Chapter 3: The Dust Swamp
Elves live at a very slow pace, and humans certainly can't stand their pace of life. Due to the short life of human beings, the pace of everything is very fast, and it is estimated that the elves will not be able to accept it. Occasionally, when you are in a daze, you will feel that half a day has passed, especially the speed of his and Mavi's development can be called turtle speed. It shouldn't be slower than a turtle, it's been 2,000 years, and they're just in the early stages of holding hands and hugging them. It is estimated that the earthlings are unimaginable.
The healing power of the World Tree is still very strong, and the dark canopy has passed. The elves are also beginning to move out of Mount Hyjal, which is still the capital, of course. However, the breeding of elves is very slow, and the number of years has only increased by more than two times, after all, it takes a thousand years for an elf to be born to maturity.
But it's already very good, the elves are carrying the fire of civilization to the world and the future, and Cadore has evolved.
Managing a country is very hard, you have to consider all the troubles such as population, material, class contradictions, etc., and let it develop in a balanced and orderly manner. What Kadore lacks most now is population, less than a million is too small for a race. However, nothing was rushed, and soon Moon Shadow thought of a message that he had to leave the palace and go for a walk.
The cataclysm tore apart the continent of Kalimdor, and only a small fragment of Aisaline remained. Most of it sank into the sea, and the rest of it was torn in half by the forces of destruction, and the other half was on the other side of the sea. Moon Shadow rode slowly south on the body of a horned Hippogriff, watching the post-disaster Azeroth.
Through the barrens, he reached the Dust Swamp. Seeing this, Moon Shadow also began to feel nostalgic, the geography of the Dust Swamp is as its name suggests, a stinky swamp. You can find bogs, wetlands and other goodies here. The whole area is a low-lying transitional zone, connecting the endless sea in the east and the barren land in the northwest. The southern part of the Dust Swamp is close to the Thousand Needles Forest, but a small mountain range runs through it, making it difficult to travel directly. Meadows, reeds, and weeping willows make up the local vegetation. The Dust Swamp was once located next to Esarin, the center of the former Kalimdor continent. When the cataclysm split the continent in half, much of the land around the Dust Swamp sank into the sea. The automatic adjustment of the ecosystem has transformed it into a wetland form.
What he misses is not the stench of this place, but a big black dragon named Onexia. She is the daughter of Deathwing and the sister of Nefarian, King of the Blackstone Tower. Therefore, it can be called the black dragon princess. Onexia lurks in Stormwind as a human nobleman, corrupting the politics of the Stormwind Kingdom. After being exposed by Marshal Reginald Windsor, he became a wanted criminal in the world of Azeroth.
Onexia took part in the politics of Stormwind as a human form, the aristocrat Catlana Presto, and was quickly appreciated and trusted by the regent at the time, Duke Berval Vortagen, due to her beauty and knowledge. Normally, she and Duke Berval Vortagen stand on either side of the Minor King Anduin Wrynn, which shows the status of this countess in Stormwind. However, the corruption of the nobles of Stormwind, the rampant Brotherhood of Defia, and the disappearance of the old king, King Varian Ureon, are all said to be related to Lady Catlana Presto. She shielded her brother Nefarian from experimenting with colorful dragons in Blackstone Mountain, and refused to send rescue troops to Lakeside Town, resulting in the people of Lakeside Town being persecuted by Black Dragons and Blackstone Orcs, and living in dire straits.
The coup d'état took place, and Countess Catlana Presto fled
Marshal Reginald Windsor, who was supposed to be imprisoned in the Black Iron Dwarf Prison in the Blackstone Abyss, escaped from the Blackstone Abyss and arrived at the Stormwind Fortress, where he publicly revealed the true identity of Countess Katrana Presto, the Black Dragon Princess Onexia. An enraged Black Dragon Princess appears and kills Reginald Windsor with a bolt of lightning, while the Stormwind Royal Guards in the Stormstorm Fortress regain their true form and attack Bervar Vortagen, while Onexia flees back to the Black Dragon's lair in the Dust Swamp.
