The purpose of the night elves is actually not difficult to guess.
This large gathering of elves was held not only to seek wisdom from the public, but also to consolidate the influence of the night elves.
Regardless of whether other elves are willing to admit it, at this point in time, the night elves are undoubtedly the strongest of all the elven races, if not one.
Strictly speaking, all existing branches of elves are derived from night elves.
Since the dark trolls evolved after receiving the blessing of the Well of Eternity, the term "night elf" has represented the entire elven race.
Sarlayan has also said before that the so-called upper elves are not a race, but represent the upper class of the night elves.
The night elves have inherited most of the legacy of the ancient Night Empire, and their population and overall national strength are unmatched in Azeroth.
Although the Kingdom of Lordaeron was at its peak in the past few years, compared with the night elves who occupied most of the continent of Kalimdor, it was nothing more than the light of fireflies and the brightness of the bright moon.
When the countries in the alliance are most united, they may be able to form a rope and compete with the night elves.
In the original history mentioned in the barrage, the night elves gradually stepped down from the altar after the decisive battle with Archimonde on Mount Hyjal.
Today's night elves sit on the world tree Nordrassil, have the blessings of three dragon kings, are immune to all diseases and are immortal.
Although they are still called mortals, the survival form of the night elves has half-stepped into the extraordinary realm.
Night elves are tall and strong, and their physical fitness is not inferior to that of the violent orcs.
After prohibiting the in-depth study of arcane magic and driving away all the Highborne, the Druids replaced them, making up for the night elves' lack of spellcasters.
But the Highborne do more than just provide powerful spellcasters.
High-ranking elves who have been in high positions for a long time will receive family education in overall management from an early age. This is important knowledge that is difficult for ordinary night elves to have access to.
Malfurion and Tyrande were both born into civilian families. Although the geniuses possessed great personal strength, they had never received systematic education in governing, and they lacked both experience and relevant abilities.
The lessons from the past are still fresh in our minds. After the Catastrophe, the night elves had an unspeakable fear of a few people taking power. They were worried that they would once again cultivate an Azshara-style authoritarian leader.
The combination of several factors eventually led to the night elves maintaining a loose anarchist government for tens of thousands of years. This is also the most troublesome problem for Malfurion and others today.
However, the problems with the national system did not significantly affect the national power of the night elves. At most, they stopped their progress and gave other races a chance to slowly catch up.
Feeling the sense of urgency, Malfurion realized that he could no longer keep herding sheep like this.
With this large gathering of elves, on the one hand, he wanted to use the wisdom of his relatives to shape a new political system suitable for the night elves. On the other hand, he also wanted to flex his muscles and show that the night elves were still strong.
Sharlayan had thought about competing for dominance with the night elves who had serious internal differences at the conference, but after careful discussion with Kael'thas for a while, he reluctantly gave up the idea.
Without him, the strength is just insufficient.
In the final analysis, national strength is the core competitiveness in interactions between countries.
Even though the night elves' influence has declined due to infighting, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse.
At least at this stage, Quel'Thalas's national strength is not enough to compete with the night elves.
Sharlayan could see the meaning behind Malfurion's proposal to establish an intelligence alliance, which was to allow the night elves to have the highest say as the "head of the family" in the big family of all elves.
However, the tragedy is that each of the most influential bosses in the night elves have their own shortcomings. Only Malfurion, who pursues a moderate approach, can barely develop, and has no particularly big shortcomings.
But excluding the problem of ability, Malfurion's character is also a problem.
He was henpecked, to put it more clearly, and was too lenient with Tyrande.
Sharlayan had no problem with Malfurion taking power. He just didn't want the intelligence alliance composed of various elves to have a food-addicted "overlord" behind it.
While the other representatives were still bowing their heads in thought, Sarlayan raised his question without hesitation.
"Master Stormrage, who will lead the intelligence alliance you mentioned?"
Sarlayan's eyes drifted slightly to where Tyrande was, and Malfurion immediately understood what he meant.
'Hey~'
Sighing silently in his heart, Malfurion was also very troubled by his girlfriend's poor governance ability, but she still liked to hold on to power.
Forcing himself to ignore Tyrande's longing look, Malfurion turned his attention to his most prized apprentice, Fandral Staghelm.
"I propose that Arch Druid Fandral Staghelm be the one to preside over the matter and coordinate and distribute the latest information submitted by all parties."
