âYou also⊠die?â Alexstraszaâs tone was indescribable as she sighed. âDo you know that just a few days ago, I felt the fading of Malygosâs flames of life? If nothing unexpected happened, Malygos offered his soul to Osiris. The death of an old friend has already made me sad enough, and now, youâre actually saying that you will die in Osirisâs hands⊠Pardon my frankness, but I donât see any light in the future youâve described! Osirisâs existence, like his title, makes me feel shrouded in endless despairâŠâ
âThatâs because you can only see the darkness in front of you, Alexstrasza⊠But I see more!â Nozdormuâs eyes were shining, as though he was using his power. âIn the scenes of the future, I see devastation everywhere and endless enemies. Even without the Burning Legion, thereâs still Neltharion and the Old Gods. Even without external enemies, the various races of Azeroth will still go to war because of endless conflicts⊠Alexstrasza, itâs difficult for peace to come to Azeroth in the future. The hatred accumulated in the wars has always been causing the various races to slide into the abyss. This is what Iâve seen in many timelines, all kinds of endings.â
âIs that so? Itâs been hard on you, old friendâŠâ Alexstrasza patted Nozdormuâs shoulder. âDo you feel terrible seeing those scenes all the time?â
Nozdormu shook his head. âYou donât understand what I mean. What Iâm saying is that in other timelines, Azeroth has always been in a state of disaster, and many of them even welcome the end of time, which is the destruction of the world⊠But whatâs strange is that because of the existence of Osiris, this current timeline is able to continue for a long time. I donât know why, nor do I know what happens. After all, I canât see the future after my death. But from the perspective of an observer of time, I can confirm that this timeline is the longest Iâve seen⊠In other words, the future of Azeroth has been extended further.â
âWhy is that happening?â Alexstrasza was puzzled.
Nozdormu said, âIâve been thinking about it for a long time. I think Osiris probably does something that has a profound impact on the future. Otherwise, itâs impossible for this to happen.â
âHe is a demon king. Could he turn around and protect Azeroth?â Alexstrasza said. âYou said that you died in his hands. From the looks of it, even we Aspects wonât be able to escape his vicious hands. He will also cause immense damage to Azeroth.â
âBut this damage might not be his ultimate goal!â Nozdormu said. âUnlike other demons of the Burning Legion, Osiris might not care about Azeroth⊠Alexstrasza, I have a vague premonition that⊠it might be a good thing for us to let Osiris wreak havocâŠâ
Alexstrasza looked at Nozdormu speechlessly. âIf I hadnât been able to confirm that you are indeed Nozdormu, I would have definitely suspected that you had fallen. Is this what an Aspect should say? Let a demon king wreak havoc on Azeroth?â
Nozdormu shook his head. âThatâs all I can say. Alexstrasza, whether you believe me or doubt me, what I want to say is that you donât need to have any psychological burden. Just do whatever you have to do. Itâs fine to fight against Osiris, and itâs also fine to preserve your strength. When youâre thinking about your course of action, you donât need to consider the content of our conversation today. Just proceed as normal.â
âDamn it!â Alexstrasza couldnât help cursing after hearing this. âYouâve already said so much, and now youâre telling me not to feel burdened? How is that possible?!â
Nozdormu smiled and didnât say anything.
Alexstrasza suddenly thought of something, and her face turned cold. âThereâs one more thing, Nozdormu. About me being captured by the Dragonmaw clanâŠâ
Hearing this, Nozdormu immediately knew what she wanted to ask. He sighed and said, âAlexstrasza, Iâm sorry about this. I did see this history, but I couldnât stop it from happening because itâs a necessary factor in the timelineâŠâ
Alexstrasza gritted her teeth and looked at Nozdormu, but she didnât say anything.
âIâm leaving, Alexstrasza!â After a moment of silence, Nozdormu said, âThe reason why I came to see you is that we might never have the chance to meet again in this timelineâŠâ
Alexstrasza hesitated for a moment before finally nodding. But she stayed silent, and Nozdormu gradually disappeared.
After he left, she sat alone on the top of Wyrmrest Temple for a long time. It wasnât until dawn that she straightened up. Do what I have to do? OkayâŠ
Over the next period of time, the red dragonflight of Wyrmrest Temple attacked several times under Alexstraszaâs lead. Their goal was Roy, who was searching for dragon corpses in the Dragonblight to create an army of dragon liches!
Although Alexstrasza knew that she couldnât kill Roy by doing this or even cause him any harm, as the Dragonqueen and an Aspect, she couldnât tolerate him desecrating the corpses of dragons, so it was inevitable for her to attack him.
While Alexstrasza was entangling Roy, the situation on Azeroth was rapidly changing.
Just as Medivh had expected, the Burning Legion and the Scourge had lost a lot of troops when crossing the Endless Sea. Although most of them were undead creatures without a will, the demons also suffered many casualties.
But no matter what, under Tichondriusâs lead, they still set foot on Kalimdor.
What surprised Tichondrius was that Archimonde had clearly set off first, but after the Legion and the Scourge landed, Archimonde had yet to appear. He hadnât even reached Kalimdor.
The reason was naturally that Archimonde was entangled by the nagas in the MaelstromâŠ
Although Archimonde could fly, he was unwilling to fly. This was out of habit. And because of the World Tree Nordrassil on Kalimdor, he couldnât use Teleportation to enter for the time being, so he had no choice but to cross the sea personally. It made him feel angry and impatient. As a result, when he passed by the Maelstrom and was attacked by the ugly and slippery nagas, how could he not be furious?
Archimonde tore apart all the nagas who dared to attack him. The fel energy flowing from his body contaminated a vast stretch of the sea. But even so, the nagas still tenaciously harassed and sneak attacked him, making it difficult for him to move forward.
Even so, he had never thought about what was going on with these creatures that kept appearing to obstruct him. In fact, after ten thousand years, the Burning Legion had long forgotten the group of Highborne that they had bewitched. After using pawns, they would discard them. This was the usual tradition of the Burning Legion, so Archimonde never thought that these nagas were the Highborne from before. He only thought that they were some ugly insects and stomped them to death.
But the nagas had already recognized Archimondeâs identity. The reason why they kept attacking him was due to the hatred and anger of the Burning Legion deceiving them. Moreover, under the leadership of Queen Azshara, the nagas had taken refuge in the Old God NâZoth. Although they were both in the camp of evil, the Old Gods and the Burning Legion were not friends, so they didnât have any reservations at all.
Precisely because Archimonde didnât arrive for a long time, the Burning Legion and the Scourge had to stop their invasion and wait for their commander. This naturally gave the human and orcs who had escaped to Kalimdor time to form an alliance with the night elves.
However, after the Orc Horde landed on Kalimdor, Grom Hellscream had a conflict with the night elf demigod Cenarius and killed him with his ax. This matter caused a tremendous conflict between the night elves and the orcs. But under the immense threat of the Burning Legion and Archimonde, no matter how unwilling the night elves were, they could only put aside their hatred for the time being and face the powerful enemy together.
Deeply aware of the strength of the enemy, the worried High Priestess of Elune, Tyrande Whisperwind, released Illidan Stormrage, who had been imprisoned for ten thousand years, hoping that he could contribute in the upcoming war.
And letting Illidan out of his cage was a sign that the Battle of Mount Hyjal was comingâŠ
