Aurelia returned to Silvermoon City very late. When she rode a romper alone to Silvermoon City, Wenleza had been waiting at the city gate for a long time.

"If you don't come back, I'll send the rangers to find you soon." Wenleza and Aurelia hugged each other eagerly. They both understood that this was just a joke, but Aurelia was indeed late for a while, and for this, the Regent smiled ashamed.

"Shiva and I have to say too much. So it took some time."

Wen Leisa hasn't seen her sister's excited expression for a long time. It seems that the gap between her and Sylvanas has melted away. "So what did the second sister tell you?"

"Then there is too much to say, it's hard to say." The Regent shook his head, "Okay, let me tell me first about the situation of Belorel? Is he okay?" Aurelia thought it was not easy to deal with those nobles. They always wrapped their prey with many gentle but dangerous problems like spider webs.

“The situation is a bit…unexpected.”

Aurelia still had a smile on her face, but her expression had froze. The result of the banquet could only be that Belorel responded calmly or was not adapted to the communication between the nobles, causing an awkward atmosphere. What did it mean by surprise? Is there any other possibility? Could this be a surprise or a worse situation?

"We're talking as we go."

Every time she walked through the Shepherd's Gate, Aurelia felt like she was returning in triumph, and this time was no exception, and she thought she had indeed won.

"Tell me in detail what Belorel did?"

"You should still remember the interrogation at Eagle Wing Square after we learned of Kelthus' betrayal."

For many people, it was a dark memory. Aurelia would not forget that she personally presided over the interrogation. All the people who were interrogated were supporters of Kelthas, who stubbornly thought that the prince's behavior was for Quelthalas.

"There was a royal member named Leanda Sun Chaser among the people interrogated at that time. Do you have any impression?"

Aurelia no longer remembers who this person was, but the Sun Chaser surname is engraved in the memory of every Sindorei. It was once the object of Aurelia's loyalty and hated later.

"You mean, Sutheril's banquet was mixed with members of the Sun Chaser family?"

"We are not sure whether someone has deliberately arranged the appearance of Leanda," said Wenleza. "But the woman did appear, and her target was obviously Belorel."

A sun chaser came to find the Wind Walker. Aurelia didn't have to think about it and knew what would happen next. She thought that the royal family members in the past had already fled or had their names scattered, and she didn't want to have someone in the kingdom who refused to accept reality.

"After Kelthas' failure, I did not hold those royal members accountable, and let them decide the future fate of the Sun-Survivor family. This is the greatest tolerance, but unfortunately they want more than that."

"Please don't get me wrong, sister. Leanda Sun Chaser's bloodline is not enough to support her as the Elves King. She is probably just a victim of the nobles who use to test you."

"Test me? What? Are they still thinking about returning to Anastalian's time?" Aurelia's anger couldn't help but vent. It was stupid to be obsessed with the past, not to mention that after the gloriousness, a disaster came.

"Now Quel'thalas is becoming more and more stable, and many people are eager for a rich life. This is the norm, and you don't have to be angry."

"I should really throw all the people you said into the battlefield. Only in this way can they understand that everything they enjoy is exchanged for blood." Aurelia shook her head, "I will never allow anyone to forget why we call ourselves 'blood elves'. No matter what the nobles want to do, they can't make a storm. You can deal with that Leanda, give her money, or send her to Dalaran, anyway, just let her leave Quel'thalas."

"Belorille brought her back."

The Regent's footsteps stopped instantly, staring at Wenleza with incredible eyes. They were on the murder path at this moment. This place is the quietest alley in Silvermoon City, but sometimes the silence makes people shudder. "What did you say?"

The silver-haired elf sighed, and her sister's expression was in her expectation, because she was also shocked when she learned about this. "Belorell brought her back and placed her in the Tower of Sun Rage. I asked him why he did this, but he said..."

Before Wenleza could finish her words, Aurelia's anger began to roar, and this discovery made General Ranger full of worries about what might happen next.

"Belorell said no matter what, members of the Sun Chaser family cannot be put on the streets."

Aurelia looked away from her sister, and the anger in her heart should not pour over the innocent. She looked at the spire that was faintly visible under the night. "Go to investigate Sutheril's list of guests and don't miss anyone."

"Do you suspect someone has bewitched Belorel?" When Wenleza said this, Aurelia gave her a look, as if she was saying: Isn't it?

General Ranger did not agree: "I think Belorel was just out of sympathy. He was still young, sister, and didn't understand politics."

"If it's just out of sympathy, there is no need to bring people back to the Tower of Sun Wrath. There are countless places for Quel'thalas to live." Aurelia waved her fingers gently, as if she was going to brush away the annoying dust on her body. "What if other sun-seekers heard about this, what if they all came to my son to pretend to be pitiful?"

Indeed, one thing the Wind Walker sisters neglected, that is, if something happened at Sutherille's banquet, it might have spread throughout Quel'thalas overnight with their connections.

Belorel may be really too young to recognize the dangers. But Aurelia won't blame him, she will only help him correct his mistakes.

When she walked into the familiar Tower of Sun Rage, the two maids hurried out. They looked panicked, and they were even more shocked when they saw the Regent in military uniform.

"Photo... His Highness the Regent."

"What is this?" Aurelia's eyes locked on the silk handkerchiefs they held in both hands, emitting a mixture of alcohol and sour smell.

The two female elves didn't know how to answer, and they looked at each other with their heads down. But Aurelia had already recognized them. "I remember you were Belorel's maids."

"Yes..." one of them replied.

Aurelia's brows tightened and she walked straight through them and continued to walk in.

"Take it clean, don't tell what you see." Wenleza briefly ordered and followed her sister's steps. As soon as they walked to Belorel's room, the child came out first and closed the door.

