Chapter 59: Alonsos Fao

Chapter 59 Alonsus Faol

The architectural decoration style on the human side is very different from that of the high elves.

Compared to all buildings in Quel'Thalas that require gorgeousness and refinement as the first requirement, the human side seems to pay more attention to practicality.

At this time, Charlemagne could even see the bricks protruding from some places in the room, which was absolutely not allowed in the high elves' architectural requirements.

The interior decoration is also quite sparse. This place seems to be a platform specially used to welcome the teleportation personnel. Except for a few mages, the whole room looks abnormally empty.

Liadrin was still smiling as she responded to Master Nelson's slight reprimand, and she probably understood the reason from the conversation just now.

Originally, the 7th-ring mage was studying a new subject. Who knew that Baron Rivendell, Lord of Stratholme, suddenly gave him an order to receive a group of high elf priests from Quel'Thalas.

Now Baron Rivendell of Stratholme is of course not the death knight under Alsace, but his father. Stratholme is the fiefdom of the Rivendell family for generations.

For mages, it is really annoying to interrupt their research. After asking the lord about the situation, Nelson was finally unwilling to bring his mages to greet him, and his words naturally brought Some emotions.

It's a pity that the old mage met Liadrin, and seeing the female priest always answering his reprimands with a decent smile, Nelson couldn't continue to lose his temper. In the end, he could only let a mage under him Lead the group to the church district.

After walking out of the mage tower all the way, a group of high elves who also came to the human city for the first time were curiously observing the surrounding buildings.

Just like what Charlemagne observed indoors just now, the technology of human beings using stone to build is very rough, and the exterior walls of many houses have not been carefully painted at all, and the exposed bricks are just presented in front of their eyes.

However, this architectural style different from Quel'Thalas made them feel a little novel. Compared with the red roofs and buildings of Quel'Thalas, most of the buildings in Stratholme have white walls and brown roofs. Quite quaint.

The mage who led the way didn't say much along the way, but kept silently sizing up the high elves with his eyes.

These humans who live in Stratholme, not far from Quel'Thalas, have rarely seen high elves, especially now that they are in such a team, they usually see one or two alone,

On their way from the Mage Tower to the Church of the Holy Light, not only the mage who led the way, but also the residents on the roadside looked at the group of more than a dozen high elves curiously.

Men's eyes are mostly focused on the pastor girls. Of course, it is not ruled out that some people who like philosophy will look at the elf men with delicate features.

Compared to humans with uneven appearance, the high elves are much higher than them in the bottom line of appearance. In the eyes of humans, they are handsome men and women.

Occasionally, some noble ladies who went out shopping also quietly observed the high elf men in the team under the cover of feathered fans.

Compared to the rough guys they are used to, the little fresh meat of the priest in this water is obviously a very rare existence. If there is no mage leading the way in front, I am afraid that someone will come up to strike up a conversation.

Mages also have a very high status in human society. Human mages were first taught by the high elves during the troll war.

Becoming a mage is not an easy task. Leaving aside the issue of talent, staffs, robes and various enchanting equipment are not affordable for ordinary people.

Mages used to be the exclusive profession of the nobility. In recent years, with the increase in the number of mages, a small number of people began to seek out talented commoners to teach them. This gradually allowed mages to enter the common people.

But there are only a small number of civilians with outstanding talents. Once they become prominent, they will naturally follow the guidance of their mentors and strictly select apprentices. Therefore, the status of mages has not been reduced because of the addition of civilians, but their popularity has been further improved.

The church area where the Church of the Holy Light is located is next door to the mage area, with a mage opening the way ahead, Charlemagne and his party only took ten minutes to reach the majestic Church of the Holy Light in Stratholme.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a red bishop's priest's robe had already led a dozen men and women dressed as priests, waiting for them at the church gate.

The mage who led the way saw this scene and first stepped up to the front of the leading middle-aged bishop, and bowed respectfully.

"Bishop Fao, please wait outside, I'm really sorry, I have already brought the guests."

Bishop Fao patted the mage on the shoulder with a gentle smile and said, "The holy light is with you, so you don't have to be so respectful to me. I'm just a believer under the great holy light."

From the title of the mage, Charlemagne and others learned that this middle-aged man with a tendency to go bald at an early age is the Bishop of Stratholme—Alonsos Faol.

Liadrin hurried forward and saluted, "Bishop Faol, I am Liadrin, priest of the Church of the Holy Light in the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, Your Excellency the Archbishop asked me to bring your blessings, may the Holy Light be with you .”

At this time, the mage who had completed the task had already returned to his command under the comfort of Bishop Fao. The bishop with a gentle smile also returned the etiquette to Liadrin.

"May the Holy Light bless you, Pastor Liadrin, we are all people of the Holy Light, there is no need to be so polite, please enter the church and talk to me."

The human crowd who watched the excitement followed behind them until the elves entered the church before they dispersed in disappointment. Some people even prayed devoutly at the door of the church.

Compared with more high elves who believe in the Sunwell, the Church of the Holy Light has spread more widely among the major human kingdoms.

Because of the presence of Alonsus Faol, a bishop with great charisma, in the Diocese of Stratholme, there are countless believers, and some people have even begun to call him a saint.

Based on the merits of Bishop Fao, everyone thought it was a certainty that he would succeed the current Archbishop of Lordaeron after he abdicated, and history also proved that it was true.

Charlemagne can vaguely remember, it seems that the protagonist of Faol was already the archbishop of the entire Kingdom of Lordaeron when the orc invasion began.

After the Stormwind Kingdom was breached, he took the lead in creating the profession of Paladins in the King City of Lordaeron after the meeting formed by the Alliance, and personally conducted the baptism ceremony for the five first-generation Paladins.

These five first-generation paladins are all well-known heroes in later generations, namely Uther Lightbringer, Saidan Dathrohan, Gavinrad Doom, Turalyon and Tirion Fordring.
