Although there are also questions similar to Dathrohan's: This old man's blindness is not fake, right?
But Lothar had no desire to continue talking to the orcs. He had not trusted the orcs before, and the female half-orc Garona had gained his trust, but what he got in exchange was Ryan's cold body.
Afterwards, there was a saying that Garona was under the control of a warlock, and Lothar said he believed it, he really believed it.
But when an orc stands in front of him, how should he judge whether he is a good orc or a bad orc? Or, could he be a good orc...but controlled by a warlock?
Therefore, Lothar responded to the request made by the old orc Drek'Thar with some contempt.
"You want the Alliance to maintain peace with the Frostwolf Orcs? But tell me, how to convince those 30,000 troops? If my troops don't assemble, you won't come to ask for peace. Don't you think it's too late to say this now?
Son?"
The Lion of the Alliance spoke sternly, but Drek'Thar didn't show any panic on his face, and instead started talking about unrelated things.
"It is said that you once became old due to magic, but your energetic appearance now means that you have really returned to your youthful state both physically and mentally.
This really makes me feel envious. I once did something wrong and fell into the embrace of evil. Now I have found myself, but I can never get back those years I lost."
Drek'Thar's words finally made Lothar couldn't help but ask.
"Are your eyes blind or are they good?"
The old orc took off his eyepatch without any pressure and showed Lothar his empty eye sockets.
"I'm blind, but I can see everything."
When he said this, Drektar had a smile on his face. It was hard to imagine that a blind person could use the word "see" so naturally.
This time Lothar finally looked at the old orc. Before, he was just curious about what the orc would say when he saw him before agreeing to meet Drek'Thar. But now the old orc's miraculous performance made Lothar put aside his contempt.
.
"Can you tell me how you can 'see'?"
While speaking, Lothar stretched out his hand tentatively and made a "please sit down" gesture. After Drek'Thar entered the door, the two of them just stood and talked.
Sure enough, Drek'Thar walked to the chair very calmly and sat down, and said to Lothar who sat down in surprise.
"Although I lost my physical eyes, my inner eyes were opened. Orcs were not such a violent race before. We had a noble shamanic tradition, we believed in the spirits of elements, and listened to the voices of the world.
As long as the elemental spirits are around us, we are part of nature, and nature will help us see everything clearly."
"everything?"
Lothar disagreed with this. Those who dared to say something so absolute were basically bullshit.
"That's right, it's everything, not only the concrete things happening around us, but also our own destiny..."
"Destiny... is interesting. Why don't you start with fate? If what you say makes sense, maybe I will change my mind."
Since converting to the light of civilization, Lothar has increasingly felt that fate is so elusive. When the old orc mentioned fate at this time, Lothar thought it was just words, trying to persuade him with the mysterious and mysterious "destiny".
If it were anyone else, he might have been fooled, but Lothar knew that his heart was already indestructible, and Alterac was no longer run by a fool like Perenold.
Lothar would also let Drektar talk, just to hear how he could "cheat" him.
I just didn't expect that Drek'Thar would die without making any surprises.
"It should not be the fate of the orcs to bring suffering to both worlds. Please defeat the Horde."
Then, before Lothar could express his opinion, Drek'Thar spoke in a low tone.
"More than ten years ago, Gul'dan used fel magic to bewitch the entire race of orcs, subverting his nominal teacher Ner'zhul. At that time, I also abandoned shamanism and devoted myself to fel magic to become a warlock.
Later, Gul'dan established the tribe using fel energy and demon blood as a bond, and our Frostwolf clan also followed the tribe to Azeroth.
The moment I first entered this world, I felt the elemental atmosphere here that was more active than our world. Although they were much more manic, they were also extremely tolerant, and the elemental spirits of Azeroth accepted me.
I am grateful to Azeroth, which can be said to have given me a new life. Only by regaining the elements can I understand the meaning of what the orcs lost!
Only those who have been deep in the abyss can understand the value of light and freedom. The victory of the tribe definitely does not mean the victory of the orcs!
