Dath'Remar Sunstrider is an upper elf who has escaped from vulgar tastes, a selfless high elf, and a pure elf whose mission is to revive the Kaldorei Empire.
Serve the country and the people with no regrets, and do not change your original intention when the party fails.
Unlike the suspected time traveler Carlos Barov, Dath'Rema's wariness of the Burning Legion came from his painful war experience.
So after the ancient continent of Kalimdor shattered, the first thing Dath'Remar did was not to rescue his suffering compatriots, but to recover the empire's legacy.
Because the Well of Eternity has exploded, shattering the continent into pieces, many arcane magic products have become unique items that cannot be copied.
Strictly speaking, both Malfurion and Dath'Remar knew very well that the Burning Legion was only expelled from Azeroth. The night elves achieved their strategic goals but did not defeat the Burning Legion.
Therefore, Malfurion chose to completely ban magic to prevent the Burning Legion from coming again.
Dath'Remar chose to prepare for war and prepare technology for the next conflict.
The Highborne's separation from Night Elf society didn't last long.
At least for immortal species, this is the case.
More than 10,000 years have passed since the Battle of Earthshattering. The history of the high elves crossing the sea and establishing Quel'Thalas is only less than 3,000 years and less than 4,000 years.
Therefore, the struggle between Dath'Remar, Malfurion and Tyrande for the leadership of the night elves lasted for at least five thousand years.
If Queen Azshara and Chancellor Xavius hadn't completely discredited the Highborne in the last period, it might not have been so easy for Malfurion to take power.
In the initial reconstruction stage, the remnants of the Kaldorei Empire did not forget that it was the aristocratic class with the upper elf as the main body that turned the tide.
Even Malfurion himself is the eldest son of the Stormrage family.
However, this war with the Burning Legion severely damaged the upper elf group. In addition, the Well of Eternity has been blown up, and the base has shrunk and it is difficult to replenish people. Dath'Remar and his group have gradually fallen from the ruling core class to being burdened with inexplicable burdens. A minority with historical baggage.
The eldest son Malfurion and the eldest daughter Tyrande became "peasant children" and "religious leaders".
It can be said that the withdrawal of the upper elves from the stage of history is a historical necessity, but if you think about it carefully, it is essentially a political struggle.
Jarod Shadowsong, the only one who was favored by the public, refused to become the new king, and the night elves refused the horizontal division of the Kaldorei, so they could only choose to divide vertically.
Therefore, Dath'Remar, who failed in the struggle, took his followers across the sea and left. The remaining upper elf forces such as Elre'Thalas and Suramar were at odds with the new leader.
The new generation of night elves will talk about the trauma caused by the Cataclysm to this land when talking about the high elves, but they completely forget that it was the high elves they hated and despised who healed the trauma.
The night elves, the overlords of Kalimdor, essentially just inherited the legacy of the previous overlord, the Kaldorei Empire.
So when the Burning Legion really came back, Malfurion had no willpower at all.
Malfurion only banned magic, but did not reject it, because using magic would attract the Burning Legion.
But the Burning Legion has already arrived, so of course there is no use for it. We all stand shoulder to shoulder and talk about the morality of the world with the Void Demon.
Dath'Rema's failed engagement that year could be regarded as a peaceful breakup with Malfurion. Malfurion did not kill them all, giving Dath'Remar enough time to prepare the manpower and materials to leave Kalimdor.
However, as the top mage of that era, the first-generation Sun King could not take away any of the legacy he left behind in his hometown.
Carlos did not intervene in this war, but the wings of the butterfly had already fanned a huge storm.
Compared with the so-called "canonical" timeline, Archimonde came to Azeroth almost a year earlier.
The most obvious result of this change is that Xavius, the satyr king and former prime minister of the Kaldorei Empire, did not corrupt the Emerald Dream enough to trap Malfurion.
As the most important figure in the night elves today, Malfurion alone is worth the importance of millions of troops.
Hundreds of arsenals sealed by druid spells were unsealed, and countless politically incorrect magical weapons were allowed to be used. As the storm horn sounded again, the living and lost loyalists of the empire once again answered the call.
That is an oath engraved with blood and soul.
Baiyang Valley is boiling.
The soul of the elf awakened from the ancient tree where it was lodged, and the veterans who had fought for the night elves for half their lives re-equipped and set off again.
This is something that Fandral Staghelm cannot do, or in other words, this is something that only Malfurion can do.
As an immortal race, the night elves have never lacked the ability to think independently. Although everyone recognized Malfurion's leadership status, they did not think that everything he did was right.
Even the eldest disciple Fandral Staghelm himself was dissatisfied with Malfurion, not to mention the 20 million night elves.
Only a mediocre person will not be hated by others. If he wants to do something, he will definitely offend others.
At the entrance to the cave at the base of a towering tree, Malfurion untied the barrier of thorns and vines.
At the bottom of the spiral downward passage is a huge cave space. The emptiness gives people a depressing and hazy feeling.
Malfurion's eyes flashed with lightning intensity, and the staff in his hand was heavily inserted into the rock under his feet.
As the Archdruid stirred up his power, the entire underground space began to twist and expand. The fog of dreams cut through the boundary between illusion and reality, and refixed a huge wooden sculpture here from the gap between reality and dream. In front of Furion.
"Didn't you decide to forget it on the edge of dreams?"
At some point, Tyrande stood behind her husband.
"It's traces are too heavy, the Kaldorei Empire, Queen Azshara, the Well of Eternity, arcane magic, Dath'Remar and the others..."
Malfurion talked and couldn't go on.
"The first batch of warriors to answer the call have arrived."
"Yes, they are always the first to answer the call, always, always, until they can no longer answer the call."
Tyrande Whisperwind didn't know how to heal her lover's sorrow, because she felt the same way.
For the glory of Kaldorei, countless night elves have died on the battlefield for thousands of years. Although Nordrassil's blessing has prevented the people from being troubled by disease and aging, mental fatigue is an inevitable price.
Therefore, many powerful warriors chose to leave and retreat into the mountains and forests. Many former friends left leadership positions and gave up their prominent but heavy responsibilities.
But they all swore an oath that as long as the Stormhorn sounded again, as long as the Kaldorei still needed them, the armor would still be there.
"Do you remember what it was first used for?"
Malfurion asked.
"How could you forget that on Queen Azshara's thousand-year birthday, she asked for gifts from all the wilderness demigods. Your teacher gave her a seed of life, and Azshara casually threw it next to the Well of Eternity."
Tyrande, as a trainee priestess, was present at the scene with her teacher. She still can't forget Cenarius's forced not-embarrassed look.
"The weapon for the doomsday battle, Dath'Rema guessed it right again. The end has come again, but I threw the weapon for the decisive battle into the nightmare."
Malfurion reached out and pulled out the staff, and the roots of the giant tree that broke out of the ground lifted him to the top of the giant wooden sculpture.
"Reorganize the army, raise supplies, and build defenses at all levels. Don't engage in large-scale battles before the teacher summons the gods of the wilderness to help in the battle. My love, I will help you while I awaken the Tree Hole King."
