NOVEL WEB Chapter 662 The Split Of Night Elves
In the society of the night elves, arcane attainments are regarded as a noble pursuit. Whether they are civilians or nobles, as long as they have certain arcane talents and talents, they can apply to join the Moon Guard.
However, among this elite army of mages, the figures of the upper elf always dominate.
The reason is simple - the monopoly on knowledge.
Ordinary civilians have few opportunities to come into contact with the mysterious Well of Eternity and esoteric arcane knowledge, which makes them difficult to walk on the arcane path. People like Illidan, who was born as a commoner, but relied on outstanding talent and hard work to climb up the ranks of the Moon Guard, and finally achieved a high position, are really rare, and it will be difficult to reproduce his style even in 800 years.
Therefore, the upper elf began to rely on their nobility and had a strong sense of superiority over ordinary night elf civilians. They were eager to maintain their privileged status forever and enjoy the awe and worship of the civilians.
In fact, this kind of thing doesn't only happen in Azeroth in War of the Ancients. The same thing is common in Blue Star, in Teyvat, in the Koprulu Sector, in ancient times, in modern times... and among nobles and upper-class people in all eras and worlds.
Once it is discovered that the lower class "untouchables" are showing signs of counterattack, these privileged classes, who usually always have internal disputes, will immediately unite and act unanimously to protect their vested interests.
This is where the conflict between the two major classes of the Dark Night Empire arises.
The upper elf insists that the status of mages - or - arcane nobles should be equal to that of moon priests, much higher than the lower level commoners.
This concept has been strengthened in the belief in the moon god that has existed since the rise of the night elves, and has become a powerful weapon for the high-level elves to legitimize themselves. However, this kind of class solidification and social injustice also intensified the internal conflicts of night elf society, laying the groundwork for future changes.
However, when Cenarius introduced the ways of the druid to night elf society, he opened up a new path of power for ordinary civilians.
The way of nature and harmony taught by this great teacher made the common people feel unprecedented power and freedom.
Under the unremitting preaching of Malfurion Archdruid, the Druid sect has grown rapidly in recent years, and more and more civilians have joined their ranks. These new druids found their place in the embrace of nature. They learned to live in harmony with nature and absorb the power of nature.
With the rise of civilian power, the authority of the nobility was naturally challenged. According to Tyrande, in recent decades, there have been endless examples of druids resisting the rough rule of lords. They were no longer willing to endure the oppression and exploitation of the nobles, but bravely stood up and used their own strength to safeguard justice and fairness.
As the pinnacle of all nobles and the true spokesperson of aristocratic politics, Queen Azshara naturally heard the demands of her subjects.
However, Cenarius is backed by the Holy Mountain of Hyjal, where the demigods gather. In front of these representatives of natural forces, even a powerful person like Azshara does not dare to act rashly. In this stalemate situation, the contradictions are deepening day by day, and a storm is brewing.
Under Azshara's forbearance, the conflicts are getting deeper and deeper day by day.
The upper elves felt an unprecedented crisis. They discovered to their horror that their authority was being challenged by civilian forces. In order to maintain their status, they intensified their management of territorial affairs, even resorting to more severe measures. However, this approach provoked a stronger backlash from civilian forces.
At this critical moment, the Highborne Elves made a breakthrough in their in-depth research on the use of eternity.
Under the planning of Chief Advisor Xavius, the Highborne elves gathered near the Well of Eternity, trying to use the power of the well water to explore unknown territories.
However, they did not expect that this act would accidentally connect to the Twisting Nether and then get in touch with the Burning Legion.
It was at this moment that Sargeras, the dark titan who was eyeing Azeroth, sensed this opportunity. He was secretly happy because these ignorant and fearless high-borne elves had just fallen into his trap.
Therefore, he decided to once again use the trick that had deceived the three giants of the Eredar, disguised himself as a noble bronze titan, and issued a tempting solicitation to Azshara and the upper elves.
Back then, wise men like Kil'jaeden and Archimonde failed to see through Sargeras's tricks. As a result, most of the entire eredar clan became minions of the Burning Legion, and their hometown Argus was also destroyed. It became the headquarters of the Burning Legion. Only the prophet Velen led a small number of Eredar people to escape their fate with the help of the holy light creature Naaru, and eventually evolved into the future Draenei.
Now, Queen Azshara and the highborne are entering a fate similar to that of the Eretians.
