Chapter 206 Teclis' Conjecture and Family Affection
"But you should know that the Caledonians do not believe in Lilith. They prefer blades and revenge to wealth and dreams."
Tyrion was not relieved. Imrik's impression is very good, but the Dragon Princes under the Dragon Prince are really worried. In addition, as the leader, Imrik is an absolute hawk, which makes many Dragon Princes have to deal with conflicts. They are all accustomed to using the simplest method.
According to Caledorian tradition, even if those dragon princes really killed Teclis, Imrik would dare to resist the joint pressure of Fenubar and Berannar, and even in turn Imric would Rick put pressure on the two of them, and the act of covering up war criminals would have a great impact on their political careers.
"Yes, but Imrik didn't do that. He obviously wanted to talk to me. Otherwise, given his character, he would have chopped off my head with the Dragon Fire Sword." While speaking, Teclis recalled the scene at that time, and the few words of ancient Elvish language Imric said after stopping Aris Anar. As a physically disabled elf, the things that accompanied Teclis for the longest time were all kinds of things. Books, he had read the history of Ulthuan in his childhood, and after entering the White Tower of Hoth, he showed this hobby unabashedly.
He knew what Imrik said at that time. After returning to the White Tower of Hoth, he read through various books and history just to find possible connections between these terms.
Finally, in a deeply buried and fragmented scroll, Teclis spent a lot of time deciphering the encrypted information on it, and may have found the answer to Asuryan, the Phoenix King, and Aenarion.
After Belshanar's death, Malekith intended to step into the Holy Fire of Asuryan and become the true Phoenix King without relying on the fire-avoidance spell like his father. However, because Asuryan did not approve of the elf who murdered the Phoenix King, he became the true Phoenix King. Only the incarnation of will, so Malekith failed and turned into a piece of meat emitting black smoke and ran out of the holy fire. The Nagarythites waiting next to him killed all the spectators from other kingdoms present. .
According to the current mainstream records, the Phoenix Guard was not present at the time. They went to a secret location to perform the mission under Asuryan's divine order. This is the reason for the success of the Nagarethians.
But the sheepskin scroll found in Teclis that had been crushed into pieces contained different records. The only people in the Platinum Flame Temple who could carry weapons were the Phoenix Guards, and the Phoenix Guards at that time all stayed in the temple. , even Malekith could be seen clearly as he stepped into the holy fire, but these Asuryan guards watched helplessly as the Nagarythians slaughtered the spectators.
Combined with the fact that the eighth Phoenix King Morville died soon after entering the holy fire, but Malekith was still able to use teleportation spells even after being burned twice. This made Teclis, who is naturally intelligent, think of an incredible possibility. Rykis was Asuryan's choice, which would explain why the Phoenix Guard allowed the Nagarythians to enter the temple with weapons, and then allowed them to slaughter all the people in other kingdoms.
And why did the Phoenix Stone he carried with him ignite the Holy Fire in the Witch King's body without any warning when the Witch King was about to be killed by Imric.
He didn't dare to mention this idea to anyone, not even Lilith. He dared not ask. These gods must know the inside story, but they still watched helplessly as the Great Schism of the Elves erupted.
Now Teclis is somewhat suspicious of Lilith's motives, why he only asked Imric to go to Avalon, and prepared a Phoenix Stone for himself that could release the Witch King, and even told him that Imric told him two days ago Gram will support the old world, and he will keep himself safe.
These things were deeply buried in Teclis's heart. He could not imagine that Malekith, who had caused so much harm to the world, could be the real Phoenix King, and Lilith's actions seemed to also provide support for the Witch King's victory. Help. "Perhaps I just want to see Asur and Druchi both hurt. Otherwise, such a move is difficult to explain with common sense." Teclis lowered his head and thought silently. He was trying to get rid of the shackles of the Moon Staff. If As expected, Lilith is helping Malekith regain the Phoenix Throne, so the position of the Chosen One may have to be given to someone else.
Tyrion, who was sitting next to Teclis, sighed. The two brothers often understood each other's thoughts without much communication. He knew that Teclis was under great psychological pressure and his thoughts were very confused. But as the elder brother, Tyrion was powerless to do anything about this kind of thing. He could only try his best to help his brother.
"I will gather a decent force to go to the old world with you, and I will also take over Caledor's side, asking Imric to restrain his men from attacking you." Tyrion, who is naturally proud, wants
to The brother had to lower his head. The best way was to accompany Tigris to the old world and stop the dragon princes who were looking for trouble. But Fenuba would not let them go. The Phoenix Court needed suitable people to guard it. Ka Even after Imrik left for the Old World, Caledor still had several high-ranking dragon princes who could take on important roles. Coupled with the importance of the Dragon Tamer family to Caledor and its thousands of years of rule, there was no need to worry about domestic politics. question.
But it's different for noble merchants like Itaien. Since Italis was found out to be a Druchi spy, which led to a large number of people being purged, the political struggle in Lothern has now reached an extremely serious level. Several The great houses wanted to gain control of the Council of Nobles, and Tyrion was caught up in the struggle.
My grandfather asked Tyrion to provide support many times, but Tyrion, as the general of the Etain army, could not show too obvious political leanings. No one wanted to have politics and military affairs monopolized by one family. Doing so would lead to being dismissed. Allied exclusion and oppression.
Tyrion, who was not sensitive to politics, chose to fulfill his duties as a soldier and prevent political struggles from affecting Lothern's normal production and life. He could only turn a blind eye to his grandfather's request. His prestige was not enough to change Lothern's situation. Political Environment.
"Well, I will make sure to come back safely, brother." Teclis raised his head and looked at Tyrion. The connection between the two brothers was undoubted. He had never doubted his brother's trust and loyalty to him, and he believed in himself. He also has the same trust and loyalty towards his brother Tyrion.
"Of course, this is the agreement between us." Tyrion stood up and reached out to his brother on the chair, just like he held his disabled brother in his childhood.
"This is our agreement."
The two brothers hugged each other. Nothing could change this family relationship. They firmly believed in it.
