Dwarves and gnomes have the same problem, they don't know where their race comes from.

The gnomes don't care much about this, they don't care about their origins as long as they can continue to happily invent and create.

In fact, humans have the same problems as dwarves and gnomes. Emperor Thoradin, who founded the Arathor Empire, traveled to find it in his later years.

It was precisely because of this journey of searching for the origin that Emperor Thoradin disappeared inexplicably, and has never appeared since then.

Sharlayan learned about the ending of Emperor Thoradin through the barrage. The first... and the only emperor who established a unified human empire, he paid the price of his life for his own recklessness when traveling, and was finally buried in Tire. tomb.

There are still two artifacts in Tyr's tomb. In the past, Sharlayan was not strong enough to take out these two artifacts safely.

Time has passed, and Sharlayan's strength has made great progress, and he has already entered the threshold of legend. He plans to find a time to go to Tyr's Tomb, so that the two dusty artifacts can be seen again.

Pulling away, let's talk about the origin of the dwarves again.

Among the three brothers of the contemporary Bronzebeard family, the eldest, Magni, has the strongest sense of responsibility. Before satisfying his personal interests, he will first fulfill his duties as a king.

The third brother, Brian, is the most free and easy. He has no interest in power and is the only one among the three brothers who has not held any public office.

Brian enjoys exploring and excavating ancient ruins. He hopes to find clues related to the origin of the dwarves from these ruins. Unfortunately, he has not yet obtained conclusive evidence.

Muradin is somewhere in between, balancing responsibility with personal preference.

When there is no major battle, Muradin will explore around like his third brother Bryan.

But once a major incident happened in the country, no matter where he was, he would immediately rush back to Ironforge and firmly obey the king's orders.

In order to distinguish Wellles Deep Shadow, who was also promoted to the title of Earl, Quel'Thalas called Sharlayan the Little Earl Deep Shadow both at home and abroad.

Compared with Welles, who has always been low-key, the name of this little Earl of Deep Shadow has been heard frequently in recent years.

He seems to have boundless energy, and he can usually be seen in any corner of the world when major events happen.

Over time, the top leaders of various countries have gradually realized that once this master appears, something big will usually happen.

The three Bronzebeard brothers all speculated about Sharlayan's intentions, and had different opinions.

Magni worried that the arrival of Sharlayan might herald bad things to happen in the kingdom of Khaz Modan.

The optimistic Brian disagreed with his elder brother's pessimistic thoughts. He believed that Sharlayan's search for him by name should be to cooperate with the Explorers' Association to unearth ancient ruins.

Muradin, who is well versed in the doctrine of the golden mean, combined the views of the two, and believed that Sharlayan's intention to come might be related to state affairs and the excavation of the ruins at the same time.

Not to mention, Muradin really guessed it right.

"The origin of the dwarves?!"

Muradin was stunned for two seconds by Sarlayan's astonishing words before realizing it. He stepped forward excitedly and grabbed Sarlayan's waist to question.

"Are you kidding me?"

Normally, a person in a surprised state would usually grab the opponent's shoulders, but Muradin was much shorter than Sarean, so it was easiest to grab the waist.

Sarlayan didn't have the itchy waist that was as sensitive as Valeera's, but being grabbed by the waist eagerly by a man with a big beard... Any normal man would feel very awkward.

"Uh~ Prince Muradin, calm down, this is not the place to talk about business."

Muradin's loud voice attracted the attention of many passers-by. Some dwarves even looked at Sharlayan's face with strange expressions. Their suspicious eyes made Valeera and Stella who were following behind Sarlayan Gosa was very upset.

"cough!"

Valeera, who had a relatively tough personality, coughed heavily, and stared at Muradin with dead fish eyes on her face.

"His Royal Highness, when will you catch him?"

"Well?"

After waking up from the excitement, Muradin realized that his actions were a bit indecent, and hurriedly took a step back and cleared his throat in embarrassment.

"Hmm! Salayan is right, let's go to the throne hall to meet the king first."

...

The throne hall of Ironforge was built near the great forge. The decoration in the hall is very simple, in stark contrast to the extravagant Sunstrider royal family, which intuitively reflects the pragmatic style of the dwarves who do not like extravagance.

