…………

The name of this continent is Northrend. Nathanos has never been there, but in his dreams he can picture it and feel the cold that penetrates his bones.

'Alsace! Don't go there.'

…

"It is an honor to meet you again, Ser Uther. I remember the last time we met was when you introduced Arthas to Nathanos."

Uther frowned. Although Alleria Windrunner's tone was calm, she skillfully incorporated doubts and blame into her words. News of the massacre in Alsace spread quickly, and many people were implicated.

, including the people Alleria cares about most. The old paladin knew that people from other countries would come to ask him, but he didn't expect that the first one would be Alleria. But this is understandable, the Battle of Hearthglen can

It can be hidden from others but not from the eyes of the elves. In fact, it is not just myself. I am afraid that Terenas is also quarreling over the Stratholme incident. Fararan and Kul Tiras will not deal with such things.

Just sit back and do nothing.

"I'm sorry for what happened to Nathanos, Lady Alleria. To be honest, I didn't expect that Arthas would deceive me at all. When I knew that Nathanos was fighting alone in Hearthglen, I almost

I’m almost desperate.”

The female elf curled her lips and was quite satisfied with Uther's attitude. At least the other party didn't quibble and was just stating the facts.

"I'm not here to accuse you, Lord Uther. In fact, I want to thank you for your timely support in coming here to save my husband."

"Your...husband?" Uther was surprised. Although the relationship between Nathanos and Alleria was well known, there was never any news that they got married.

"Yes, I came here this time, firstly to complete the task of understanding the Stratholme incident, and secondly to bring Nathanos back to Quel'Thalas. This time I plan to hold a meeting with him that should have been held a few years ago.

wedding."

Uther nodded, "That's true. Nathanos's responsibilities have dragged down his personal life in the past few years. I think it's time for him to get some rest."

The female elf smiled. After the two continued to chat for a while, she asked to see Nathanos. Uther told her that Nathanos fell into a coma because of Arthas, but this did not stop him.

Alleria's determination.

"It's right here, he must need you very much now." Uther said, nodded to Alleria and left.

The female elf stood at the door and did not go in immediately. She didn't know what Nathanos had become now. When she arrived at Hearthglen, she was shocked by the smell of blood in the air. Even after so much time,

Oh my god, even though the Silver Hand has cleaned up the battlefield, Hearthglen still feels like it's still shrouded in a bloody twilight.

Alleria shook her head and cleared her thoughts. The most important thing now was to go see Nathanos, stay with him, and wait for him to wake up before mentioning the marriage. Thinking of this, Alleria hesitated.

When he stood up, he couldn't help but worry about whether Nathanos would agree. After all, not long ago, all the life in a city disappeared near him, and that place was so close to his home.

"Are you... awake?" The moment Alleria opened the door, she saw Nathanos sitting on the bed with his eyes closed and meditating. At that moment, the female elf laughed. The human in front of her looked very good.

There were several bandages on his body, but none of them were fatal.

Nathanos couldn't help but smile when he saw Alleria, and all the things in his mind that made him panic and uneasy disappeared.

"Alleria." He couldn't say anything and could only call her name. The female elf came over and hugged him tightly, kissing him heartily. She was determined to convince Nathanos.

"I thought I would never see you again."

At this moment, both people were qualified to say this, but Alleria was the first to speak.

"Just a little bit, my lady."

"I'm so scared, I can't even think about what's happening here."

His lover's words made Nathanos sigh. This was indeed the most difficult battle he had ever experienced. Even now he felt scared and a little surprised that he could persist for so long.

"Nothing can stop me from returning to you, Alleria."

"I know." The female elf wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, held her lover's hand and asked, "Tell me, Nathanos, tell me what happened to you, okay?"

"It's hard to explain, but I'm willing to share."

Nathanos had too much to say, and Alleria listened calmly. From the beginning of this mission to Hearthglen, he explained one by one until late at night. During this period, Alleria also

I told him the information I found out.

The two people inevitably talked about the same issue - something called the 'Dread Lord'. This name chilled Alleria. It was said in the ancient high elf books that this was a demonic creature. He was also the cause of

The reason for Arthas's expedition to Northrend.

"What's the name of that Dreadlord?"

"Mal'Ganis."

Nathanos nodded, "Kel'Thuzad mentioned him before he died, saying that he was the mastermind of all this, but it shouldn't be that simple. I'm worried that Arthas may have fallen into a trap. In Northen

He was left alone."

"Okay, my love." Alleria stretched out her arms and hugged Nathanos tightly. Whenever Arthas was mentioned, she felt disgust and disdain from the bottom of her heart. "Don't mention that fallen prince again.

He slaughtered his own people and betrayed you."

"I can't blame him. It makes me heartbroken that Alleria Arthas has become like this. He wanted to save more people, so he chose Stratholme. But in the end, he couldn't save anyone."

"It's his choice."

"But he can't face the consequences of his choice." Nathanos breathed in the fragrance of the female elf. This was the most intoxicating smell he had smelled in so many days. "He couldn't face me, let alone face it.

Others, his father and his mother, he just wanted a chance to save everything, so he chose to rush into Northrend to hunt down a terrible enemy. I don't know what his choice will be this time.

What will it bring?”

"His recklessness is not because of saving his own people, but..."

"Hate! Right?"

Alleria nodded affirmatively.

"You're right, but I can't help him like I can help you."

The female elf laughed, kissed his face again, and explained: "Because it was your love for me that saved me."

"Yes." Hot blood rushed to Nathanos's face. The two were silent for a while before they came to the topic. "I thought about how to make Arthas return to the past, and I also found a way, but there is no way.

impossible."

"What is it?" Alleria was curious as to what else could redeem the prince whose hands were stained with the blood of innocent people.

"It's trust."

Trust? Alleria blinked and looked at her confused expression. Nathanos continued: "Arthas's body is isolated and helpless, as is his heart and soul. He feels that no one he cares about is willing to

Believe him. This feeling of loneliness has turned into a sense of crisis. He wants to be trusted. But..."

"But this is impossible." Alleria took over his words and inadvertently felt the same sadness as him. "Who would heartily agree with the decision to massacre the city? Those soldiers who were with him were just executing him.

It's just an order. So many people have been sacrificed, even you are just a little bit..."

"Not bad." Nathanos lowered his head and buried himself in Alleria's arms. What made Arthas embark on the road of no return? Is it Mal'Ganis, or his identity as a prince? Or is it the future he will bear?

The weight of the crown? Or everyone, including Nathanos?

No matter what it was, Nathanos understood one thing, that is, he could not do everything, and it was not only Arthas who failed, but also him. The prince could not save his people, and he could not save the prince.

How sad, he said to himself from the bottom of his heart.

"Alleria, I have something to discuss with you."

"I also have something to discuss with you, but I want to hear it first, Nathanos." Alleria had a premonition of something and said with expectation.

Nathanos raised his head and placed his hands on both sides of the female elf's shoulders, facing her. He thought for a long time, whether before or now, he could no longer wait. "Let's... hold a wedding." He said

As the words fell, the atmosphere fell into silence. Neither humans nor elves were breathing. Alleria's sapphire eyes changed from surprise to infinite joy, and her smile took shape uncontrollably. Nathanos suddenly understood what she was going to say.

What. They all realized each other's thoughts.

'You never let me down, Nathanos.'

'You won't reject me either, Alleria.'

At this moment, all the disputes left them, and everything had nothing to do with them.
