In his previous life, Darkus was not interested in things like politics and ideology, and he couldn't even tell the difference between left and right. He only knows that things should be done in stages, and he should do what he wants at each stage. The same principle applies to identity. This is even more true after coming to this world, and this world seems to have no left-center-right ideological issues? There are only political and factional problems, which lead to military problems.
Now that it is clear, Darkos believes that the problem of King Ulthuan can be solved within two hundred years. That is, after he returns from the old world, he will begin to officially intervene in the operations of Nagaroth and Cawchen Plain, and do a good job His job as the Hand of the Witch King is to find opportunities to get rid of the troublesome Morathi and the Cain sect that has become an obstacle to Druchi society.
Under the guidance of Darkus, Malekith changed his path and changed from the previous policy of respecting the strong and selecting the best soldiers who were killed in blood to the policy of selecting the best soldiers of the large army. With the change of policies, the spiritual outlook, ideological trend, economy, population and other issues of Druch society need to be dealt with by him and Malekith, so Heliben and Hal Gancy have become a circle of entanglements. The point that cannot be made clear is that as long as the Cain sect prevails in Nagaros, Drukhi society will not be able to effectively conquer the population.
In fact, it’s okay not to move Heliben at this stage. Then Darkus has to do the math problems of water in and out of the water tank. Just make sure that the annual population growth of Naggaroth exceeds the annual death rate at midnight. That’s it. It's a bit difficult for him, and his policy of selecting elite soldiers of the large army seems to have become an unattainable dream.
Compared with running Naggaroth and launching military operations against Ulthuan, Darkos's biggest headache is the subsequent problems. It's not that he has a mother's heart for his cousins living in Ulthuan or that he doesn't want to commit murder. Save all sentient beings.
In fact, the simplest solution is to kill them all. The problem is... this is not the world of Darkus' previous life. Things seem to have become a paradox. If everyone is killed, why not draw the sword of Kane from the beginning? Why still suppress the Cain sect?
This is too extreme...
There are gods in this world. Although elven gods are generally unreliable, they are still necessary to exist. Without believers, wouldn't these gods become delicious snacks for the dark gods? Walking between worlds as a demigod to avoid the pursuit of the dark gods? And this world needs faith. He can't just put up a red flag all over the world, right?
? Seems possible?
It's like a mess. What Darkus has to do is to untie it one by one, but not to directly work out miracles.
Moreover, the fact that Darkus is able to survive under such a promiscuous situation is not because he is a natural choice, but because he has the identity of Umak and the Elf God to protect him. It also stands to reason that he should be a loner and a man now. Tiansha Lone Star, there are such companions around him who follow him and love him because the elves and gods are protecting them. Otherwise, why didn't Tzeentch attack these elves? Looking forward to more changes? No matter what you do, you win, right?
When adjusting the internal political ecology of Ulthuan, we must also find an outlet for external release. Is it a bit like the threat theory of Darkus in his previous life? Your life is uncomfortable because of what other countries are doing... But this world doesn't seem to be so troublesome, and he has already thought about the outlet now, which is the old world where there are many things to say in the elf society...
Otherwise, it won't be there by then. Suddenly the whole Chaos invasion of Ulthuan or something like that, and then everyone joins forces and has a good fight, and then all the conflicts are cleared instantly. This is too nonsense, all the elves who can live in hundreds or even thousands are Is it a fish? It has no memory.
Of course, all this is a thing for later, and there is no use thinking about it now. We can only operate and layout step by step.
Darkus only knows a few necessary points. First, he is the champion of Marcelan, the Lord of the Elf God Abyss. He wants to ensure Marcelan's interests. To put it bluntly, Marcelan is helping him. He cannot think that this is the case. Of course, although he did not have a grateful heart, he still wanted to repay Marcelan and let those silent elves and gods take a good look. At the same time, both Druchi and Assur pursue a large naval policy. This means that Darkus, as the champion of Marcelan, has an irreconcilable relationship with Mannann in the old world, because for various interests and needs By then, he will inevitably suppress the human ships that sail the oceans and the various monsters and monsters in the sea.
To put it bluntly, Darkus wants to achieve maritime hegemony and monopolize the world's oceans.
At first, Darkus thought that Mannann was Marcelan's vest. Because of the various traces stacked together, it seemed very possible. If this was really the case, then everything would be simple. However, the appearance of Triton clearly proved that his conjecture was wrong. The two sea gods were obviously different from each other. Manann did not cause a storm to lift him into the sea when he was sailing in the ship. There should be Marcelan. Watching, or Mannon thinks he is not that big of a threat yet.
The old world sea god Mannann is also the lord of the ocean, which is changeable and unpredictable, like the unpredictable weather. He is powerful, willful, and cruel, but sometimes performs great acts of kindness, sometimes gentleness, and even entertainment, such as providing food for his followers and bringing them safely to port. When His mood changes, His jealousy and rage can lead to devastating consequences. Menaun's clerics admire his power and soothe his emotions by worshiping him, but none love him like Thalia, Sigmar, or the other gods in the Old World pantheon.
The Mannann sect is prevalent in the coastal areas of the Old World and among groups who live off the sea. The sect has the greatest influence on Marienburg, the largest port city in the Old World. Here, the sect is closely related to the city's trade, defense, diplomacy and survival. . However, due to political and geographical reasons, the sect's influence is limited to this.
In addition to Marienburg, the sect plays an important role in the Nordland and Osterland of the empire. However, as it moves deeper into the interior, the sect's influence gradually decreases.
But you have to look at it in detail. For example, although Osterland has a coastline, its capital, Wolfenburg, is located inland. Except for river guards and boat runners engaged in patrolling the river, few people there would trust Mannann. Nordland is the complete opposite. Sessenmund, the capital city connected to the Claw Sea through the Salz River, has the most magnificent Mannann Temple in Nordland, which can be called the most politically influential Mannann Temple in the empire. .
In Bretonnia, the main audience of the Mannann sect is old farmers, such as Briogne, Leonis, Bordeaux and Le Angoulant. Sailors who operate ships to go fishing or do business will worship Mannann devoutly. , hoping that Mannann can protect them from the countless disasters lurking in the vast ocean. Similarly, the knights of the kingdoms of Bordeaux and Le Angoulant, who have a long maritime tradition, will also pay respect to Mannann when they worship the goddess of the lake.
In Erengrad, Kislev, the Temple of Mannann appears in the form of a large ship. The temple is docked on the dock all year round. The keel of the temple will emerge from the water at high tide. When the war comes, the port is destroyed. , the temple will float freely in the bay. The scarred and battered temple has always survived various attacks and disasters. The priests claim that this is a symbol of Mannarn's divine favor.
Although Mannarn is not only a member of the Kislevian pantheon, the temple is renowned in Erengrad and is also highly worshiped by Kislevian sailors.
Then, the interesting thing came. Things happened in Tilea in the south. Some subtle changes happened...
