The prophet flew over on the demon-forbidden ship, one of the only three spaceships owned by the draenei, and it only took less than an hour.
The Atama Crystal is a sacred object given by the ancestors of the Draenei. Each piece has unique abilities. For the Draenei who are now struggling to rebuild their civilization, each Atama Crystal has special meaning.
After hearing that the Human Empire had found a gem that was suspected to be the "Brilliant Star", the prophet had a premonition that the lost gem might give new hope to the breathless camp of the living who were oppressed by the undead.
.A very slim hope, but one worth pursuing.
"this..."
In the secret room at the White Tower Port, the dusty Draenei prophet Velen looked at several gem fragments that exuded rich darkness placed on the table. His eyes that contained stars shone with doubts and regret.
"This should indeed be one of the Atama crystals we once lost, a brilliant star that represents endless light and the true meaning of holy light, but...but why did it become so evil, and...why was it destroyed?
"
"Prophet, Tyrion destroyed it."
Jaina explained in a low voice from the side:
"After we fought Tyrion in Dragonblight, we found this crystal among the trophies. Arthas believed that the magic sword Ashbringer in Tyrion's hand was forged with the main body of this dark crystal. He felt that the sword
The aura is very similar to these crystals."
The prophet ignored Jaina's explanation. He glanced back, and the Grand Defender Maraad who came with him immediately stepped forward. This powerful paladin who also fought Tyrion head-on stretched out his hand.
Close your eyes and pass your fingers over the crystal fragments one by one.
The dark magic conflicted with the holy light in Maraad's body. When his fingers passed over each crystal fragment, a bright light and shadow would erupt, just like the ignited lightning sparks.
Everyone is watching this process, which is very important. Once the source of the crystal is determined, maybe they can formulate a method to restrain the evil weapon of the Dark Blade King.
"Yes, Prophet, although the remaining energy is very thin, it is indeed very similar to the aura of Tyrion's sword."
Maraad took a step back, and he said to the prophet with some shame:
"I'm sorry, I didn't discover this at the time. Otherwise, even if we spend everything we have, we still have to keep Tyrion in Northrend. The significance of the Bright Star to the Draenei... is really important.
.”
"No, it's not your fault, Maraad."
The prophet looked at the remaining crystal fragments on the table. He closed his eyes in pain and said in a lost voice:
"Even I couldn't find it, and it's not your fault... The Brilliant Star is obviously contaminated. Although we don't know what caused this pollution, unfortunately, we may have lost it forever."
The prophet's painful expression made everyone look at each other. Human beings did not understand the significance of the Atama Crystal to the Draenei, but it could be seen from the prophet's expression that this thing must be very important, so after a few seconds, Faol
His Majesty asked:
"My fellow believers, the Holy Light teaches us not to dwell on the pain of the past, but to draw strength from the pain and move forward... Although it is a sad thing to have your holy relics destroyed.
, but the young kings and I believe that these remaining fragments of sacred objects are likely to help us find a way to fight against the Dark Blade King..."
Your Majesty looked at the prophet and said in a deep voice:
"We need your help, fellow believers. We need to know all the knowledge and stories about this crystal."
Fao's voice awakened Velen from his sadness, and the latter let out a sigh of relief. He looked at the imitation fragments on the table. After a moment, he nodded:
"You are right, parishioner, indeed... This is indeed a painful thing, but we cannot indulge in it and lose our expectations for the future. Since you want to know, let me tell you."
As he spoke, Arthas personally moved a chair for the prophet. The tall Velen sat on the chair. He stretched out his fingers and stroked the surface of the dark gem. The dark power escaping from the gem was stimulating.
Velen's fingers made him feel a slight sting, but the prophet didn't care. He touched his white beard hanging on his chest, between the glimmer of the Seal of the Draenei Leader on his forehead.
, the prophet told a distant story.
"Atama Crystal, this was once the incarnation of Holy Light, a sacred object given to our ancestors by the powerful Naaru from which it originated. The name of that Naaru cannot be verified, but the crystal he left behind has become a guide for Ai
Reda people cast themselves into the beacon of light. You can never imagine how sacred and brilliant the realm of holy light is when the complete Atama crystal shines in the sun."
Viren's eyes shone with nostalgia, and he seemed to have returned to that era when everything was beautiful. His deep voice echoed in the secret room:
"The Atama Crystal has various magical functions. For tens of thousands of years, it has been guiding the direction of the eredar civilization. However, the arrival of Sargeras destroyed everything. In despair, I took the
The tribesmen who were unwilling to surrender to the devil embarked on the road of escape, and the fall of our civilization also caused the Atama crystal to break. I don’t know if it is the divine will that is disappointed with us, or if it is fate.
So, anyway, it was broken."
"The seven shattered crystals still have their own unique functions. In fact, during the 25,000 years that the Draenei fled, without the protection of the Atama Crystal, it would have been impossible for us to search among the stars.
On the road to survival, the shadow of leaves in the star path will prevent our ship from being detected by demons, and the kiss of luck will allow us to avoid every ambush and trap targeted at the draenei."
The story of the prophet attracted the attention of all the kings, especially the wonders of the Atama crystals, which made everyone unable to help but imagine.
"The Shield of the Naaru protects our flagship. No matter how powerful the demon warship is, it cannot break through its protection. The Eye of the Storm gives us the power to fight back. Even among the icy stars, it can summon the elemental elements that destroy everything.
