8. Nightmare. origin
Nightmare, about this new force that seems to have only appeared in the Emerald Dream in recent years, even the deer helmet who is most familiar with the Emerald Dream doesn't know much, this huge and powerful force seems to have appeared overnight, and the guardian green dragons of the Emerald Dream were caught off guard.
But in Tyrion's eyes, he knew the details of the nightmare force, and the reason why the Great Lord wanted to postpone the Dark Blade's punishment war against the Night Elves until now was to wait for the great black hand force of the Emerald Dream Realm to start acting, and then use a war to settle two troubles at once.
As for the origin of the nightmare, it is necessary to start with the World Tree Nordasil.
Known as the "Crown of the Firmament", this large tree is a symbol of the Night Elf civilization.
The tree was eventually planted to cover Illidan. The second unfinished Well of Eternity secretly created by the Windwinds in Mount Hyjal, where the elves and dragons who had just experienced the terrible Battle of the Ancients feared that the Well of Eternity would lead to a terrifying future of demons, and they tried to destroy the second Well of Eternity with a special method, and Nodashir was the method that the druids eventually adopted.
However, the seed of Nodashir did not come from the druids, in fact, this magic seed was provided by Alexstrassa, the Oath Bound of Life, and the Red Dragon Queen tossed the seed into the second unfinished Well of Eternity under the watchful eyes of the Night Elves, and then the three dragon kings of Alexstrasa, Ysera, and Nozdorm bestowed supreme blessings on Nodashir, who was rooted in the Well of Eternity.
The Red Dragon Queen bestowed life force on Nodashir, giving the World Tree unparalleled vitality and energy, and the Lord of Time, Nozdorm, channeled his power throughout the trunk and branches of Nodashir, ensuring that as long as the World Tree existed, the Kadore Night Elves would be immortal.
Ysera the Awakened bestowed the blessing of the Dream on the World Tree, which was also Ysera's blessing for Kadore's heroic performance in the Battle of the Ancients, and since then, Nodashir has been closely connected to the Emerald Dream, becoming the largest and most important node of the Emerald Dream in the present world.
Before the War of the Ancients, druids needed to have a high understanding of the way of nature if they wanted to enter the Emerald Dream Realm, but after planting in Nodashir, any druid could easily enter the dream world and learn the essence of the way of nature through the connection between the World Tree and the Emerald Dream Realm.
However... Ysera the Awakened did not expect that the blessing she had given to the Night Elves would send her and her Green Dragon Legion to hell one day 10,000 years later.
Speaking of which, the appearance of the Nightmare of the Emerald Dream between the 16-18 years of the Dark Gate, the initial cause of the large-scale riot, and the original origin of the Nightmare Legion are also related to the Grand Druid Deer Helm... Even though that was 4,500 years ago, even though the Great Druid himself was on the verge of forgetting it, even though it was not the Great Druid's intention, he didn't even know the connection between the two events.
During the War of the Ancients, the explosion of the Well of Eternity tore apart the world, and also caused a rift in the seal set for the Elder Gods by the Titan Guardians of the Ancient Era, and the reactivation of Cthun, Enzos, and Yog-Saron, the three Elder Gods who are still in the world, began after the explosion of the Well of Eternity.
The dark, corrupt and twisted power of the Elder Gods spread from beneath the layers to the surface, forming many strange things over the course of thousands of years, and 4,500 years ago, in the northernmost continent of the world, Northrend, as well as Kalimdor and the eastern continent, there was a special mineral like blue crystal, which was widely distributed and continuously drew life force from the local flora and fauna.
This particular circumstance soon alarmed the Senarion Council, the most powerful mortal organization in the world at the time. Fury Wind has been sleeping in the emerald dream for a long time to learn the ways of nature, and the daily affairs of the Cenarion Council have been entrusted to Malfurion's great disciple Deer Helmet, who was a very responsible druid at the time, and after identifying the strange minerals that have appeared around the world, the Deer Helmet immediately took action.
The druids at the time were unaware of the existence of the Elder Gods, but that didn't stop them from discerning the cold, corrupt energy that was abundant in those minerals, and the Deerhelm believed that the World Tree Nodashir could protect Mount Hyjal from such a mineral, which meant that it could also be used to heal the evil minerals of other regions.
