"The pollution from evil energy is getting more serious."
Malfurion looked at the gradually declining forests and soil with some concern. If this continues, the entire Hyjal Mountains may be affected by evil energy.
Although the Burning Legion was defeated, the far-reaching influence they left was difficult to eliminate. The druids tried their best but could not eliminate the corruption of evil energy.
Now they have only managed to control the corrosion, but if this is the case, there will be no place for the night elves to survive.
"This is not the way to go. We need to find a place to settle as soon as possible." Tyrande's eyes were filled with worry. After losing Nordrassil, the night elves also lost their immortality.
Diseases and infirmities that had not troubled them for ten thousand years caught up with them at this critical moment, and the lands contaminated by evil energy were constantly spreading terrible diseases.
Any elf who eats animals or plants contaminated by evil energy, or drinks spring water contaminated by evil energy, will suffer from ulcers all over his body, covered with foul-smelling abscesses.
Many people could not accept such horrific torture and chose to end their lives quietly. As leaders, Tyrande and Malfurion were deeply saddened by this, but there was nothing they could do.
The number of druids and priests is limited and they cannot take care of every tribesman, but there are many elves who have eaten pollutants by mistake or due to hunger.
"It's just...the sentries have reached the westernmost edge of this continent. The Black Sea Coast is indeed not polluted yet, but it cannot accommodate our tribe."
The situation Tyrande described was desperate, but that wasn't the worst of it.
Darkshore is located in the low-altitude area of Felwood. The rivers of Felwood flow almost directly into Darkshore, and the corruption of evil energy is very likely to be brought here together.
All in all, Darkshore may be used as a temporary haven, but it is difficult to become a long-term home for the night elves.
Compared to the Hyjal Mountains, which is rich in resources and has pleasant scenery, the Dark Coast is indeed too barren and narrow.
But at this time, the night elves didn't have much room to be picky, and they were lucky to have a foothold in Darkcoast.
"Let the clansmen settle down in Black Coast and Ashenvale first. Fandral told me that he has made some new discoveries that may be able to help us." Malfurion could only make such a decision helplessly.
But Malfurion's expression did not calm down. He looked at the sea to the west with deep thoughts.
"Are you still thinking about Illidan?" Tyrande revealed Malfurion's thoughts with one word, and the archdruid just sighed slightly.
Malfurion rubbed his cheeks with his hands, trying to relieve some stress and fatigue, "Illidan... we have no idea what he has done and what his purpose is, but I have to face it. Some facts."
Illidan may not have had anything to do with the corruption of the forest, but he still committed numerous crimes by escaping from prison and harming Watchers and Sentinels.
Malfurion never understood what happened to his younger brother that caused such a drastic change in temperament.
Malfurion had to admit that Illidan was obsessed with powerful power, but at least Illidan at that time was not at the point where he would do whatever it took to betray his family and friends.
It wasn't until he entered Azshara's palace that Malfurion and Tyrande could no longer understand him.
For ten thousand years, Malfurion believed that his brother was bewitched by evil magic, so he did not kill him, but imprisoned him under Mount Hyjal.
But when he was confronting Illidan at the seaside of Azshara a few days ago, Malfurion suddenly felt that Illidan might "not change" at all.
It was not that he was bewitched or manipulated by evil energy, but that everything he did might be his original wish.
Such thoughts made Malfurion very uneasy. He wanted to find Illidan and ask him what was going on, but he could not abandon his people at the moment.
"Where do you think Illidan will go?" Malfurion asked, "He is not the kind of person who plans to spend the rest of his life on an isolated island. He must be prepared for something."
"I don't know, but maybe... he wants to go to the continent on the other side of the sea? Prince Arthas talked to us. There are ruins of demons raging on that land. Maybe Illidan will go there for this. ?”
Tyrande was also a little unsure, but after Illidan spent so much effort to leave Kalimdor, this was the only possibility.
"The Eastern Kingdom... that is indeed a strange land for us now. It is not impossible that Illidan would want to go there."
Malfurion realized that Tyrande was right. The emergence of the orcs was inextricably linked to the Burning Legion, and the Eastern Kingdom was where the orcs first appeared.
At this time, Malfurion suddenly thought of a question: How did the orcs cross the endless void and star sea to Azeroth?
The answer is very simple. As a night elf who was once shrouded in the light of arcane magic, he can easily think of the answer - portal.
And if you want to travel such a long distance, connect two worlds, and be able to accommodate an entire army to pass through, you must have a stable and reliable portal.
If what Alsace said is true...then the portal that can connect to the star realm may still be standing on the continent of the Eastern Kingdom!
A bad idea suddenly flashed through Malfurion's mind.
"Tylande, I think we may have to deal with the affairs here as soon as possible. I have a bad feeling." After this idea appeared in Malfurion's mind, his intuition began to tell him Early warning.
…
At the same time, on the endless sea, Illidan was sitting on the giant sea beast summoned by Vashj. Although there were no ships, it was not difficult to cross the endless ocean with these giant beasts with extremely amazing size and endurance.
"How long will it take for us to see the mainland?" Illidan's tone was calm, not anxious at all.
"It will take about another week. The Endless Sea is too vast, and if we want to avoid the whirlpool, we must take some detours... But, Lord Illidan, have you ever thought about where to land?"
Vashchi raised such a question because she knew from some channels that most of the Eastern Kingdom is now in the hands of humans, especially those places where they can land. If they are not careful, they will attract the attention of humans.
"Let's go to the north. I remember that Dath'Remar and his followers should be there too."
