For immortals, eight months was just a blink of an eye. Kael'thas didn't think there was anything strange about Sharlayan's disappearance for the past few months.
After all, Sarlayan used to travel around the world a lot.
Although he was very curious about the situation in the Shadow Realm, Kael'thas still had a lot of government affairs to deal with and could not spare time to listen to stories.
Sarlayan shrugged and said with a smile: "I will take the time to record what I have seen and heard in the Shadow Realm. The written description is not as exciting as my oral narration, but it can at least give you a certain understanding of the distribution and current situation of the Shadow Realm's forces."
Kael'thas smiled and nodded: "That's good. I can take time to read it before going to bed. Then I will wait for your masterpiece."
"Oh, by the way, you must be careful when you go to Hillsbrad."
When he mentioned the situation in the Kingdom of Alterac, Kael'thas's expression became serious.
"At the invitation of King Inseden, part of Gilneas's army is still stationed in Hillsbrad Foothills, and they will also participate in the Battle of Durnholde."
"During the Battle of Alterac, Gilneas contributed a lot, but in the end it was Quel'Thalas who gained the most benefit who apparently did not intervene in the battle. This made King Zeon quite annoyed."
Kael'thas smiled wryly and shrugged: "You also know Jean's stubborn character. When we attack Durnholde Castle this time, he will probably take the opportunity to make things difficult for you. You can handle it according to the situation."
"oh?"
Sarlayan touched his chin thoughtfully: "Genn Greymane?"
"That's right. After all, Yin Seton was raised by him when he was in trouble. It's normal to be dissatisfied with the distribution of profits after the war."
"Okay, I will maintain restraint and courtesy and try not to argue with him."
…
After Sharlayan set off from Quel'Thalas, Valeera followed in his footsteps to Silvermoon City and began to pay close attention to the developments in Blackrock Tower remotely.
Stellagosa stayed in Unicorn Town, helping to take care of territory affairs while checking Tinagosa's learning progress in the past few months.
Onyxia, on the other hand, completely let herself go. After returning to Unicorn Town, she plunged into the entertainment street. She probably didn't want to take any more jobs in a short period of time.
Sarlayan did not intend to force Oni out to work, considering that the black dragon clan was not far away from the civil war, and she would be busy in the future.
Sharlayan was not the only one who came to Silvermoon City this time. Jaina also met her former mentor Kael'thas after a long absence.
However, Valeera and others knew that this was just an excuse for Jaina, who just wanted to spend more time alone with Sharlayan.
After bidding farewell to Kael'thas, Sharlayan asked Jaina to open the portal to Dalaran.
Ever since Dalaran was transformed into a floating city and raised into the sky, Antonidas has been considering whether to move Dalaran to other areas to completely get rid of Lordaeron's geographical influence.
The past of Arthas coming to harass Jaina every three days is still vivid in his mind. Now that Arthas has been released from the confinement room, Antonidas is worried that he will disturb his beloved disciple's study again.
However, considering the problem of the magic network, it is still debatable where to move. At least it must ensure that the new home has a sufficient supply of magic power, otherwise the mages resident in Dalaran will jump out and stage a protest march in minutes.
At this stage, Dalaran is still suspended above the shores of Lake Lordamre.
Sharlayan's destination is Durnholde Castle in the southeastern part of Hillsbrad Foothills, which is relatively close from Dalaran.
It just so happened that starting from this direction could also avoid the Gilnean army stationed at the entrance to the Alterac Snow Mountains. Sarlayan did not want to waste time and the stubborn Gen Bianjing.
"Oh? Isn't this Sarlayan? Long time no see."
When he saw Antonidas again, Sharlayan felt that the Kirin Tor Chancellor seemed to be older.
"Good day, Master Antonidas."
Sarlayan politely touched Antonidas' chest and saluted: "Thank you for taking care of Jaina over the past few years. Her progress is visible to the naked eye."
"Haha~"
Antonidas smiled and stroked his long white beard: "Gianna is my apprentice, of course I will teach her carefully, but..."
A bitter smile appeared on the old mage's face: "I have never encountered a person as talented as her before, and there is not much I can teach her."
Sarlayan was not surprised by this. Jaina's talent was already very high. Coupled with her crazy enthusiasm for learning, the fact that Antonidas could persevere until now was considered a profound knowledge.