At that time, the rate of growth of this evil mineral, known as the "Evil Iron of Saron", was so rapid that the Deer Helm didn't have time to ask the hidden dragons for advice, and he couldn't waste any time, once these evil minerals continued to expand, it would probably affect the entire world.
Therefore, under the leadership of the deer helm, the druids took six branches from the branches of the World Tree Nodashir, and inserted them into the six areas most affected by the Saron Evil Iron, the Ashen Valley and Firas in Kalimdor, the Twilight Forest and Hinterland in the Eastern Kingdom, and the Crystal Song Forest in the Northrend Continent, in these five regions, when the branches of the World Tree were inserted into the earth and catalyzed, the pure power of the Emerald Dream penetrated into the earth along the branches of the World Tree, and the disaster of the Saron Evil Iron was quickly suppressed, The Druids' confidence was greatly boosted.
They put the last, and thickest, branch into the snowy mountains of Northrend, in the valley where the Evil Iron of Salong was most severe, in the middle of what is now the Grizzly Hills, and the branches of the World Tree grew rapidly after taking root, and almost in a few days, it grew into a real towering tree, and the calamity of the Evil Iron of Salon here was purified as if it were a miracle.
The druids proudly called it "Andahir", which means "crown of ice", and they thought that this thriving giant tree would shelter this snowy land like Nordasil, but the good situation lasted less than 50 years, and all the creatures in the land around Andasil seemed to start a frenzied battle overnight, and the war was extremely terrifying, from the warm yak people, to the huddled bear people, and even the viku and wolverine.
When the druids got the news and rushed here, they saw Andahir, red with blood... It was the dark power that was born within the tree that caused this terrible war, and the druids did not know why, they could only believe that the World Tree was vulnerable to the dark without the blessing of the dragon.
With grief, the druids cut down Andahir, which had been completely polluted by a mysterious force, and it is said that the scene when the giant tree collapsed shook the entire continent of Northrend, and the stump left by Andasir in the snow and ice was called "Vodashir", the crown of shattering.
The tree that started the brutal war was cut down, and the druids thought that was the end of it, but it didn't... They forgot one thing.
Ysera blessed the World Tree, so that every branch of the World Tree could be connected to the Emerald Dream, and Andahir was prompted by the branches of the World Tree, that is, this tree can also connect to the Emerald Dream, and in the place where it took root, all the way down, into the darkness below, there is an ancient evil thing, which is the ancient god imprisoned by the Titans, the Thousand Throats Demon Yog Saron.
Andahir was contaminated because he was rooted too deep and came into contact with Yug-Saron's lair, and after it was cut down, the passage to the Emerald Dream that it left behind also fell into the hands of Yug-Saron, but the cunning Thousand-Throated Demon did not immediately use this "killer weapon" against the druids and the green dragon, instead, it waited quietly, sprinkling the seeds wrapped in dark power in the vast Emerald Dream Realm.
Therefore, it can be said that the strange thing such as the nightmare did not appear recently, it appeared as early as 4,500 years ago, and it has only been hidden under the peaceful and perfect background of the Emerald Dream.
For thousands of years, trapped thousands of meters below the northernmost point of the world, Yug Saron has been secretly observing the Emerald Dream, and it needs a chaos to strengthen its influence here, and it has set its sights on the souls of the wild demigods who have been placed in the Emerald Dream, as Rukma said, Yug Saron has tried to corrupt it, but because of Rukma's special form, Yug Saron's corrosion has failed.
And the poor and unlucky Usok did not escape this catastrophe in the end, and it became the first Mars of Yug Saron to disturb the Emerald Dream, especially after the death of the demigod Cenarius, Yug Saron's activities in the Emerald Dream became more and more rampant, which directly attracted the attention of another ancient god, Enzos saw the victory of his "companion", and this conspirator under the deep sea couldn't help it.
With the help of Queen Azhara, Enzos successfully pushed his own power into the chaotic Emerald Dream, and the already mysterious Nightmare camp became even stronger.
Compared with Yug Saron, who came here earlier, Enzos's advantage is that he has an assistant under his command who is extremely familiar with the civilization of the Night Elves, and this assistant's cruel and vicious personality also makes Enzos value it very much.
