After losing the protective power of Tirisfal, Aegwynn's realm regressed from a demigod to a mortal.
Mortals have a lifespan limit, and Aegwynn is just a human with a short lifespan.
Without the life-extending and beauty-preserving effects of the power of guardianship, Aegwynn, who is nearly a thousand years old, would naturally age rapidly.
If Sharlayan's prediction is correct, Aegwynn's remaining time is probably running out, only about 3-5 years at most, or even less.
Due to her declining physical condition, even if Aegwynn wanted to try her best to break through and become a demigod again, it would be difficult for her to do so, let alone that she has no such idea now.
If you want to save Aegwynn, you must start from two aspects. One is to get rid of her inner guilt and self-blame, and the other is to nurse Aegwynn's body through the blessing of life, at least to restore her body to the state of her prime.
Regarding psychological criticism, only the three relatives and friends who have the closest relationship with Aegwynn can be responsible. Sharlayan will temporarily stay in Jaina's mage tower on standby.
From Ronin's point of view, he also hopes that Aegwynn, the legendary arcanist, can survive.
In any case, the Temple of the Guardian, the headquarters of the Council of Tirisfal, is located in Dalaran.
Even if Aegwynn and Medivh cannot be persuaded to contribute to Dalaran on a daily basis, once this floating city is attacked by a powerful demigod-level foreign enemy, the two generations of guardians who have settled here will definitely not stand idly by. There is a bottom.
Therefore, Ronin decided without hesitation to give Khadgar and the three of them sufficient resource supplies as investments to maximize the sense of belonging of the Tirisfal Council, which has high-end combat power, to Dalaran.
After leaving the Violet Castle after the dinner, the three members of the Sarlayan family said goodbye to Khadgar in front of the gate, and then followed Jaina back to the mage tower that belonged to her.
Jaina's mage tower was not built under her own supervision. When Dai Lin decided to send Jaina to study in Dalaran, she invested money in advance to buy this long-abandoned second-hand mage tower.
Although it is second-hand, the origin of this abandoned mage tower is not ordinary. It once belonged to a long-dead senior archmage of Dalaran.
After all, the great mage was just a short-lived human being, and died in the tower after living for more than 180 years.
180 years is already a long life for ordinary humans. This old mage survived his son, grandson and even great-grandson.
By the time the old mage was dying, the family relationship between him and his descendants who were separated by several generations had become very weak.
None of the descendants of the old mage had the talent to become an arcanist, but he still passed his will and left all the property in the mage tower to the descendants of his family who were not very familiar with it.
After a fierce battle for the family property, one of the descendants of the old mage sold the long-empty mage tower together with the land to the then Kirin Tor Council.
Many years later, Dailin finally paid for this empty mage tower and bought it for Jaina to use.
[Why not build a new one from scratch? It's impossible that the wealthy Kul Tiras doesn't have this financial resources, right? 】
【? 】
[Brother, are you serious? Do you know how long it takes to build a mage tower from scratch with an intricate internal structure? 】
[Besides, Dalaran is not Jaina’s home, it’s just one of her places to stay. Why put so much thought into it when the second-hand ones can’t be used? 】
[That is, Jaina doesn’t have princess disease. She didn’t say anything herself, but you are just eating carrots and worrying here. 】
[I’m just asking! Why do you start putting hats on my head? Did I mention that Gianna has princess disease? ! 】
As always, the barrage started without saying a few words and started a slap in the face and butt fight. Sarlayan just glanced at it and stopped paying attention.
When Jaina got the mage tower from Dai Lin, all the architectural structures in the tower remained intact as they were before.
All the equipment and furniture that Gianna needs can be easily provided with money.
As the little princess of the maritime powerhouse Kul Tiras, it was impossible for Jaina to be short of money. Before she moved in, Dailin took care of everything based on her baby daughter's needs.
Dalaran is also known as the City of Thousand Towers. It is not uncommon for mage towers like this to be reused after being abandoned.
The specifications of the Archmage's Mage Tower are different from ordinary Mage Towers. The height of the tower alone is much higher.
