28. The separation of the watchmen

The night is never gentle, it is not like the eyes of a lover, the night is cold, it is cruel, it covers the light, it casts a shadow over all the sorrows of the world, as the final end.

The Warden Nasa didn't hide her figure anymore, although the darkness was more tolerant to her now than before, and she could even feel the rhythm of the darkness beating, not just a curtain to hide her whereabouts.

The darkness began to accept her and began to pamper her even more, just after she turned into a monster...

"Nasa!"

A hoarse voice rang out in the darkness on the other side of the island, Mavi. The Song of Shadows and the 2 remaining Watchers appear in the night, and behind Nassar, 4 Watchers infused with the blood of Sarein also appear in the darkness.

The warden saw that his subordinates were safe and sound, and there was a joy in her heart that could not be hidden, but with her keen sense of smell, she could feel the faint smell of blood wrapped around Nasa's body... Not a trace left after slaying an opponent, but a deeper, deeper taste in the bone marrow.

"Don't come here! Hostess! ”

When Mavi tried to get closer, she was stopped by Nassa, and the watcher reached out to block her companion's approach, her body trembling a little, but she still reached out and took off her helmet.

The face did not change, it was still the same beautiful cheeks, but the skin was no longer the lilac characteristic of the Night Elves, it had become fair, and under the effect of the blood of Salein surging in her body, Nassar's skin had become as white as the High Elves, even almost abnormally pale, and her lips had become fuller, as if she had applied lipstick.

The most conspicuous thing was her eyes, which were the color of blood...

"Nassa! You..."

"We've fallen into darkness, mistress."

Nassa said with some bleakness, "The evil blood flows in our veins, it twists our fate and existence, makes us bloodthirsty, and turns us into monsters that only exist in legends. ”

"Don't come near me, hostess... I can't control my inner impulses, I will... I'm going to hurt you. ”

"The monster did it? He's going to pay for it! ”

Mavi clenched the knife wheel in her hand, the hand armor on her palm made a clicking and colliding sound, and between the flicking of the cloak decorated with blades behind her, the whole person disappeared into the darkness silently, but the next moment, Nassa's figure also disappeared into the darkness.

"Bell"

The collision of the two weapons made the hidden warden and Nasa appear at the same time, and the knife wheels of the two collided together, and sparks flew everywhere.

"Don't go! Hostess! ”

A hint of gloom flashed in Nasa's bright red eyes:

"If you kill that monster, we will die together, this curse of blood has bound us to his fate, and he has nothing to fear, and he has a powerful gem in his hand, he may have laid a trap, he may have hurt you!"

"I'm not going to kill him, Nassa, that's too cheap for him!"

Mavi's voice under the helmet said angrily:

"I'm going to keep him and Illidan together, I'm going to watch him torture by that monster, I'm going to spare his life... No one can take you from me... Take away my watcher! ”

"But I can't allow..."

Nassa's cheeks flashed with a hint of hideousness, "That cursed blood makes me not allow myself to sit idly by and watch you hurt him, and although I would love to plunge the dagger into his heart, but... I can't. ”

The Watcher took a step back, her arms and knife wheel obscured by a dark green blade, making her look like a sculpture standing in place in the darkness.

"I can't sit back and watch you continue to take risks for us, how many of the wounds on your body were left to save us, mistress, you don't owe us any favors, on the contrary, we have been living under your protection, and that monster has manipulated my life, but maybe it's not a bad thing... At least we won't be a burden to you anymore. ”

"You've never been a burden! Nassa! ”

Mavi's voice became muffled:

"Together, we make up the Watchmen, no matter who we are, whether it's a veteran or a new recruit, we form this group together, we are companions, we are sisters, we are comrades... I've never seen you as a liability. ”

"But that's what I thought, Mistress."

Nasa looked up, and a hint of calmness flashed across her face:

"But I don't want to be a burden to you, I sympathize with the neglect of the watcher by the Priestess of the Moon of Mount Hyjal, you have supported this group alone for too long, and every night, while you are alone to wrap your wounds, Mistress... Mavi, I'm sorry I can't do anything for you. ”

"Nasa, don't say it..."

Mavi had a premonition of a not-so-good emotional fluctuation, she stretched out her hand, and the two watchmen behind her left silently, Nasa nodded to her companions behind her, and they also silently retreated into the darkness.

"Mavi, please allow me to call you so rude..."

Nassa stepped forward, she stretched out her hand, Mavi's body shook a little, but in the end she didn't dodge, she let Nassa's fingers caress her helmet, and gently took off the intricately carved owl helmet, revealing the warden's long white hair, and the face painted with war paints, this warden himself is actually a beauty.

After all, the priestess who was once the god of the moon did not need to be evaluated in terms of appearance.

"Mavi, that monster has taken my fate, but this loss has also made me finally understand what I have been willing to defend in the lone watcher's cave for thousands of years..."

Nassa's blood-red eyes flashed a hint of forbidden tenderness, she reached out and gently stroked the warden's cheek, her fingers touched Mavi's lips, this action made both of them tremble at the same time, and then, Nasa gently hugged Mavi and whispered in her ear:

"I never went for the glory of Cadore, thousands of years ago, when you saved me on the battlefield, I knew that you were my future destiny..."

"Enough! Nassa! ”

Mavi took a step back and grabbed Nasa's wrist, and she muttered:

"Enough! Say no more... It's taboo ... I, I can't accept it..."

"No, I didn't ask you to accept it, Mavi, I've never had that luxury."

