Chapter 677 The Fantasy Drifting Journey of the Star Mage
After living as the undead body of a lich for 3,000 years, and being isolated from civilized society for hundreds of years, Merry's emotions have long been indifferent, and he only bursts out with enthusiasm when he encounters something that interests him.
Most of the time, his attitude towards everything is very cold.
Sarlayan was not a person who liked to talk nonsense, so he was too lazy to talk around in circles with Meili, so he straightforwardly stated his purpose.
"Convince Dalaran to change its attitude?"
Meri didn't quite understand Sarlayan's intention.
Not too lazy to delve deeper, he simply nodded and agreed.
"Although I don't know what you want to do in Quel'Thalas by repeatedly jumping around, for the sake of your efforts to rebuild the Council of Tirisfal, I will help you with this."
"I don't know who the current speaker of the Kirin Tor Council is. At any rate, I participated in the establishment of Dalaran. They should give me some face."
Sharlayan could tell,
Merry had no interest in the international situation...or the internal struggle in Azeroth, so he did not tell the story about the dispute between Alterac and Lordaeron.
The reason why Merry stayed in Alterac was because
Just because he heard the secrets left by Emperor Thoradin from Sarlayan.
Now that the secret has been studied almost, it is time for him to leave the Alterac region and start a new journey.
According to Merry's plan, he will first go to Dalaran to restart the Guardian Temple, fulfill Sharlayan's request, and also meet this session of the Kirin Tor Council.
After all, the Temple of the Guardian is located in the city of Dalaran. From now on, the Tirisfal Council and the Kirin Tor will never see each other again. It is best to establish a good relationship with the local administrators.
After finishing his trip to Dalaran, Merry will teleport across the sea to Kalimdor, heading to the Barrens to find Aegwynn's whereabouts.
It is said that Saryan is not optimistic about the prospects of Meri's cross-sea trip.
As the barrage said, Aegwynn should be busy thinking of ways to resurrect her precious son Medivh at the moment. Even if her old friend Merry comes to persuade her in person, there is a high probability that Aegwynn will not do it without seeing enough benefits.
Help him rebuild Parliament.
The so-called sufficient benefits here refer to things that are helpful to Medivh's resurrection.
Regarding Medivh, the last guardian of Tirisfal, the barrage provided Sharlayan with a lot of information.
Medivh's life is not a secret among high-level officials in various countries.
I won’t go into details here.
The barrage mainly tells the fantasy experience after Medivh's death.
Medivh's body controlled by Sargeras was indeed killed by Khadgar, Lothar and Garona, and was recovered by Aegwynn who sneaked into Karazhan after the war.
As an astral mage, Medivh's soul did not wither with the death of his body.
His soul was wandering around the universe, accidentally entering the Twisting Nether, and overhearing part of the Burning Legion's plans in his soul form.
After several years of hard work, Aegwynn finally developed the secret ritual needed to resurrect Medivh.
However, this ritual requires a large amount of magic power. In view of the many sins "Medivh" has committed before him, Aegwynn has no face to ask his old friends for help in resurrecting the sinful Medivh.
At the last moment, Aegwynn showed the greatness of maternal love.
As early as when Medivh was born, Aegwynn slowly injected the power inherited from the guardian of Tirisfal into his body, and he only retained a small part of the guardian power used to maintain his youth.
Male mages like Antonidas may find this difficult to understand.
Jaina also personally mentioned to Sharlayan that if she could do it, she would be willing to spend a lot of money to maintain her youthful appearance forever like Aegwynn.
Perhaps this is a different kind of insistence of witches.
In order to resurrect Medivh, Aegwynn resolutely used the last bit of guardian power he had retained.
The moment the ritual was successful, Aegwynn's originally youthful and beautiful face immediately turned old. Medivh's wandering soul in the star realm was pulled back from the distant Twisted Void by Aegwynn's ritual.
The resurrected Medivh no longer had the majestic guardian magic power he had in his early years, and changed from a demigod-level guardian to an ordinary mortal mage.
Of course, the "ordinary" mentioned here is only a relative term. In fact, Medivh after his resurrection still has the strength of the epic realm.
