Chapter 940 The Night Watchmans Long-cherished Wish
After Bwonsamdi suspended research on the curse of the Night's Watch for some reason, Faroldis and other Night's Watchmen did not become impatient.
We have already waited for ten thousand long years, so there is no harm in waiting a few more years.
The curse imposed by Azshara herself using the Tidestone is not easy to break. Even the demigod Lothar Bangsandi, who specializes in the power of death, needs to spend a lot of energy and time to break it.
Unfortunately, Bwonsamdi was away from Hades for several years due to an accident. At the moment, Bwonsamdi is still busy dealing with a large number of affairs that have accumulated in his hometown in recent years, and he is temporarily unable to get away.
Not to mention, just the inquiries from Zandalar are enough to give Bwonsamdi a headache.
Don't get me wrong, what Bwonsamdi is afraid of is not Rastakhan, who has long since lost his spirit after his wife died of illness, but the kings Lo'alaizan who stands behind all the kings of Zandalari.
In Bwonsamdi's words, although Laizan is simple-minded, its strength cannot be underestimated.
Having been worshiped by the Zandalari trolls for tens of thousands of years, Lazan's power has been greatly enhanced by faith.
At least in the Zandalari Islands, except for the blood god Loa, who is actually the man-made ancient god G'huun, no Loa can compete with the kings of Loa in terms of strength.
Sandy is no exception.
And even G'huun, before he gets rid of Odile's seal, may not be able to defeat Lazan who is in his prime and has not been ambushed by mistake.
Bwonsamdi had been reluctant to do this for several years. The souls of a large number of trolls who died in the battle with Kul Tiras could only wander outside the Hades, unable to be guided by the Loa of Death who was not at home.
What Bwonsamdi is busy with is the selection and transportation of these troll souls.
As usual, he will intercept some of the troll souls who are willing to believe in him to stay in the Hades to work. The others will be opened by him through a one-way portal and sent to Oribos in the Shadow Realm for arbitration.
To put it in barrage terms, this is like being away from home for several months, only to find that the vegetables you grew at home are in urgent need of harvest after returning home.
At least for the next few months to a year, Bwonsamdi will not be able to spare any effort to fulfill the promise he made to the Night's Watch.
Farodis and other night watchmen were not concerned about this. After all, Bwonsamdi did not intentionally breach the contract due to subjective reasons, but suddenly encountered an unexpected situation.
For the ghosts of the Night Watch who have a weak sense of time, waiting a few more years is no big deal.
After meeting again after several years, Faroldis still warmly welcomed Sharlayan, who had helped the Night's Watch get rid of the threats of Naga and the undead Vrykul.
"Salay'an! I haven't seen you for a few years. Looking at your dusty appearance, you seem to be as busy as ever."
Sarlayan opened his arms and responded to Farodis's warm greetings, and said with a wry smile: "There is no way, there are always endless things waiting for me. The crisis in Azeroth has not yet subsided, and it is not time to relax yet."
when."
Farodis smiled and patted Saryan on the back: "Don't tense your nerves too much. Occasionally you should take time to relax. Only by combining work and rest can you improve work efficiency."
Sarlayan smiled and nodded in acceptance: "After this period of busy work is over, I should be able to take a good rest for a while."
"Let's not talk about this yet."
Sarlayan put away his smile and showed a serious look: "I came here this time to convey to you the conditions set by Queen Azshara."
"condition?"
Farodis asked in confusion: "What are the conditions? What does she want to do?"
"By the way, when have you seen her? Are you alone?"
Sarlayan waved helplessly, interrupting Farodis's one hundred thousand whys: "Not long ago, it was Queen Azshara who took the initiative to invite me to Nazjatar as a guest."
"During the visit to the Eternal Palace, Queen Azshara and I talked about many topics, including the conditions for lifting the curse of Azsuna's Night's Watch."
"What?!"
Farodis grabbed Salean's arm with some excitement and asked: "What are the conditions she offered?!"
Sarlayan shrugged and said: "It's very simple. As long as you admit to her that you made mistakes back then, she will be willing to lift the curse of all Night Watchmen. I..."
