Chapter 24 - Before the ceremony
…………
It seems that the magic pivot is divided into many layers, with no ladders between layers, but magic channels formed by arcane energy are connected. Aurelia always thinks that Silver Moon City is a magic city that is even better than Dalaran, but the magic pivot allows her to experience a different kind of beauty.
Surrounding the main body of the magic pivot, several round plates were suspended in the air like small round platforms. As Aurelia gradually approached, she could even see beautiful crystal trees growing on several platforms, as if they were carved from ice and snow, with frost hanging on the leaves.
The wonderful scenery temporarily made the atmosphere less solemn, but Aurelia's curiosity about the Guardian ceremony became stronger.
"Since Caregus is one of the candidates, he also has competitors, right?"
"Yes," replied Teregosa, "but I don't like the man who competes with Carre, not because he might have taken away my brother's status, but that man, as you suspect, intends to pursue the path of Malygos."
"Who is that person?" Aurelia asked.
"Aricos' son of Malygoth."
The female elf frowned, "Direct bloodline? It seems that your brother's opponent is very powerful. Although Malygos has fallen, his bloodline is still preserved. Does the Guardian's ability also have to be circulated in the bloodline?"
"Aricos said the same things as you many times. He has been emphasizing his bloodline, believing that the new weaver must be inherited by the direct descendants of the previous weaver, but there is no evidence to prove it." Teregosa looked back at Alegia. Just a look made Alegos convinced her disgust towards the blue dragon called "Aricos". But it is undeniable that the hereditary system also influenced a race that is more wiser than mortals, and Malygos's son naturally believed that he had the power to inherit his father's status.
But things are not always absolute. Aurelia can't help but recall how she became the supreme ruler of Quelthalas many years ago. When Kelthas followed the demon, some elves chose the prince's path, but some people remained rational and turned to support the Wind Walker who fought with the demon to the end. The result was that she won, but the blood elves also paid a heavy price in that catastrophe, which took a long time to recover.
Nowadays, the Blue Dragon clan is facing the same challenge. Aricos chose to follow his father's path, so Karegos will inevitably lead the Blue Dragon Legion to open up a new era. The other Blue Dragons will definitely choose their position among the two of them. As an outsider, Aurelia still hopes that the Blue Dragon Legion will not be divided, otherwise once a war breaks out, the affected mortals will definitely be affected. But this situation should not happen. After all, there is only one weaver. When a new leader is born, those reluctant guys must obey the will of the Weaver.
Aurelia sat quietly in the guest room prepared for her by Terregosa. In the spacious room, there were two braziers, and the fur covered the radius of the ground, warm and warm. A chair also covered the curved armrests with heavy fur. A small table was filled with food and drinks. Ms. Blue Dragon left for the time being and told her not to walk around. It felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, and Aurelia was unwilling to enjoy the food on the small table. In the following time, she was just waiting, thinking about when Terregosa would come back, and at least she should tell her how long she would have to wait.
Blue runes like spells appeared from time to time on the walls around the room, which made Aurelia suddenly realize that the power of the dragon did not only come from their power, but also their extraordinary understanding of the world. Their thoughts would even extend to illusory dreams and long time.
The Regent sighed, his sharp ears moved, and he heard fast and elegant steps approaching. Teregosa pushed open the door of the room and sat heavily on the thick chair opposite Aurelia, rubbing his tired eyes.
"I can feel the tightness of your inner scent here." Aurelia sucked the wine in front of her.
Terregosa smiled bitterly and replied, "The chaotic situation often makes people feel uneasy. It makes you laugh, Ms. Regent."
"Do you mind sharing the situation there with me?"
"Of course, why not, you are a distinguished guest brought by my brother." Terregosa looked at Aurelia and smiled, his slightly green eyes flashing with a pleasant brilliance. The female elf's question made Terregosa think of Aregus. Thinking of the blue dragon, the candidate for the weaver, her mood gradually became a little depressed and her face became solemn. These changes in expression also made Aurelia guess something slightly.
"Calegus believes that the Blue Dragon clan should strengthen its ties with other Dragon clans and mortal races, and Aricus scoffed at this. He is more concerned about Blue Dragon's own affairs. Soon, the ceremony of electing the new Weaver is about to begin."
The Regent looked at the sunset in the distance through the only window in the room. It was dusk and the twilight had begun. In a few hours, the Blue Dragon's ceremony was about to begin. "It seems that Aricos is eager to gain the power of the weaver." Aurelia commented. Who knew that Terregosa shook his head in disagreement, "Is there any problem?"
"The weaver is not a power, but a responsibility." Lan Long emphasized.
"But you must obey the will of the weaver, don't you?"
This was like a hand grabbing the vital points of Teregosa. The elf-like blue dragon growled, but Aurelia did not offend her, but expressed her deep concerns. If Aregus was really just as the female elf said, just for the power of the weaver or for power, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the Blue Dragon Legion.
"Aregoth is not the Guardian at least." Teregosa said sternly, "but if he is elected as Guardian, he will have the final say in everything. After that, his will is the decision of the Blue Dragon Legion."
