Chapter Seventy-Two: Forbidden
Moon Shadow took a slight sip of wine, and the conversation of several humans caught his attention. In the left-hand corner of the bar, there were several stout men chatting, and it was one of them that caught his attention.
"Have you heard? We've got an elf from Stormwind. One of the humans said, taking a sip of beer.
"Oh, you've heard that, too?" Another human took a sip of wine and continued, "I've heard that the elf's identity is not ordinary. It seems that the son of some military advisor is equivalent to our generalissimo of Stormwind. ”
"Well, yes, I heard that he seems to have fallen in love with our Princess Arya, so he stayed in Stormwind."
"Shhh The human who hadn't spoken looked left and right and reminded.
"It's okay that you're too careful, and if you want me to say that the elf must be dizzy, though the princess is pretty now; However, I heard that the elf is not old, and when the princess is old in a few decades, maybe he will regret his death. The first male human to speak waved his hand and laughed.
"Okay, drink, these have nothing to do with us half a copper coin, we just want to make more money and go home to be happy with our wives and children." The human who proposed to whisper poured a sip of beer and said slightly.
"That's it, drink and drink," the other human next to him also chimed in.
After listening to their conversation, Moonshadow frowned slightly, and it should be the son of Garrod and Santis. It was the first time he had heard of elves and humans in love in this timeline, although there were many instances of this being seen by the High Elves of Quel'Salas in the correct timeline, and two of the three Windranger sisters had been married to humans. However, Moon Shadow doesn't actually support this kind of interracial love, especially between the short-lived race and the long-lived race.
The difference in life expectancy between the two is too much and it is destined to be a tragedy in the end, and the offspring they give birth to is the most embarrassing existence. Elves are very repulsive to half-elves and do not consider them to belong to elves at all; Although human beings are more able to accommodate them because of their beautiful appearance. But it's also very repulsive to their half-elven bloodline. In general, most people have a discriminatory view of half-elves, and they are rarely treated in their entirety. Moon Shadow wonders if he can make laws to stop these things from happening, to stop those tragedies.
Moon Shadow shook his head slightly, he had to bring Garod's son back now, and it would be hard to say what happened after a long time. Moon Shadow closed her eyes and began to feel the magic floating, each elf has its own unique magic fluctuations, and it was not difficult for Moon Shadow to find Gadlow's son Karl. Soon he opened his eyes and disappeared into thin air.
A young girl in the Elwin Forest is riding a giant elk. The long blond hair danced wildly in the wind, and the pale blue eyes were a little happy and a little uneasy. The elk under him looked back at him from time to time, and his very human face seemed to have some smile and comfort, and the blonde girl also smiled slightly, with a happy look on her face.
"Ouch", however, at this moment, an invisible wall seemed to appear in the air, and suddenly knocked the man all the way to his back and turned over on his back, and the elk rolled and instantly turned into a young male elf; Then he hurriedly picked up the girl.
"What's going on, Carl?" The human girl looked at the male elf with some horror in her eyes, and when she got up, she rubbed her arm and obviously fell a little painfully: "It's not my father who sent someone to arrest us, right?" ”
"It's okay Arya, don't worry I'm here." Carl looked at the human girl and gave her a reassuring smile, then he said that his gaze moved to the place where he had been blocked and frowned, and then Carl shouted, "Come out!" I see you. ”
"Really? If that's the case, I'll have to praise you for Gadlow. ”
As the voice sounded, a male elf with long silver hair appeared in the air, and his two green eyes glanced at the human girl and then looked at Carl.
"You are the month. You are His Majesty the Lunaris. Carl glanced at the silver-haired elf, and his face changed dramatically, and his expression was very excited, as exaggerated as a fan finally seeing an idol.
