Chapter 3 - Veronara's Diary

………

Day 1

Things were terrible. Nathanos died. In fact, he had already died long ago. This time he really disappeared. I saw him and his house turned into ashes, and it was carried out by the Regent Aurelia himself. Enya and I hid in a distance - a long distance to observe. There were eyeliners from the MI7 everywhere, and it was not easy to avoid them. I really wanted to help Nathanos because he was the only one who was suitable to lead us orphans who had regained their freedom from the control of the Lich King, but I knew that I could not save him. Everyone knew that his relationship with Aurelia was well known. The Regent did not even intend to forgive him, so how could he care about us, our former subordinates? I was very disappointed. Enya even scolded Aurelia for being ruthless. In a blink of an eye, the only support I could think of was gone, and I had to think of other ways.

Day 4

Lordaeron's situation is very unfriendly to us and is deteriorating. The Fear Demon Kings Varinasas and Annaselon occupied the entire Silver Pine Forest; the Blood Crusade excluded all other races indiscriminately; Kel Thujad, the leader of the Scourge, occupied Stantosom, and sat in the terrifying and gloomy floating fortress Naxsamas. He sent an army to guard the territory of the Barov family, the Western Plagueland, and arrogantly fought against the Fear Demon Kings and the Blood Crusade. What kind of secrets are unknown in the Spiritual Academy, and no one knows.

None of the above three forces can be fought against or surrendered to us.

The hidden dangers are not only foreign enemies, but also serious problems within us. When I told others about Nathanos's experience, the haze began to appear above everyone's heads. Especially Salorien, he collapsed and was desperate. I could understand his behavior of handing over the sword Queldra to Nathanos. This was his trust in that person. But reality was unexpectedly cruel. In the end, he went crazy and I had to end his pain.

Day 9

We finally found a habitat - Dalong County. I have been here once, and in my memory it was a beautiful town. Now there is no one here, and it has been completely abandoned after being destroyed by natural disasters. The first person to discover here was Liana, who is a search expert and is also good at finding places. She has been observing the place for a long time and has been sure that there is no threat.

Day 11

The situation was finally getting better. We stationed in Dalong County and began to search for the souls that were as lost as we could. We did find many people, and during the search, we recruited a hatred. This guy was very simple and obeyed my will. We searched all corners of Dalong County to find places to shelter from the wind and rain. I guess there must have been a fierce battle here, and abandoned weapons and armor can be found everywhere. We could have armed our people, but very few people were willing to pick up weapons. One person asked me: What is the meaning of picking up weapons?

I can't answer this question, I still remember how overwhelmed I was at the time.

Day 15

More and more people came, and I counted it and it had already exceeded 100. This may be a good thing, but I was worried about it. I was afraid that the movement might get bigger and bigger, and even the bloody crusaders would be attracted. In order to avoid this, I decided to let the refugees hide during the day and come out to play at night. The only difficult thing was the hatred, I had to let him hide on the side of the backing behind the church and let him sit down. This was a forced one.

Day 20

What I was worried about still happened. Several crusaders came here to patrol. They were fully armed and could not avoid fighting if they were discovered.

Fortunately, there was no battle in the end. Those people left after just a few glances. I guess they didn't like their mission. Perhaps we had already cleaned up the traces. In any case, this incident reminded us of this incident.

Day 30

Fewer and fewer people came, and only five people were brought back by Liana and the two Rangers.

Day 33

A strange thing happened, and more and more people told me that they always heard the girl crying at night. At first I didn't care, but later I heard it. Something unusual is hidden in the dark. I intervened in the investigation and soon got the answer. It was the ghost of a little girl. She hid in a severely damaged wooden house. The place was too dilapidated and did not attract attention. The little girl cried and asked for her doll. It took me a lot of effort to get all the broken doll pieces. Finally, she stopped crying. But she was always laughing, which brought new troubles to others.

Day 37

Enya said they were unwilling to come out, and I could understand them. So far, we couldn’t find any way out. What should we do? What are we doing? What is the point of doing anything? There are more and more questions, and no one has come to ask me these questions. But I know... that day is not far away.

Day 42

I finally couldn't help it. I summoned other dark rangers and told them my doubts. I regretted doing this because we parted in a bad mood. Some people said we should conquer cities and land. Some suggested that we find a safer place. There were many different opinions. I was in a bad mood, so I walked around. I was surprised to find that the hatred was still sitting on the ground, motionless, staring at the hillside in front of me. I forgot him! How long has he been sitting here? Sometimes I envy him, envy him for being dull and not having to think about other things.

Day 45

Today is a dangerous day and the most important day.

He actually appeared in front of me!