Nassa took a step back, the glow in her eyes calming down:

"I know that you have given everything to Elune, and that you will always be her sincerest believer, but unfortunately, her eyes will always be on Tyrande! It's not fair! It's not fair to you! Mawi..."

A hint of hatred flashed in Nassa's eyes, which shocked the warden, and she grabbed Nassa's wrist with her backhand and scolded:

"Darkness is tempting the negativity in your heart! Nassa, come to your senses! ”

"Seduction? Nope..."

Nassa shook her head and put her helmet back on, her voice muffled again.

"It's not a temptation, Mavi, the cursed blood is flowing in my veins, it's changing me, I can feel it, but it's setting me free... Freedom from the old-fashioned dogma of the moon god made me realize for the first time that there is more to this world than the moon god of Cadore, there are more unknown powers, so I say that this is actually not a bad thing. ”

"I hate Tyrion for taking me away from you."

"But I am also very grateful to him, and only by leaving your shelter can I tell you how I feel... If you need to, Mavi, I'll still be there for you at any time... Tyrion took my fate..."

"Huh"

Nassa's figure vanished into the night, and only her deep, gentle voice reached the warden's ears.

"But my heart will always be with you."

"Goodbye, my Mavi..."

The wind of the night sky blows across the desert island, making Mavi. Now, 10,000 years after the end of the War of the Ancients, for the first time, the Song of Shadows felt a dazed feeling that made her feel helpless, about Nassa's departure, about the forbidden feelings hidden in the child's heart for her, about her bold expression.

All this makes Mavi's heart tremble, she is a priestess, from her birth to the present ten thousand years and hundreds of years, her heart is still pure, she has never had a love of her own, she has no ill feelings towards Nassa, but this kind of same-sex affection, even in the Night Elf society that does not pay much attention to this aspect, is a taboo...

In the end, she could only attribute it to the blood of Salein that Tyrion had infused into Nassa, the curse of that blood, and perhaps, it was this curse that changed Nassa.

"This damn curse!"

Mavi put her helmet back on, and she looked in the direction in which Nassa had disappeared, her fists clenched:

"I'll find a way to lift this curse, Nassa, it's my promise to you!"

However, the Warden did not know that the blood of Sarein could only change a person's physiology, not his psyche, and the dark emotions in his heart could not infect such pure feelings, and Nassa's feelings for her did not begin with the blood of this curse.

"Buzz"

In a creepy way, the Blood Warden appeared beside Tyrion, the Death Knight standing on the edge of a cliff, looking out over the moonlit sea, so calm that it looked like a giant mirror in the moonlight.

It can even take care of people's hearts.

"Did the goodbye go well?"

Tyrion's gaze stared straight at the sea, and he asked in a low voice:

"Did the indifferent warden accept you?"

Nassa's eyes narrowed with a hint of danger, but after a moment, she said coldly:

"I dissuaded the hostess, but she won't give up so easily, be careful when you go to bed in the future..."

"I'm an undead, I never sleep!"

Tyrion shrugged his shoulders and handed the flask in his hand to the Blood Warden behind him:

"I don't have any grudge against you and your companions, especially now that Gul'dan is dead, I want to say that I didn't actually force you to join the Knights of the Darkblade, the blood of Sarein is just a small punishment for you, if you can rely on your will to suppress the urge to draw blood, you can actually go back to your lady."

"And then, in an unsuspecting moment, you took over the body and hurt Mavi?"

Nassa took the flask and took a sip, she wiped the corners of her mouth and sneered:

"Come on, Tyrion, don't pretend to be a good person! Although we have only been together for less than a day, I have seen very clearly what kind of person you are! A creature like you deserves to stay in a dark cell in the Watcher's Crypt for 10,000 years! ”

"Just like Illidan?"

Tyrion asked rhetorically, which caused Nassar to pause in her drinking, causing the elf, who rarely drank, to choke.

"Ahem... Ahem, you, how do you know that name! ”

"I know a lot, Nassa, and you'll know later."

Tyrion thoughtfully handed over a handkerchief, and he looked back at the calm sea in front of him, and said like a dream:

"Actually, you should thank me, Nassa, for saving you the tragedy of eternal death and giving you the opportunity to tell Mavi what is in your heart, instead of burying it in your heart all the time, but I am more curious about what secrets are hidden behind the huge owl statue in your watchman's cave, in addition to imprisoning Illidan?"

"Of course I do!"

Nasa took a sip of wine, her plump lips outlining a smile:

"Every watchman knows what's there... But we just won't tell you! In addition, I have to warn you that the return of thousands of elves to Mount Hyjal today will surely attract the attention of the Priestess of the Moon, and with the speed of the druids around her, it is estimated that you will face new problems tomorrow morning... Druids who worship life don't have a good impression of dead creatures like you! ”

Not "you"! ”

Tyrion turned his head and looked at Nassa:

It's "we"! We're in this group now, my Nassa, and if you don't feel like sleeping, I want you to take on the vigil... I've got to go take a break. ”

"Don't you never sleep?"

"I have to take at least a little time to calm my soul... Especially after knowing that the Knights of the Darkblade have added a new woman who has a crush on the same sex, I have to remind Luminas to be careful when changing clothes..."

"Whoosh"

Nassar's cloak of blades swung up, and two venom blades stabbed into Tyrion's heart with pinpoint precision, and the Death Knight lowered his head and looked at the dagger on his chest, reaching out without feeling and throwing it back to the Watcher.

"Don't stab your heart next time, Nassa, the heart is not fatal to a dead man."

"And welcome aboard, Knights of the Darkblade."