Not long after Medivh was born,
For the safety of my husband and son,
Aegwynn left them resolutely,
Continue on the road to avoid the pursuit of Tiris Arcana.
Growing up, Medivh had only a handful of opportunities to meet his mother.
He had been raised by his father Nielas Ellan, and his relationship with Aegwynn was not close.
The mother and son who reunited after a long separation did not hug each other and cry, but calmly exchanged the information they knew about each other.
Without Sharlayan's intervention, Medivh would have returned to the Eastern Kingdoms a few years later and informed King Terenas of Lordaeron and Kirin Tor Chancellor Antonidas of the Burning Legion conspiracy he had glimpsed in the Twisting Nether.
In order to avoid exposing his true identity and arousing the resentment of the two, Medivh hid his appearance and name and called himself the nameless "Prophet".
Of course, neither Antonidas nor Terenas believed the "nonsense" of this prophet of unknown origin, which led to the "Warcraft 3" plot line mentioned by the barrage.
The alternative orc Thrall mentioned by Sarlayan before is one of the protagonists in this story line.
Just like Medivh's adventure, Sharlayan also knew about the Burning Legion's plan in advance through other channels and made some targeted arrangements in advance.
However, Sharlayan didn't know how to convince the leaders of Azeroth's tribes, including Kael'thas, to believe in such a no-brainer.
No matter how many crimes Medivh committed during his lifetime, at least his name is known to everyone in the Eastern Kingdom.
Moreover, those crimes were not committed by him of his own will, but by the demon king Sargeras forcibly controlling Medivh's body.
Astral Mage, Guardian of Tirisfal, these names sound deceptive, but in the eyes of the fallen titan Sargeras, they are just that.
As one of the most powerful mages in the history of Azeroth, Medivh is still unable to resist Sargeras' control. The level gap between the two is too big.
It was not until he was recalled and resurrected by his mother from the Twisting Nether that Medivh could truly control his body freely and gain the free will he once dreamed of.
Quel'Thalas, which has a long history, still retains a lot of information about the ancient war. Kael'thas's understanding of the Burning Legion is far superior to that of other human kingdoms outside of Dalaran, and he knows Medivh's defeat by Sargeras.
There is a higher acceptance of having control over something.
Sharlayan planned to take time to travel to Kalimdor, and on the condition that Quel'Thalas was willing to help Aegwynn resurrect Medivh, he would persuade her to return to the Eastern Kingdom and help Merry rebuild the Tirisfal Council.
However, this is only a future plan and it is not the time to start it yet.
Sharlayan still has important things to do next, and he will have to wait until the war between Alterac and Lordaeron is over before he can officially set off.
"Oh?" Knowing that Sarlayan also planned to go to Kalimdor to meet Aegwynn, Merry raised an eyebrow and asked: "Do you know Magna too?"
Sarlayan shrugged: "I know her, she doesn't know me."
Meili asked doubtfully: "Then why do you want to see her?"
"It's not that I say bad things about people behind their backs. Due to her experience of being ostracized as a girl, Magna's character... is really not very likable. I don't think she will have a good attitude towards strangers like you."
Sarlayan smiled noncommittally: "I have my own plan. If the plan goes well, maybe I can make time to set off with you."
Regarding the matter of resurrecting Medivh, Sharlayan planned to inform Kael'thas in advance.
Before getting the approval of the Sun King, he did not plan to tell Merry about this unknown plan, so as not to raise unnecessary expectations in him.
After bidding farewell to Sharlayan and the other three, a confused Merry activated teleportation to head to Dalaran.
Before he set off, Tinagosa told him the new coordinates of Dalaran in advance.
Dalaran has floated off the ground, and the coordinates Merry originally knew can no longer be used.
To be precise, it can still be used, but there is a risk of falling to the ground if you teleport rashly to the sky above the giant pit.
After sending Merry away with a confused look on his face, Sharlayan stretched out his hands and patted Valeela and Tinagosa on the heads respectively.
"Okay, it's time for me to set off."
"You two should return to Yongsong Forest as planned. If this trip goes well, I should be home within half a month. Remember to report to Kael'thas for me."
