Azeroth Shadow of the Moon

Feralas is a valley area surrounded by mountains. During the night empire period, this was the far southern frontier, and there were relatively few night elves living here.

But it is precisely in this uninhabited barren mountains and mountains that one of the six major cities of the Dark Night Empire, the hidden capital - Elesalas is hidden.

Queen Azshara built Eldre's Thalas to preserve the Night Empire's most valuable arcane knowledge.

In order to avoid being coveted by the opposition forces, Queen Azshara ordered a governor named Torsedrin to be stationed here.

Torsedrin established a secret organization named Syndra after taking orders. They swore to protect Elesalas from generation to generation and not let the city's secrets be opened to any outsiders.

Few people in the Night Empire knew Azshara's true purpose of building this border city, and even Malfurion thought it was a nail the Queen had put in to stabilize the border.

The three Kirk ships of the expedition docked steadily on the big island in the west of Feralas. Andrea was too lazy to think of another name, so he continued to use the name he remembered and named it Sardo Island.

Sardor Island used to be part of the outer city of Eresalas before the Great Crack, and there are still many typical night elf-style architectural ruins on the island.

Another larger island can be seen from the south of this small island, but Andrea and others don't need it for the time being, so they simply established an outpost on Sardo Island.

The former Elesalas occupied a very large area, and the city scale spanned the north-south longitudinal road in the middle of the Feralas Valley.

But when Andrea personally led the marines to land in Feralas, what caught their eyes was a large area of ​​ruins buried by virgin forest.

The southern city of Eresalas was completely abandoned. On the way, the marines were continuously attacked by wild furbolgs and gnolls blocking the way.

After easily repelling this group of mobs, this elite troop of thousands of people, led by Andrea, arrived at the gate of the dungeon group, which was later called the Baker of Doom, the core northern city of Eresalas.

Although Elesalas of this era gave up the southern outer city, the thick marble gates outside the core city are still tightly closed, keeping the city's secrets firmly inside the gate.

The closed gate showed no sign of opening, not even a single night elf could be seen around the gate.

Andrea ordered the marines to temporarily set up camp on a low slope in front of the gate, and he arranged for the accompanying raptor druid to explore the city from the air without showing a trace.

...

"it is as expected."

After listening to the reports from the scouts, Andrea nodded thoughtfully.

There is no trace of the defensive magic circle in the main city of El Salas, and Syndra, who lacks the source of magic power, is already unable to maintain the defensive magic circle.

"Linus."

"exist."

Hearing Andrea's call, a well-dressed highborne arcanist stood up.

"You will take the lead. Lead the Highborne from the Marine Corps to visit Eldre's Salas, and try to convince Prince Torsedrin to cooperate with us. I will also pretend to be a follower and walk with you."

"Yes but……"

Seeing Linus hesitate to speak, Andrea encouraged him to continue talking.

After calming down, Linus asked hesitantly, "What if they don't want to meet us? As far as I know, most of Syndra's members are scholars who are obsessed with research."

"As long as the right research environment is in place, their willingness to communicate with the outside world is quite low."

Andrea smiled meaningfully, "You also said that there is a suitable research environment."

"With the Well of Eternity shattered and the Highborne losing their source of magic power, do you think these Syndras can really have a relaxed research environment?"

"Besides..."

A strange gleam flashed in Andrea's eyes, "I'm curious, how Syndra survived the two hundred years of addiction, the taste of the onset of addiction...Linus, you should be very clear."

"yes……"

Recalling the weakness and intense irritability he felt after the Well of Eternity was destroyed just after the war, Linus couldn't help shivering.

Relying on his own personal experience to push others, he does not think that Syndra can resist magic addiction for more than 200 years.

...

Linus was originally a Moon Guard who guarded Zin-Azshari. He was born into a prominent family of the Highborne called Starscar.

Affected by the cataclysm, the family residence of the Starstreak family in Xin Aisa Li sank into the sea. Only Linus, who was forcibly recruited to expand the portal beside the Well of Eternity, escaped.

Unlike some of Anarsis's meddling Highborne, Linus has a strong enterprising spirit.

This is also the most important reason why he is willing to follow Andrea to leave Anakis, who is like a pool of stagnant water, to establish a new and more dynamic force.

Picking out the few Highborne in the Marine Corps, with Linus as the leader, the group ignored the heavy city gate by using the flash technique, and directly entered the core city of Eldre Salas behind.

Located at the outermost edge of Eresalas is the Edreth area, which is the city gate trail, but at this time this area has long been abandoned like the city gate. Linus and others came to the trail located on the trail with doubts and puzzles The civilian area at the end.

Following the cheers that became clearer and clearer, the group saw a huge arena. A large number of people sat around the auditorium outside the arena and waved their flags. From the perspective of Andrea and others, they could not see the terrain for the time being. Lower arena situation.

The entrance to the civilian area in Edreth District was finally guarded. The absent-minded guards were lined up in two rows, most of their attention was focused on the direction of the arena, and they didn't even notice the arrival of Linus and others.

Linus frowned, "It's too negligent, is this really Eresalas, who is known as the guardian of the mystery?" '

"cough!"

Coughing loudly on purpose, Linus' actions finally attracted the attention of the guards.

The leader, a night elf with a helmet on, looked suspiciously at this team of less than a hundred people. The gorgeous silk robes and noble temperament worn by this group of people fully demonstrated their identities.

Not daring to entrust Linus and the others, one of the city gate guards respectfully saluted, "I would like to ask the noble high elves, what is the important thing for you all to come to Elesalas after traveling thousands of miles?"

...

Linus, who is familiar with the social etiquette of the upper elves, was in charge of talking and entertaining, and Andrea and the others entered the core city of Eresalas smoothly.

Eresalas in this era has begun to show signs of decline due to lack of magic power.

However, the leader of the city has not gone crazy enough to massacre his own people. With a population of 1.3 million, Elesalas seems to be at least maintaining a superficial prosperity.

Led by a high-level elf who was guiding the way, the group was brought into the council area in the north of Eresalas. In an exquisite palace made of snow-white marble, Andrea finally saw the hidden city. lord.

Governor of Eresalas, Prince Torsedrin.
