As long as there is no real succession, many things will not be justified, and the Kingdom of Lordaeron will always feel like its hands are tied when dealing with various matters.
Because of this, ministers including Regent Fording all requested that the Royal City of Lordaeron be repaired as soon as possible, even if only the main roads, some neighborhoods and the palace could be repaired. As long as the necessary areas for the ceremony were repaired, the subsequent ceremony would be held immediately.
The enthronement ceremony.
Otherwise, the orders issued by Caliya today lack authority and cannot issue any truly useful policies.
"So, the Royal City of Lordaeron is almost restored?"
"Thanks to Dig Dihu for his help some time ago."
During the time when David was away, Fording lent several Diggers to the Kingdom of Lordaeron. It was with the help of the Diggers that the repairs of the Royal City of Lordaeron accelerated, and now they have begun to continue.
All preparations are underway for the ceremony.
"By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet! The Grand Duke of Glamorgan!"
The last time he came here, Fording heard that David had become an archduke, which meant that Winter City had become a principality. Apart from being a king in name only, David was no longer a real king.
There's a difference.
"One step closer to achieving our goal."
"Thank you."
David smiled and accepted Fording's congratulations. At this time, there was no need to pretend to be Tilan's loyal minister. He had long stopped hiding his true thoughts.
From the moment he started issuing orders and issuing proclamations declaring that the Principality of Winter would not use the enfeoffment system, many people had guessed the Duke of Glamorgan's true thoughts.
Although the Principality of Winter does not implement the enfeoffment system and you cannot become a lord by serving the duke, it does not mean that you cannot become a noble.
Judging from the previously announced knight treatment, the Duke will not treat his meritorious officials badly.
Therefore, David's men are still full of motivation. They are working hard to make progress, and are looking forward to the day when the Principality of Winter becomes the Kingdom of Winter.
"It's a pity that Mark hasn't come back yet."
"It should be soon! We can return to Winter City in winter at the latest."
The first few people to come to Winter City were Fording, Laura and Mark. They had spent the longest time together and naturally had the closest relationship.
However, as Fording returned to the Kingdom of Lordaeron and Mark boarded the 'flight' back to Earth, Laura was the only one who often stayed in Winter City.
"Sometimes I often think that if I can spend the rest of my life retiring in Winter City, it would be a very good choice."
"Ha!" David didn't wait for Fording to say more, directly shattering the dream of the legendary paladin: "Stop dreaming, if you stay in Winter City, you will definitely become the first paladin in winter.
, commanded countless paladins to conquer the north and south, and became the founding father of the empire."
"..." Fording was speechless. Although what David said was the truth, was it really okay to say it so bluntly? He used to think that David needed to hone his face if he wanted to become a king, but now he realized
David's face does not need to be tempered at all. He has not shown it before because his strength does not allow it.
"Besides, it's impossible for you to be idle."
"That's true!"
Fording once had the opportunity to say goodbye to everything and live in seclusion as an ordinary old man.
But when he knew that his world was about to face a huge crisis, he stood up without hesitation!
Whether it's because of David's influence or Fording in the original world line, he is not the kind of character who ignores the raging evil and quietly finds a secret place to spend the rest of his life.
"In addition, Renault and Sally have been here for a long time, and it's time to return to the Kingdom of Lordaeron."
Renault Mograine and Sally Whitemane have broadened their horizons here in Winterfell. The most important thing is that without Alexandros Mograine fighting each other, the relationship between the two is very stable now.
, no resentment broke out, and the Dread Lord would not let out his dissatisfaction with the old Mograine in his heart, and play a classic drama of a loving father and a filial son.
Without the high pressure of his old father, Renault Mograine demonstrated his abilities very well, indirectly proving his abilities to his father.
In addition, old Mograine has not been able to see Renault for a long time, and he misses his eldest son very much. He has proposed to Fording more than once that his son should come back to help.
David didn't know the specific content of the discussion between the two paladins.
In short, Fording hopes that after Calia Menethil succeeds to the throne as Queen of Lordaeron, Raynor and Sally will return to serve in the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
"Who is the Kingdom of Lordaeron preparing to send to take over the position of diplomat?"
The official status of these two people in Winter City is that they are diplomats of the Kingdom of Lordaeron in Winter City, Paladins, and Holy Light instructors. They are part-time jobs in their free time.
"Taylan?"
"No, Tailan also wants to go back."
Tailan Fording was sent by Old Fording to learn new knowledge and broaden his horizons. He felt that with his son's intelligence, he should have learned a lot in such a long time, and it was time to go back and help him.
