According to the jailer's account, Moella, who has since been imprisoned, has remained silent and calm as she listens to traitors and enemies outside the bars discussing and deciding her fate, as well as facing the royal family and the emissaries sent by Stormwind to persuade her to surrender.

The author of Star Eternal speculates that the former princess and current union leader, who is in her fifties, must be thinking about that distant afternoon when she first met her lover Dargran Sorison many years ago.

That was around the 4th year of Stargate, during World War II. At that time, the orc revolt that swept the eastern continent destroyed half of the alliance countries, and these slave rebels from the alien world not only severely damaged the old order, but also spread the mortal spell casting system and magic engineering technology of the Burning Legion, as well as the idea of freedom and equality;

The Black Iron Dwarves took the opportunity to join the Brute Hammer and join the Orc Rebel Army for the first Kazmodan Liberation Movement. With the help of Burning Legion operatives, they built militia units, created battle golems and engineering machines, and ousted the Copperbeard tribe's large landowners and bourgeoisie, and for a time controlled the entire area east of Lokmodan.

Twenty years later, the Second Liberation Movement almost completely replicated this action and line. It's just that at that time, the commander of the Orc Alliance, Orgrimmar, did not choose to attack the fortified Iron Fort out of strategic considerations, but sent an envoy to sign a truce with the Copperbeard Royal Family, and led the main army to continue north to march north to the port of Minethir;

The commander believes that the enemy is strong and we are weak, so he can only take advantage of the fact that the Terrans have no time to defend, build a fleet to make a detour by sea, and attack the northern hinterland of the alliance by surprise, so as to have a chance to completely disintegrate the Titan ruling order in the Eastern Continent.

Although the Black Iron Patriarch Sorison was very disappointed by this, in order to take care of the overall situation, he still put aside the feud with the Copperbeard Ruler for the time being, and stayed in East Kazmodan to guard the rear of the rebel army.

The miners formed trade unions, improved the means of production, and worked to improve the living standards of the vast number of low-caste people in the liberated areas. At the same time, weapons and ammunition were forged to provide logistical support to the rebel army.

At this time, the Iron Furnace Fort, which was already a frightened bird, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the orc army had no intention of attacking him. Regardless of being a nominal Union State, he hurriedly announced that he would abide by the contract; In order to curry favor with the orcs, they also constantly sent convoys to reward the orc troops passing by.

On that snowy afternoon, a convoy of sheep from Ironforge Fort bound for the Roquemodan Labor Army was trapped in a blizzard near the South Gate Passage along with a rescue team of Black Iron Tribal miners. This season, Danmoro is under the influence of elemental spirits, and the storm is constant all year round.

Although a truce has been signed, centuries of deep hatred can not be dissolved in a moment. It just so happened that the destination was the same, and along the way, the dwarves of the two tribes sneered at each other, scolding and fighting;

In particular, a young girl with blond hair and golden eyes in the Copperbeard team and a sturdy young man with a thick beard in the Black Iron team did not like each other, and they had been arguing and laughing at each other since they met, so they almost started directly.

As they pass through a small town called Amber Town, they are suddenly hit by a rare large-scale avalanche that buries several farms in the mountains near the town.

Teenage girls and youths climbed the mountain to rescue the trapped people, but as the storm intensified, they were separated from the team in the snow.

Both young men are extraordinary, and neither of them will give in. The Black Iron Youth skillfully piloted the Golem and excavated the buried villagers' houses, while the Maiden used magic to blast away the snow and fallen wood and stones.

Just as the two rescued many villagers and were about to return to the town, an even bigger avalanche struck. This is clearly not an ordinary storm, in the wind and snow, the shadow of a giant elemental creature is faintly revealed.

At the critical moment, the two cooperated with each other, the girl launched a powerful hurricane technique to send the golem to fly up the mountain, and the young man chiseled through the blasting point to arrange explosives, blasting the boulder on the top of the mountain. Eventually, the storm elemental was buried by the pouring debris, the avalanche was blocked in the mountain pass, and the village and hundreds of civilians were saved.

However, just as the girl who was cheered by everyone wanted to high-five and celebrate with the young man who had returned with a calm face, he dodged her hand and walked to the side without saying a word.

Soon after, after joining the approaching team, the young man suddenly ordered his men to surround and disarm all of the Brastackers. And used a shock device to stun the girl who didn't know what was going on and tried to resist.

Previously, the hurricane spell used by the maiden was not ordinary natural magic. In this world, high-level earth, storm, flowing water, and lightning magic is known as shamanism, and only faction leaders are qualified and capable of wielding it. This is all too clear for young people. In addition, due to lack of strength, the girl took out a high-grade magic crystal with a royal insignia, which further exposed her identity.

After interrogating the retinue, sure enough, the girl was the heir to the throne of Ironforge, Princess Moira Copperbeard. As an adult, she was very curious about the rumored orcs and rebels, so she took advantage of the unpreparedness of the palace guards and quietly infiltrated the labor convoy.

After waking up, the princess was taken to the leader of the miners by the militia guards. The proud Crown Prince's maiden was not afraid, and said to the young man in front of her, who was buried in repairing the golem, "Only people of the same rank are qualified to speak to me and take me to your king, Dagran Soreson." ”

Then the young man wiped the sweat from his forehead with his oil-stained hands, and replied without raising his head, "I am Dagran." But we don't use that title anymore, and I'm now the president of the Mining Committee. ”

Princess Moira looked at the young man in front of her in surprise, and couldn't believe that this person was the rumored murderous, tyrannical and cruel Black Iron Demon King;

Originally, in addition to being angry with her father, she also heard some bad comments about the copperbeard royal family and praise for the rebels; With her upright personality, she plans to verify it with her own eyes.

The young man in front of him was the head of the same clan as his father, but he looked like an ordinary worker. not only personally participated in the labor, but also had intimacy with his subordinates and civilians, without any shackles; He has also been engaged in mine rescue operations at the risk of his life. It's very different from what I know.

At this time, Dagran's heart was also tormented, and he did not dare to look directly into Moira's eyes.

When he was a child, he watched the Copperbeard royal family kill his parents who were the patriarchs with lightning in order to suppress and insult the Black Iron Clan, because of a little trumped-up crime; He has also been reduced to the world, and has experienced hardships, and for many years he has witnessed the low-caste dwarves being exploited and oppressed by the royal family in every way, and the people are struggling to make a living.

So when he saw Moira using shamanic magic representing the royal family, he couldn't control it and almost killed her on the spot.

However, the descendants of the blood enemy in front of her, her eyes were so bright and shining. Looking back, many of the quarrels between her and Dagran were that Moira genuinely believed that the king should ask for his life for the people and sacrifice for the country. When the people were in trouble, she rushed forward without hesitation. In the end, it was also because of the rescue that the identity was exposed.

Dagran couldn't be relentless. It stands to reason that the capture of the enemy crown prince, even if he is harmed out of hatred due to the inconvenience of the armistice agreement, it is completely reasonable to use him as a hostage in exchange for a high price from the royal family;

But the honest miners' leaders eventually decided that the young Moira had not yet participated in politics and could not be said to have nothing to do with the crimes of the royal family, at least not directly responsible; And in this incident, she made a lot of contributions to the rescue of the village, and she should not be embarrassed by reason. So he ordered the princess to be released directly along with all the convoy owners.
