His eyes were dull, looking at the library that was in a mess after the war.
An emotion called sadness swept through the hearts of the archmage and bishop.
This is Karazhan.
It connects the quiet and peaceful Bright Forest with the reedy swamp passage, which is the lush Deadwind Trail area, where there are thick trees and rugged rocks. It has been a deserted place for hundreds of years.
These are all things of the past.
Just today.
A terrifying curse fell on the tower and the surrounding area, and a dark curtain fell on the Deadwind Path. The bright forest to the west was also affected, turning into a terrifying forest with deep twilight.
The bright forest disappeared.
It is now Duskwood.
One of the culprits of all this is Medivh, who looks gloomy and emotionless in the tower.
And the other person was the reason why Medivh's mood fluctuated so much.
a month ago.
Medivh kept having dreams, and a voice in his dreams kept telling him to go to the northwest of Stormwind City.
Half a month ago.
He finally couldn't bear it anymore, listened to the call from his bloodline, and came here.
He discovered the tower of Karazhan in the lush forest. When Medivh arrived at the tower of Karazhan, the woman he saw in his dream was already waiting there. It turned out that she was the mother of Aegwynn, whom Medivh had never known.
The young Medivh had no impression of his mother. Medivh had no feelings at all for his young mother Aegwynn, who looked almost the same as him.
The status of this mother in his heart was not even comparable to that of King Baratheon's queen, King Llane's mother, and the current Queen Mother of Stormwind City.
Seeing Medivh's delay in arriving, Aegwynn was furious and blamed him for taking too long.
Medivh had no intention of arguing and silently accepted his mother's scolding.
In the following days, the mother and son made up for the regret of not seeing each other for a long time.
Aegwynn was very kind to him.
So good that Medivh soon began to admire his young mother. It turned out that having a mother felt so good.
His mother gave him a dream life, studying, discussing, and exploring arcana together. Even her knowledgeable mother could give him some advice on pursuing the path of the Holy Light.
At first, Medivh didn't know why his mother felt relieved when she heard that he was studying the way of the Holy Light.
Now, Medivh knew why his mother had such an expression a few days ago.
Tears flowed uncontrollably from Medivh's eyes, and the young bishop and archmage clenched his fists.
"The Burning Legion..."
"...Sargeras"
"demon……"
"You've ruined everything for me!"
"..."
Three days ago.
After a few days of a dreamy family life that was short but seemed like paradise.
A shadow fell on Medivh's head.
That time Aegwynn asked him to fully unleash his power of Holy Light. She said she wanted to feel the power of her son's Holy Light.
Medivh worked hard to please his mother, communicated with the Holy Light, and worked hard to bring the Holy Light to the tower of Karazhan.
When the vast light came, Medivh's mother, who had allowed Medivh to enjoy family happiness for a few days, grabbed his hand.
"You must kill me. For the sake of this world!" Aegwynn said to her son.
Medivh's first reaction was one of shock.
"Sargeras! Commander of the Burning Legion, he has taken over my body and soul! I am gradually unable to resist his invasion."
Medivh had heard of these two names. During this period of time, the book his mother asked him to read contained information about two names. They were a terrifying force that sought to destroy the world and conquer everything.
The power of the Legion is irresistible!
"Listen to me. My son, kill me! Preferably with the Holy Light! Kill me!"
Medivh simply couldn't do it. Even if his mother held his hand and begged him to let him do it.
"My child, please remember that in a few minutes, I will no longer be me, I am not Aegwynn, and I will not be your mother."
"What I said and what I did at that time was not my intention. The only thing you should do and must do is to kill me!"
"In this tower!"
Medivh, who was shocked and speechless, was about to ask his mother why she was making such a big joke.
He was too distracted and failed to guide the continuous establishment of the power of the Holy Light, and the Holy Light shining in Karazhan went out.
As the holy light goes out.
Aegwynn let go of his hand.
"This is all so interesting," she said in a cold tone that Medivh had never heard before.
"You can take a look inside for yourself. I have something to do." The mother left Medivh as a changed person.
Then, everything changed.
Two days ago in the morning.
Medivh, who was extremely disturbed, discovered that his mother had changed into a human being, and she seemed to be plotting to kill him.
Two days ago in the afternoon.
Aegwynn led him to the high-rise observatory in Karazhan, where the mother and son discussed the relationship between space, stars and arcana a few days ago.
This time the mother and son were not discussing these issues. Aegwynn said that she wanted to teach him an advanced teleportation spell. As a result, Medivh was sent to the Twisting Nether when he cast it.
Fortunately, when mother and son met for the first time, Aegwynn gave him one of her favorite staffs, Alunes.
In the Twisting Nether, Aluneth gave him the coordinates of Azeroth.
Before the demons drowned him, Medivh, with the help of Aluneth, returned to Karazhan in an extremely thrilling way.
Medivh realized something was wrong.
He wanted to find his mother and ask her why she did this.
Aegwynn was nowhere to be seen in the tower.
When he found her yesterday morning.
"Aegwynn" hid in Karazhan's huge vault. She summoned a large number of low-level demons. As soon as Medivh appeared, he was overwhelmed by imps and hellhounds.
When Medivh was on the verge of death.
The initiator of all this, his mother appeared again, and she used magic to expel all the demons back to the Twisting Nether.
"It's just a trial."
After doing all this, she said to him.
"Obviously, the answers to the questionnaire you submitted in this trial made me very dissatisfied."
After saying this.
Aegwynn left again.
When she turned to leave, Medivh saw two shadows on her graceful back.
One is a terrifying phantom that bullies the planet and dominates the universe.
The other is a very small, but strong and unyielding figure who is trying to resist.
Medivh thought.
You must make a choice yourself.
His choice was to question Aegwynn in the library, and forcefully wanted to baptize her with the Holy Light.
Aegwynn refused.
A horrific battle ensued.
Medivh was no match for her.
He is too immature, and there is another terrifying dark power in her.
When he was about to be killed by her, Aegwynn exploded the carpet under his feet, revealing a dagger inside.
"Take it! Pierce my heart!" His mother, who suddenly became warm again, said to him, "Otherwise we will all die!"
Medivh hesitated.
Seeing her mother's warm eyes gradually become desperate, her expression gradually becoming colder, the dark magic in her hand began to shine again.
Medivh picked up the dagger.
The dagger is a very typical dwarf style, but the size is human size, it is very sharp, and there is no trace of magic fluctuations on it.
While holding it, Medivh even felt a powerful force inside the dagger, resisting the magic on him.
Medivh used it to pierce his mother's chest and penetrate her heart.
Then the curse came.
The dark presence inside his mother roared, and he was driven back into the Twisting Nether.
"My arrogance has harmed me." His mother warned him before she died. "I hope you will never belittle yourself, let alone be arrogant!"
"Take it..." she said.
Her hand grasped the dagger that had penetrated her chest.
"This dagger is called [Zandalar Weeping Blade]. It can kill magic and souls. Find the troll who turned it from an ordinary dwarf refined dagger into what it is now."
"That troll, he knows all this. Don't be an enemy of him, it will not benefit you or the world at all."
In the end she smiled bitterly.
"I didn't expect that it would be his power that killed me in the end."
