Elisande has always been a person who knows the current affairs. If she didn't know what it meant to retreat bravely, Suramar would have been destroyed during the Great Schism like other elven cities ten thousand years ago. device
Just because she knew how to position herself according to the direction of the wind at any time, when the Kaldorei Empire was strong, she was Azshara's confidant and obeyed the queen's orders. But after the queen's collapse, she immediately became the dictator of Suramar. The author, Grand Magister Elisande.
Now, Suramar is facing another crisis similar to the one ten thousand years ago, but this time, Elisande is far more uneasy than then.
"I...surrender to you, your mighty Lich King."
"He who knows the times is a wise man, Elisande."
Alsace withdrew Frostmourne from Elisande's waist. Feeling the cold blade that penetrated his soul gradually move away, Elisande finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Even if she wanted to die generously, she didn't want to know what it felt like to be killed by that sword. Rather than being stabbed through by Frostmourne, it would be better to surrender. Now she shouldn't have to worry about her life. After all, the Lich The king should have ensured the stability of Suramar. As a great mage, she still had the capital to survive.
Elisande was actually right. Arthas did not plan to abolish Suramar's original power mechanism. There would be a war in the sea near here soon. If Elisande had not controlled the city like this for ten thousand years, With the iron-fisted leader in place, it’s unclear what kind of disagreements will arise within the Children of the Night. device
It would be a trivial matter to replace the Grand Magister, but when the time comes, the Nightborne of Suramar will surrender to the enemy and resist, and it will become a mess and become even more troublesome.
"These raw energies are very powerful, and we may be able to use the water from this well to complete our plans."
Malygos, who suppressed the connection between the Nightwell and Elisande, focused on the huge power contained in the Eye of Aman'Thul, but these words made Elisande look very unnatural.
Arthas noticed the change in Elisande's demeanor. The Nightwell is the lifeblood of the Children of Night. Even Elisande, the great mage, would only be able to survive if he was cut off from the Nightwell and exiled to the wild. He ended up becoming a withered person.
Elisande didn't know what Malygos and Arthas planned to do with the Nightwell, but having a being far more powerful than herself target the Nightwell that she relied on for survival made Elisande naturally very uneasy—— As the great mage of Suramar for ten thousand years, she has never been as passive as she is today.
However, the matter has come to this point. As the defeated party, the Children of the Night have not taken the initiative to open the passport through negotiation, and they have no sovereignty at all.
"This well can provide us with a lot of help, and your Scourge Legion should also be able to use it... Well, for the first time, I feel that these elves are doing something useful."
Seeing that Malygos had almost drawn a clear line between the Nightwell and the Nightborne, Elisande, who was worried that the entire race would be destroyed in his own hands, finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Please don't destroy the Nightwell... The Children of the Night will obey your command, and we can help you if you stay." Elisande begged, risking the end of his life.
"Huh?" Malygos looked at Elisande in confusion. Did he say he wanted to destroy the well?
"If you can show your worth, nothing will happen to the Nightwell."
Of course, Arthas had no intention of completely destroying the Nightborne. Their knowledge and strength were both useful tools against the Legion. It was very useful to integrate Suramar into one body instead of separate armies fighting independently.
The Dark Night Well is a good thing to suppress the Night Children. Only a fool would deprive the Night Children of their connection with the Dark Night Well. Let alone jumping over the wall in a hurry, there is no value in turning these elves into a group of Withered Lawmen.
Arthas pushed Elisande away, watched as Elisande was held up by her "loyal" subordinates, and then opened another portal to take Thalyssra, who was imprisoned in the floating fortress. Released. device
"Thalissra?"
Elisande didn't understand why her subordinates were in the hands of the Lich King, but she didn't doubt that Thalyssra had betrayed the enemy at all, because in her opinion, although Thalyssra was a bit stubborn, she could not fight against the enemy. Suramar's loyalty is her greatest strength.
Thalyssra was now in a coma, but Elisande took a glance and found that her advisor had no other injuries besides being unconscious. She looked at Arthas in confusion, not knowing what the Lich King was doing. What means.
"Manage your subjects well, be careful in your words and deeds, and don't cause trouble...and those nobles, if you ignore them, I will help you deal with them."
Arthas had no good impression of the arrogant and lewd nobles of Suramar. They were the real losers of Suramar. Today they could surrender to the Scourge, but tomorrow they might surrender to the Burning Legion for greater interests or self-protection.
Thalyssra is a very good "tool" for controlling nobles. Elisande will not give up Thalyssra easily unless something is impossible.
"Yes... thank you for your kindness, His Majesty the Lich King."
…
The top floor of the Night Fortress, originally a palace dedicated to Elisande to "enjoy" the power of the Nightwell, has now become a conference room and temporary residence for the Aspect Dragon and the Lich King to discuss strategies.
"The addiction to magic in these elves is deep into their bones, even worse than those of the Quel'dorei."
After touring the city, Malygos discovered that almost everyone in Suramar was trapped in the nightwell's magic and couldn't extricate themselves, much more seriously than the high elves. Once the nightwell was captured or destroyed, the Nightborne would Losing combat effectiveness in an instant, even surviving is a problem.
"This is a hidden danger..." Ysera was a little worried. "The situation of these children is worse than we imagined. In order to concentrate power, Elisande has devoted a lot of resources to these nobles. Those civilians are living in dire straits but no one has them." care."
"Suramar is already a dilapidated pavilion. If the problem is exposed even slightly, it may fall apart," Arthas commented, "But don't worry too much. This problem is not unsolvable, but the focus now must be on how to inflict serious damage." Enter Kil'jaeden."
"I have sent an adjutant to investigate the temple full of corrupted power. The good news is that there are no other big threats except scattered demons on the beach there."
As Malygos spoke, he summoned the image of the Tomb of Sargeras for everyone to observe, "It's just that the main entrance of the temple is tightly closed, and there is a seal imposed by Aegwynn on it. I don't know how to break it by force. Whether the seal will cause any harm needs to be tested in practice."
"The incarnation of the fallen titan is a big threat. We'd better take precautions first... Well, Malygos, what is that place?" Alexstrasza's finger pointed at a spot on the holographic magic map. A strange campsite.
Upon hearing this, Malygos immediately zoomed in on the location and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Is this... the flag of Naga?"
"It seems our 'allies' have arrived."
