Cathedral of the Holy Light in Lordaeron. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When the orcs stormed the city, the cathedral was lucky to escape the flames of battle.

At the time when Deathwing had almost destroyed the royal palace, the Light still blessed the cathedral.

It is often said that the splendor of the Light will save the Cathedral and the entire Church of the Light from calamity.

This time, it seems that the good use of the Church of Light has run out.

Outside the pure white cathedral, every clergyman looked hurried, and there was an indissoluble sadness on their faces. Even the white and bright outer tower of the church seems to be overshadowed.

After a succession of big events, almost all the rest of the alliance wanted to see the Lordaerons unlucky, and this did not include Alonsos Fao.

Unlike Terenus, a hypocrite who is ostensibly righteous but is still calculating for the good of his country. Alonsos is a truly ecumenical and selfless sage.

A long time ago, in Dalaran, a Lordaeron missionary threw a copper coin into the fountain and made a wish: "I hope that one day I will spread the word of light to the common people and teach them the meaning of the Three Virtues." ”

Before the orc invasion, Alonsos had been doing this. He preached throughout the Eastern Kingdom, spreading the light of hope throughout the seven kingdoms of mankind, establishing churches of light in every country and city, spreading virtues, calling on people to take care of orphans who had lost their parents, inspiring every offender, and trying to put everyone on the path of good.

After the Darkgate War began, he was the first to come out and call on all countries to accept the refugees of the Stormwind Kingdom, and it was he who mobilized the entire Church of Light to continue to support the frontline battles without complaint during the height of the war, calming people's panicked hearts and giving them confidence and courage.

After the war, he was the first to stand up and call on wealthy families and nobles with surplus finances to donate money for the restoration of the kingdom of Stormwind and the kingdom of Stormgard, which were destroyed in the war.

In order to fight evil, he ran around and gave speeches everywhere.

In order to promote justice, he created the great profession of Paladin.

For the revival of mankind, he worked almost tirelessly for the revival of all nations.

He was a truly noble man.

If Terenus disgraced the term 'Lordaeron', then Alonsos is the key to making 'Lordaeron' great again.

The kings of each alliance could not buy Terenus's account, but the kings tended to give maximum support to Alonthos, a truly benevolent and noble old man.

But now, without warning, Alonsos has fallen.

At this time, almost all the kings who were still in Lordaeron gathered in the cathedral, and the kings who had already left immediately returned, and even King Jean of Gilne, who had withdrawn from the alliance, sent ministers to offer condolences.

Following a stern Uther, Duke, Ryan, and Anduin were in a heavy mood.

Today, the priest's [dispelling technique] is very mature, and ordinary minor illnesses and pains will not invade Bishop Alonsos's body. Duke had secretly asked Uther if the archbishop had fallen under the curse, but Uther shook his head.

Outside the archbishop's bedchamber, Duke saw a somewhat depressed King Solas, whose eyes were red, and he probably cried a little.

Not every king of a dead country has an Anduin who can be a spiritual leader as a helper, and not every king has a decathlon Duke who can hold up the whole country.

In the days when Fort Riptide was destroyed and Stormgard was destroyed, Archbishop Alonsos accompanied Solas the most. And at the critical time of the restoration of the country, the person who gave the people of Riptide Castle the most help, except for Duke, was Alonsos.

Alonsos fell suddenly, and even a man like Solas, who had experienced a lot of wind and waves, had the feeling that some important pillar in his heart had collapsed.

With the exception of Bharval Vortagen, who is still in charge of the Stormwind Kingdom, and Reginald Windsor, who remains in Red Ridge Mountain to command Duke's private troops, all the paladins are already standing outside the door.

Seeing Duke and his party coming, Soras's mouth was full of bitterness: "Your Excellency Fao's time is limited, according to the will of the archbishop, Uther will lead you in one by one." ”

The first to go in was Ryan, and five minutes later, Ryan came out with a heavy heart.

To everyone's surprise, Anduin Lothar, who thought that he had the best relationship with Alonsos, would be the last, but who knew that the archbishop arranged for Lothar to be the penultimate one.

And the last person who is most valued, the archbishop's royal decree was arranged for Duke.

Fifteen minutes later, Anduin came out with tears on his face.

Uther bowed her head: "Duke, the master wants to see you alone." ”

Everyone was stunned.

As the great disciple of Fao, and the most brilliant and proud of the archbishop, Uther's name for justice and bravery has long transcended national borders, and Uther has been with him since the archbishop was critically ill. Basically, every time Fao received dignitaries from various countries, he was accompanied by at least one disciple, and roughly alternated between Uther, Tirio, and Sedan.

Now it's even said to be a one-man meeting?

What the hell does Alonsos want to tell Duke, and even an impartial paladin like Uther can't sit in on it?

The curiosity of the crowd was raised to the throat.

Duke entered.

It was a very bright and simple room, there was no strong smell of medicine as expected, but the room was filled with a faint golden light of nature and peace.

Alonsos sat upright at the head of the bed, not at all in his spirits like a dying man.

Seeing Duke's astonishment, Alonsos smiled: "I don't look like a dying man, do I?"

Duke nodded, people like Alonsos don't need lies, even white lies.

"I used to think that as long as the heart was pure, the amount of light that the human body could hold was infinite. Unfortunately, compared to my soul, the first thing I couldn't bear was my mortal body. Alonsos smiled wryly.

"This ......"

"Let's put it this way, my body is unable to carry such a huge amount of Light, and my organs begin to forget how they work, and as a result, my body weakens uncontrollably. It's sad, isn't it? The archbishop, who had once determined to save the world with the light, died under the light. The wry smile on his face was a little stronger.

"Your Excellency, you are demanding, and humans are not creatures of pure light like Naru. ”

"Naru, a creature of pure light?" Alonsos suddenly became curious.

Duke suddenly realized that he had slipped out. Now it can't even talk about counterattacking Draeno, and the alliance hasn't met Delaney yet, so naturally it won't know about Naru. It can only be nonsense that I have seen depictions of such a race in Karazhan's collection, but I have not witnessed it myself.

Alonsos saw Duke's cover-up, and he didn't blame Duke.

Instead, he said, "Duke, will you inherit my will?" (To be continued.) )
