Just by what happened to the Windranger siblings, you can sense the sinister nature of Quel'Salas's politics.

It is often said that the upper nobility circle of the human kingdom is staging betrayal and conspiracy every day, but compared to the high elves of Quel'Thalas, compared to the intrigue between these immortals, the tricks of the human nobility can only be regarded as pediatric.

The Immortals think differently from humans, and they see things differently from humans. When the Sunstrider led the High Elves to establish Quel'Salas in the northernmost part of the Eastern Continent, there were already two camps in the noble circle of the upper echelons of the High Elves, the royal party and the parliament.

The so-called royal party does not simply refer to the nobles who are loyal to the king, but it really refers to the nobles who support the centralization of the monarchy, the power of the Sunseeker family to rule the divine rule of Quel'Thalas, and strive to make Quel'Thallas a perfect feudal kingdom.

The power of the Royal Party has been very strong for a period of time, and about two-thirds of the high-ranking aristocratic circles in the entire Quel'Salas are loyal members of the Royal Party, and it is worth mentioning that the Dawnblade Family, a difficult archmage family with a difficult inheritance and is currently in a state of extinction, are all loyal middle-level members of the Royal Party under the leadership of the previous family heads.

And aristocratic families like the Dawn Blade, which have been passed down through the ages and have been loyal to the royal party for generations, are almost everywhere in Silvermoon City in Quel'Thalas.

In opposition to the royal party is the parliamentary faction.

Just by listening to the name, you can see that this faction is not satisfied with the rule of the Sunchasers for generations, but the parliamentarians do not deny the existence of the king, in their vision, the king is only the head of state, representing the national symbol and diplomacy, but in the internal management of affairs, the royal power should not interfere too much, but the wisest group of people in this ancient country should use their collective wisdom to run Quel'Thalas.

This view is somewhat deviant, but for those who came from a civilian background and rose to the top of Quel'Salas's management after a long period of ups and downs, the ideas of the parliamentarian faction are more in line with their political aspirations.

Especially those who are gifted and capable, but don't have flashy backgrounds.

The entire Silvermoon Council relied on the twists and turns of public opinion thousands of years ago to successfully take away part of the management of the country from the royal party, and the Silvermoon Council was full of various factions of archmages, between Quel'Thalas's superb magical attainments, and the overwhelming demand for magical power in the entire country, in essence, with the slow passage of time, the power of the parliamentarian faction in Quel'Thalas, has been slowly growing.

The reason is actually quite simple... The nobles of the royal party cannot guarantee the success of every descendant, but the council can select new powers from a vast pool of magical apprentices.

And in the gap between the royal party and the council, there are other rare families in the aristocratic circle of Quel'Salas, which are neutrals, the most famous of which is none other than the Windranger family who commanded the power of the Quel'Salas rangers in the era, in the era of General Liresa, regardless of the inclination of the magic legion, under her strict management, the entire huge army of farfarers has always maintained neutrality between the royal party and the council.

And General Lilesa has cultivated too many excellent rangers in her life, and in the twilight of her life, almost one-third of the middle-level generals of the entire Far Wanderer Legion have to call her a mentor.

In that case, the Windranger family was very important in the whole of Quel'Thalas, and both factions were frantically wooing her, but the general was unmoved, until General Liresa died in battle and Tyrion left the world of Draenor, and in the era when Sylvanas returned to serve as the Ranger General, the actual power of the Windranger family was much less powerful than before.

Just like the words that Liras asked Darkan in anger, if it was General Lilesa who was standing in the Windranger Manor now, would Darkan still dare to openly play this kind of power trick to suppress people?

Of course he didn't dare...

In the time of General Liresa, as long as he dared to show his rat tail, I am afraid that in less than a month, Darkan would be rolled down from his high position as a councillor and sent to the island of the sun to teach the mage apprentices, and absolutely, absolutely, no one would dare to intercede for him.

It's a pity that the strong good mother who can independently support a thousand-year-old family has passed away, and the person who should be the pillar of the next generation of the Windranger family has now set off a dark frenzy that envelops half the world.

But rightly or wrongly, in terms of results, there is no doubt that General Liresa's cultivation of Tyrion has been a success... Tyrion lived up to his adoptive mother's expectations, and he did make a difference...

He is about to send all the lives of the Eastern Continent into the dark abyss that is invisible.

But in Tyrion's eyes, no matter what kind of royal party or parliament, the people who ruled over a mere 2 million people, who had not thought about developing for thousands of years, but were so fiercely infighting, was enough to prove that there were no real wise people in either faction, and in the end, they were just two stupid people who were deeply caught in a power struggle.

Even before he became an undead, if he were asked to comment on Quel'Salas's politics, he would always have only one comment:

"The temple is a small demon with a big wind, and the pool is shallow... Wang Baduo. ”

"Thank you, everyone, for putting aside your business and coming here."

The rearranged Windranger Manor looks unchanged from the outside, but the interior has been filled with all sorts of magical traps from the Archmages of the Silvermoon Council, and the High Elves have always been ahead of human mages in the realm of magical tricks.

And in the manor, Darkan. Councillor de la Heel was presiding over a pre-war meeting with two distinct factions sitting on either side of the table, and the ambush was presided over by the parliamentary faction, but the royal party also sent very important members.

Among them is Prince Kael'thas loyal follower, Ranger Lord Lotherma. Theron, the Prince's Bodyguard, the powerful female Archmage Lady Lannaser, and the Sun King's Chief of Guard, the current wielder of the powerful magical sword Queldra, Salorian. Morning seeker.

But the faces of these important members are not very good-looking, especially Lotherma. Theron, another proud disciple of General Lilesa, did not agree with this risky move, and he and Miss Lannathel were here purely because His Highness was worried that the madmen of the Parliamentary faction would do something too much to the Blood Hostess.