Strength, and heart of anger... You have seen it before. Under the shining of the red light of courage, the brave Draenei warriors can always fight with the pursuing demons until the last moment."
"The Song of the Soul allows me to show fragments of the future, allowing me to find temporary footholds for my people one after another in the complicated destiny, and the Brilliant Star is the most important. The endless holy light it emits can
Let us stay away from death. Even if we are seriously injured, we can recover quickly under the holy light of the Brilliant Star... A large part of the reason why my people can persist in the long-term escape is
Because of the protection of the shining star."
The prophet picked up a black gem and placed it in front of his eyes. He sighed again:
"And the holy light shining in the Brilliant Star is strange. When believers of the Holy Light bathe in the light of the Brilliant Star, we can always feel that the erratic holy light is right in front of our eyes. It never
It has left us...it is the source of our faith, can you understand this feeling?"
No one answered, and the prophet did not need to answer. He put the crystal fragments filled with darkness back on the table in despair, and said:
"The Brilliant Star, like other crystals, was lost in the war. It was like a nightmare. I don't want to mention those painful pasts, but now, the Brilliant Star, which originally represented endless hope, is shrouded in darkness, which reminds me of
There are some things I’ve overlooked.”
The prophet's expression became confused, and he rubbed his forehead as if he was recalling something.
"Hundreds of years ago, when we arrived in the world of Draenor, we encountered a difficult crash landing. A naaru who was with the draenei sacrificed himself to protect us. It was called Kara...
Kara's body remained among the stars in the world of Draenor. That was the first time I saw the death of a Naaru. It did not disappear, but in the convergence of endless light, it turned into a monster that swallowed all light.
Source of Shadows.”
"That is the endless reincarnation of Naaru. Kara told me that there is no need to be sad. This is the fate of Naaru. From the brightness filled with endless holy light to the shadow that swallows all light, it tells me that this is also the essence of light and shadow. This
This situation is very similar to what Bright Star is currently experiencing."
As he spoke, the prophet looked at Faao Mian, who looked thoughtful, and said:
"I heard, fellow believer, that in the recent war, you also recognized the existence of those priests who practice the way of shadow... This is good, it means that you have finally taken the step towards a deeper understanding of the Holy Light.
At that point, in fact, there are also shadow-walking priests among the Draenei group, but I hid this in order not to arouse your resentment."
"Well, light and shadow, this is indeed a huge research topic."
His Majesty Fa'ao nodded. Being able to become the pope means that His Majesty has a profound understanding of theology. He said to the prophet:
"The Chaldean Bishop is a true believer in the Holy Light. In recent years, he has been researching the subject of light and shadow. He is a trustworthy brother. The shadow priest has indeed made contributions to the empire.
..Of course, we can discuss this later, my fellow church member, do you know what I learned from your story?”
"I'm all ears."
The prophet said softly, and then everyone saw the old Faao Mianxia reaching out his hand and holding the dangerous dark gem fragment in his hand. He looked at the others and whispered:
"If light and shadow are real truths, then does this gem's fall from light into darkness mean that it is part of the transformation of light and shadow? If it can change its energy properties, does that mean that this transformation is bidirectional?
Velen, you have seen the naaru die, and you have heard from them about the cycle they believe in... Then, let us try it ourselves."
As he spoke, the pure and huge holy light in Faao's body followed his fingers and poured into the dark gem. This scene made all the kings stand up in shock, and Arthas even shouted loudly.
shouted:
"No! Your Majesty, this is too dangerous. We should do this. Put it down!"
But it was too late. The holy light shining all over his body was so bright, it was as if he himself had turned into a light point. In the scorching light, everyone could only cover their eyes with their hands with difficulty.
It's like witnessing the resurrection of a golden sun.
In the light and shadow, they heard Fao's low and gentle voice:
"I am very old, children..."
"Buzz"
The dark magic power of the dark gem held by Faol on his fingertips escaped crazily at this moment, and even formed a black hole above the table that swallowed all the light. The only prophet Velen present who did not close his eyes was dead.
Staring at the black hole, he could feel that as the holy light in Faao's body was continuously swallowed by the black hole, the fragments of the bright star that had turned into dark things were also undergoing some strange changes.
"I'm here to help you, parishioner!"
Velen stood up, and the staff of the Redeemer in his hand touched the ground. The power of faith that this prophet had believed in for tens of thousands of years flowed out of Velen's hands like a waterfall of holy light at this moment, and poured into the magic in front of him.
Between the Holy Light of Austria.
"boom"
On this night, in the night sky of Thousand Needles Stone Forest, a bright golden light beam rushed into the sky like a long sword, as if it set the buildings in the White Tower Port on fire.
This beam of light lasted for a full three minutes, causing countless believers who saw the beam to shout for miracles.
And at the moment when the light dissipated, amid the exclamations of Velen and Faol, the young kings rushed forward and looked at the center of the table that was melted by the holy light, and the few crystal fragments that were originally filled with darkness.
It has become a complete holy object... The surface of each one of them is shining with a breathtaking golden light. In the gem, the golden liquid holy light slowly flows under the influence of mysterious power.
circulation.
Just from the appearance, one can see the endless divine perception possessed by this crystal fragment.
"Holy Light! It's restored!"
Velen held Faol's hand tightly. The older prophet was like a happy child. He carefully stretched out his hand and put the crystal fragment in his hand. He felt the energy coming from the gem. He grew
