After recovering, Fording went back alone along the previous route, and sure enough he met the orc from before under the abandoned tower.
The orc told him in human language that his name was Eitrigg.
That night, beside the campfire, Eitrigg told Fording his story: He still remembered that many years ago, the orc tribe was once a noble nation that believed in shamanism.
After the war, Eitrigg finally realized how far the tribe had fallen under the influence of the Burning Legion, and finally broke away from his people and lived a secluded life.
This shook Fording's long-held belief that not all orcs were bloodthirsty and cruel.
The noble words and deeds of the orcs have defeated ancient hatred and traditional prejudice, and won the respect and resonance of the paladins who also value honor and dignity above all else.
Before the two cherished each other parted, Fording vowed never to reveal Eitrigg's whereabouts to the outside world.
Fording, who returned to the city, announced to his people that there was no orc threat in the territory, and that the previous attack on him had been resolved.
However, his deputy, the paladin named Barthiras, a man who had a deep hatred for the orcs because his parents died in the first war, did not give up.
He launched a manhunt with the help of a team of hunters.
Fording saw this and silently prayed for his friends in his heart without saying a word. However, when he saw the orcs being escorted back to the city and trying to break free from the cage and being surrounded by dozens of guards, the noble paladin became angry.
!
Fording was furious and attacked his men.
Tirion Fordring, the former war hero, was taken to Stratholme for trial on suspicion of treason.
Many friends, including his beloved wife Calandra, begged Fording to let go of his sense of honor that put him in this situation, shift the responsibility to "that savage and cruel orc", and make a decision in his favor in front of the jury.
defend.
However, standing in the court, looking at the flag of the Silver Hand, what flashed in Fording's mind was his beloved son Tyran Fordring. This little guy had always wanted to become a Paladin.
As a Paladin, Fording knew that his life was not far from the end; but as a father, he wanted to use this last opportunity to set an example for his son with his words and deeds. The Paladin held up his noble chest, 151
Ten told the whole story.
He doesn't think he has done anything wrong, and he has always adhered to the paladin's creed.
The deeply moved jury could not convict Fording of treason, but the fact of attacking his subordinates could not be avoided, and Fording was fired from the Silver Hand.
With an extremely heavy heart, Fording's old friend Uther personally presided over the ceremony to eliminate Fording's power of Holy Light.
However, Fordring's arguments failed to change the court's decision. The exiled Fordring learned the bad news that Eitrigg was about to be sentenced to death, and he decided to save Eitrigg even if he paid for it with his own life.
On the execution ground in Stratholme, Fording was still subdued by the outnumbered guards without the power of the Holy Light.
At this moment, an orc force rushed in and released all the orc prisoners of war. Fordring and Eitrigg took advantage of the chaos to break out of the siege and fled out of the city. However, Eitrigg, who had been tortured by Barthras, had already
Dying to die, seeing his orc friend about to die, the almost desperate paladin raised his trembling hands and shouted to the sky - a miracle happened, a ray of holy light fell from the sky and enveloped Eitrigg - the power of the holy light saved him from death
Rescue it.
The force that had just rescued the orc prisoners of war came in front of them, and Thrall, the new chief of the tribe, extended his hand and invited Eitrigg to return to the tribe.
Before leaving, Thrall solemnly paid Fordring the courtesy of a Horde warrior.
It was at this time that he said a famous saying that influenced many Paladin players in Dawn:
"Race does not represent glory. I have seen the noblest orcs and the despicable humans. I know some orcs who are as respectable as the noblest knights, and I also know some humans who are like the cruelest undead.
Natural disasters are so evil!”
In the following days, the exiled Fordring lived a secluded life - only when his son Tyran joined the Knights of the Silver Hand, he secretly returned to his hometown once.
When there are more players in the Plague Land in the future, there will be paladins who can receive missions from Fording.
Players from other professions can also rest here. Old Fording will provide some food and clean water. If you are seriously injured, you can get treatment from him.
This exiled paladin has long since regained his strength.
Therefore, the Holy Light is a very wonderful thing. It exists deep in the heart of the Paladin. It changes with the depth of faith, from being deprived of the power of the Holy Light to becoming a powerful ascetic monk.
, Old Fording’s experience seems to be able to explain some problems.
Players respect him very much and affectionately call him Lao Foye.
"Excuse me, can I rest here?" Lu Li turned his gaze away from the huge waterfall not far away and politely asked the Paladin who was chopping firewood.
A dull axe, a pile of demolished wood, no one could see any sign of strength from this humble man.
"Of course, you seem to be a little injured," Fording agreed simply, threw the ax on the ground, turned around and entered the thatched hut behind him. He quickly came out of it with a roll of bandages in his hand.
Old Fording's bandages have helped countless players.
In the game Dawn, residual blood can be restored through potions, but serious injuries or disabilities caused in the wild, since the last game revision, can only be treated in the city. The healing NPCs such as priests and knights in the city are not able to be used by some players.
Skills can also be regarded as an important means for the game to consume the gold coins in the player's hands.
As for the dungeon, you can choose to die and then resurrect the healing profession. Anyway, the experience will not be lost in the dungeon, and everything will return to normal after resurrection.
A tendon in Lu Li's leg was torn by a plague dog. It was a bit steep when walking, which affected his stealth practice to a certain extent. This was one of the reasons why he chose to visit Tirion Fordring.
"You protected yourself very well," Old Fording squatted down next to Lu Li and scanned the various scratches on his leather armor.
"But he was injured after all, a very ordinary plague dog," Lu Li was a little annoyed. He was not a machine, so he would occasionally be careless when it was not dangerous.
"It will heal in a while. My bandage has a miraculous effect on muscle recovery," Old Fording helped Lu Li tie the bandage and brought him a wooden stool for Lu Li to sit on.
"Thank you for your help. How many gold coins should I pay you?" Lu Li sat down and asked casually.
"Gold coins," Old Fording smiled: "Do you think a bad old man living in a place like this would do anything to ask for gold coins?"
"You are a noble man. If you need any help, I can help you," Lu Li said sincerely. He truly admired the character of this old knight.
"Speaking of which, there is really something you can do to help." Old Fording picked up the ax and continued chopping firewood while saying: "There are some carrion bugs around here. Can you help me kill some? I need very solidified mucus."
Make bandages.”
Lu Li stood up suddenly, his expression changed.
This is wrong. Shouldn't the quest "Love and Family" only be triggered by Paladins?
