Needless to say, Territory affairs, Sarlayan has been away from Quel'Thalas for more than a year, and everything in the territory has been left to his mother and father to help take care of it. It is time to go back and take over again.
Previously, Calpurnia brought a letter home to Sarlayan, who was still training in New Sundara City.
After the birth of Welles and Alyssa's child, Uncle Welles, who had a strong sense of responsibility, quickly returned to the Backlight Blade.
In the previous year, Julian had to handle official duties on behalf of Welles during the day, and when he returned home at night, he had to pay the official rations without hesitation.
According to Kael'thas, Julian had lost a lot of weight during the year, and he immediately left his job and ran away as soon as Verlais returned.
Talking about escaping was actually a joke. Julian just took over the external affairs of Quel'Thalas that he should have been responsible for.
Among the two brothers of the Deep Shadow Clan, Welles is in charge of internal affairs. Unless he encounters special circumstances such as the Battle of Quicksand, he usually will not leave Yongsong Forest.
And Julian specializes in complex external affairs. Wherever there is a hard nut to crack, Julian will appear there.
After marrying Yin Nasi, Julian's work gradually focused on investigating the ancient gods.
The same goes for his mission this time. It is said that he caught clues related to the new Dream Demon King.
"New Dream Demon King..."
Upon hearing this name, Sarlayan's penis suddenly shrank.
Kael'thas nodded with a serious expression: "Yes, I was surprised when I heard you mention this name before."
"Is this a coincidence? Or is it inevitable? We don't know yet."
"The discovery of information related to the new Dream Demon King in two consecutive places shows that the guy whose identity is temporarily unknown can no longer restrain his desire to cause trouble."
"Well..." Sarlayan lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "Leave the investigation of the new Dream Demon King to my father for the time being. I believe he can find some clues."
"As for mother..."
Sarlayan rubbed his temples with a headache: "Looking for inspiration? I don't know when she will break through the bottleneck."
In order to solve the fertility problem between dragons and high elves, Yin Nasi has been busy doing research for more than a year.
Unfortunately, this major issue involving the origin of life is not so easy to solve.
Unsurprisingly, Yin Nasi's research hit a bottleneck, and she could not find an opportunity to solve the problem for a long time.
Seeing that her research was not going well, Yin Nasi's temper became more and more irritable. Julian suggested that she go out with him to collect information and relax her mood. Maybe she could get inspiration from what she saw during the trip.
Anyway, she couldn't find a research direction for the time being, so Yinasi took her husband's advice and left Quel'Thalas with him.
Before leaving, Yin Nasi handed over the responsibility of taking care of her son's territory to Alyssa, who had finished her confinement.
What? Milk baby?
With the status of the Shenying family, wherever Alyssa needs to take action personally, the nanny will naturally be responsible.
Moreover, the development of Sarlayan's territory has long been on track, and Alyssa does not need to take care of it at any time, as long as there is no trouble.
Kael'thas, who was working hard, had no rest at night. After the conversation with Sarlayan, he had to stay in the study and continue to work overtime.
Returning to the audience hall, they found Valeera and others who had returned from shopping. Through the portal opened by the Royal Arcanist, the group returned directly to the Earl of Deep Shadow in the southern part of the forest.
After returning to the Lord's Mansion, Sarlayan did not rest immediately.
After greeting the surprised territorial officials, Sarlayan took several people to his lord's office after a long absence.
During her report, Valeera learned some news from Quel'Thalas' southern neighbor, the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
"It's really a mess."
Sarlayan had heard from Calpurnia that the Stratholme region was in chaos before, and with the detailed information provided by the Backlight Blade headquarters, Sarlayan had a deeper understanding of the cause and current situation of the chaos.
Lordaeron has a vast territory, and their territory spans many areas in the northern part of the Eastern Continent.
Since the royal city is located in Tirisfal Glades, Lordaeron has relatively weak control over the distant Stratholme region and needs to rely on the priests of the Light's Hope Chapel to help exert influence.
The connection between Light's Hope Chapel and Stratholme was cut off due to the Mosstrolls' attacks.
