Before returning to his hometown, Sarlayan thought that he would take a break and take care of the territory's affairs and various industries before setting off again.
Kael'thas's upcoming marriage to the queen unexpectedly disrupted his plans.
After all, it is the wedding of the king of a country.
From the beginning when Anastria releases the wind to make a nest, to the large-scale blowing of the wind to throw bait, and finally to the unseen lifting of the pole and the closing of the net, the whole process will take at least about half a year.
In this case, Sarlayan was not too busy to set off again, and took advantage of this relatively free time to relax while handling official duties at home.
Yes, for Sarlayan, dealing with government affairs is already considered relaxing.
Due to the complete mechanism of the lord's secretariat, the documents sent to Sarlayan through the chief secretary have been screened at all levels.
Saryan only needs to decide whether the resolution is passed based on his own judgment, and then it is a boring and repetitive process of signing and sealing.
Under the capable assistant secretary, Sarlayan usually spends no more than one morning handling official duties every day, so he has a lot of time at his disposal.
After entering the realm of demigods, it is not that easy to go further.
There is not much gain from hard work, but an occasional flash of inspiration may greatly advance the progress of understanding power.
Among the trio that broke through not long ago, Stellagosa has just stepped onto the threshold of demigods and is in urgent need of stabilizing her realm.
Although Valeera and Little Xingxing often quarrel and quarrel, in fact, the relationship between the two has always been very good.
As long as it doesn't involve anything related to Sarlayan, it's not an exaggeration to say that the two of them are as close as sisters.
Valeera thoughtfully took over the job of chief secretary, allowing Stellagosa more time to stabilize her realm and realize her natal power.
Compared with Sharlayan, who is still confused, Valeera and Stellagosa's understanding of their natal powers was quite smooth.
Not surprisingly, Stellagosa's natal power is gravity, a rare ability that is nominally attached to the category of arcane powers.
Unlike Sharlayan and Valeera, who were self-made, Stellagosa, who had a well-educated family, was noticed by her grandfather Senegos at a very young age, and the general direction of her talent was set to follow this path from the beginning. Delve deeper.
Therefore, Stellagosa's speed in stabilizing her realm was much faster than Valeela's. She only needed to calm down and retreat for more than a month to successfully master her natal power.
Onyxia?
There is no need for outsiders to guess at this girl's natural power. There is no doubt that it is the black dragon's inherent power of the earth.
After Sarlayan returned home, Onyxia, who used to go to the Entertainment Street to check in every day, finally calmed down and stayed with her family.
During the period of Stellagosa's retreat, Tinagosa, who was finally unsupervised, completely started to have fun.
For more than a month, the little guy has dragged Sharlayan and others and left footprints all over Quel'Thalas.
On the last day before Stellagosa left seclusion, Sharlayan had a sudden idea to go to the Island of Quel'Danas to meet the incarnation of the Sunwell, Anveena Denis, who was basically determined to become the queen.
By the way, I can also visit the captain of the Well Guard and Sarlayan's warrior mentor Thalorian Morningseeker, who is still doing his duty faithfully.
Yes, in order to perform the full set of the play, and after confirming that Anveena's court etiquette had basically passed, Anasteria sent her back to the Island of Quel'Danas to wait for the day when the play would officially begin.
Since there was plenty of time, the family did not set off in a hurry by teleportation and flying. Instead, they walked to the beach in the Windrunner family territory and took a boat out to sea. They slowly took the arcane-powered boat to Quel'Danas Island.
While the family was sitting in the boat chatting leisurely, while Tinagosa temporarily pestered Valeera with questions, Sharlayan went to Onyxia to continue discussing the power of the black dragon.
Before Deathwing's fall, the black dragon had only one power, and that was "the earth".
As Deathwing fell to the ancient gods, the black dragon was artificially given a new power.
Depending on the individual's acceptance of the power of the ancient gods, there will be some subtle differences in the powers they obtain.
Deathwing's power is undoubtedly void, and people like Onyxia, who are always wary of the power of the ancient gods, get shadows that are closer to their essence.