To be precise, the two of them were ordered by Prince Kael'thas to spy on these archmages.

"Put away your hypocrisy, Mr. Darkan."

Compared to Lothama's silence, the Flame Archmage Lannaser was more direct, she herself came from the family of the royal family, and in terms of status, she could be compared to Darkan, she knocked on the table unceremoniously and whispered:

"To be clear, we don't know how you persuaded the Sun King, but Prince Kael'thas is adamantly opposed to your risk-taking actions, and His Royal Highness doesn't think that capturing the Blood Mistress will make the King of the Blades look the other way for Quel'Thalas, in fact, this action is also extremely stupid in my opinion, you are just consuming Tyrion's already little affection for Quel'Thalas... That's all. ”

"What do you think? Uncle Morning Seeker. ”

After saying that, Lannaser handed the conversation to the mouth of the chief of the royal guard who did not say a word, the warrior of Quel'Salas, Lotharian, her family and Lotharian. The Morning Seeker's family is somewhat related by blood, and she considers herself a descendant of the Morning Seeker, and in the face of Lannather's actions, the calm face of the royal chief of the guard just closed his eyes and said casually:

"This is Your Majesty's will, Your Majesty's will must be fulfilled, that's all."

"Mr. Morning Seeker is right!"

Darkan ignored Lannasel's malice, he coughed lightly twice, and said:

"It is His Majesty's will, and it is a great honour for me to be reunited by the threat to the country after thousands of years of disagreement... Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing a scene like this, where Quel'Salas can burst into great power as long as we are united within us. ”

"Under any war and crisis, there are hidden opportunities, ladies and gentlemen, this is what I want to say today, after the Emperor of the Human Empire, Lothar, retrieved the ancestral sword, Quel'Salas was once again tied to the chariot of mankind because of the sacred covenant, I will not comment too much on the full support of the Human Empire, but in my opinion, since we have made sacrifices, we deserve to be rewarded!"

Darkan spread his arms, and his voice reached the ears of everyone in attendance:

"Quel'Salas has been holding on to a corner of the northern frontier for too long, and we can only watch as human beings grow and develop around us, constantly squeezing our living space, anyone with insight can see that this is extremely detrimental to Quel'Thalas's development, but this war has changed everything."

Mr. Councillor said with confidence:

"The Orc War has given everyone food for thought, about the future of nations and races, about the place of the High Elves in the new order, we have closed off our social civilization, and then we found that it is good to do so, yes, both the council and the royal party have made mistakes, our vision is too narrow, it is stupid to fight infighting in the land of Quel'Salas, to consume our own strength, I had a long conversation with His Majesty the King, and His Majesty told me that it was time to change this stupid situation."

"The old order has been crushed by the war, humanity has responded, the reconstruction of the Holy Alaso Empire is a wake-up call for us, we also have to actively participate in it, anyone present is very clear that the undead will not stop at destroying the human empire, Quel'Thalas is their next target, this is what I want to say today, the choice we face!"

"The tide of the undead is surging mightily, in the foreseeable future, the human empire, including us, will not be able to defeat them head-on, to end the war, can only go sideways, under the cover of fate, to find the last hole card to reverse the situation..."

Darkan propped his hands on the table, stared at the people in front of him with a very imposing look, and he said in a deep voice:

"In this case, the presence of the Blood Mother is our hole card, as long as Aurelia . The Windranger is in our hands, and whether Tyrion wants it or not, he has to sit back at the negotiating table! ”

"How do you know?"

The Morning Seeker with the Magical Sword on his back suddenly became interested, and he opened his eyes and looked at Darkan:

"How can you be so sure that Tyrion will have to negotiate with us because of Aurelia?"

A gleam flashed in Darkan's eyes, and he lowered his voice:

"It's... That's what I'm going to say next. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not whimsical, the Council has found remnants of blood magic in the ruins of the battlefield at Daisom, and we've been studying this strange magic for the past few years, and I can now confidently tell you that the creature called Sarein... It was a "gift" from the Creator to the High Elves! ”

After saying this, the audience was shocked, and the eyes of the archmages who were members of the council widened, and Lady Lannassel directly sarcastically said:

"You're crazy, aren't you? Darkan, that monster-like power, you call it a "gift"? ”

"But it is!"

Darkan coughed lightly, he snapped his fingers, and a shadow hidden in the darkness slowly walked out, standing in front of everyone, he was wearing a scarlet cloak, his cheeks were emaciated, and his eyes were surging with blood, but he didn't have much wisdom, like a work.

"I've cracked the secret of Salein... Ladies and gentlemen, this is my first "work". ”

Darkan glanced at the silent blood elf behind him, and he whispered:

"In my current research, of all the living beings that exist in this world, only the High Elves of Quel'Salas have the possibility of transforming into Salein! Do you understand? Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a curse, this is the power that exists in our bodies! We have enough ability, as well as enough qualifications to use it! ”

"We should use it too! The capture of the Blood Mistress will allow us to better understand the secrets of Sarein, after all, she is the most powerful Salein in the world in existence outside of Tyrion... And, most importantly..."

A faint glint flashed in Darkan's eyes:

"You probably don't know... There is a mysterious link of life between Sarein and the Blood Servant..."

"If one dies, the other dies... Even if you are lucky enough to escape death, you will suffer an absolute heavy blow at the soul level! And I just happened to know... Aurelia. The Windranger is Tyrion. One of the few Blood Servants transformed by the Dawn Blade himself. ”

She is the "treasure" of his life that he must take care of with everything, hehe, this is not just a sentimental description. ”
