The Four Dream Guardians were severely damaged by the corruption of Xavius, the first Nightmare Lord.

After being reminded by Sharlayan, Ysera, who had been sleeping in the Emerald Dream to deal with the nightmare attack, finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

More than ten years ago, she took the initiative to recall the four dream guardians whose will was severely eroded.

After killing Xavius, the first-generation nightmare king, the four green dragons finally regained their sanity under the personal purification of the sleeper Ysera.

As the guardians of the dream, their minds were corrupted by the evil power from the dream, Lythorn, Emeris, Tyral, and Ysondre felt very ashamed.

At their initiative, and after confirming that the four of them had fully recovered, Ysera readily agreed to their self-recommendation for reinstating their official duties and making meritorious deeds.

However, in order to avoid repeating the old tricks of the second-generation Nightmare Lord Varothen, Ysera specially formulated a rotation mechanism.

Every 10 years, the four dream guardians will randomly rotate to another place of the entrance of the four dreamlands, so as to avoid being caught by the nightmare king by squatting in the same place for a long time.

Today, the first decade has just passed, and Lethorn is about to rotate to the Dawn Forest in the middle of the Duskwood.

Before leaving, he planned to teach the evil branch troll who had been jumping up and down in the Hinterlands an unforgettable lesson for ten years.

Unlike the small clans such as Evil Tooth, Burningthorn, and Fire Tree, which have long abandoned their bad habits of cannibalism, the Xiezhi Troll, who claims to be a big brother, still retains this bloody and cruel custom.

Not only cannibals, but the evil branch trolls also like to use living sacrifices. Any intelligent creature caught by them is absolutely impossible to get out of Xinsaluo alive.

Among the five-color dragons, red dragons and green dragons are the dragons who love life the most and are close to mortals.

The vile desecration of life by the evil branch troll is undoubtedly a provocation to the green dragon who loves life.

Due to the rule of the dragon clan not to interfere in the affairs of mortals, the guardians of Seradan headed by Lethorn have endured it for ten years.

The rotation of the guards among the dream guardians is coming soon. Before leaving, Lethorn intends to vent the anger accumulated for ten years in his own name.

Ysera chose to turn a blind eye to this matter, as long as Lethorne didn't cause much trouble, she didn't intend to personally intervene in this matter.

And this information can just be used by Sharlayan.

It is true that in order not to interfere with the development of mortal civilization, the Dragon Clan will not easily intervene in the struggle between any mortal races.

But... what if it was a mortal who took the initiative to break into the Dragon Clan's territory? Fighting back in self-defense is not against the rules, is it?

Because his mother Inas was a hybrid of green dragons and red dragons, as her only son, Sharlayan had always been regarded as one of his own by the green dragon clan.

Therefore, when Sharlayan approached Lythorn, who was about to leave in rotation, Lythorn, who owed him a big favor because of the nightmare corruption, agreed to cooperate with his plan without saying a word.

The mature and prudent Ysera was a little worried about Sharlayan, who liked to make big things happen.

After Stellagosa reported her departure, she specially sent her daughter, the Green Dragon Princess Merlinsera, to Seradan to supervise on the spot, so as to prevent Lethorn and Sharlayan from going too far.

Kael'thas has been on the throne for many years, and his long-term ruling has already made him a veteran in the political arena. He easily understood the meaning behind Sharlayan's words.

The green dragon will not directly intervene in this localized war between the Wildhammer dwarves and the forest trolls, but if the Vilebranch trolls are lured into taking the initiative to invade Seradan, even if they only step in with one foot...

The green dragon headed by Lethorn can use the name of self-defense to fight back, giving the evil branch troll a farewell "surprise" that has endured for ten years.

The Hidden Stone is the only way to get to Seladan, which was once the seat of a small clan of forest trolls long extinct.

According to the investigation of Backlight Blade, this clan named Thornblade once sternly rejected the solicitation of the Xiezhi troll, and finally perished in an evil ritual of the enraged Xiezhi clan.

All the thornblade trolls were melted into mindless slime monsters by that cruel sacrificial ceremony, and they still wander around the hidden stone unconsciously.

Back then, the tragedy happened right under Lesson's nose.

Due to the iron law of the Dragon Clan, the green dragons such as Laithorne, who are burning with anger, are not easy to attack, and they have not forgotten the tragic scene of that day until today.

The Wildhammer dwarves and high elves have nothing to do with the Briarblade trolls, but as members of the orderly good camp, Sharlayan and Falstad both decided to let the unrelieved Briarblade trolls... that is, soft The oozes are buried in peace.

