…………

A week passed without any incident or warning. Rommath suddenly told others about Kael'thas' decision. The Grand Magister's words were like a deceptive joke, which made Vereesa have to be wary.

The ranger general was worried. Rommath said that he had informed Alleria of his decision. Vereesa also wanted to know her sister's thoughts - she had received news that Alleria was rushing to Silvermoon City.

The rangers who went out on patrol have returned. Every time a ranger appears, Vereesa hopes to see Alleria's face. But time slowly passes, and the number of returning rangers is getting smaller and smaller, and Alleria has not yet

Arriving, Vereesa began to worry.

Could it be that my sister has changed her mind and stopped coming?

Originally, there were many elves like Vereesa waiting inside the Shepherd's Gate, waiting for the leader of the Windrunner family to arrive. The previous ranger general retired after experiencing the war against Arthas. Many people were

Alleria is considered to be the guardian of the kingdom, but some people still question her disappearance.

Vereesa judged that Alleria would choose to walk back from the south in order to comprehensively inspect the damage and recovery of the kingdom and city from the outside to the inside.

Grand Magister Rommath advised not to reveal the specific time and location of Alleria's arrival to others. However, Vereesa believed that the news of Alleria's return could be inspiring.

In the end, Rommath agreed to Vereesa's decision. The female elf was a little surprised at the time, but she also admired the mage for seeing the situation clearly, because the Windrunner family might have the final say in Silvermoon City for a long time.

If Alleria accepts the appointment.

Vereesa believed that her sister had always felt guilty for the fall of Silvermoon City, not because she failed to stop Arthas, but because she did not die on the battlefield like a victim.

Later that day, Alleria finally arrived. She walked into Silvermoon City without any fanfare or swagger. There were no guards around her, and even Sylvanas was not by her side. She quietly talked to Vereesa

After meeting, the two sisters hugged each other for a long time.

The female elf's appearance clearly shows her proud Windrunner bloodline, and her blue eyes hide wisdom, the depth of which can only be known by guessing.

She and Vereesa entered the square wearing brown cloaks, pulling them down as low as possible to cover their faces. She heard many survivors complaining in low voices.

"Why did she come back now?"

"If the prince doesn't give her this honor, will she never come back?"

"What's she doing back here? Making decisions for us?"

Even if Alleria heard these words, she did not react. She just looked at the extent of the damage, hiding her expression and emotions equally well.

Vereesa held her hand and said: "Please don't pay attention to their words, sister."

Alleria signaled that Vereesa didn't need to explain. "It's okay, Vereesa. I did come back too late, and I ran into some...trouble." The female elf asked whether she should go with Sylvanas.

Vereesa seemed hesitant to tell her about the quarrel.

She took a few steps forward and looked at the survivors gathered together, as if she hoped she could hear them more clearly.

"Alleria must know how difficult the situation is."

Protesters appeared again among the survivors.

"How could she possibly know how hard it was?"

"Can she help us out? At least ensure that those of us who are about to follow her will not go hungry. Is there anything else we can do to alleviate our hunger?"

"Quiet, there is no point in discussing these." This last sentence was said by the patrolling ranger guard. "Ms. Alleria must understand that what is needed now is action, and she will prove herself to us."

Alleria was silent. The survivors were still arguing fiercely, paying no attention to anyone else. The female elf sighed and turned around.

"Take me to see Romance and the others."

Vereesa nodded and said, "Okay, sister."

There is a lonely table in the main hall of the tavern. Rommath, Lor'themar, and the mage Astalor are surrounding the table on three sides. The remaining empty stool is waiting for its owner. What's interesting is that

, there is no place for Vereesa here, perhaps everyone present felt that the Ranger General would not waste time in this meeting.

Rommath's fingers traced the staff.

Astalor took the initiative and said almost in a questioning tone: "Have you tried to persuade Prince Kael'thas?"

"I couldn't believe it when I heard it." Romans looked at Astalo's face. The Grand Magister's voice softened: "But I believe that the prince made this decision after careful consideration. If Kui

There is another person in Er'Thalas who is suitable to exercise power on his behalf, and that must be Alleria. She couldn't be more suitable. Moreover, by doing so, Prince Kael'thas can concentrate on facing the situation in the outer world without having to wait all the time.

Distract yourself from the people who remain on Azeroth."

The two were silent for a while. Not long after, Astalo said with ulterior motives: "The prince's departure left a huge vacuum, and the vacuum of power always tends to be filled again. I can understand this.

, but there’s no need to promote Alleria to the position of regent. Can’t we form a political system? Just meet the needs of the people, right?”

"Political system?" Lor'themar, who had remained silent, finally spoke, "Do you mean...another Silver Moon Council?"

Astalor looked at the Ranger Lord with an expression of disbelief. He thought about this approach for a moment and shook his head. The people are now extremely disappointed with the former Silver Moon Council. This is all due to Dar'Khan, that traitor is

Member of the Silvermoon Council.

"This is why Prince Kael'thas intends to concentrate power on one person. An absolutely loyal person is more trustworthy than a group of people who may have disagreements or even betrayal. However, some people still doubt whether Alleria

You can really be selfless. Therefore...the prince plans to set a test for Alleria to see if she is ready...for the position of leader."

"What kind of test?" Astalor asked curiously.

"She will carry out a mission to hunt her..."

"He's outside the door!" Lor'themar heard the footsteps and locked his sights on the entrance. Even inside, he could still hear the melancholy voice of Ranger General Vereesa.

Rommath and Astalor looked at the door. The broken door was pushed open and then closed.