"I am. Your name is Carl, right? Moon Shadow smiled slightly, although this little guy belonged to his juniors, and his parents were very friendly with him; But because he has been too busy since he came back, he has never seen Carl, but after looking at the two of them, Moon Shadow couldn't help but shake his head speechlessly: "I said that your character is like Gadlow or Shantis, who loves to find trouble." ”
"Hehe" Carl couldn't help but smile embarrassedly when Moon Shadow said this.
"Carl, is he here to help us?" Arya saw that Carl seemed to know Moon Shadow, and the other party was also an elf, so she couldn't help but ask.
"Well, Arya, let me introduce you, this is the king of our Kadore Kingdom. His Majesty the Moon Shadow. Carl said as he introduced Arya to Moonshade, who looked at Arya and nodded.
"Elven King? It's true? Arya looked at Karl with a look of surprise and flustered. You must know that none of the humans do not know the Elf King: "It's really rude, Carl, why didn't you say it earlier" Arya heard Carl say that the Moon Shadow was the Elf King, and hurriedly saluted, as a princess of a country, although he was not involved in politics, he had been involved a lot since he was a child.
"It doesn't have to be that way, all men are equal in the laws of the elves, and I am no different from the other elves; You don't have to care. Moon Shadow shook her head slightly, and then Moon Shadow shifted her gaze to Cal, "What?" Wouldn't you like to tell us who this girl is? ”
"Oh Your Majesty, she is" Karl was about to introduce Arya when he interrupted him: "Hello. My name is Arya, and I'm just a normal human. Arya said with a slight wink at Karl.
"Alright, little girl, you don't need to give Carl a look, I know you're the princess of Stormwind, and that can be seen from your costume alone." Moon Shadow smiled as she spoke, and Arya was a little embarrassed. Then Moonshadow looked at Karl, who put away his smile; He continued, "I have no objection to young elves traveling abroad to gain knowledge. But you'd better go back to Kadore for the next time; As for this Princess Arya, you'd better say goodbye to her and I'll send her back to Stormwind. ”
"This" Karl looked down, then at Arya. Arya also had hope in her eyes, but as a Kadore elf, she couldn't resist Moon Shadow's orders. However, he didn't want to leave Arya, and Carl plucked up the courage to look at Moon Shadow and said, "I'm sorry Your Majesty, can I take Arya back to Cabrath with me?" You know it's like you and Aunt Mavi."
"Carl, you're still young, and you don't know what the long life of an elf means. Human beings have a short lifespan of less than 100 years, and for many druids it is just a little sleep. She will always die, and will you be able to bear the pain of losing your loved one? Moon Shadow said and shook her head; He had lived for thousands of years, and from the time he had fed the Nightblade Leopard, he knew what it meant to pour affection into the short-lived race for the near-eternal elves.
"I didn't think about it that much, but I really liked her, from the first moment I saw her." Carl said and shook Arya's hand, and Arya also looked at Moon Shadow with some pleading in her eyes, "Me too, please help us." ”
"I'm sorry I can't help you." Moon Shadow shook his head, he knew that this precedent could not be set. Otherwise, he will not be able to end up in the future, and he will have no position to judge if something like this happens again.
"I've heard older elves say that the energy of the Well of Eternity has incredible powers. Maybe we can use it to make Arya as eternal as we are, so that our lifespan is almost there. Karl said, looking at the Moon Shadow. However, Moon Shadow's face immediately sank after hearing his words.
"Nonsense! Do you know what the energy of the Well of Eternity means? How can its power be used in such a place, you should know that everything in nature has its own laws, and that humans and us are two different creatures. If you pay attention to the Well of Eternity, then you should think more about how our world was broken thousands of years ago. Moon Shadow frowned, the problem he feared the most was still here. In fact, the real reason why he doesn't want elves and humans to fall in love is this, love can make a person go crazy without thinking about the consequences.
He is afraid that some elves will use the forbidden power after falling in love with human beings, and the energy of the Well of Eternity will infect people's hearts; And it is more likely to be polluted by the darkness in the user's heart. Then there may be a repeat of the last time the upper elves were used by Sargeras. (To be continued......)
