When Sarlayan and his party returned to Farodis' palace, they were immediately warmly welcomed by the Night Watch.
Although Thalayan did not specifically announce it, all the Night's Watchmen who participated in that battle knew that Thalayan, who personally killed Vigfus Bladewind, was a key figure in influencing the direction of the war. All Night's Watchmen who have survived to this day
All thanks to his help.
Elisande was a little surprised by Thalayan's prestige in Farodis' court.
'This kid...is the center of attention wherever he goes.'
Farodis, who heard the commotion, quickly came out personally.
Unlike the other night watchmen who were busy welcoming Sarlayan, Faroldis saw the Grand Magister Elisande standing behind Sarlayan at a glance.
There was a clear look of surprise on Faroldis's face, and he quickened his pace and walked through the crowd to come to a few people, and greeted Elisande with standard upper elf etiquette.
"Grand Magister, I didn't expect you to come. Your presence makes Assuna splendid."
Elisande politely returned the favor and looked at Farodis' soul in surprise.
"Prince Farodis, long time no see, what's going on with you? I thought you had long..."
Farodis smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's a long story. In a nutshell, this curse is Azshara's punishment. She wants us to never be freed."
Elisande's eyes flickered: "I understand."
'Is Azshara still spying on Azsuna?'
This speculation gave Elisande a sense of crisis in his heart.
At the beginning, she decided to be neutral on Suramar's side, but in the eyes of Azshara, who has always been strong and unscrupulous, Elisande's behavior of running away from the battlefield was undoubtedly a betrayal of herself.
Considering Azshara's possible gaze, Elisande silently increased her vigilance.
After Faroldis brought the three of Sarlayan into the palace, he looked curiously at the big package twisting around behind Sarlayan and making a strange "wow" sound.
"This is?"
"A gift for you."
Sarlayan untied the "package" and threw it in front of Faroldis. Valeela tacitly agreed to take action before the package hit the ground, and used a dagger to cut through the rope used to fix and bind it.
As the "package" was unfolded, a rather familiar face appeared in front of Farodis.
Since he was packed up immediately after the war, Fandos looked very embarrassed at this time, and his former arrogance and elegance could not be seen at all.
The wound caused by Sarlayan's headbutt has scabbed over, but the blood that flowed from before covered most of his face, making it difficult to see his true face.
Elisande kindly took action and brought the water element from outside the palace to provide Fandos with some meticulous "care".
"you!"
As the blood on his face was washed away, Faroldis finally recognized the second murderer who had caused the complete destruction of Azsuna and the curse of the Night's Watch.
"Fandos!!"
Faroldis, who was always mild-tempered, grabbed Fandos out of the package with a ferocious expression.
Hearing Farodis's angry shouting, the night watchmen guarding the door hurried in. They thought something unexpected had happened.
"You came just in time!"
The furious Faroldis grabbed Fandos' neck with both hands and hung him in the air.
"Come and take a look! Does anyone know this despicable little man who seeks glory from the Lord?"
The Night's Watch are all ghosts who have survived ten thousand years ago. Given their status, they may not know the aloof Elisande, but they are very familiar with Fandos, a small nobleman from Azsuna.
"tnnd! It's Fandos!"
"Scum! I finally found you!"
"Cut him into pieces! Throw him into the sea and feed him to the fish!"
The excited night watchmen soon attracted more ghosts to watch. Looking at this situation, they could not calm down for a while.
Sarlayan and Valeera did not pay attention to the subsequent ending of Fandos, since they could guess it without even looking.
On the other hand, Elisande watched with great interest the entire process of Fandos being executed by Farodis himself.
They were also the victims of being betrayed by Fandos, and there was a sense of sympathy between the two leaders with similar status.
Facing Farodis's heartfelt thanks again and again, Sarlayan smiled and waved to him with a peaceful attitude.
"No need to be so exaggerated, this is what I promised you."
"If you really want to thank me, help me keep an eye on all the developments in Nathalas Academy."