As for the person who succeeded Renault Mograine as a diplomat, it was his younger brother Darion Mograine.
"Why are they all from the Mograine family? Is there no one left in the Kingdom of Lordaeron?"
"To be honest, there really aren't many talents left."
The Scourge of the Undead and the Scourge have caused great harm to the Kingdom of Lordaeron. Not only have lives been lost, people have been displaced, the land has been polluted, and a large number of soldiers have died in battle.
It also includes the deaths of a lot of lords and nobles, which is devastating for a feudal kingdom!
There is no one to manage this huge place, and the only people Calia Menethil can use are them, and the outstanding talents of the younger generation are Mograine's son, his own son, and Abidi
The girl of the Si family.
Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that these young people receive key training - being sent to Winter City to learn various knowledge is a key training method, and ordinary people are not qualified to be sent here.
However, not all forces regard Winter City as an excellent study abroad destination. The mage city of Dalaran has another idea.
Although they knew a lot about Winter City from Jaina, they also had some understanding of this city in another world.
But the mages don't think there is anything special about Winter City. In comparison, they value the fact that Winter City is far away in another world: this is simply the most perfect place to deal with some troublesome mages.
The mages of Dalaran have decided to send their most troublesome mage Ronin to Winter City to replace Jaina as Dalaran's diplomat in Winter City.
As for Jaina? She will not be recalled to Dalaran, because in addition to representing Dalaran, she also represents Kul Tiras, so she will continue to stay in Winterfell.
Why did this news come from Fording? Because Dalaran directly sent Ronin to the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
The mage will first represent Dalaran to attend the succession ceremony of the Queen of Lordaeron, and then go to Winterfell.
After arriving in the Kingdom of Lordaeron, Luo Ning directly visited Fording and told the regent of Lordaeron all his upcoming arrangements, so Fording knew all this.
"Luo Ning? He is still so unpopular with fellow mages!"
"This shouldn't be a problem for you."
Although Ronin is not popular with other mages in Dalaran, he is indeed a powerful mage and his character is trustworthy. David should welcome his arrival - as long as he doesn't blow up Winter City.
.
After chatting for a while about things in Azeroth, Fording also asked about the situation in Winter City.
At first, he often came to visit, but then gradually he came less and less. Occasionally, he only came to see the general situation of Winter City. After making sure that everything was fine with David, he did not ask too detailed questions.
I had time today, so I asked some more questions.
Only after asking this question did I know that Winter City has undergone such a big change!
Not only does Winter City cover a wider area, a naval base has been built across the Winter River, there is even a new development plan: to completely connect Winter City, Frostbite Outpost, and Snowfield Castle.
, forming a huge urban agglomeration!
"It's amazing."
Fording has understood what a modern urban agglomeration is and knows that this design is in line with the direction of future development, but after all, he lives in a relatively backward (?) world. The castles, cities, towns, and villages he has seen since childhood have already formed in his heart.
Fixed impression.
Even David's place was initially developed in a way he was familiar with.
As a result, David's Winter City had just begun to look like a big city when it began to prepare for the establishment of a modern urban agglomeration. This leaping development method made him feel a little confused.
"Actually, this is not even a city cluster, it's just connecting the scattered areas in our hands into one."
At least until the entire northern plain is developed, it can be considered a real urban agglomeration, and then gradually radiate outwards.
The ultimate goal is that there is only 'one city' in the entire Brunnia continent, or even only one city, Winter City, on the entire planet.
"It sounds very grand and spectacular." Fording said that he had learned it, and he seriously thought about whether the Kingdom of Lordaeron could do the same thing?
He doesn't have to worry about technology. Since Winter City can do this, it proves that they have relevant technology. He only needs to consider what kind of chips he should use and buy the relevant technology from David.
"By the way, there's something I want to hear your opinion on."
After listening to David's detailed account of the various changes in Winter City during this period, Fording wanted to ask David, an increasingly mature ruler, how he would choose if he faced this kind of problem.
?
"After Her Majesty the Queen succeeds to the throne, should she continue to quietly clean up the effects of natural disasters and restore the power of the Kingdom of Lordaeron? Or should she immediately mobilize the army after initially stabilizing the situation in the kingdom and go to sea with other allies to expedition to Northen?
Virtue?"
Although the succession ceremony has not yet been held, the development direction of the Kingdom of Lordaeron after Her Majesty the Queen ascends the throne has been discussed many times, but everyone has never reached a consensus.
"This matter... From my plan for Winter City, you should be able to see my tendency, right?"