When she first bought the mage tower, Dailin didn't know some of Dalaran's hidden rules.
For Jaina, who had not yet entered the epic world at the time, it was actually against the rules to stay in this mage tower that could only be used by archmages.
But, I couldn’t stand the old Speaker Antonidas’ endorsement behind Jaina’s back.
Dalaran is a humane society after all, and anyone who is not blind can see that Jaina is gifted in the arcane arts.
With Antonidas' platform, Jaina's early check-in into the Archmage's Tower did not cause many waves.
Later developments also proved Antonidas's vision. Jaina became the youngest archmage in history and could finally live in this mage tower legitimately.
Sharlayan and Stellagosa have known Jaina since she was a little carrot head. Jaina spent her teenage years in Quel'Thalas. Stellagosa can even say He is half a teacher of little Gianna.
One sheep is driven, two sheep are herded.
When Stellagosa was teaching Tinagosa, she took Jaina with her, who often traveled between Silvermoon City and Unicorn City.
Therefore, Jaina's relationship with Stellagosa has always been very close, no worse than her relationship with Valeera.
Despite the fact that Jaina often quarrels with the jealous Valeela, the relationship between the two is actually not bad, and quarrels can be regarded as a way to express intimate feelings.
Jaina's knowledge of the Battle of the Hinterlands was limited to the battle reports submitted by Sarlayan on official matters, and the gossip that interested some girls was brushed aside.
After getting the relevant information about Melinthera from Stellagosa, Jaina's eyes turned playful when she looked at Sarlayan.
"Another one? You're so damn charming~"
Sarlayan spread his hands helplessly: "Don't talk nonsense, it's just Melinsela's unilateral expression of good intentions, and I didn't make any response."
Gianna rolled her eyes angrily: "Yes~ We all took the initiative to rush to the head office to see him off, right? We got the advantage and behaved well."
"Cough~"
Sarlayan didn't want to continue talking about this embarrassing and fatal topic: "Let's not talk about it for now, how is your cultivation going?"
Of course the ice-smart Jaina could tell that Sarlayan was deliberately changing the subject.
However, she had no intention of continuing to ask questions, and simply followed Sarlayan's topic and sighed: "As you can see, it's going well, but there is still a long way to go before reaching the peak of mortals."
Under Sharlayan's eagle eye observation, Jaina's arcanist level has reached 57.
Jaina did not have the experience of traveling around like Sharlayan and Valeera. Due to the characteristics of a mage, she could continue to improve her strength even if she was hiding in the mage tower and doing research behind closed doors.
Without experiencing a life-and-death fight, Jaina's actual combat ability is not as good as when Sharlayan and Valeela were at the same level, but her speed of progress amazed Sharlayan, who is also a genius. .
"Don't worry."
Sarlayan comforted him with some emotion: "Your progress is terrifying enough. If you advance too quickly, your foundation may not be strong. Continue to advance steadily step by step."
Jaina nodded calmly: "I think so too. According to you, Azeroth will be relatively peaceful in recent years. I don't have to force myself to break through quickly. Laying a solid foundation is the most important thing."
"By the way..."
Jaina asked with some worry: "Do you think Medivh and the others can successfully convince Aegwynn?"
Sarlayan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How could I know? This kind of thing all depends on what the person involved thinks."
"Aegwynn... although her character has become much more stable than when she was young, her stubborn nature has never changed."
"yes……"
As Aegwynn's registered disciple, Jaina had studied with Aegwynn in Dustwallow Marsh for a period of time and knew her temper better than Sharlayan.
"I hope Medivh and the others can succeed... let's not talk about this for now."
Jaina shook her head and changed the subject again: "After leaving Dara, where do you plan to go next?"
Sarlayan smiled and rubbed Jaina's smooth blond hair: "I have no other plans for the time being. I should rest in the territory for a while and assist the researchers at the Weapons Research Institute to improve new war weapons."
"After that... I should go to the Lost Islands first, and then go to Draenor to handle some finishing work."