'Deerhelm, that's not bad. '
Sharlayan glanced at Staghelm who looked surprised. It seemed that he also thought Malfurion would nominate Tyrande.
After receiving Sharlayan's look, Calpurnia, who represented Quel'Thalas, smiled and agreed: "Quel'dorei has no objection, but considering Master Staghelm's fiery temper, it would be best to give him He has a calm and cautious deputy."
Malfurion understood what Calpurnia meant and reciprocated the favor by asking, "That's a good suggestion. Who does Ms. Calpurnia think is more suitable?"
Calpurnia glanced at Sarlayan, but unfortunately he shook his head to indicate that she was not interested.
Sighing softly, Calpurnia still maintained a friendly smile on her face.
"Master Staghelm is destined to join the soon-to-be-established Night Council. In this case, Quel'Thalas will also have to bring forth figures of the same level."
"I recommend that Silvermoon Councilor--Great Astromancer Solanlian assist Master Staghelm."
…
Kaldorei, Quel'dorei, Sha'dorei, Faldorei and Syndra, among the five existing branches of the elves, Kaldorei and Quel'dorei undoubtedly hold the most influence.
After discussions among various tribes, a new organization called the Elven Covenant was established. Fandral Staghelm and Solanlian served as the deputy and deputy of the organization respectively. Under these two people, there were many middle-level officials who supported the organization. .
After many days of discussions among all races, the first conference after the establishment of the Elf Covenant came to a successful conclusion.
On the last day of the meeting, Malfurion officially announced that the night elves would form a unified country, naming it the Night Elf Democratic Republic, or the Night Republic for short.
The newly formed Dark Night Republic has no king to rule, and is dominated by the newly formed Dark Night Parliament.
The position of Speaker of the Night Council is widely expected to be held by Malfurion Stormrage.
Several members from the speaker on down have their own division of labor.
Tyrande Whisperwind, High Priest of the Moon, remains in charge of the Sisters of Elune.
Jarod Shadowsong was elected Grand Marshal to command the Republic's forces, and his sister, Warden Maiev Shadowsong, would be in charge of the justice system.
Fandral Staghelm is primarily responsible for intelligence work.
But in addition to managing the many intelligences obtained by the Elf Covenant, he also needs to learn advanced experience from various covenant countries over a long period of time and coordinate the various reform plans of the Republic.
Yes, reform.
Just as Suramar and Quel'Thalas actively invested in reforms, the night elves also felt the dramatic changes of the times. Some of the old policies were no longer suitable for the current new era and must be changed.
However, the night elves have been stuck in their ways for many years, and taking a big step rashly will inevitably lead to trouble. They can only learn from the mature experience of other countries, and then put it into practice after stable localization transformation.
This aspect of work was left to Fandral Staghelm, the most energetic and flexible man.
As a result, he was nicknamed the leader of the National Development and Reform Commission by barrages.
Considering that the burden on Staghelm's shoulders was getting heavier and heavier, after internal discussions within the Cenarion Circle and with the consent of Staghelm himself, Malfurion handed over the actual power of managing all druids to the Grand Master. Ruirenza Gianthoof.
Staghelm and Malfurion will still be members of the Cenarion Circle, but they will no longer participate in daily management and focus on their respective tasks.
Ten thousand years have passed since the disintegration of the Night Empire, and the night elves, who have always stood still, have finally taken steps again.
The establishment of the Dark Night Republic caused a wave of waves throughout Azeroth. Heads of state tentatively sent representatives to Kalimdor in an attempt to formally establish diplomatic relations with the newly born Dark Night Republic.
The subsequent developments have nothing to do with Sarlayan, and the diplomatic work will be left to Calpurnia.
Suddenly shouldering the heavy responsibility of reforming national policies, Staghelm, who had always been fearless, was unusually nervous and had to drag Sarlayan for guidance.
In desperation, Sarlayan could only postpone his return plan and answer Staghelm's 100,000 whys one by one, explaining to him from shallow to deep what reform is and why it is necessary.
After finally getting rid of Staghelm's entanglement, and just teleported back to Yongsong Forest through the dream channel, Sarlayan immediately heard bad news from Valeera who came immediately.
"The situation in Northrend has changed. The Drakkari Trolls and the Iron Legion suddenly reached a peace agreement and unanimously turned their targets to the Crystalsong Forest, which is still under construction."
