Chapter 72: Original Sin and Suspicion
The chaos of the outside world is a series of events that have nothing to do with Quel'Thalas.
Since the High Elves have returned to the closed life of the past, the pioneering spirit that was not very strong has completely disappeared.
Self-sufficient, behind closed doors, meditating on all kinds of obsessive arcane magic, and the mundane things in the outside world have nothing to do with him.
The beautiful and elegant Silvermoon City is still singing and dancing, the elven nobles hold all kinds of elegant banquets or drinking parties for three days, and the mages are leisurely teaching their apprentices on the open-air podium by the lake, facing the pleasant breeze.
But Aurelia and her Windranger Ranger troop aren't having a good time.
The Silvermoon Council had decided that she had been in close contact with the Night Elves, and while this was true in some ways, Aurelia had never done anything to betray the High Elves.
However, the lawmakers didn't think so, and even the Sun King Anastrian began to guard against her.
This distressed Aurelia as she wondered why the elves of the same origin had become enemies.
This principle is also very simple, everyone is not sure whether it will become an enemy or not, but what is certain is that you Aurelia is on the side of the Night Elves, even if it is not now, it will be in the future.
Why? Because the Titan Lord Sarodar has taken a fancy to you!
If the Lord wants you to be a god, he asks you if you want to leave, and if you don't leave, Quel'Salas will have to send you away.
The Sleeping Tower, the lair of the Titans, is in the continent of Kalimdor, in the core capital region of the Night Elves, which is very revealing, isn't it?
Then if you go to the Night Elves, with the brainwashing skills of the Sarodar Divine Venerable, I am afraid that within a year, you will have to die for the Night Elves.
Look at what the group of upper-class elves in Surama have now been brainwashed and washed into, and even the pride of the nobility that has been inherited for countless years has been thrown into the depths of the Endless Sea.
There is also the Night Elves as a whole, which is completely the hall of the gods of Sarodhar, and the brainwashing is called a thorough.
So... Why can't we guard against you, Aurelia?
Silvermoon City thought so, and Aurelia in the Tower of the Windranger turned from distress to worry.
The logistics of the entire Ranger force are becoming more and more tight, and it goes without saying that the weapons of the bow and arrow type have not been completely replenished for a long time.
Even food and daily consumables are now beginning to be restocked, and while the rangers can hunt on their own and never starve, the elves are far less resilient than humans, preferring a comfortable and elegant life.
The purpose of the Silvermoon Council in doing so is also clear.
Either hand over the power of the army, or everyone take a step back, and your Windranger family agrees with us to install our men in the Ranger force to dilute the power.
Why? We, the Windrangers, are loyal to the court of the Sunseeker, and have always guarded the borders of Quel'Salas without complaining.
It's just because of all kinds of suspicions, and because we don't have the enemy of trolls, we did something wrong to suppress the rangers like this!
Aurelia is kind-natured and doesn't like politics or bloodless fighting, so she'll never understand it.
Sometimes suspicion is more lethal than conclusive evidence.
Even if you are loyal, you still hold the power of the army, and the separation of power from Silvermoon City is a sin in itself.
The Arathas Empire is a lesson from the past, and the High Elves are not blind to this.
Although Aurelia is kind and kind, she is not a saint, and even though she is very strong-willed, her closest sister Sylvanas complains and scolds her in her ear every day, which makes her think differently from time to time.
"Sister, it's not a way to go on like this at all, those bastards in Qingfeng Village send people to guard Yangfan Harbor every day, I've been to reconnoitre, and the lawbreaker troops in Silver Moon City have appeared, and the Night Elves can't send in even if they want to send supplies!"
Sylvanas leaped lightly onto the terrace on the second floor of the tower, where Aurelia would love to stay when she wasn't on a mission.
"We can't receive supplies from the Night Elves anymore, we were already suspicious of that, and now that the entire territory is blocked, if we continue to receive supplies, it will cause even more serious consequences. Aurelia shook her head and replied.
"Don't be stupid, you're loyal to Silvermoon City, but people don't think so... I've heard that many councillors are now proposing to the Sun King to take advantage of the current predicament of the Ranger Force and take advantage of the opportunity to plant their men in our Ranger Force, and if that were the case, we wouldn't even be able to protect ourselves!"
Aurelia frowned at this.
It's not that he clings to the power and doesn't let go, but the Windranger must not be controlled by the group of nobles who hold banquets, or those mages who procrastinate and do not hurry.
The Ranger relied on his fast mobility, and let those people command blindly, and the level of Yongge Forest's Wei Ge was not half of it, but at least a third of it had to be delayed.
Aurelia was eventually persuaded by her sister Sylvanas.
If they sit back and wait for death, then they really can't even protect themselves.
And not to mention those great righteousness and truths, let's just say that once the Ranger unit is lost, the Windranger family is like fat on the board, anyone can come and take a bite.
But... Yangfan Port is hopeless, and without the port, how to transport materials?
Sylvanas was confident in this and insisted on keeping it a secret.
This made Aurelia extremely suspicious that her good sister had always maintained a secret relationship with the Night Elves.
At night, a group of slender figures quickly shuttled through the forest, like agile afterimages.
Aurelia galloped along with a dozen elite rangers towards Torvasa in the southern part of the Eternal Song Forest.
Once a small fortress for the Amani trolls, it was now a filthy ruin, and the stench of voodoo still permeated the air for a long time.
It's a voodoo curse left behind by the troll witch doctors, and there's nothing else this cursed area can do but slowly erase the traces of the past through time.
The ruins of Torvassa stood against the sea, with a long cliff coastline behind them, and Sylvanas stood on the edge of the seaside cliff and observed for a moment, then pointed down ahead.
There's a hidden path that gently descends straight to the Endless Sea.
The rangers cautiously descended, and Aurelia was surprised that there was a long stretch of beach hidden beneath the high cliffs, and she was pretty sure that there was absolutely no downhill or beach here.
At night, the beach is empty, except for the sound of waves crashing on the shore.
No, there are still people ... Aurelia was keenly aware of the anomaly.
It was an imperial eagle, but ... Isn't the Imperial Eagle only found in the Northland continent of Northrend?
The Imperial Eagle also spotted the rangers on the beach, and then flapped its wings to end the low hovering and landed steadily.
The giant eagle glanced around the rangers very humanely, and Sylvanas walked up quickly, "You're right, the Silvermoon Council isn't ready to give us the Windranger a way to live, they want to take this opportunity to empty my sister and dilute our power, we need help." ”
The giant eagle nodded, then let out a loud chirp, and its body began to twist and change.
A moment later, a night elf with sharp facial features appeared in front of everyone.
"Hats off, honorable Mistress Aurelia. We're glad you're willing to accept our help, and we're most worried that you'll suspect that we're doing it for some purpose... Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Anka, Ankka's Clawheart. ”
"Why are you all like this, I said that I am not your master mother yet. ”
Aurelia replied with some reluctance.