"As soon as Azshara's people appear, pass the news to the Blue Wing Habitat as soon as possible and let Senegos convey it to us."
Farodis nodded solemnly: "No problem, even if you don't tell me, I will keep a close eye on Azshara, and we still have a debt to settle with her."
It was a rare trip away from Suramar, and Elisande didn't want to return in a hurry. She planned to circle around the Broken Islands to see what changes had taken place in the world ten thousand years later.
Sarlayan didn't want to waste time walking around with the old man, so after seeing off the great mage who had drifted away, he and Valeela returned to Shal'Alan again.
…
Suramar's internal turmoil was quickly calmed down by the energetic Thalyssra.
With the highest authority granted by Elisande, Thalyssra began to drastically reform Suramar.
First, she officially abolished the giant barrier that isolated Suramar from the outside world, and announced that Suramar would be open to the outside world from now on.
This decision not only received cheers and support from a large number of people, but also freed up a lot of magic power for the people in the city to use.
The nobles who were engaging in monopoly business in a closed world were firmly opposed to this. However, any nobles who dared to step out and look for trouble were suppressed by Talisa, and some who wanted to do evil even had their homes confiscated.
In this struggle from the upper echelons of Suramar, the great nobles headed by Melandus, Etaeus and other advisors remained silent, watching the small and medium-sized nobles who wanted to die one after another.
The great nobles have very wide network of contacts, and they have long been aware of the changes in the situation.
The trend of the times is irreversible, and no matter how strong a family is, it may overturn if it bucks the trend.
The big bosses remained silent, and those cannon fodders who were rushing to kill people finally realized that something was wrong. By this time, Talisa had gone crazy and took out a lot of resources from the houses of these nobles who had their homes confiscated.
Where do the social conflicts in Suramar come from?
One sentence can make it clear that because the gap between the rich and the poor is too wide, the people in the lower class can no longer live happily.
According to the barrage, most peasant uprisings throughout the ages broke out this way. In the past, Suramar only lacked a fuse.
This kind of bottom-up riot can easily be exploited by those with ulterior motives, and the so-called change of dynasty is nothing more than a game between big families.
This time, the person leading the public opinion was not someone with ulterior motives, but Thalyssra, who had temporarily taken control of Suramar.
She allocated part of the resources obtained from house raids to the lower-class civilians in the most difficult conditions, removing the source of their resistance.
Those who were mixed in the crowd, shouting slogans such as "Princes and generals should be better off," and trying to fish in troubled waters to climb to high positions suddenly found that it was difficult to incite the people around them.
The vast majority of people are like this. As long as they can still have something to eat and are not completely cornered, how many people are willing to put their heads in their waistbands and risk their lives?
The needs of most good people are met, and the bad guys hidden among the masses naturally come to the fore.
Those who were still jumping up and down were caught by Talisa, and many people even took the initiative to report them, and thus received official reporting rewards.
Thalyssra's many tricks were indispensable for her guidance. Most of these methods were obtained by turning to netizens from other worlds to brainstorm ideas.
I have to say that netizens who are usually all kinds of idiots can still stand up when necessary.
This seemingly massive turmoil lasted only more than half a month.
With Talisara's methods of recruiting one group, dividing another group, and suppressing another group, the already discordant rioting team quickly collapsed on its own, and the situation was gradually brought under official control.
After Suramar City gradually returned to calm, good news also came from the Flannar Underground City.
After a series of exchanges of interests, Justina ascended the throne of the Spider Queen as expected.
After she secured her position, she immediately contacted the Faldorei ambassador Shista, who was based in Shal'Alan, and conveyed to Kael'thas the Faldorei's intention to form an alliance with Quel'Thalas.
After resolving the internal power struggle, Faldorei, who had been busy with internal affairs, learned that Suramar had opened the city.
Led by Kael'thas as the intermediary, Fal'dorei and Sha'dorei started a fierce quarrel against Maimang in Shal'Ellan.
