Chapter 36: The Choice of the Heart
The matter was eventually resolved, and Sargeras's body and possessions were sealed in the Emerald Dream by Ysera. It's just that Moon Shadow feels that this matter may be far from being so simple, but he can't come to a conclusion for a while where it really is. Saying goodbye to the Dragonlords, Moon Shadow retreated back to the Sacred Mountain of Hyjal, but he didn't enter Cabrais, and after hesitating, he headed northwest into the Moonlight Glade.
Since the disbandment of the Lunar Guard, many of the original members have joined the druids. After the end of the War of the Ancients, the Moonlight Glade became a sacred place for the druids, a place for all druids to gather and communicate; In addition, the demigod Cenarius taught from time to time to solve puzzles, and this map was in full swing. Located on Luna Lake in the middle of the Moonlight Glade, Eternal Night Harbor is the main gathering place for the druids. Moon Shadow closed his eyes slightly, and some thoughts of the past came to him, and the scene where he had studied with Malfurion, Illidan, and Tyrande was still vivid. Now that each of them had their own duties, Tyrande became the High Priest of Kadore. Malfurion and Illidan each have their own aspects to be responsible for, and they carry the burden of the whole of Cadore on their shoulders; Gone are the days of the past.
Avoiding the druid's gaze, Moon Shadow entered Cenarius' dwellings and entered the cavern with ease. When she first came in, Moon Shadow remembered that she was still a little mage who was worried about the name of a demigod, but now she had become another demigod, an existence whose combat power was much higher than that of ordinary demigods. As he thought about it, a rushing figure quickly appeared in front of Moon Shadow, and Moon Shadow smiled faintly at the first sight of her. Because the other party is an old acquaintance, the first humanoid creature that Lunaris has known since coming to Azeroth. Lilith, the son of Cenarius
"Father said that an acquaintance came, but I didn't expect it to be you!" Lilith's face was filled with joy at the first moment she saw Moon Shadow, but then her face darkened and her tone became sour: "Oh, isn't this the great king of the elves?" Why do I have time to come to this small cave today, it really makes me panic. ”
"I'm sorry, I've had a lot going on all the time. So I didn't find time to see you. Moon Shadow said this with apologies in her tone, some excuses that she couldn't say; I was disrupted twice, and when I came back, I thought more about how to remedy it, how I had the leisure to visit my old friends. Having said that, he still owes a lot to this existence like a sister, an existence that has to bow his head no matter how arrogant and noble he is.
"Forget it, my father is waiting for you inside, you go in first." Lilith also knows that Moon Shadow is the lord of a country. So I didn't really blame him; But that's it, it's inevitable that there will be some unhappiness in my heart.
Moon Shadow nodded and turned to walk into the cave hall, where Cenarius was in the middle of the hall. The ten-foot-tall figure is quite formidable, but there is indeed an aura that makes people feel like a spring breeze flowing through him. Moon Shadow squinted slightly, and Senarius's aura told him that the demigod had comprehended a supreme law. It was the law of the forest that Manoen had mastered before, and after his death, Cenarius had lived in seclusion for thousands of years, and it seemed that he had completely mastered it.
After Moonshadow entered the hall, Cenarius gestured and pointed slightly to the stone chair not far away, but Moonshadow shook his head slightly and did not sit down. Cenarius didn't force himself to be cross-legged on the ground, glanced at Moon Shadow and continued, "I heard that you went to dive to cultivate, but what problem did you encounter when you came out so quickly?" ”
"A little." Moon Shadow nodded, soul imperfection was the biggest problem he had ever encountered. Without fusing the soul of the sword spirit, he would have no possibility of going further. However, this was not the reason he had come to the Moonlight Glade, and then Moonshadow spoke again, "There is something I must do, but I don't know if it is the right one, so I want to hear your opinion." ”
"Hehe, what can I say. Actually, you already have a choice in mind when you ask me, right? Even if I give you advice, you will still do what you decide, but it will hinder you. Listen to your inner voice and he will give you the answers. Cenarius shook his head slightly, and then said. Moon Shadow squinted slightly, then sat down on the stone chair in thought. Although he decided, he still had mixed feelings. It's always easier to say than to do.
"What if it's wrong?" After thinking for a long time, Moon Shadow asked Cenarius again, feeling a little lost. But it was absolutely impossible for him to find a complainant about this matter, and he couldn't spit out a lot of random words like a fish in his throat.
