Live broadcast: Azeroth Chapter 1068 Stromgard’s hot potato
Although the soldiers who returned from Draenor are still called the "Alliance Expeditionary Force", the alliance today is different from the alliance the Expeditionary Force remembers.
Among the five heroes of the expeditionary force, Alleria Windrunner and Kurander Wildhammer can reintegrate into their homeland without any obstacles.
To be honest, I have been using the Anyan app recently to read and catch up on new books. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. Anyan app is available for Android and Apple.】
Falstad, who knew he was not good at domestic affairs, had long been prepared to hand over power to his cousin Kurdran.
Falstad, known as the Dragon Reaver, believed that he was more suitable for killing on the battlefield, and those annoying internal affairs made him dizzy.
If it weren't for the fact that no one among the Wildhammer dwarves could carry the banner, he would have wanted to leave the burden behind and run away many times.
Now that Kurdran, the real lord of the Wildhammer dwarves, has finally returned after many years, the smile on Falstad's face has not disappeared recently. He can finally escape the sea of suffering and return to the sky.
Thanks to Falstad's hard work, the new Three Hammers Council had already reserved a place for Kurdran.
Not to mention Alleria, as soon as she came back, she hugged herself with her three younger brothers and sisters who couldn't wait to rush up.
If the domestic military affairs were not extremely busy due to the need for multi-line dispatching, Leleza would have wanted to come in person to welcome her eldest daughter home.
Considering Alleria's character as free as the wind, Kael'thas adopted Sharlayan's suggestion and did not intend to constrain her with military duties and obligations.
After Alleria returns to the country, she should take over the folk ranger organization Farstriders again.
Halduron Brightwing, the lazy dog, can't wait for Alleria's return. He has even made an appointment with a sultry friend to go to Happy Street in Unicorn City to celebrate.
As for how they want to celebrate...well, even "honest man" Lalas can easily guess it.
Compared with the above two people, Danas and Khadgar's situation is quite special.
Dalaran is Khadgar's hometown. Khadgar, who was only 17 years old, received a mission from Antonidas and was sent to Karazhan to serve as a spy in the name of studying, monitoring every move of Medivh, who had an increasingly weird temper.
After Medivh's death, Khadgar, as the only apprentice of the Astral Mage, naturally inherited all his inheritance, which also included the tower of guardians, Karazhan, and the large number of treasures and books collected in the tower.
Because Khadgar refused to open Karazhan to Dalaran, Antonidas was angry that he had let down Dalaran's cultivation, and the relationship between the two parties almost completely broke down.
Now that Antonidas has retired, the newly appointed Luo Ning is not as rigid as the old Speaker.
Thanks to Ronin's proactive overtures, the relationship between Khadgar and Dalaran has tended to ease.
However, it cannot be done in a day or two to completely eliminate the old grudges. Before that, Khadgar plans to continue to settle in Karazhan and deal with the historical issues that he should have solved long ago.
Compared with Khadgar, Danas' situation is more complicated.
In order to pave the way for his son Garin to succeed to the throne, Danaus was exiled from the political center of Stromgard by Solas with guilt.
It is certainly impossible to say that Danas has no complaints in his heart about this. Danas thinks that he is not so open-minded yet.
Anyone who is not blind can see that Galin is a idiot who only knows how to spend time and debauch.
In terms of ability, he is not even qualified to carry Danas' shoes.
But Solas chose Garin, who was closer by blood, and gave up on Danas, who was very popular in the country.
Ironically, Galin, who couldn't wait to ascend the throne and enjoy himself, stabbed his old father in the back who had pinned all his hopes on him.
Solas, who lived a wise life, made the stupidest mistake in selecting his successor.
Under the trusteeship of the Regency Council, the Kingdom of Stromgard, which had suffered from internal and external troubles, had been living in misery over the years. The members of the Council dreamed of waiting for the return of King Danas.
But the wishful thinking of the Regent Council ignored one of the most essential issues - Danas's own wishes.
They unilaterally believe that as a descendant of the Trollbane family, Danas should naturally take over the throne that has been vacant for a long time, lead the Kingdom of Stromgard back on track, and embark on the road to recovery.
However, Danas said "no" without hesitation when facing the Regency Council.
He refused to return to Stromgarde to rule on the grounds that he was an exile.
This was not because Danas was deliberately showing off his temper. After learning about the current situation of the Kingdom of Stromgard from Sarlayan not long ago, Danas thought deeply and finally made the decision to refuse to return.
After Turalyon disappeared, Danas, who urgently took over the position of leader of the expeditionary force, has been thinking hard about the way out for the expeditionary force.
Years of fatigue have left Danas' body with obvious signs of premature aging, as evidenced by his rapidly receding hairline and gray hair on his temples.
There is a saying that there is a beginning and an end. The expeditionary force was brought back from Draenor by Danas. As a leader, he has the obligation to help these old brothers who have been away from home for nearly ten years reintegrate into their familiar yet unfamiliar hometown.
Danas doesn't want to think about other issues before completing this job.
