Chapter 802 The Redemption of Kael'thas (Additional Update From Alliance Leader Ellu Castle)
The blood elves and human-dominated alliance in history have reached such a stage. Of course, Kael'thas should not be the main blame.
The poor prince was born in this era and unfortunately became a victim of history. The choices he made were choices that ordinary people would make. Therefore, Duke expresses his deepest understanding and sympathy for Kael'thas's end.
But in the face of the ruthless fate, the blood elf prince seemed particularly powerless, coupled with his lack of courage and the legendary E-level luck.
Even if he wanted to kill the thief, he could not save himself.
As for Marshal Garithos, who had tricked Kael'thas into hiding, he naturally had to bear the main responsibility for Kael'thas' rebellion.
This guy is narrow-minded, blindly subjective, and an incompetent leader no matter what.
However, in the reality before Duke's time travel, such leaders who were suspicious and suspicious of their subordinates all day long could be seen everywhere.
That's why there is a famous saying like "A thousand-mile horse always exists, but a bole does not always exist."
Talents like Kael'thas, in the hands of Garithos, would either become useless horses and die in depression; or they would become wild horses and be forced to change jobs.
Before time travel, players often compared the two princes Arthas and Kael'thas together.
Duke was personally very unhappy.
In Duke's opinion, Kaizi is much cuter than the idiot.
Although Arthas had good intentions, he acted too extreme and never listened to others' advice. Stubbornly placing himself as the center of the world, he forcibly hopes that the process of the entire world will develop according to his personal wishes. His fall was certainly due to the conspiracy spun by the Dread Lord and Kel'Thuzad.
From another perspective, could it be that Alsace has such an extreme and self-centered character because he was pampered and spoiled by Terenas, who claimed to be the best in the world?
So even if he fell later, what Alsace did was a bloody human tragedy such as killing his father and his master.
Not so with Kael'thas.
From beginning to end, everything this respectable Elf Prince did was for his people.
He hopes that the people will live a good life, he hopes to take revenge and eliminate the Scourge, he hopes to solve the people's evil addiction, and he hopes...
The first starting point for everything he does is the people.
If Kael'thas, who was so kind-hearted and had not yet surrendered to the Burning Legion, should be tragically killed, Duke's own conscience would not forgive him.
Not to mention, when Duke was sorting out information on the Eastern Army of Lordaeron a few days ago, Duke accidentally saw the name of Garithos. From the file Mograine forwarded to him, Duke saw that Garithos was as unreliable as ever.
Duke directly avenged his personal revenge, took out the Queen's Seal that Kalia gave him, beat this guy to the ground, found a way to make him from brigadier general to captain, and threw him to the front line as cannon fodder.
Within a week, Duke received the report that this guy died heroically in battle, and even the body was recovered.
Well, idiots should die early and be born early.
This sentence is very accurate and there is nothing wrong with it.
Duke raised his head: "Kael'thas, you did make a mistake this time. We are all high-ranking people, and we all know that there is no room for family affection in the face of great rights and wrongs."
Kael'thas looked gloomy: "Duke, you taught me the right lesson."
Duke sighed in his heart. If Kaizi had knelt down a little later and had waited until he had finished analyzing the Sunwell's mana veins with the System Elf hiding in the dark, Kaizi's situation would not have been as bad as it is now.
"What are your plans?"
Kael'thas looked left and right. Beside him were die-hard supporters such as the great astromancer Solanlian and the astromancer Calpurnia. His face was full of bitterness: "We still love our motherland, but it is a pity that more than three thousand people will be exiled together because of my fault. I am sorry for them. But in order to atone for our sins, I think we will go to various places in Lordaeron. , continue to fight the Scourge in our own way."
Three thousand people... Originally Duke wanted to recruit the people of Kael'thas as private soldiers, but three thousand people was a bit too much, and Duke had to consider those who were more loyal to Quel'Thalas. Elf feelings.
Especially Sylvanas, this is a hurdle that Duke cannot avoid.
Duke took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Do you know what will happen to you if you do this? You and the followers who trust you and entrust their lives to you will all die meaninglessly and be corrupted by the Scourge. on the land.”
Next to the prince, the great astromancer Solanlian couldn't help but feel angry and angry, and finally shouted: "Then what else can we do!?"
The paladin Liadrin next to Duke shouted: "Watch your tone, traitor!"
Just as Solanlian was about to argue, Kael'thas stopped her: "This is my fault, please don't take your anger out on Duke."
The prince gave in like this, which made Solanlian almost cry from sadness.
Duke stared at this beautiful elf, looking at the boss who would sit in the Storm Fortress of Draenor in the original history and be besieged and killed by the Alliance army. Duke suddenly felt a different kind of emotion.
"I know your current status is a bit embarrassing. In fact, if you are still willing to fight for Azeroth, I would like you to help the Alliance guard the Dark Portal. In this case, we can bring the original Dalaran mages to Free them and join the Scourge's war."
As soon as these words came out, there was a "hissing" sound all around.
This is not because Duke treats them poorly. On the contrary, it is because he treats Kael'thas and others too well.
After so many years of operation, the Keep Keep Fortress in the Cursed Land is no longer the bitter cold place it once was. The defenders of Watchfort are recognized as the most elite troops in the entire alliance because they often have to fight against demons or orcs who come out of space cracks from time to time.
In the past ten years, there has been a saying that 'stay in the Watch Castle for three years and then come back and be promoted to the third level'.
Kael'thas was humiliated because he succumbed to his fallen father. Now Duke is letting Kael'thas go to Nethergarde Keep. Firstly, it will keep Kael'thas away from the ostracism of the elves in Quel'Thalas. Secondly, they won't have to go. Lordaeron, which had the worst relationship with the elves, was looked down upon, and the third time they were asked to gild it.
Large-scale invasion or not, the Dark Portal is the front line against demons and against orcs.
If you can stay on the front line for a few years, everyone will regard you as an alliance warrior when you return to your hometown.
This is the best salvation for Kael'thas and his followers!
"Duke, I...I...we don't know how to thank you. Of course we are willing to go to Nethergarde Keep."
Duke patted Kaizi on the shoulder: "Okay, you guys get ready, I will arrange a ship to take you there."
