"Jaina!"
Although it had been a long time, Galen still managed to recall the memories of this little girl from his past. He hadn't expected time to pass so quickly. Several years had gone by with the war, and the people in his memories had all grown up.
Galen suddenly remembered that he had two future Sons of the World in Minas Tirith Gul'dan was already five or six years old, and Med'an was also two years old. Although he would return to Minas Tirith to see them, he was always in a hurry. When he had time, he would have to teach these two well, and also cultivate their feelings and bonds.
"What are you doing here?"
Galen had no idea that Gandalf had taken two female apprentices at once. Recently, he had either been rushing to reinforce various places or camping and trying to find opportunities to be alone with Alleria and Sylvanas. He only felt that the days were passing quickly. Anyway, he would just fight when he saw Orcs, and basically didn't use his brain much.
"I came with Master Gandalf. He said he would bring us to see the world, to learn about the Orc race in advance, so that we won't forget this war of aggression when we grow up!"
What she said was right, and it made sense. In the future, when Jaina grows up and sees the Orc slaves in the internment camps, she will inevitably sympathize with these former thugs, and she will be a dove when facing the Orcs. It was not until she lost everything and turned white overnight that she changed her mentality. What was she doing for those ten years in between?
However, apprentice? If you were Antonidas' apprentice, I wouldn't be surprised. What did I just hear?
Gandalf? Master?
Damn, Galen has basically been following the script he prepared. The Orcs landed in the Hillsbrad region, and he let them break through successfully. He didn't block the passage to the Hinterlands, and he didn't use his full strength on the High Elf side. Apart from doing some small things in the middle to seek benefits for himself, the timeline has not changed much. Chromie, that little thing, has been in Minas Tirith and hasn't gone out much. He has to check the map of the Heart of Origin before going to bed every day, for fear that what he does is too much and Chromie will raid him at night!
Defense day and night, it is difficult to guard against domestic thieves!
No, after all the calculations, the one who stabbed me in the back is actually you, you old white-bearded thing!
Gandalf!
I think you want to draw a white check mark logo on your mage robe and shoes!
Ah?
You want to be resurrected several more times in the Altar of Kings, right!
You want me to be investigated by the Bronze Dragon!
Chromie in the distance sneered, hum, I'll just watch you change this timeline quietly, and wait for the Dragon King to appear from the Timewalking and see how he checks your water meter.
"Gandalf, what's going on?"
Galen smiled on the surface, but in his heart, he had already pierced Gandalf with ten thousand arrows and slowly sliced him ten thousand times.
The old mage looked calm: "This is the order of His Majesty the King, to take in the eldest lady of the Barov family as an apprentice. It just so happens that Jaina also came to study, and the old man thinks that it is the same to raise one sheep or teach two sheep, so I simply took them together."
Galen was speechless. What was his father doing?
"Galen, quickly put this little girl down."
Sylvanas took a step forward and said to Galen, her right hand already secretly pinching the right position on her lower back, followed by a one hundred and eighty degree rotation.
Hiss!
This is even more damaging than Samuro's warblade. Galen quickly put Jaina, who was hanging on him, down.
Only then did he notice that there were three other people behind Jaina, two young girls and a strong young boy.
"Jaina, quickly introduce your friends." Galen rubbed his lower back without a trace, and then changed the subject.
"This is Princess Calia, this is Arthas, Princess Calia's younger brother, this is Ilucia, also Master's apprentice, Ilucia and I are both your junior sisters, Brother Galen."
So they are Terenas' children. Galen glanced at Calia, who should be the same age as him, and then paid more attention to Arthas.
In terms of popularity, this filial son is definitely more famous. Everyone may not know Varian, may not know Galen, but they must have heard of Arthas.
I didn't expect that this big man who was once controlled by him from Lordaeron to Northrend is now just a strong young man. It doesn't seem to be anything outstanding. I was taller, stronger, and better at fighting than him when I was ten years old.
Arthas was also looking at Galen, thinking that this Stromgarde prince, Uncle Thoras's son, seemed to be just like that, not as tall as Master Uther, not as strong as Dathrohan, and didn't have a beautiful beard on his face. Can he really kill an Orc with one sword? When I grow up in the future, I will definitely be stronger than him.
It's just, why are my sister and Sister Ilucia a little blushing!
"Greetings, Princess Calia, Prince Arthas, and also my, um, junior sister Ilucia."
Galen suddenly reacted, Ilucia! One of the Three Beauties of Scholomance, the eldest daughter of the Barov family.
Galen only hoped that the population of his base would reach one million as soon as possible, so that he would not be afraid even if someone came to investigate.
Ilucia blushed a little, seemingly thinking of some little thoughts. She also understood the purpose of her father arranging for her to follow Gandalf, the first mage of Stromgarde, to study, but she did not reject it. First of all, the marriage of human noble children is done this way, and her father has already done a good job. Secondly, Galen is very outstanding, surpassing 99% of human youths.
As for why Calia blushed, she didn't know. This was a secret between her and Ilucia, two new best friends.
Galen introduced the Windrunner sisters and the Alliance adjutant Turalyon to the others. Mograine and Tirion were all lords of Lordaeron, and Arthas and the others knew them all.
It is no exaggeration to say that these people standing in the garden will stir up the future Azeroth. History will remember the first meeting of these young people.
There was nothing new at the banquet. It was nothing more than Terenas thanking Dalaran and Stromgarde for their assistance on behalf of Lordaeron, and at the same time discussing the follow-up plans to continue pursuing Orgrim after the rest.
And Galen's energy was no longer on Orgrim. The population under his command had already reached more than 900,000, and in a few days it would break one million. At that time, his goal would be Grim Batol, and then the next step would be to destroy the Orc and Troll forces in the Hinterlands. As for Orgrim, he could go wherever he wanted.
It's just that Terenas and his father have a good personal relationship, and he has to call Terenas Uncle Terenas in private, plus his identity as an Alliance general, so it's not good to be absent from such a semi-official banquet. Wouldn't it be better to spend time with girls?
Galen ran away as soon as the banquet was over, in order to avoid Jaina. God knows why Sylvanas was even jealous of an eight-year-old loli.
Can't afford to provoke, can't afford to provoke.