The weather was clear that day, and the Eastern Plagueland was rainy and rainy. There were few good weather, but the good weather brought danger. Dalong County hid more than two hundred dead victims. When the weather was hot, the corruption of the corpse spread far and wide, and finally attracted the crusaders. Their leader was a priest, who shouted to pull out the undead hidden here. If he said this to lead us out, then he succeeded. Only a few rangers can fight on our side. Those who can take weapons, including the abominable, all

They were shivering in the corner of the wall and shivering. They were afraid of the Holy Light. Who was not? But they were afraid that they could not stop the Holy Light from sanctions. The other party was a complete team, with more than twenty people. We sneaked out three with bows and arrows, but also exposed our position. The other party raised the shield wall. Their musketeers opened fire at us, and soon we were suppressed. What was terrible is more than that. The priest released a signal flare into the sky and we were all exposed, and soon more crusaders came to encircle us. I thought we were all dead today.

It was at this time that I didn't see him at first. It was a bow and arrow that told me about his existence. The arrow pierced a crusader's shield and shot through the guy's head. Then the second arrow followed one after another, and a musketeer died, and the third arrow took the life of the priest.

I was surprised, who it was?

He stood in the most conspicuous place on the hillside, and everyone could see it. It was an excellent shooting position. He could attack those living people, but living people could not attack him. Aurelia once praised his super high shooting ability. I am sure she was right. More and more people fell down, and she couldn't even run away.

Finally, all the enemies were destroyed.

I kept watching him, and he turned into a wisp of black smoke and flew to the dry well in the center of Long County.

Then, his eyes discovered me hidden in the dark!

I will never forget his eyes, the scarlet fire in my eyes can match the brilliance of the sun.

A few of us dark rangers came out, and we hardly showed up during the day.

He said something to us, but we subconsciously obeyed his words. Yes! For some reason, hope rose in my heart.

He ordered us to hide!

Day 46

In the early morning and night, a stronger crusader came, and it was the priest's signal flare that attracted them. This time they had more people, and there were cavalry. But at dawn, they all became corpses. We came out again, besides us, there were other undeads, and even the abhorrent walked out with heavy steps. Everyone surrounded him in the middle, and he was wiping the blood from his sword with a white handkerchief. As we walked out, he just glanced briefly.

I asked him: Who are you?

His self-introduction is very simple, which is to take off the black cloth from his face. There are obvious burn marks on his face. He has no ability to heal himself and can only rely on the solidified blood to stop the wound. However, this does not affect the impression of Enya and I of him. My sister said it was impossible, but he smiled and said one sentence: From now on, I will be your leader!

I was shocked. Although we had invited him to lead us, his tone and attitude were more like snatching power from the hands of several of us dark rangers. I didn't mind giving him command, but we couldn't represent the will of other undead.

No one refuted his words, but no one agreed.

Facing him, I didn't know where the courage came from, and said to him: If you want to lead us, you have to get our weapons.

He just glanced at me and did not threaten me to shut up.

I have witnessed countless shocking scenes in my life, but I can be sure. Today, in Dalong County, I listened to the most exciting voices:

We are all dead ghosts. Sword-holding warriors, believers of the Holy Light, honest ordinary people, or heroes with outstanding achievements, that is just our past. We once guarded our home bravely and fearlessly until we lost our lives. However, the evil we are fighting against is not easily expelled, and those who once shared weal and woe will not be as worthy of protection as before. Now, the shadow of death does not bring us peace. We make enemies in the crowd, and the Lich King will not let go of those souls that escape from his hands, and the living will not allow us to gain a place in their world! What should we do? I believe you must

I am very puzzled: What is the difference between us and the Lich King and Arthas? Put your hands on your chest and feel it carefully! The heart has long stopped beating. It reminds us that our bodies are dead, but it also tells us that our souls are still burning! We are free, although the living cannot tell the difference between us and the Scourge; we are powerful because the Lich King created a terrible enemy for himself; similarly, we are worthy of redemption, and death turns our fate, but the future is still in our hands. Now, the way forward is right in front of us, and who do you want to follow me and embark on the forgotten path?

At this point, his eyes turned to me, as if they were expecting something. I looked around and became surprised and found that I was the last one to kneel down...

Day 47

When I called out his name for the first time, he was scolded by him. I didn't know that he gave himself a new name - the Withered! We also had a new name - the Forgotten! This name was what he thought of when he took out a bow and arrow from the quiver. I vaguely remembered that there was a Sarasian sentence on the arrow.

Day 49, night

The Withered One explained to us the value of our existence, we want to take revenge and revenge the Scourge. We didn't dare to think about this before, but now, we are full of confidence. Everyone is collecting supplies that can be used, and we are planning to leave here.

Day 50

Our operation began, but instead of attacking the stronghold of the natural disaster, we took advantage of the night to leave Lordaeron along the Sodoril River. We were going to the south, passing through the burning plain, avoiding the Stormwind City, and entering the rainforest. The witherers said that the coast of that place was full of living people, but they were not hostile to the dead, and they only paid enough money!