In order to pursue great power and supreme personal authority, Queen Azshara couldn't help but feel an inexplicable excitement in her heart when she heard Sargeras's solicitation. She seemed to see herself standing at the pinnacle of power, becoming a being that no one could challenge.
As a result, she developed a keen interest in these so-called "gods".
The highborne elves also have evil intentions. They believed that the arrival of Sargeras was their hope of re-establishing the aristocratic order. They are eager to use the power of this "god envoy" to consolidate their position and suppress the rising civilian forces.
Both sides had their own hidden agendas, but they reached a consensus in an instant. Queen Azshara decided to open the Well of Eternity to a limited extent, allowing the demons of the Burning Legion to enter Azeroth on a small scale. This decision has cast a heavy shadow on the future of this continent, and an unprecedented disaster is about to strike.
The demons who first entered Azeroth strictly followed the orders of the Dark Titan Sargeras. Despite their powerful power, these demons show unusual restraint when faced with creatures that they regard as ants, and are even willing to obey the command and dispatch of the highborne to a certain extent.
Following the instructions of the high-level elves, they carried out precise and bloody suppression of those civilian forces who danced more happily. This crackdown was swift and effective, much to the satisfaction of Azshara and the Highborne.
Therefore, with the acquiescence of Queen Azshara, the Highborne began to use the power of the Well of Eternity to introduce more and more demon lords into Azeroth. These demon lords are all powerful, and their joining has allowed the Burning Legion to rapidly grow in power in Azeroth.
However, as the situation develops, the demons gradually begin to show their true colors.
They were no longer content to obey the orders of the high-level elves, and began to become more and more unruly, even turning against the guests. In addition to maintaining a trace of respect for Azshara, the queen with powerful arcane power, they have completely revealed their true colors when dealing with other highborne.
••*****............
In their eyes, the powerful Azshara may become another giant of the Legion after joining the Burning Legion, just like Kil'jaeden and Archimonde. As for the high elves of Flower, in their eyes They are all just ants.
In the upper echelons of night elf society, some rational voices began to sound. They no longer blindly follow the footsteps of the Burning Legion, but begin to re-examine the demons who are respected as "angels".
Elisande, the Great Magister of Suramar, is the best among these rational representatives.
Elisande stood on the heights of Suramar City, overlooking the surrounding land eroded by evil energy. She witnessed with her own eyes all the evil deeds committed by the Burning Legion around Suramar, and her heart was full of doubts and uneasiness. She began to doubt the true motives of these demons, fearing that they did not have the interests of the Highborne above all else.
In order to verify his conjecture, Elisande began to investigate secretly.
She sent her magisters to sneak into the devil's camp to collect intelligence and evidence. After a period of hard work, she finally mastered some conclusive information, proving that the Burning Legion was not as friendly and obedient as they appeared.

Therefore, Elisande decided to speak to Queen Azshara and remind her of the threat of the Burning Legion. She prepared a detailed report detailing the evil deeds of the demons and their true purpose.
However, the report eventually fell into the hands of chief consultant Savvis.
Xavius scorned Elisande's report, believing that it was Elisande's alarmist attempt to undermine the cooperative relationship between the Highborne and the Burning Legion. So, he suppressed the report and did not let Queen Azshara see it.
In fact, even if the Queen sees this report, with her fanatical pursuit of power, she will not obey Elisande's opinion.
Elisande was disappointed and angry when her appeal went unanswered. She realized that if the true face of the demon could not be revealed in time, the future of the Highborne would be in jeopardy. then
She made a resolute decision: Suramar City would no longer participate in the dangerous deal between the demon and the queen.
Under Elisande's order, the magisters of Suramar began to take action. They used many artifacts unearthed over the years, channeled the power of these artifacts, and launched a fierce attack on the fel portal near Suramar. With bursts of roars and explosions, those evil portals were destroyed one by one, cutting off the demons' access to Azeroth.
In order to protect the safety of Suramar City, Elisande used the power of the Eye of Aman'Thul, the Pillar of Creation, to create a source of magic called the Night Well. This mouth contains powerful energy and can provide a steady stream of magic support for Suramar City.
At the same time, Elisande also built a solid barrier outside the inner city of Suramar, completely separating the inner and outer cities.
In this way, when the civilians in the outer city of Suramar were slaughtered by demons, the high elves in the inner city of Suramar were able to survive alone. They hid in the haven created by the Grand Magister and lived a peaceful and comfortable life.
However, this peaceful life also cost them a heavy price - they had to be completely isolated from other tribesmen and became an isolated island on the continent of Azeroth.