Moreover, Stromgard has been governed without a king for so many years. Although life has been difficult, the country's political system can still function normally, and it does not necessarily require a king.
Due to the serious differences of opinion between the two sides, Danas may continue to fight with the persistent Regent Council for a long time.
This situation made Sarlayan a little funny.
Others are trying their best to seize power in their own arms, wishing they could sit in the position of the most powerful person forever.
The two weirdos, the Stromgard Regency Council and Danas, are desperately pushing their rights to the outside world. They can only say that they are not a family and they will not join the same family.
Of course, the main reason is that Stromgaard's governance pot is so hot that no one wants to...or dare not take it at this time.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Sarlayan heard Valeela mention before that due to the regency council's failure to fundamentally improve the people's livelihood in the kingdom, the citizens of Stromgard have long been complaining.
.
The people of Stromgard, who are full of martial virtues, often organize groups to apply for "free fighting" in front of the council members. If not handled well, it will develop into a chaotic fight between the council members' guards and "enthusiastic" citizens.
In the past year, six congressmen have been bedridden at home due to "physical discomfort", and the speaker is trembling on his way to the palace for work every day.
The Speaker and MPs, who were worried about their own safety, couldn't wait to throw this hot pot away, and Danaus of the Trollbane royal family was the best person to take over.
Danas is not stupid either. After learning about the current situation of the Kingdom of Stromgard from Sarlayan, he did not want to be a poor scapegoat at this juncture.
Even if he really wants to go back and take over the throne, Danas still wants to stage a genuine return of the king.
It has to be said that sometimes plans cannot keep up with changes.
With the defeat of Kazzak, the local war in the Cursed Land gradually came to an end.
Without the interference of the Burning Legion, the Alliance began to take over control of the Dark Portal in an orderly manner.
Through the introduction of the senior leaders of the expeditionary force, the diplomats coming from Stormwind City are trying to establish preliminary diplomatic relations with the Mag'har orcs and arakkoa exiles in Draenor itself.
While Danas, who was staying in Nethergarde Keep to deal with the issue of the expeditionary force's return home, was still busy arguing with the Regent Council, Sarlayan suddenly received the latest intelligence from Valeera and Jaina from the front line of the Sodoril River.
"Ah this..."
After reading the contents of the report, Sarlayan rubbed his brows with a wry smile.
"What a coincidence. Could this be considered God's will?"
As a secretary, Stellagosa curiously took the report from Sarlayan and browsed through it at a glance. A rather strange expression appeared on her face.
"This...why is Solas pulled up by a natural disaster at this time?"
Sharlayan had long known that the Scourge was trying to resurrect Solas as an undead, and he, with his rich combat experience, would lead the Scourge's increasingly large undead army.
Because Gadin was punished for failing a mission not long ago, the lich sent by the Lich King to dig graves in the Arathi Highlands was named Leth Frostwhisper, and he was also an elite lich with considerable strength.
This was not the first time that Lyth Frostwhisper had resurrected the undead. While Stromgard's army was still fighting the witherwood trolls and ogres, he successfully entered the Royal Cemetery of Trolbane.
Lyth Frostwhisper did not report to the Lich King immediately. He easily awakened the resentful Thoras from the grave according to the past practice of resurrecting the undead.
The next development was completely beyond Lais Frostwhisper's expectation.
Just when he was planning to put the control network built by the Lich King using the Helm of Dominance on Solas, who was still a little confused, the first-generation hero of Stromgard suddenly became angry and attacked Thoras with three punches and two kicks.
·Shuangyu and most of the subordinates he brought were torn into pieces.
As long as the phylactery is not destroyed, the lich is immortal.
When a young lich who narrowly escaped used the phylactery to revive Frostwhisper, Thoras had long since escaped.
Lyth Frostwhisper, who knew he was in trouble, bravely told the Lich King about the unexpected situation in Northrend, who was watching the progress of the situation in Lordaeron.
Ner'zhul is very annoyed that his lichs have made mistakes one after another, but now is not the time to hold Laith Frostwhisper responsible. The top priority is to capture Solas first.
Relying on the Helm of Dominance's powerful ability to sense the undead, Ner'zhul quickly captured Solas's whereabouts.
Just after waking up from death, Solas regained control of his body with amazing willpower and obsession.
Of course, after Solas escaped, he immediately hid his identity and returned to the kingdom's capital, Stromgarde, to inquire about the news.
After learning that Galin, the traitorous son who stabbed him in the back, had been missing for many years during the war and was probably dead, Solas felt lost for a moment and didn't know where to vent his resentment.
It happened that at this time, a passerby casually mentioned that Danas, who had followed the expeditionary force to garrison in Draenor, was about to return. Solas, who still felt guilty about his nephew, decided to go to the Cursed Land to meet him in person.
Sarlayan patted his forehead with a wry smile: "Counting the time, Solas should be arriving soon. I wonder how Danas will feel about this reunion that spans life and death."
"Surprised more than happy? Or happy more than surprised?"