However, because Onyxia accidentally obtained the Blade of the Dark Empire, she can use this magic weapon to inject her own shadow power into it and convert it into the power of the void for output.
But shadow and void powers were not the focus of Sharlayan and Onyxia's discussion.
"shape?"
Onyxia tilted her head in confusion, with a look of memory on her face: "When I was very young, I heard about this concept from Neltharion, who had not yet fallen."
"It is said that the power of shaping is the superior power of the power of the earth. Even Neltharion himself dare not say that he can fully master this ability."
"Is this so..."
Onyxia's answer was somewhat different from Sharlayan's expectation. He thought that all black dragons would naturally gain the power of shaping through refining their powers.
However, this is not the case.
"Has Neltharion mentioned why it is difficult for the black dragon to refine the power of the earth into the power of shaping?"
Onyxia shrugged helplessly: "No, I'm afraid he doesn't know the specific reason."
"Speaking of this, I want to ask you."
Onyxia's eyes flickered as she looked at Valeela, who was playing with Tinargosa.
"I heard that the first power that the little squirrel in the jealous jar realized was the phase shuttle of a subordinate branch of space power? How did she realize the complete space power through the branch power?"
"Well..." Sarlayan ignored Onyxia's rather strange title and was stunned for a moment before saying uncertainly: "Perhaps it's because of the important enlightenment experience left by the soldier master. "
Onyxia didn't say anything, Sarlayan really didn't think of this problem.
After all, he and Valeela had just entered the demigod realm not long ago, and many of the issues that seemed like common sense to the veteran demigods were not yet realized by them.
According to Onyxia, it seems to be an incredible talent to deduce the main power through understanding the branch power.
Valeela was already extremely talented in space power, and coupled with the military master's years of experience in understanding space power, this helped her successfully complete this feat.
"So..." Sarlayan touched his chin thoughtfully: "If you can get the instructions and experience of shaping the power, can you also use the power of the earth to derive more from the source? The shaping power of the origin?”
"Hmm..." Onyxia, who had always been confident, seemed a little hesitant at this moment: "I'm not sure. After all, you also know that except for you and little Xingxing, who rely on their own strength to break through, other dragons It came about by pulling out the seedlings and encouraging them to grow.”
"I can't guarantee whether my potential has been developed to its limit."
"That means it's at least worth a try, right?"
Sarlayan rubbed Onyxia's smooth black hair comfortingly: "The relationship between husband and wife, to put it more utilitarian, is a community of interests."
"The stronger you are, the more help you will have to our family."
"Whether you can successfully deduct the shaping power or not, I will find a way to help you get the relevant information."
Onyxia, who has always been cynical, was silent for a rare moment: "Are you going to ask Azadas for help?"
The answer is not difficult to guess.
With the destruction of the Pantheon, only the Lesser Titan in Azeroth, who inherited the power of the Shaper Khaz'goroth, has this ability.
"That's right."
Sarlayan looked up at the far end of the sea level: "Don't worry, Azadas still needs us."
"As long as we can help him retake Ulduar, this small favor is nothing to him."
Onyxia sighed softly: "Azadas and Tyr are the two closest mortals among the Titan Guardians. On the condition of recovering Ulduar, he should not refuse your request."
"But favors need to be borrowed and repaid. Are you sure you want to use your achievements in recapturing Ulduar on this? You should have more important things that need the help of the Titan Guardians, right?"
Sarlayan smiled noncommittally: "Don't take the Titan Guardians too utilitarian. Their sense of responsibility for protecting Azeroth is not inferior to anyone else."
"On the important matter of the safety of Azeroth, even if I don't ask, they will take the initiative to stand up and shoulder the responsibilities entrusted to them by the Pantheon."
"What I'm more worried about is..."
Sarlayan frowned slightly and said, "How should I reveal to them the news that the Pantheon has long been destroyed?"
"If this matter is not handled well, a situation like Laideng's loss of fighting spirit is likely to happen again, and it will be with a few guardians."
"This is undoubtedly a big loss for Azeroth."