"impossible!"
Before Sharlayan could finish what he said, Faroldis shouted angrily: "I can't bow to that tyrant! History has proven that her decision to collude with the Burning Legion was completely wrong!"
"Her wrong decision not only caused the Empire of Dark Night to fall apart, but the ancient continent of Kalimdor was also torn apart due to the explosion of the Well of Eternity. This sin..."
"Wait, stop for a moment."
Saryan interrupted Farodiskan's impassioned speech in a state of laughter and tears: "No, her request did not extend to this level."
"Although Azshara herself did not elaborate, I read the meaning of her words."
"All she asked for was an apology, without specifying what she was apologizing for... Can you understand what I mean?"
"Uh~"
Farodis was stunned for a while when his chanting was interrupted, and he turned around in circles for a few times with a frown on his face before he came to his senses.
"You mean, I can even apologize to her for accidentally stepping on the cockroach in the Eternal Palace? This will allow her to fulfill her promise and lift the curse?"
Sarlayan rolled his eyes angrily: "If you really dare to say this, you will most likely be held down by Vashj and beaten up. Are you not clearly questioning the professional level of the maids of the Eternal Palace?"
Farodis smiled wryly and spread his hands: "I'm just making an analogy, which means it's theoretically feasible, right?"
Sarlayan nodded helplessly: "Your metaphor is obviously inappropriate, but... that's more or less what it means. As long as you can find a reason to apologize that Azshara recognizes."
"emmmmm..."
The hope of realizing his long-cherished wish was just around the corner, but Faroldis was hesitant to move forward.
"This matter... let me summon the night watchmen to discuss it first."
"By the way, because of the curse, we cannot leave Azsuna. How will Azshara accept our apology? Does she plan to come to the land in person?"
"That's not true."
Sarlayan shook his head and explained: "For some reasons, it is inconvenient for Azshara to leave the Eternal Palace."
"She will attach her consciousness to Vashj as usual and let her accept the Night Watch's apology on her behalf."
"Once the deal is confirmed, she will remotely control the Tidestone from Nazjatar to lift the ten thousand-year immortal curse on the Night's Watch."
…
After praying for liberation for more than 10,000 years, now that hope is right in front of him, Farodis' mood is a bit complicated.
There is a saying that the former governor of Azsuna named Prince is not a person with outstanding abilities, or rather...his specialty is not governing.
According to Farodis himself, he was originally a senior scholar at Nathalas College.
In order to make it easier and more intuitive for the scholars of the academy to connect with the center of Zin Assali, Azshara selected Faroldis, who was relatively qualified among high-level scholars in general affairs ability, to serve as the governor of Azsuna.
In Sharlayan's view, Faroldis' character was somewhat indecisive and unsuitable for the position of political leader. Azshara also chose a relatively taller one among the dwarfs.
But the facts prove that inappropriate is inappropriate.
The mess that Faroldis made later made Azshara, who was sitting in the center, dumbfounded.
If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to show her majesty as a queen in front of the Burning Legion and would not tolerate any provocation from rebels, Azshara wouldn't bother to take action against the tough guys like Faroldis.
That's why Azshara's attitude was so casual when it came to the curse of the Night's Watch. She didn't regard it as an important matter.
After several hours of heated discussion, the Night's Watch finally reached a consensus through the mediation of Faroldis, and decided to apologize to Queen Azshara in exchange for the opportunity to lift the curse.
Sarlayan was just a middleman who passed the message. Now that the Night's Watch had made up their minds, Sarlayan immediately sent a signal remotely through the contact shell that Vashj gave him.
As for how things will develop in the future, Sarlayan does not intend to witness the whole process. He has to rush to Drustvar to ask the old bear Orfa for help.
Before bidding farewell to Farodis, who was in a complicated mood, Sarlayan patted him on the shoulder and said, "I hope you can start a new life. If there is a chance in the future, I will go to the Shadow Realm to talk to you again."
Farodis twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled: "It's a deal, I can't wait to see what the Shadow Realm of the Dead is like in your mouth."