It was precisely because of the tragedy that the Thornblade troll suffered that the Evil Tooth clan, which was completely chilled by the Evil Branch clan, would seek refuge with the high elves, who were originally enemies.

In their view, at least the high elves would not treat their own kind so cruelly, and the practice of the Xiezhi clan has exceeded the tolerance limit of the Eviltooth clan.

As the Vilebranch trolls mobilized their troops to the altar of Zul, with the assistance of the Wildhammer dwarves at the Stormfeather Outpost, the Viletooth clan sent troops from the Viletooth Village by the sea to climb the sea-watching cliff and occupied the deserted desert. Alvasa.

So far, the entire northern part of the Hinterlands has been completely aligned, facing off against the deadwood and evil branch clans that are fighting in full swing in the south.

After all, Xiezhi is the most powerful forest troll clan after Amani's demise. While dealing with the Witheredwood clan, they can also spare part of their troops to try to teach the daring Eviltooth clan a lesson.

This arrogant sidekick was the wretch Sharlayan was trying to lure into his pit.

The Xiezhi troll, who were fighting on both sides, had no time to pay attention to the Evil Tooth Village under Wanghai Cliff. A large number of ships from Eversong Forest had already opened up the route along the way, and they were waiting for the Sun King's order.

"Since you've planned everything..."

Kael'thas closed his eyes slightly in silence for a moment, and when he opened them again, a cold light flashed in the always gentle Sun King's eyes.

"In the name of the Sun King of Quel'Thalas, I grant Sharlayan, Grand Duke Deep Shadow, the overall command of the Battle of the Hinterlands."

"The evil branch trolls, who are stubborn and old-fashioned with countless vices, have long been unable to adapt to this new era. Send them to the ground."

Sharlayan solemnly raised his right hand and beat his chest heavily: "Your will!"

...

Kael'thas is gentle and easy-going by nature, but he is not a weak person who only knows how to give in blindly.

After nearly ten years in power, Kael'thas has already learned to make decisions when he is ready, under the influence of many cabinet ministers who have a strong external stance, such as Sarlayan and Li Reisa.

When it was time to kill decisively, even if he still had compassion in his heart, Kael'thas would never hesitate in making a decision.

Before the forest troll is completely suppressed and loses the ability to resist, the high elves will never show mercy to this old enemy who has been feuding for more than 7,000 years.

This principle can also be applied to the side of the forest troll.

Except for the Evil Tooth Clan, a small clan that violated the rules of their ancestors due to the situation, any forest troll clan of any size would not look favorably on the high elves, and would inevitably fight if they met.

When the Amani Empire was at its strongest, most of the eastern kingdoms were their territory. At that time, races such as humans, dwarves, and dwarves were far from being civilized.

It wasn't until the high elves came across the sea that the dominance of the forest trolls began to be challenged.

However, in the early days of the founding of Quel'Thalas, the forest trolls in full swing kept the high elves in the Bandin Norrell barrier, unable to expand outward.

It wasn't until the troll war that shook the entire Azeroth that the once mighty Amani Empire began to turn from prosperity to decline.

The old hatred of the high elves occupying the sacred place of the forest troll family has not yet ended, and the new hatred of the troll war is engraved in the hearts of all forest trolls.

Unless one party completely loses the ability to resist and never recovers, at least in Sharlayan's view, it is impossible for the high elves and forest trolls to reconcile.

Therefore, Sharlayan had no reservations when he plotted against the evil branch trolls. He planned to kill them from the very beginning, and along the way, he also eliminated the equally powerful Witherwood clan who wanted to beat the rabbits.

And Sharlayan didn't just stop at the stage of thinking, he had already started to take action.

If you want to say who hates the Witherwood troll the most, you don't need to think about it. It must be the Kingdom of Stormgard, whose capital was almost taken away before Danas returned.

...Of course, the biggest blame for the chaos at that time was pinned on the idiot Galen Trollbane, and the Witherbark troll was just taking advantage of the situation.

But in any case, it is an indisputable fact that the Witherbark trolls took advantage of the chaos to invade and occupy a part of Stromgarde.

Therefore, when Sharlayan's letter reached Danath Trollbane, the new King of Stormgard was quick to agree to his plan.

"Everything is ready."

After receiving the reply letter from Danas, Sharlayan behind the combat desk let out a sigh of relief.

"Next, let's start this 'local war' to bring the forest trolls to an end."