"I'm just a demigod like you, not a true god child. We will all be confused, but as long as you stick to the bottom line in your heart, you will not be lost. Cenarius sighed, he was also very confused when he lost his father in the War of the Ancients. Only now he's coming out.
"I see, you're telling me not to abandon that original vision, right?" Moon Shadow nodded slightly, remembering that he had only one hope when he first came to Azeroth, and that was to know who he was. I hope to go on forever with my friends, and get to know Azhara after joining the upper elves. In the end, he found a belonging, and all he has done so far is to protect those determined eyes and warm smiles.
He then bid farewell to Cenarius and left the Moonlit Glade, where the mountains cut off the Moonlit Glade from the Black Coast to the west. Moon Shadow landed in Felwood Forest, walking here again with a slight disappointment. This is his starting point, though the earth is healed and verdant; But more than 10,000 years of vicissitudes have long been unrecognizable. The true Felwood in his heart can only remain in the memories and never return. The long life span left him with many regrets, which he could not achieve in the end.
Jumping into the sky and looking down at the feet, everything became smaller, and everything became blurred in the clouds. Moon Shadow turned his head slightly, locked his gaze on the Black Seashore, closed his eyes slightly, and quickly fell to the seashore. Looking at the newly built Moon Shadow City, Moon Shadow frowned slightly, this city no longer has the glory of 10,000 years ago, and after the cataclysm, the Sea of Mists has become very violent, and this place is no longer very suitable for living. The people who insisted on coming here to live were those who had an inseparable affection for this land, and Moon Shadow disappeared into the city.
The spirit of the citizens was still extremely full, and their smiles were so sincere in such a vicious environment, which made Moon Shadow look a little stunned. Slowly moving forward, he walked towards his destination, the Temple of the Moon God. Compared to the Moon Shadow City, which was first built by magic, the Moon Temple in the new city is extremely shy. The lake at the entrance was the size of a small pond, and there were few decent decorations in the city. The only thing that can decorate this place is the golden oak trees that survived the cataclysm, and Moon Shadow slowly stepped up the steps into the temple, and her figure gradually revealed. Although there were only less than ten steps, far from being comparable to the main hall of the Holy City, which had thousands of steps, Moon Shadow had a hard time walking.
The moment she walked into the temple, Moonshadow's eyelids jumped and she stopped. Mavi's emaciated figure knelt on the ground praying, her back looking so gloomy and lonely. Moon Shadow felt sick in his heart, and when he came back, he knew where Mavi was, he hadn't dared to come here for so many years, just because he had been afraid of it.
Mavi sensed someone behind her, and slowly got up and turned her head. The moment she saw the moon shadow, her face became extremely ugly, and all kinds of emotions of surprise, disappointment, and helplessness suddenly appeared. Moon Shadow closed her eyes slightly and took two steps forward, Mavi took two steps back, and Moon Shadow had to stop. Her two slender eyebrows kept trembling, her two pale blue eyes were full of moisture, and her body kept trembling and clenching her teeth.
"Why are you here?" Mavi stared at Moon Shadow with tears in her eyes, and there was anger in her tone.
"I feel like I have to come, rightly or wrongly, the longer it drags on, the worse it will hurt you." Moon Shadow's chest was a little stuffy, and her eyes were full of apologies.
"Hurt?" Mavi sneered, but a tear had already burst out of her eyes. Then she bit her lip and continued, "You already have an heir, and a queen of stars and moons, the best woman in the whole of Kadore, what am I?" Mavi said with her fists clenched, she was naturally unwilling, but how could she compare to Azhara, the other party wouldn't even look at her.
"I would say we can still be friends." Moon Shadow pauses as he sees that Mavi is already in tears. Gritting his teeth, Moon Shadow turned slightly and didn't dare to look at Mavi's eyes again, and then he said softly: "I love you, I love the whole Kadore and the whole world, but I am the kind of person who is not capable of loving a person alone, I have never loved a woman; To me you are all my friends, no exceptions. Sometimes an accident interrupts a lot of things, but I want to say that I didn't mean to hurt anyone. After saying that, Moon Shadow turned around and slowly walked towards the door, he felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, and gradually his form dissipated in the temple.
"Never, never loved," Mavi stopped her tears as she watched Moon Shadow disappear, and then she began to laugh wildly, looking extremely crazy. (To be continued.) )