In this war between the Horde and Azeroth, if the Horde wins in the end, then the orcs will always be kidnapped by the evil energy and will never have the possibility of liberation.
Please send your precious power to the right battlefield.
As for what you just said, if you don't gather your troops, the Frostwolf clan will never come to beg for peace...
This is the best way to deal with it. The human race will never like the orcs, and the orcs are not willing to deal with the human race. If the Dark Portal does not open again, we can never interact with each other until death.
Since the first year of the Dark Portal, no orc from the Frostwolf clan has brought pain to this world.
If you insist on annihilating the Frostwolf clan, we can only take up arms to resist in order to survive. Even if the Frostwolf clan is wiped out, we will fight to the last man.
But this is a meaningless war, and the only people who will benefit from it are the tribes in the south. I don't know who will call the shots for the orcs now, I just hope it won't be Ner'zhul.
His thoughts are more serious than any orc. When he was deposed by Gul'dan, I unintentionally peeked into his heart. If one day he returns like a storm, he will leave an indelible mark on the world.
Mark!
This world includes our world and possibly Azeroth. When I think of this, I feel deep fear. Please stop the madness of the Horde and Ner'zhul and leave the last bit of life for the orcs."
After Lothar listened to Drek'Thar's words, he began to admire this old orc. How far can an orc go for the survival of the tribe?!
What Drek'Thar said can be said to have taken into account both the righteousness and the small details. The most important point is that Drek'Thar divided the orcs and the tribe.
The tribe is not equal to all the orcs. Isn't the "last bit of life of the orcs" in Drek'Thar's mouth worthy of the Frostwolf clan?
Looking at the issue from the perspective of the tribe, the Frostwolf clan's original behavior of leaving the tribe was a deserter, and could even be attributed to a traitor.
If the tribe ultimately wins this war, the fate of the Frostwolf Clan is conceivable. From this perspective, the interests of the Frostwolf Clan and the Alliance are consistent.
There was still a trace of hesitation in Lothar's eyes.
"If it weren't for the interrogation statements of a large number of prisoners during the Second War, I would never believe what you said today. But why do you believe that the Alliance will win? Being on our side will probably make you miserable."
Drek'Thar smiled and pointed at the blind eye.
"This is the fate I can see. Evil will never be able to defeat justice. In a short period of time, evil will destroy many lives and cause a lot of pain.
But one day there will be a justice equal to that evil power, and that justice will destroy this evil. The destiny that the elemental shaman can see is to move towards that justice in the process of constantly finding balance.
Just like today, I can put aside my worries and visit you because I know that you represent justice. As long as you feel the Frostwolf clan's yearning for peace, you will give us a way out."
Lothar began to feel a little unable to sit still, and he even wanted to ask Drektal:
'Have you ever heard of the 'Light of Civilization'?'
Otherwise, what Drektar said is very close to the idea of Light of Civilization. Of course, even if the idea is very close, Lothar will not rub sand in his eyes.
"I need to prove that you are truly peace-minded, and that you want to give the orcs a chance of survival. You can't get away with it based on your words.
If you hate the enslavement and cruelty of the orcs by the evil energy, use your courage to fight back!
If the orcs who have regained their shamanic traditions cannot go to war with the orc 'slave owners', they cannot prove that your shamanic traditions are truly noble.
Orcs cannot expect other races to help you get rid of evil, and you have no right to hide behind the races of Azeroth and feel at ease as the liberated."
Drek'Thar hesitated for a long time before sighing, this is the Lion of the Alliance, powerful and domineering when dealing with the enemy.
"The time for the Frostwolf clan to completely get rid of evil energy is still short. If it comes into contact with war and killing again, it is likely to be lost again. We will not have too many people who can participate in the war."
Although in the eyes of some people, Lothar's request is no different from accepting a certificate of surrender. But the nature is different depending on the position. What Lothar wants Drake Tarna to do is indeed for the benefit of Azeroth and the orcs. It is noble.