Seeing his mother come back, Bellorel was happy at first, but the displeasure in his mother's eyes made his mood turn from the joy he just got to dim.

"Mother?"

"You brought that woman to your room?"

"The lounge of the Tower of Sun Rage is only open during the day." Bellorel replied calmly, not telling that it was the calm that a child should have made a mistake.

"I will send someone to take her to the hotel for rest." As he said, Aurelia was about to open his room door, but Belorel grabbed her wrist as soon as possible.

"Please don't do this, mother." The young elves usually don't hit Aurelia when she gets angry, but this time it's different. He hopes that his mother can listen to his explanation. "Leanda is used."

"I know this." Aurelia smiled slightly, hoping that Belorel would relax. "So I didn't send anyone to arrest her, I just placed her in a place that suits her more."

"You can't let her fall into the street!" Bellorell heard the meanness implicit in his mother's words, "Are we really going to suppress all the Sun-seekers because of Kelthus?"

Aurelia frowned, "I have never done anything to them, children, nor have I thought of rejecting them, but I will never allow them to retaliate against Quel'thalas' fate again. Your leaving Leanda in the Tower of Sun Wrath and at the political center of the kingdom will only arouse the strong desire of more royal members. They wish they could seize all power from the Wind Walker family in the next second."

"But you know they can't do it at all. They don't have the ability to shake the situation in Sindore. But their existence will still make some stubborn nobles hope. If Leanda is driven out of the Tower of Sun Rage tonight, how many people will make a big fuss about this? They will incite rumors that you no longer follow the will of the ancestors of Dasrema."

"The Wind Walkers have been guarding this kingdom for thousands of years, and no one can question our loyalty."

"But now we are leading the entire kingdom. Our duty is no longer to lead the army, but to ensure the future of Quel'thalas, so all hidden dangers should be taken seriously, not to turn a blind eye."

Aurelia thought in silence. “Since you think that the woman in the room who is not qualified to succeed the Elf King position will become a hidden danger, why not deal with her?”

"No. I just think you handled her in the wrong way."

"So you mean the way to drive her out of the Tower of Sun Rage is too cruel?" Aurelia glared at the door as she asked this question. "Then do you have a better way?"

"I... did think of it." Belorel nodded. His expression of heart-to-responsiveness was very similar to Nathanos in Aurelia's memory, but he lacked the confidence of his father. Aurelia knew that he was afraid that she would disagree with him, but in fact the female elf was indeed ready to oppose him.

"So tell me your solution, kid." Aurelia said: "I really want to see your opinion."

"As we all know, Quelthalas has stood in the Forest of Yongge for thousands of years. Every elves, every family, and even the Sun Chaser, has absolute faith in a sacred place, which is the spiritual sustenance of everyone."

"Wait a minute, you won't want it..." Wenleza couldn't hide her shock. She accidentally interrupted Belorel, but she felt that she wouldn't do it again, Aurelia might let the entire Tower of Sun Rage witness her anger, and her sister spoke only to make the situation worse. "What stupid things are you saying, child. Have you forgotten Kelthas?"

"Kelthas cannot represent the entire Sun Chaser family, aunt. No matter what the prince's sins are, the other Sun Chaser are children of the Sun Well."

"Absolutely not." Aurelia's voice was loud, but particularly cold. "Training a sun chaser to the well of the Sun will only cause panic. Whether he is going to pilgrimage or doing anything, no Sindore people and Queldore are willing to see the sun chaser appear on the holy land again."

"You can take advantage of this," said Belorel. "You place the Sun Chaser on Queldanas Island not to imprison them, but to give them a chance to atone for their sins and to repent for the sins of Kelthas. It is much better to seek forgiveness by the Well of the Sun than to be muddy and persevere every day."

Aurelia slowly turned her head to Belorel, surprised that he could say such things.

"If you empower them to see the Well of the Sun again, treat it as a gift and give it generously. Maybe they will use it as an opportunity for redemption and no longer think about how to restore the kingship, but choose to become a devout believer."

"But what about the hidden danger?" said Aurelia. "How can you guarantee that there will be no second Kelthus among them?"

"We can try, just let one person get this opportunity first. Leanda meets the requirements. Although she is dissatisfied with your rule, she is not a judging radical." Bellorell said, which is why he brought Leanda back. This woman is weak, even he can deal with, and she has no ability to become the second Kelthas. "Leanda is not the only one who wants to improve the status quo of the Sun Chaser family. Many Sun Chaser have the same wish. You can have the dominance to let them realize their wishes. Leanda's example can at least let them know that you will pay attention to their needs. Just try it once. If it works, you can decide whether you can repeat this move."

Aurelia's displeasure slowly disintegrated. Wenleza also lost her initial suspicion, which made Belorel's heart full of hope.

The Regent glanced at the closed door again and said to his children in surprise: "Your words make sense. But what are your reasons, children? Leanda... or what did those nobles do that make you think like this?"

Bellorell had never thought that his mother would ask this question. "Of course I'm for Quel'thalas, mother."

"No." Aurelia shook her head. "It will take at least hundreds of years, or even thousands of years to sit in my position. In short, you have not yet entered politics. This is not the real reason."

"I don't want anyone to shake the Wind Walker family to build a good future for Quel'thalas, for our family."

"I agree with you, but it's still not your reason. Why did you choose Leanda? Just because you happened to meet her? I think there are deeper reasons here. Tell me, Bellorel. What's your real reason?"

Aurelia waited with the unique patience of the Ranger, and he felt that Belorel seemed to have obtained something from Leanda, and she had to figure it out.

"She made me... think of my father."

So that's it! Aurelia was stunned.

"A lot of her words reminded me of him. The hiding of the Sun Chaser family and the injustice she suffered from Kelthus' betrayal. She..."