The man who came to the Emerald Dream Plane on behalf of Enzos is the commander of all the nightmare monsters that currently belong to Enzos, and under his command, the Green Dragon Legion, the demigods and druids who came to support him were defeated one after another, and this self-proclaimed Nightmare King, the madman who tried to turn the entire Emerald Dream into a Nightmare Demon Realm has an elegant Kadore name.
It, as it calls itself ... Savis.
—————————————————————————
"Well, this soul almost tastes..."
In a fortress in the dark red world of the Emerald Dream Realm, which had been overrun by the Nightmare Legion, a well-dressed upper-class elven nobleman sat at the edge of a sumptuous feast, his elegant fork picking up a twisted soul and looking at it in front of his eyes.
A hint of displeasure flashed in the blood-red eyes of the upper elf, and he said to the nightmare knight standing beside him:
"Look at him, he's a druid, the kind of thing that's strong-willed, full of crazy ideas to protect nature, and when it's impossible to do anything, they tend to sacrifice themselves for their "sacred" ideas, and in spite of his terrible torture, the despair of this soul is too light, and you should let him really experience despair..."
As he spoke, the well-dressed fellow stretched out his bright red tongue and licked it on his lips, and he threw the soul back on the plate, and he said:
"That sweet, cherry-like despair, with a hint of bitter pain, and a little madness like honey, and then steamed in a soup called depravity, until the soul is thoroughly washed away from disgusting beliefs, and then sprinkled again with the spices of lust and greed..."
He put down the fork in his hand and waved his hand in disgust, and the nightmare knight beside him immediately brought the howling soul off the table, and the upper elven nobleman took a glass of blood-colored liquid and walked into the shadows of the hall, where a poor figure covered in whip marks was wrapped in chains.
The nobleman stretched out his fingers and lifted the prisoner's scarred face, and then poured the cold liquid in his hand on the prisoner's face to sober him up, and he whispered in his ear:
"I like to pair it with some fine wine called lust and gluttony, and enjoy this meal to lazy depraved music, which brings a little peace to my heart full of anger and jealousy, and I like that peace... Do you like it? Malfurion, my old friend..."
"Poof"
The smell of blood covered Malfurion's face, awakening the Great Druid from his deepest nightmare, and his beast-like pupils reflected the familiar and vicious face of the upper elven nobles, and the Great Druid, who had been tortured for nearly a month, closed his eyes in pain.
His nightmare isn't over yet...
"Savis, stop torturing me, kill me."
Malfurion whispered in a hoarse voice:
"I know you hate me, kill me, let this be over."
"The end?"
A hint of madness flashed in Savis's eyes when he heard the word, and he took a step back, his slender and graceful body rapidly shifting in the shadows, and the shadow reflected on the ground on the other side turned into a twisted monster shape.
It took on its original form, and before Malfurion's eyes, the Nightmare King Savis, who had been tortured endlessly, moved his true body, and in the twisted muscular body, there was no trace of the grace of the upper elves, but instead there was a red upper body, and the arms and the strange black mane on his face.
His legs turned into demon-like recurved hooves, and his ugly, dry skin was full of dark red cracks, and on his forehead, two twisted and deformed demon horns grew, which looked like a half-demon form, but on the muscles and body, there were blood-red magic patterns that represented the power of nightmares, and strange crystal-like limbs.
Even at the tip of his tail, which flicked behind his back, there were parasitic organs that resembled crystals.
Appears depraved, corrupt, and disgusting, like the most obscene creature produced by the crossbreeding of the most evil forces.
"Look at me now, Malfurion, you're all at fault..."
Savis whispered in Malfurion's ear in a gentle voice among friends, but the language was filled with the most vicious curses:
"It's going to be over, Malfurion... I'm going to turn your beloved Tyrande into such a monster in front of you, and twist her into a. I will destroy everything you are guarding, and I will let you see with your own eyes the people you are going to protect kill each other in front of you, and finally, in the bloody hell that stains the whole of Mount Hyjal..."
"It's going to be over... The hatred that lasted for 10,000 years will come to an end..."
"Oh, pray you're firm enough, Malfurion... Pray to all you can find. ”