Baron Rivendell, who was sitting in Stratholme City, was very anxious. Under the fanning of some people, he began to worry that the king would doubt the loyalty of Stratholme officials who had lost contact with the Light's Hope Chapel.
The best way to get out of this predicament is to fight off the Moss Trolls blocking your way.
However, Baron Rivendell had troubles that he couldn't tell. To be precise... he didn't dare to tell.
As the largest city in East Tirisfal, Stratholme City should have abundant food reserves, and it would not be a problem to destroy a group of moss-rot trolls blocking the road.
However, in fact, Stratholme's granary caught fire inexplicably one night more than half a month ago, and most of the granary was burned to the ground.
Baron Rivendell, who came after hearing the news, didn't even have time to put on his armor. He personally went into battle to direct the fire fighting, but in the end he only managed to save enough food and grass for the people of the city, and did not dare to send troops to suppress the bandits.
In order to avoid being questioned by King Terenas, Baron Rivendell suppressed the matter and prevented anyone from leaking the information.
When the King's City of Lordaeron sent an order to suppress bandits, Baron Rivendell was so anxious that he scratched his head and scratched his head.
At this time, an aide stood up and gave him an idea - to divert the trouble to the east.
Then, just as Calpurnia said, Terenas, who had no good impression of the high elves, accepted Rivendell's suggestion and ordered Quel'Thalas to send troops to help suppress the bandits in a superior manner.
This order was naturally rejected by Kael'thas and the Silver Moon Council. Kael'thas even wrote a letter to Terenas himself, making some sarcasm in the letter to let him know his identity.
Quel'Thalas is not a vassal country of Lordaeron and has already withdrawn from the Alliance. The Kingdom of Lordaeron has no right to order Quel'Thalas to do anything.
Not to mention the furious Terenas, Baron Rivendell, who had no reinforcements, planned to drag this matter on until the spring harvest before sending out troops.
Eleven years after entering the Dark Portal, no one has been able to stop them. The scope of activity of the Moss Rotten Troll is getting larger and larger, and they are likely to take advantage of the opportunity to expand their territory.
The elite soldiers of the high elves are stationed at Quellins Hut and the Gate of Thalas to the west, and the Moss Rotten Troll does not want to provoke them.
Starting from Zumashal, the Moss Rotten Trolls moved southward along the North Valley, and did not stop until they attacked the east wall guard tower guarding the Holy Light's Hope Chapel.
For the first time, the trolls hit the door, and the Holy Light's Hope Chapel was in a state of panic.
The angry priests sent people to report the matter back to the King's City of Lordaeron. Terenas, who was still angry, finally found a punching bag and sent an envoy to Stratholme City to curse Baron Riedel and ordered him to let go. He immediately sent troops to repel the moss-rot trolls.
Being stared at eagerly by the special envoy, Baron Rivendell was worried that he would discover the cause and consequences of Stratholme's lack of food, so he could only bite the bullet and lead the army personally, taking away most of the remaining food in the city.
What to do if there is no food? Let's make trouble.
Stratholme is a big city after all, so famine is impossible.
But it just happened.
Baroness Annastali, who stayed in the city, tried to appease the angry people in the city and assured them earnestly that if they persisted for a while, the food needs of the whole city would be met by the harvest.
However, the hungry people ignored the void pie painted by the Baroness. They angrily attacked the city hall and the lord's palace, and the entire Stratholme city was in chaos.
Terenas' envoy obviously did not expect such turmoil to occur. He fled the city in panic and prepared to ride back to the Royal City of Lordaeron to inform King Terenas of the matter.
A bizarre thing happened again. The envoy was killed by an unknown person on his way back. News of the unrest in Stratholme failed to reach the Royal City of Lordaeron immediately, and the situation intensified.
The Backlight Blade headquarters has been closely monitoring the development of this matter, and Welles has seen some clues from the bizarre incidents that have occurred one after another.
Stellagosa frowned and asked after listening to Sarlayan's description: "Is this someone fanning behind you?"
"Ha~" Onyxia sneered: "Isn't this obvious? What we should consider now is whether to help? If we do, what can we get from this crisis?"