Jaina has made it clear that she wants to leave Dalaran as soon as possible. Like Valeera and others, she has been following Sharlayan for a long time.
[Dai Lin cried and fainted in the toilet. It’s really a bad choice for a female student.]
The barrage mentioned Daelin, and Sarlayan asked Antonidas about the battle situation in Howling Fjord.
Antonidas: "The attack on Kul Tiras is progressing quite smoothly. It is said that we have already penetrated the interior of Utgard Castle...right, Jaina?"
"Yes, mentor."
Regarding the information about Kul Tiras, Jaina, the daughter of the sea, knows more details.
"My father had written to me before. In the letter, he complained a lot about the complex terrain inside Utgard Castle. Street fighting in the city was very difficult."
"However, he mentioned in the letter that he was confident that the war could be ended within the first half of the year and he could chop off Yin Milong's head with his own hands."
Dai Lin is not a person who likes to talk big, and his judgment is trustworthy.
If the Dragon-Destroying Vrykul had no other trump cards, the outcome of this war would have been doomed.
But Sarlayan always felt a little uneasy: 'Is it really that easy? Yin Milong's moral standards are very flexible. If he is forced into a corner, who knows what crazy decisions he will make.'
The Howling Fjord is far away in the Northrend continent in the Arctic. Thalayan is temporarily unable to reach something because of something, so he can only tell Jaina about his worries and ask her to write a letter to remind Daelin.

After chatting with Antonidas for a while, Saryan was not surprised to hear the detailed timetable of his retirement plan from him.
According to Antonidas's expectations, he should officially step down from the position of Speaker after Midsummer's Day this year, and will no longer hold any public office in Dalaran from now on, so that he can enjoy his old age with peace of mind.
Afterwards, the young and strong Archmage Luo Ning will take over the position of Speaker and lead Dalaran forward.
In his prime, Luo Ning is more aggressive than Antonidas. Under the protection of the retired Speaker, Luo Ning plans to make some reforms to Dalaran's existing system, eliminate those outdated old rules, and add some background of the current era.
the new regulations required.
According to the agreement between Dalaran, Kul Tiras and Quel'Thalas, Jaina will obtain a seat as a Kirin Tor councilor after advancing to Legend, further strengthening the cooperative relationship between the three countries.
Having successively received the knowledge of the three magical holy places of Quel'Thalas, Suramar and Dalaran, and received the guidance of the blue dragon Stellagosa, Jaina's total knowledge reserve is quite considerable, and has even surpassed
Several of her mentors.
As the saying goes, the master leads you in, and cultivation depends on the individual.
The amount of knowledge that Jaina has absorbed is enough. What she needs to do next is to accumulate it, slowly digest that knowledge, and improve her strength step by step.
In the past six months, Jaina spent most of her time studying on her own, and Antonidas really didn't have much to teach her. He mostly talked about some of his own experiences and lessons.
After bidding farewell to the reluctant Jaina, Sarlayan embarked on the journey again. He transformed into the form of a sharp-tailed swift and flew towards Durnholde Castle at full speed.
As Lordaeron voluntarily withdrew all remaining armies from Hillsbrad, the Kingdom of Alterac finally essentially reclaimed this fertile hilly region as its own.
The two most important towns in Hillsbrad are Tarren Mill and Southsea Town. Southsea Town is the most important seaport of the Kingdom of Alterac and is responsible for maritime trade with friendly countries.
At this stage, the Kingdom of Alterac is unable to build a navy and can only entrust the Kingdom of Kul Tiras to provide protection for the trade routes leading to Southsea Town.
Durnholde Castle near Arathi Highlands and the Hinterlands.
It is precisely because Durnholde Castle is relatively far from the core area of Hillsbrad that Lordaeron has not put much effort into it before, which makes Blackmore become the overlord of this area.
Sarlayan crossed the rolling land of Hillsbrad from the high road between Southsea Town and Tarren Mill, and soon saw Durnholde Castle with guards on its walls.
"Sure enough, the war is about to break out."
From the air, Sarlayan could clearly see the Ravenholdt thieves hiding near the castle with his sharp eagle eyes. They had been paying close attention to Durnholde's movements.
"So……"
Withdrawing his gaze, Sarlayan cast his eagle eye technique towards the city.
