"That brutal monster is... a troll? A strange troll."
A tall figure, hidden in the clouds in the distance, used magic to peek at the battlefield in the center of the horror island.
This guy hiding in the clouds has blue eyes, long ears, long white hair and a slightly fair complexion. His appearance is similar to that of Kaldorei and Quel'dorei, but he is also
different from them.
There is no doubt that this is another variant of elves. There are too many types of elves, and they have fickle physiques.
Prince Tortheldrin was hiding in a safe place, spying on the Dread Island Nagas led by Vashj as they fought against Shandris and Tonatiu.
Tortheldrin, tens of thousands of years ago, he was a member of the upper echelons of the Kaldorei Empire, an upper elf among the upper elf.
Before the invasion of the Burning Legion, Queen Azshara, who was still the Light of Light, assigned Tortheldrin to keep some very important magical tomes for her.
So Tortheldrin secretly led a group of night elf mages to the southwest of Kalimdor, which had not yet been divided, and built a low-key and beautiful elf city at the current location of Feralas.
The name of the city is Erressalas, and it is located in a huge valley.
Yes, Feralas was then part of a vast valley that stretched across all of South and Central Kalimdor, ending in a lake in the far east that is now the Shining Plains and now the Salt Desert Plains
, it was once a big lake!
Tortheldrin led some of the upper elves and lived a peaceful life in the city. Among them, there was a group of powerful arcanists called Syndra.
After the Cataclysm broke out, the Highborne found that their connection with the Well of Eternity was severed.
Having lost their strength, they became lethargic and seemed unable to escape the fate of defeat.
At that time, Torsedlin decided to find a new source of power and spent decades searching.
The helpless Torsedlin found that the only feasible way was to steal energy from their enemies, the demons.
To this end, with the support of many elves, Prince Torsedrin, who was praised as Prince Sindra, built many towers for controlling magical power. The network composed of these towers created a force field.
Can trap powerful demons permanently.
Through this system, elves can absorb the power of demons and satisfy their thirst for magic.
The elves summoned the powerful demon lord Immortar, which is a lord-level demon among the two-headed dog demons. Although it is very powerful, its power is controllable, allowing the elves to feed themselves without easily breaking through the cage.
If they were replaced by the Abyss Demon King or the Dread Demon King, they might be even more powerful, but the Syndras were not sure of controlling them.
After successfully trapping Immortar in the force field, the elves began to greedily absorb Immortar's energy. The poor two-headed dog demon lord who had traveled through several worlds suddenly became Cinder.
Pull our batteries...
However, Tortheldrin and Syndra's senior officials did not foresee a problem. The demon lord's energy was not infinite, it was not the Well of Eternity, and even its status in the legion was only average.
Thousands of years have passed, and the source of magic has gradually dried up.
The powerful Immortar is about to be sucked dry, and Elre'Thalas is beginning to fall into an energy crisis.
Over the past hundred years, Syndra and Tortheldrin have shut down many energy-consuming devices in Elre'Thalas and abandoned many areas of the city in order to save energy, gradually shrinking into the core of Elre'Thalas.
However, Immortar continues to slump, and his energy is getting less and less. If he continues, the demon lord who cannot die will be sucked dry by them.
The energy crisis has plagued Tortheldrin for hundreds of years, and for decades, the Syndra princes have been hoping to solve this problem.
He has thought of many ways, some are currently being tried, and some have failed.
Tonight, he originally wanted to try to summon a demon similar to Immortar, but when he was studying the summoning circle, he was disturbed by the earth-shattering arcane fluctuations southwest of Elrethalas.
Tortheldrin has not sensed this pure arcane energy for many years, compared to the demon's abundant but turbid energy.
Arcane energy is like clear water, while demonic energy is like a pool of stagnant water that can save lives but is stinky and even has corpses floating on the surface.
Torcedrin, who was attracted by the arcane energy, knew clearly that this arcane energy was caused by the Fallen Queen. For the energy crisis in Elrethalas, he still came to the scene and saw Vashj and Shandris. conflict.
Vashj, Tortheldrin could not recognize her. After all, in the past, Vashj was so dazzling and outstanding. She was a famous beauty among the Highborne and was deeply loved by the Light of Light.
The ghost he looks like now is really unrecognizable.
But Shandris Yuyue was an old acquaintance of his.
It's not that they met tens of thousands of years ago. At that time, Tortheldrin was a noble among nobles and a member of the High Elves.
Shandris is just the daughter of an ordinary Kaldorei commoner, a little Kaldorei girl. How could he come into contact with the daughter of a pariah?
They became old acquaintances because later on, in order to monitor the Nagas and be wary of Prince Tortheldrin, the new Kaldorei regime set up a fortress, Feathermoon Fortress, in Feralas.
Shandris is the main person in charge of this fortress, and Tortheldrin is one of the unsettled elements she mainly monitors.
Syndra and the new Kaldorei had many interactions in the forests of Feralas, but none of them could be said to be friendly.
The new Kaldorei are wary of Syndra, fearing that they too will become fallen elves.
The Sindras used to be upper-class nobles, but now they see that the former untouchables dare to threaten them, even hate themselves, and have good tempers. It's strange.
In several conflicts, it was of course impossible for the leaders of both sides not to clash, so they gradually got to know each other.
Regarding Prince Tortheldrin's evaluation, Shandris Feathermoon said in a letter sent to Nordrassil that he "is a responsible leader. But the end justifies the means, and we need to be wary of him and his Followers.”
Comments on Shandris...
"He is really a guy who is not afraid of death. In order to kill more enemies, he is willing to take the risk of being attacked. Instead of maintaining the shield given by the moon god, he uses all his strength to attack the enemy with the power of the moon god."
Prince Torsedlin felt very troubled by this opponent that he had not dealt with for hundreds of years, but he also admired him a little.
He couldn't do this kind of thing of risking his life to kill the enemy.
As a standard mage who has enjoyed a noble life for tens of thousands of years, Prince Torsedlin's fighting style always has the premise of protecting his own safety. He will only consider killing the enemy when he is safe.
It is probably this very cautious character that makes Torsedlin, who was originally a positive figure, gradually move towards being abandoned by the public.
In the original plot of the game, for the sake of safety and caution, he finally chose not to continue summoning demons, but to reduce the number of Syndra and maintain the continuity of Elre'Thalas in a conservative and prudent manner.
Then there was an influx of adventurers. Needless to say, you also understand the consequences.
Compared to Shandris and Vashj's pair of cat-like eyes, which looked more and more familiar to him the more he looked at them, even in the form of a naga, Tortheldrin was deeply impressed.
In comparison, Tonatiu, who was covered in blood and was fighting thousands of naga as a single troll, didn't look so conspicuous.
No matter how strong his fighting power is, no matter how bloody the battle scenes are, in the eyes of an upper elf noble, prince, or mage like Prince Tortheldrin, he will probably only get a "tsk..." a common man who can only fight hand to hand. The energy of arcane magic will tear him apart.
you!"
To put it simply, in the eyes of mages, warriors are nothing more than a plate of food.
He continued to observe the battlefield.
I hope I can gain something from this for Eretharas.
Torcedlin, he is also a leader who sacrifices everything for the people.
