In the darkness of night, Kalia appeared at the edge of the Elwyn Forest.

The cold moonlight shone on her, dragging a long shadow behind her.

The former princess of Lordaeron, now the sister of the Lich King Arthas, and a woman who had disappeared from public view in Azeroth for many years, received a message from the north and appeared here.

In the darkness of the woodland, she came to a giant tree and looked up to see its massive canopy.

On the branches, an owl was staring at her, its yellow-orange eyes glowing in the dark night, like a ghost.

Kalia raised her hand, and the owl landed lightly on her hand, rubbing her head affectionately.

"It's been a long time, little Ben, do you have any news for Lord Fa'o to bring to me?"

The owl rubbed against her affectionately, and there was a "woo-oo-oooo

Then a shadow hidden in the darkness appeared behind the two of them.

"Good evening, Your Highness Kalia."

Kalia was stunned for a moment, then turned around in surprise and recognized the identity of the dark shadow.

"Lord Fao, why did you come to Stormwind?"

The figure in the darkness smiled, and his hoarse voice seemed very kind, "Let's take a look at your condition, and by the way, check your study progress to see if you have abandoned your studies." ”

Kalia said confidently, "Of course, I am not wasted, but I work very hard, and every day I study the knowledge taught by you, without any slackness." ”

As she spoke, she waved her hand softly, and the power of pure holy light appeared in her hand, radiating a warm glow in the night.

However, looking at this warm holy light, the figure in the darkness subconsciously took a step back, avoiding the light of the holy light. It seems to be a little afraid.

Standing in the darkness and looking at the warm light in Kalia's hand, his tone sighed and missed, "Holy light...... You have studied hard, Your Highness Kalia. At your age, none of Benedictas can compare to what you are today. Obviously, Your Highness Kalia, your talent is far beyond ordinary people. Enviable. ”

Hearing the figure mention the name of the Archbishop of the Holy Light, Kalia's expression darkened, and something came to mind.

"Lord Fao, Lord Benedictas, he ......"

"Ah, I know, Benedictas betrayed the Light."

The figure in the darkness calmly interrupted Kalia's words and whispered, "I already know about him joining the Twilight Hammer Cult and becoming a Deathwing minion. ”

Kalia was stunned. Some consternation, "You...... How could you ......"

"How would I know? Right? ”

The figure in the darkness smiled complicatedly and said, "After all, it is the old immortal Fao, and it is not difficult to find out some secret things. Don't always think of me as an antique, even if I become an undead, I can still do a lot of things. ”

Kalia bowed her head in shame and apologized in a low voice. "I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean that. ”

The figure in the darkness smiled and said, "Don't be sorry, Kalia, you didn't do anything wrong. After all, no one could have predicted that I would become an undead. ”

"Even Alsace, which indirectly caused all this. But I am afraid that I know nothing about my resurrection......"

The expression on Kalia's face froze.

"Big ...... Adult ......"

She looked at the old man's figure in the darkness, her gaze evading, "Do you already know......

"Do you mean that Alsace came to see you not long ago?"

Kalia looked guilty, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hide it from you. ”

The figure laughed, "Why apologize?" Kalia, you're just reuniting with your brother after a long absence, so there's no need to tell me, right? ”

In Kalia's stunned gaze, the figure in the darkness smiled and said, "After all, he didn't come to see you as the Lich King when he saw you. Since it's just a reunion between siblings, why should I interfere? There's no reason, you say, right? ”

Kalia looked at him gratefully and thanked him softly, "Thank you, Lord Fao. ”

The figure in the darkness laughed and asked about something else, "How's Regg's condition?" Has it been getting better lately? ”

Kalia's expression darkened, and she didn't speak.

So the figure in the darkness understood something, and sighed with some regret, "That's ......"

He looked at Kalia under the big tree, and looked a little sad, "First Kaidi and them, and now Regg...... Eh...... Is the infection of the plague really so terrible? It was completely incurable. ”

Looking at Kalia, who bowed her head and was silent, the figure in the darkness was speechless for a while, and could only sigh softly, "In that case." Then you can spend the last days with him, Reg will definitely hope to be able to walk the last road with you. ”

Kalia nodded, "I know. ”

After a pause, she suddenly spoke, "When the matter here is over, I'm going back to help you." ”

The figure in the darkness smiled, noncommittal, "Naozu has been killed by His Highness Arthas, and now you can be regarded as revenge, in fact, there is no need to get involved in these grievances." But if you insist...... I...... I've discussed with Prophet Velon, and for the time being, I'm going to focus on Twilight's hammer first, and I have to stop their power from swelling. ”

"If this side is over, you can come to the north to find me, we need your strength."

"However, under the current circumstances, our identities still need to be kept secret and cannot be exposed to the public eye for the time being. After all, the current situation in Azeroth is too complicated. ”

Kalia nodded slightly, in understanding.

The figure in the darkness looked up at the sky, sighed, and said suddenly.

"It's almost time, and it's time for me to leave."

"If you have the next chance to meet His Highness Arthas, persuade him."

"The plan he's been working on lately is so sad."

"If the last bloodline of the royal family of Lordaeron is severed, His Majesty Minethil will be very sad."

The figure in the darkness whispered these words, and disappeared into the night without a sound.

Kalia under the tree was stunned for a moment, and when she tried to speak again, she could no longer find any trace of the old man.

And the owl on her shoulder flew away at some point, leaving no warmth behind.

Standing in the cold moonlight, Kalia looked dazed.

"Al's Plan ......"

"What's that?" (To be continued......)
