Chapter 16: Nozdorm Appears
Maybe it's because the Night Elves have a near-eternal lifespan, and time is the least important thing for them. 30 years is just a snap of a finger for all elves, and Moon Shadow's daily life is very regular. Waking up from meditation in the morning, he would practice the ways of a warrior in the company of his guards, and then during the day he would study some magic. Moon Shadow's progress on the path of a warrior was not very fast, but twenty-nine years of non-stop hard work had also allowed him to touch the threshold of a high-level warrior. But just like that, both of his guards said that his talent was the best they had ever seen.
However, he has improved a lot in terms of magic, and under the careful guidance of Azhara, Moon Shadow has made rapid progress, breaking through the High Mage in the twenty-fifth year of his arrival in Aisaline, becoming the youngest sorcerer in the history of Kadore. No elf has ever been able to obtain this title before the age of a hundred, and only a few mages and archmages are more powerful than magicians, and these people are generally the upper nobles of the night elves, lords and other old guys who have lived for tens of thousands of years. For a while, Moon Shadow became famous and became a genius known to the entire upper elves.
On the bridge of the Angry Water River stood a young male elf with a white nightblade leopard, dressed in a white magic robe. Her long silver hair reaches to her waist and is very flowing. Pretty as a silver spray in the breeze, he was looking at Essaryn affectionately, his green eyes glittering. This is Moon Shadow, who has already made a name for himself in the upper echelons, and he has grown a lot in terms of appearance in the past thirty years. There is less childishness and more maturity on the face. The figure has also grown a little taller, and after years of cultivation of the way of warriors, it has also become much stronger.
After looking at it for a long time, Moon Shadow sighed and walked in the direction of Ash Valley, and the white nightblade leopard beside him roared and immediately followed in the footsteps of his master. Leaving Essarine Moon Shadow was a little emotional, he had lived in this world for thirty-three years, and nearly twenty-nine of them had spent in this city, which could be said to be the place where he lived the longest, and he was used to life in this city. Although it was only a short period of time, it was a little embarrassing.
Walking on the familiar road, Moon Shadow couldn't help but think of Mavi, although they lived in the same city, they had only met once in the past twenty-nine years. It was nine years ago that they met each other because of the moon god festival once every century, and the two sides separated for their own reasons without saying a few words. After making a gesture, the white Nightblade Leopard roared and obediently lay on the ground, Moon Shadow turned over and rode on the white Nightblade Leopard's body, touched its fur, and the big cat roared and ran. The Nightblade Leopard, about the size of a buffalo, was a gifted to Moon Shadow by his mentor, Queen Azhara, when he was leaving. The Nightblade Panther has been a friend of the Night Elves since ancient times, their best companion, and you can treat it as a good listener in normal times, and can also help in battle at critical moments. Due to its agility and stamina, the Nightblade Panther has been trained to be the best mount for Night Elves when navigating the forest.
Nightblade Leopard was very fast, and it took less than ten days to reach the Broken Wood Outpost, a distance he had traveled to Mavi for a full twenty days. The Broken Wood Outpost is slightly larger than the Maestra Outpost, and it is five days' journey to the Hideaway Outpost, which is just a short walk to Felwood. This time, in order not to be confused about the road as when he came, Moon Shadow asked Vasqi for a map this time, which was very detailed, including the entire northern Kalimdor.
Riding on the broad back of the Nightblade Leopard, it is very comfortable, and Moon Shadow has some leisure to browse the scenery on the side of the road. The bears and big cats that passed through here again were no longer his opponents at all, and the Nightblade Leopard under his crotch alone could scare off most of the beasts. This trip is generally comfortable with the tour. Walking leisurely, the Nightblade Leopard under his crotch suddenly stopped and roared forward twice, obviously a little frightened by the sound. Moon Shadow frowned, this white nightblade leopard was an elite creature of the fourth order, what kind of creature could make him so afraid in this gray valley. Moon Shadow touched Nightblade Leopard's back and comforted it. It didn't get much better, though, and its four legs kept shaking.
Moon Shadow frowned and jumped down from the Nightblade Leopard, adding "Arcane Shield" and "Mage Armor" to herself first, looking in the direction the Nightblade Leopard was facing. Moon Shadow's brow furrowed tighter and tighter, he knew that the creature was near, because the big cat was already so frightened that he was prostrate on the ground and covered his eyes with its two paws, and Moon Shadow was a little speechless when he saw it. Finally, a golden vortex appeared in the air, and then a figure walked out of it, and the Nightblade Leopard directly "meowed" like a cat, burying his head in the grass and shivering.
It was a Night Elf man with brown hair. There is an indescribable divine aura on his body. Moon Shadow stared at the visitor with a deep brow, and the other party was watching him.
