Chapter 443 Green Shadow's Choice
The smell of damp moss mixed with the smell of humus hit me in the face.
The moment Green Shadow pushed open the oak fence, Alvin saw dozens of giant bears with shiny fur huddled in their dens covered with moongrass, their snoring sounding like thunder muffled in a clay pot.
The Night Blade Leopards lay limply on the ground like black satin with its bones removed. The markings that should have shone with moonlight were now covered with a layer of gray.
&34;Lunas! Dawnpaw!&34;
Green Shadow rushed in quickly. She knelt in front of a Night Blade Leopard whose fur was fading, and touched her companion's burning nose with trembling fingers.
&34;A thousand years ago, we were competing to see who had the better ability to transform...&34;
When she opened the Night Blade Leopard's eyelids, she was horrified to find that its irises were covered with spider-web-like bloodshot veins.
Malfurion leaned against the stone pillar, panting.
&34;From the moment Ysera's warning came...&34;
He seemed to be exerting great effort in every word he spoke.
&34;First, a newly promoted druid suddenly fainted during the transformation ritual, and then even the druid who could travel through the Emerald Dream for thirty days and nights...&34;
"The day before yesterday at dawn, our sentinels patrolling Ashenvale discovered a crack in the statue of Cenarius. They disappeared while continuing their investigation further north."
&34;This is the message from our owl messenger.&34;
"Everyone is trapped in a nightmare," Green Shadow said suddenly, as she was using nature magic to check the pulse of an unconscious druid.
"Teacher, Astaro's dream echoes are filled with screams!"
Malfurion slammed his bark-textured palm against the stone wall, shaking off some dust. "I later sent my most favored disciple to bring everyone back to consciousness..."
He suddenly coughed violently, "But now even his soul is lost!"
&34;Now their souls are trapped in layers of nested nightmares!&34; Malfurion said angrily,&34;I can feel the children screaming, but now even I...&34;
Tyrande gently comforted Malfurion,
&34;We wanted to tell the green dragon about the dream.&34;
The priestess's long silver hair swayed in the wind. "But the druids who enter the dreamland can't come back, and we don't know if the message was delivered."
"The Emerald Dream is a reflection of the real world. Problems in the dream only indicate that we have come under severe attack in reality."
The Archdruid said distressedly, "But we have no way out now."
Tyrande stopped her husband who was a little agitated.
"That's right. Our situation is very passive. The druids are asleep, the green dragon and our sentinels are missing, and we have no way to do anything."
"So, Green Shadow, I'm also afraid that you might be in danger. Now you and I are the only two sane druids in Teldrassil..."
Green Shadow bit his lower lip with his silver teeth. Alvin could see the elf's nervousness. He took Green Shadow's hand and whispered,
"Don't worry, I'm with you."
Several people left the beast den and came to a stone table outside. Tyrande helped Malfurion sit down.
"It's presumptuous, but Alvin, we can only count on you now."
Tyrande looked Elwynn in the eye and said, "I was a little worried at first, but when I saw the miracle Elune performed for you, I completely trusted the judgment of the Green Dragon Queen."
Alvin was somewhat flattered and replied modestly.
"So, there's no clue about the Druid situation?"
"It's a nightmare that has invaded the druids' dreams. Their souls are trapped in the dream and are still struggling. But we have no idea where the nightmare came from or where the attack started. I must stay here and use my power to keep them alive, but now..."
Malfurion said painfully: "I will fall into a deep sleep at any time, and then everything will be over..."
Tyrande and Malfurion wore pained expressions.
Alvin was also helpless. He had never imagined that things had become so serious.
The green dragon and the sentinel are missing, and even a great druid like Malfurion is in danger...
But Alvin has no idea what the druids' dreams are about, so how can he help them?
"Let me do it!"
Green Shadow stood up.
"Teacher just said that I'm still the only druid still awake. Don't worry, I'll protect everyone together with you!"
"no!"
Tyrande immediately refused.
The priestess held up Green Shadow's face, and the moonlight flowed through her fingertips into the druid girl's reddening eyes: "Ten thousand years ago, when I took your swaddling clothes from Queen Yinsera, you were no heavier than a Night Saber Leopard cub."
She wiped away the icy tears that condensed on the girl's eyelashes and said, "Now do you want me to watch you walk towards your nightmare?"
"But......"
"You should trust your teacher!"
Malfurion coughed and forced a smile.
"You should know that your teacher is the famous Malfurion Stormrage, the world's first druid."
Green Shadow showed an embarrassment on his face and looked at Alvin.
Alvin saw the confusion on her face and felt Green Shadow's body trembling slightly.
"Do what you want, Myra Greenshadow, and you should trust your master."
Irwin spoke firmly without caring about the elves present.
He gently stroked Green Shadow's silver hair with his hand.
Green Shadow looked into Alvin's eyes and felt greatly encouraged.
She nodded.
Turning back, he turned to the two Kaldorei leaders.
"When my teacher taught me the art of balance, he said—"
She clutched the crow statue pendant hanging on her chest, "True protection sometimes requires leaping into the abyss."
"Of course I believe in you, my teacher, but I also want you to believe in me. Green Shadow will show you that after all this experience, I have matured and become a druid who can stand on my own. I will protect you, my teacher, and all my compatriots!"
Seeing that Malfurion was about to speak, Green Shadow interrupted him.
"I also believe in my master. Even if I'm not by his side, he will be able to quickly resolve the Kaldorei's predicament and save us from the unknown terror."
She suddenly spoke in a gentle tone, took Tyrande and Malfurion's hands,
"Teachers are like my adoptive parents. I'm aware of your love and care for me, but now is not the time to act rashly. I may be your daughter, but I'm also a proud Kaldorei. To this day, I still remember following you in battle against the Zerg in Silithus."
"Now is the time for me to step up and protect you."
The two Kaldorei leaders said nothing, their eyes filled with tears, and they embraced Green Shadow together.
An illusory picture appeared in front of Malfurion's eyes: a green shadow wearing broken armor was opening a barrier in front of the Nightmare Rift, and behind her were hundreds of awakened druids.
&34;Our little lark...&34;
The Moon Priestess choked up and hugged Green Shadow in her arms, "When did it grow taller than the World Tree?"
"Our Green Shadow is already a grown-up girl!"
Malfurion burst into tears as he spoke.
Tyrande looked at her husband speechlessly, a peaceful expression on her face as she stroked Green Shadow's long hair.
"I'm sorry. It's my fault. I should have believed you. You have always been my pride."
