In Robbie's impression, Stormwind City is a neat and beautiful city.
But in this era, the old city where people live is a backward and ignorant scene.
Although Stormwind City is a seaside city, the backward old city has obviously not been taken care of by the sewage system. Domestic garbage and feces are piled up like mountains. The old city is smelly, flies and mosquitoes are flying all over the sky, and homeless people on the street corners are covered in filth.
of moths.
The living environment in the old city is quite poor. Most of the houses have poor lighting, wooden structures and crowded layouts. Several members of the family must be crowded together with the livestock.
The black cat guided Robbie through the alleys where sewage flowed, and said seriously to Robbie:
"Remember everything here. Poverty squeezes the people, and the suffering of life tortures the people. The living conditions of the common people are the conscience of a city."
The prosperity of a city and the strength of a country are by no means the glory of the royal family and the nightly singing of the nobles, but the living standards of the lower class people, who are the cornerstone of a country.
The stench everywhere and the horrifyingly dirty civilian areas represent that Varian's rule has not been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He has not done enough and is not a qualified king.
Compared to the grandeur of the royal family, even the roofs were shining with brilliance, the walls seemed to be made of pure gold, and silver was decorated around the windows. The unimaginable luxury and dirty civilian areas left Robbie with
A more profound impression.
Robbie still had memories of growing up in Lakeside Town, a rural life with beautiful scenery. Although the wooden houses inevitably had ventilation from all sides, they were far less dirty and messy than here. In Lakeside Town, it was easy to breathe fresh air.
"The time has come for us to leave."
The black cat raised his paw and pointed at the wall beside him. Ripples like water appeared on the wall. Robbie and the black cat entered the ripples. Just like when they came, they saw a long passage with one door after another on both sides.
door.
Target, twenty-four years of the Dark Portal.
In this year, Jaina invited King Varian Wrynn of the Kingdom of Stormwind and Warchief Thrall of the Horde to attend a summit meeting with the intention of signing a treaty of friendship between the Horde and the Alliance.
However, Varian was kidnapped by the black dragon princess Onyxia on his way to the meeting.
The Black Dragon Princess has been planning for a long time to kidnap King Varian, so why not do it in Stormwind City, which is more familiar to her?
How can the cooperation between the Alliance and the Horde threaten the Black Dragon Princess?
Robbie was very critical of this period of history. If he were the Black Dragon Princess, he would definitely do it more beautifully.
The spring of the 24th year of Dark Portal seemed to be a bit colder than previous years.
Jaina didn't like the stormy weather very much. Such bad weather was very frequent in the coastal kingdom of Kul Tiras. This was one of the reasons why she left her hometown to study in Dalaran.
Now that she has become the ruler of Theramore, the climate is almost exactly the same as that of Kul Tiras. She always feels that this is the torture of fate.
Looking at the soldiers who worked hard in the heavy rain, Jaina quickly sent someone to bring hot tea. These foreign soldiers patrolled and stood guard to ensure that they would not get sick in Theramore's humid climate, and then they were eligible to be sent to the Northern Castle.
Let the orcs eat sick humans, Thrall should complain again.
Thinking of Thrall's terrifying appearance when he was angry, Jaina shuddered and quickly wrapped her robe tightly around her body.
Even though her magic power was strong enough to easily escape Thrall's control, the scene of Thrall biting off her arm still frightened her from the bottom of her heart.
Compared with Thrall who was far away in Orgrimmar, what alarmed Jaina even more was the graceful and luxurious woman by the fireside, the former guardian of Tirisfal, Medivh's mother, the Archmage Aegwynn.
A powerful mage with great potential to change the situation of the battle.
Even if she is unwilling to contribute, the profound knowledge she possesses, some magical structures and formations, and the indestructible magic shield can play an unparalleled role in the defense of a city.
On the surface, Theramore and Orgrimmar are in a state of hostility, but Aegwynn lives in Theramore in the name of assisting Jaina, but has not brought any substantial changes to the Alliance.
History has implicitly told the world the answer: Aegwynn is on the side of the Horde.
"You must be careful, Jaina."
Aegwynn's sharp voice echoed in the room, sounding very permeable:
"After the Battle of Mount Hyjal, the fooled night elves refused to give up and continued to fight the orcs. If it weren't for the bronze dragons and ancient blue dragons who helped train the orc soldiers, Orgrimmar would have been razed to the ground. Jaina
, because Malfurion, Tyrande has never had a good impression of you, and she even hates you."
Facing this archmage whose character was uncertain, Jaina expressed her helplessness, as she would probably be the same after living for a thousand years. Aegwynn complained more than once about the bad situation of the orcs, so what could Jaina do?
Although four years have passed since the Battle of Mount Hyjal, the fooling that stupid deer Malfurion suffered is still a joke among the upper echelons of the Alliance and the Horde.
Compared to Malfurion's ridiculous stupidity, Tyrande's anger was even more terrifying. Recalling that charming and shameful scene, Jaina's face heated up slightly: "I don't think there is anything wrong with occasionally having an affair with a foreign race. Although I am tempted
He fell in love with Malfurion and deceived him cruelly, but it can only be said that he was too stupid."
"But Tyrande wouldn't think so." Aegwynn leaned forward, staring at Jaina with sharp eyes like an eagle: "If I were there at the time, I would never allow you to do that, night elf.
You are a group of extremely stubborn people, and you have blocked the only possibility of peace talks with the night elves."
"Okay, okay, I knew this would happen, and I was wrong." Jaina widened her eyes and said angrily:
"Although Chen Stormstout has solved the problem of feeding the orcs, and I occasionally send some alliance soldiers to the northern castle to give the orcs a change of taste, there is nothing in the Barrens. If you want to fight the elves, you need it.
Ore and wood require weapons, armor, and weapons, so trade must be open. Who else is willing to help the ferocious orcs except those greedy goblins?"
Aegwynn said in a sharp voice: "It's a pity that the goblins are too smart. They will not allow the orcs to use stones as ores in exchange for the most scarce wood and iron tools. They would rather die than give up their interests, so we must find someone even more stupid."
Guys who came to trade with the orcs, oh! How I miss stupid King Terenas.”
"Okay." Jaina held her forehead in pain and sighed: "Where can I find a fool like King Terenas? Such a stupid guy has been eaten by the orcs long ago."
Aegwynn also sighed, and after a long time he slowly said: "The only thing we can do is try King Varian."
After hearing this, Jaina immediately shook her head: "Impossible, the night elves are at war with the orcs, and they are fighting fiercely in Ashenvale. Humans are allies of the night elves. Even normal trade is a naked betrayal, not to mention this kind of fraud.
It is a transaction of such a nature that Varian has never had his head stepped on by a Kodo beast, so he will never agree to such a request."
"Believe me, King Varian is a very suitable target to fool." The former guardian's eyes shone sharply: "As long as Varian and Thrall are allowed to meet, the Kingdom of Stormwind will spare no effort to support the orcs.
In the name of peace, you justifiably betray your allies." (To be continued)