"Is there anything you're doing in my way?" Moon Shadow asked in a deep voice, feeling that this person was unfathomable and terrifying. Even though he was a sorcerer now, he had no chance of winning.
"You're not one of this plane." The Night Elf looked at Moon Shadow for a moment and then said, with an inexplicable magnetism in his voice.
"What did you say!" Moon Shadow's eyes shrank and she said sharply. It was a secret only for Mavi and Illidan, and they would never tell anyone about it, and he swore that there would never be an eighth person in the world who knew about it. But the person who came revealed his origin as soon as he said it, how could he not be surprised.
"You shouldn't be a person who belongs to this plane, and you still have the seals you left behind when you passed through the plane. But your body and soul are so tied to something in this plane, and I should have sent you back to your world, but it seems that I won't be able to do so anytime soon. The brown-haired Night Elf shook his head, and golden swirls appeared around his body again.
"Who are you?" Moon Shadow couldn't help but shout loudly.
"You can call me Nozdorm, don't worry we'll meet again." After saying that, he disappeared into the golden vortex.
Moon Shadow stared at the place where the mysterious man had disappeared and was silently distracted until a long time had passed. "Nozdom," he whispered the name. He seemed to have heard the name Moon Shadow Eyebrow, but by the way, it was an ancient parchment scroll he had seen in the upper elves' library. The above records are some ancient legends, and one of them has this name in it.
At the beginning of the world, the battle between the Titans and the Elder Gods ended in the defeat of the evil Elder Gods. In order to protect Azeroth from the invasion of darkness, the Titans bestowed their power on five dragons, who are now the guardian dragons: Nesario, the black dragon of the Earth, Alexstasa, the red dragon of life, Malygos, the blue dragon of magic, Isera, the green dragon of Dreams, and Nozdorm, the bronze dragon of Time. The Bronze Dragon King of Nozdorm, the Eternal, has been endowed with the ability to travel through time and space, and with this ability, the Dragon of Time has worked hard to keep the timeline and history of the entire world from staggering greatly. His lair is located in Tanaris, the land of the Golden Desert.
On the way to Felwood, Moon Shadow's mood was much heavier, and he began to think of the scene next to the Well of Eternity meditating into the green space. He didn't know why there was a seed of the world in his body, and he couldn't remember what he had done before. It all started when he woke up one day, and the first thing he saw was Lilith's older sister-like dryad. The ones who helped him the most in his first days were Illidan and them, who gave Lunara his first memories like family.
As it began to darken, Moon Shadow looked around for a place to camp. Occasionally, a figure came into view, and the moon shadow couldn't help but light up in his eyes.
"Hey! Alice. Moon Shadow jumped down from the Nightblade Leopard and beckoned to the figure, an acquaintance who had last crossed the Grey Valley with a dryad named Alice, Lilith's sister.
"Is nature calling?" Alice was stunned and looked around and muttered to herself, but soon she saw Moon Shadow running over with joy.
"Wow! It's you, long time no see! Alice said excitedly as she jumped on her front legs.
"Well, I came to you in accordance with the agreement, didn't you want me to come to the tree house to play with you when I came back again?" Moon Shadow smiled and said with a smile remembering the other party's invitation at that time.
"Well, it's been 30 years?" Alice put her index finger on her lips and said in a daze. Moon Shadow suddenly rolled her eyes, and it was no wonder that she lived in the forest every day, and she didn't have much to worry about, so she basically never counted time.
"Hehe, are you going to find your father?" Alice laughed.
"Hmm," Moon Shadow nodded. "Roar," the white Nightblade Leopard let out a low roar, licking his lips before rubbing his head against Moon Shadow.
"Well, you've got a pet with you! No, I'm going to have to find a stag and keep it by my side every day. Alice looked at the white Nightblade Leopard and said with a frown. Moon Shadow was speechless for a while, such a big target, you just found out, the reaction is really slow.
"What's wrong with that?" Alice asked.
"I guess I'm hungry!" Moon Shadow replied lightly.
"Does it eat fruit?" Alice asked weakly. Moon Shadow rolled her eyes speechlessly. "I'm kidding." Looking at Moon Shadow's expression, Alice laughed happily.
"Come and visit our tree dwelling, there are a lot of beautiful dryads there." Lilith invited.
"I don't think so, it likes meat." Moon Shadow said as she gestured to the white Nightblade Leopard beside her. The dryads are very protective of the animals in the forest, and let them watch the nightblade leopard hunt and eat their prey with bloody faces, and it is estimated that they can't stand it.
"That's it! Then remember to come back to play with me next time. Alice said with a wrinkle of her cute nose. Moon Shadow smiled and nodded.
