholme to preside over the ceremony."

After that, Uther asked Kael'thas with a sad face:

"Your Highness, do you want to come with me?"

Kael'thas was stunned for a moment by this unexpected circumstance, and he thought about it, and then agreed.

The journey continued, along with Gianna.

Of course, Kael'thas didn't just go north because of Tirio. In the case of Fordin, he actually thinks that Thrall is also on his way to the north.

More importantly, Kael'thas wanted to see what was going on on on Stratholme's side.

During this period of time, there has been no movement of the undead in the information in his hands. And Kael'thas remembered that the place where the movement of the undead began in history was in the north, and Stratholme was also a very important place, and it was necessary for him to see the situation with his own eyes.

It was the first time Kael'thas had gone to a place so north that he hadn't gone home to go home.

Stratholme is the first large city on the border of Quel'Thalas, across the mountain from the High Elf fortress of Dessom.

But before reaching the city, an unexpected person caught up with them from behind.

"Sylvanas?"

When Kael'thas saw this man clearly, he couldn't help but wonder:

"Why are you here? Can I help you? ”

He had a gut feeling that something was going on in Karazhan.

But Sylvanas shook her head.

"No, Your Highness"

She replied:

"I've heard about the orcs' unusual actions recently, and it's too dangerous for you to have no one around to protect you."

This sentence clarifies her intentions.

Kael'thas accepted with a wry smile, he sometimes didn't know what to do with this woman.

Several people entered Stratholme, and with the guidance of the guards, they came to the church here.

At this moment, the church is already crowded, and people gathered outside to watch the excitement.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

The guards stepped forward to clear the way, and then led Uther and Kael'thas through the guards, walking up the gentle staircase towards the church.

The red carpet leads directly from the open church door to the bottom end.

Inside the church, some nobles and dozens of paladins stood densely, and at the top there were several senior priests and paladins discussing fiercely.

And Tirio, who I just met some time ago. Ferdin, just kneeling quietly in the center and waiting for the result.

"Lord Uther is here."

The discussants saw Uther and came up to greet him with joyful faces.

Kael'thas was placed on the jury.

He learned what had happened from another member.

It turned out that Tirio. Shortly after parting ways with Kalia, Fordin encounters a reclusive orc named 'Itreig', and the two fight hard - not expecting Tirio to lose consciousness when he accidentally gets hit by a fragment of the ruins.

The orcs saved him, and Tirio found the orc on his own. The two chatted at length, and Itreig told Tirio about the orc's noble past, and that it was the Burning Legion that forced him to leave his people to escape the war.

Etreig's high-spirited words and deeds triumphed over hatred and prejudice, and won the sympathy of the Paladin, who also valued honor above all else, and Tirio vowed never to reveal his whereabouts to the outside world.

However, his men captured the orc behind his back.

When Tirio saw that Itreig, who had been escorted back to the city, was beaten, he became furious and attacked his men.

This leads to the current result

[Nothing has changed.] 】

Kael'thas guessed the ending after making sure that the story was exactly the same as history.

He looked at Gianna and saw the mage girl with anger on her face - obviously upset for Tirio.

But what about injustice? The trial must go on.

"Tirio, did you know that helping orcs attack humans is treasonous?"

Uther, as the leader of the Silver Hand, can only judge this friend with these words:

"Does that mean that the orc used stratagems and other things to confuse you?"

He winked at Tirio.

These words also made some people who knew Tirio look at him nervously.

Clearly, Uther wanted Tirio to put all the blame on the orcs and help clear his name.

But at this critical moment, Tirio suddenly paused.

He looked up at Uther.

"No, Uther, it's all my own choice."

Tirio looked around the church, then turned to Kael'thas .

"Your Highness Kael'thas, after the last time I separated from you, I had something to say to Princess Kalia"

He smiled, seemingly unconcerned about the outcome of the trial.

"She asked me if the glory of the Light belonged only to humanity, and I replied to her."

Tirio slowly straightened his chest and fixed his gaze on the banner of the Silver Hand behind Uther:

"Race does not speak of glory, the Light belongs to the righteous side."

"I still think so"

Same ending

Kael'thas seemed to hear sighs around him, and Tirio's accusations could no longer be excused.

Especially in this sensitive time, even Uther did not dare to help Tirio twice.

After several people turned around, Tirio was not charged with treason, but the fact of attacking his subordinates was unavoidable, and Tirio was fired by the Silver Hand.

In Kael'thas's opinion, this is very ridiculous, because the rebirth of the Silver Hand in history was completed by this expulsed man.

Afterward, with a heavy heart, Uther personally presided over the ritual to remove Tirio's Light.

This was the first time Kael'thas had seen the deprivation of the Light's powers.

Most of the holy light mastered by the paladins in this world comes from the church, and for this kind of paladin, as Archbishop Alonsos. Uther, the Fao, has the right to deprive the Light of its powers.

After being deprived of the Holy Light, Tirio no longer has any strength other than a stronger physique than ordinary people.

But for Tirio's safety, Uther secretly expelled him.

Kael'thas left the church with the two girls.

"Why don't you stop it?"

After going out, Gianna asked Kael'thas this question.

"What about you?"

Kael'thas asked rhetorically:

"You're so angry, but why don't you stop it?"

Gianna was silent.

"I can't do it"

After a long time, she whispered:

"I don't have any power, and this is Lordaeron"

This mage girl doesn't look stupid at all.

"Well, I can't do it either."

Kael'thas interface.

"You're lying!"

However, Gianna was interrupted by this remark, and she said with a little red face:

"You defeated the orcs, your status is so high, you can definitely save a human!"

She saw very well that the implications of this matter did not concern the kings, so those in charge of the trial would surely be willing to grant Kael'thas if they asked.

This idea may be correct, but

"I'm not human."

Kael'thas replied to Gianna's anger in a cold tone:

"I'm out there right now, and I'm not going to do anything extra to add trouble."

He was also well aware of Tirio's end, so he didn't have the heart to be a good man.

Gianna was speechless for a moment.

But she finally got a glimpse of Kael'thas at the mercy of Kael'thas that the elven prince was far from being as kind as he seemed, and his actions seemed to be carried out according to a framework of purpose.

Is he an extreme racist? 】

At this time, Gianna had already begun to speculate about this thing that many people had not noticed.

But her speculation dissipated in a moment.

A prisoner cart loaded with orcs drove past them.

"Is this what it is?"

Gianna hesitated, but Kael'thas immediately knew the orc's identity:

"Itregg—I guess this is the orc friend Tirio protects."

He had seen this guy in the game before, so he naturally recognized it.

"But hasn't he been rescued by Tirio?"

Gianna exclaimed:

"Why were you caught again?"

At this time, she seemed naïve again.

"How could a human let him run away."

Sylvanas had long been displeased with Gianna, and mocked on the side:

"I think no matter what the outcome of that trial just now, this orc will definitely be captured and killed"

Kael'thas nodded.

"I don't think his execution will be a few days away."

At this time, he decided to stay a few more days and wait for the orcs to be executed.

This allows Kael'thas to meet Thrall, who came to save Itrig, and say goodbye to him.