This hall was overseen by Anvilmar, the First King of the Mountains.

After Anweimar's death, the three major tribes of the dwarves fought for their own interests, and each supported a puppet king to come to power, starting the War of the Three Hammers that was recorded in history.

Today, the descendants of the Mountain King have long been mascots, and the kingship has fallen to the Bronzebeard clan, the victors of the War of the Three Hammers.

The people of the Kingdom of Khaz Modan don't care who is the king, at best it's just a chat after dinner.

As far as the results are concerned, the Bronzebeard clan has managed the Khaz Modan Kingdom for more than 200 years. The people of the Khaz Modan Kingdom have never opposed their rule on a large scale.

Thanks to the long-sleeved and good dance of the first Bronzebeard Prince Madoran Bronzebeard, the Wildhammer clan, which had been torn apart from the Bronzebeard clan, reunited with the Bronzebeard clan after the Battle of the Three Hammers.

Of course, this is mainly because the two races have a common enemy.

That is the Black Iron Clan, whose ambitions are inflated, trying to fight against two with one.

Sharlayan knew the truth behind the War of the Three Hammers better than anyone living in his day.

Theoretically, at that time, the Black Iron Clan did have the capital to fight against two.

They hold the most respected spellcasters in the kingdom of Khaz Modan, and they have two high-level legendary powerhouses, Prince Thaurissan and Queen Modgud.

If the Dark Iron Clan concentrates the power of the king and queen to break through one of them first, they will have a high probability of winning the final victory.

But the Black Iron clan started fighting against the Bronzebeard and the Wildhammer at the same time, forcefully forcing the two clans that had a rift to join forces to fight against the enemy.

Then they play off.

Modgood was betrayed by the blade of the Dark Empire, the magic weapon he possessed, and died in Grim Batol, the old capital of the Wildhammer dwarves.

Prince Thaurissan was helpless, so in desperation he summoned Ragnaros, the king of the fire element, in an attempt to make a comeback, but instead the whole family was enslaved by the fire element, losing his wife and losing his army.

Since then, the enslaved Dark Iron clan has feuded against all of Azeroth's mortal races.

Ragnaros is a staunch supporter of the Old Gods, and he wants to restore the dark empire of ancient times.

Due to the seal set by the guardians of the titans, Ragnaros, who was summoned to the material world, was just a clone, far less powerful than his main body.

Even so, the powerful elemental demigod is not something that a mere Dark Iron Dwarf can offend.

The Dark Iron and Bronzebeard dwarves have been at war ever since, and to this day, the two still face each other in the contested territory of the Badlands.

If the ruins of Uldaman were to be excavated, 99% would have fierce conflicts with the Black Iron dwarves who were always monitoring the barren land. At that time, the Explorers' Association would inevitably rely on the protection of the regular army of the Bronzebeard dwarves.

It wasn't the first time Sharlayan had met Magni. He had met the dwarf king before at the Azeroth Races Conference held in Silvermoon City.

Most dwarves have a bold temper, and Magni, who is the king of a country, is no exception.

"Long time no see, Earl Deep Shadow, welcome to Ironforge."

Facing Magni's warm welcome, the three of Sharlayan bowed to him politely.

"It is an honor to see you again, honorable Lord of Khaz Modan."

Straightforward dwarves don't like to beat around the bush, and Sharlayan is also used to being straight to the point.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two sides quickly brought the topic to the main topic.

Brian, who was the most irritable, jumped out first: "Sharlayan, I heard from Muradin that you have clues about the origin of the dwarves? Is this true?"

Although Magni's emotions were still under control, it could be seen from his eyes that even the relatively calm dwarf king cared about this topic.

Sharlayan didn't keep a secret, and said bluntly: "It's true, the evidence is buried in the ruins of Uldaman in the northern part of the wasteland."

"The Badlands?"

Magni's eyes flashed, ignoring the excited Brian, and looking at Muradin with a worried look.

‘The rumors are true, troubles are bound to happen wherever this little Earl of Deep Shadow appears. '