Duke Berval Vertagen killed the Black Dragons besieging him, looked at the corpse of Marshal Reginald Wendthor in front of him, and finally came to his senses. Duke Vortagen immediately summoned the warriors of the Alliance to attack Onexia's lair and avenge the venerable old comrade-in-arms. Eventually, Onexia was killed by the warriors, and her head was hung at the gates of Stormwind.
However, the reason why Moon Shadow remembers it is that he once got the mount dropped by this boss, the extremely rare "Reins of the Onexia Dragon". But for a while, he was envious of others. Also, someone once asked if Warcraft's mount could be brought to reality, which one would you choose? A minotaur couldn't wait to say, "Of course it's Onexia, riding a dragon during the day and a horse at night." ”
Moonshadow smiled at the thought of this, and Moonshadow drove his mount to Onexia's lair from memory. Moon Shadow wasn't sure what he could find, but he was willing to give it a try.
"I really found it." Looking at the cave on the ground, Moon Shadow suddenly smiled. There were several black dragon cubs patrolling around, and Moon Shadow knew that Onexia might be here right now. Although the Black Dragons rebelled when the Burning Legion invaded, with the help of Moon Shadow, a large number of Black Dragons were imprisoned. Including Nesario. But there are still some people who did not participate in the war who escaped their fate, and it seems that Onexia is one of them.
Moon Shadow jumped off his mount, and in a few flashes came to the entrance of the cave. He didn't alarm the patrolling guards, and with Moon Shadow's strength, he couldn't even see it if he wanted them to find out, even if he was standing in front of them. There is a protective magical barrier at the doorway, but that doesn't stop Moon Shadow. He walked in casually, and with his understanding of space, he could completely dismiss the protective barrier as nothing.
This cave is built inside a volcanic crater, and it is completely understandable that the black dragon is originally the guardian of the earth. Moon Shadow walked slowly towards the depths of the cavern, unnoticed by the dragonman guards, who were humanoids blessed by the dragons and took on the role of dragon servants. The cave is tall but not deep. Moon Shadow soon reached the bottom of the cave, where a huge black dragon was sleeping. The distinctive horns and cockscomb-like dorsal fin Moon Shadow can be identified as Onexia.
Moon Shadow walked over to the dragon's head and slapped her nose mischievously. The dragon woke up startled in his dream, and its two huge eyes stared at the creature in front of it.
"Who are you? It's impossible・・・・・ how can you get to this without me noticing? Onexia looked at Moon Shadow warily and asked two questions. Because he could clearly feel the danger emanating from this little man, and she was a fugitive, and the other four-colored dragons were chasing and killing them.
So even when she was building a nest next to this secret swamp, she had a lot of patrolling sentries around it.
"My name is Moon Shadow Dawn Star, you can call me Moon Shadow. I'm here for you, Onexia. Moon Shadow replied with a smile as she looked at the female dragon's expression in a very funny expression.
"You... you know my name. They sent you? Onexia took a few steps back directly, and when she heard Moon Shadow tell her identity, Onexia immediately thought that this person was definitely sent by several other dragons to arrest her. He took a deep breath and squirted directly at the elf in front of him with a fiery breath of dragon breath.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not here to get you." Moon Shadow's tone was soft and didn't dodge, and the dragon's breath was directly blocked by a purple light shield in front of him, not hurting him in the slightest.
"What are you looking for me for?" Onexia was relieved to hear that she wasn't here to capture her, but she still looked at Moon Shadow warily.
"I need a means of transportation, I wonder if Her Royal Highness the Princess is willing to help?" Moon Shadow said what she meant, her confidence came from strength, and Onexia's strength was only the peak of the eighth order. Although the dragons are epic creatures that are stronger than the rare elites, her strength in front of Moon Shadow is still not enough. To kill her, Moon Shadow doesn't need to use a second move.
"What? You are an insult to me. I won't die as a slave. After hearing Moon Shadow's request, Onexia was immediately furious and wanted to pounce. Joke, she is a dignified black dragon princess, and asking her to be a mount is a great insult to her.
Moon Shadow pointed with his left hand, and a bolt of lightning suddenly jumped out of his body and turned into a chain. Before Onexia could react, the chains made of lightning bound her tightly. No matter how much she struggled, it didn't help.
