If there was any Thief in the mainland that everyone knew about, it had to be Garona .
She was a legend in the world of Azeroth, not only because she had Orc blood, but also because she was regarded as the one who turned the wheel of history .
Yes, Garona was a mixed breed .
During the occupation of Draenor by the Orcs, many Draenei women were assaulted by Orc soldiers . It was in these tumultuous conditions that Garona was born .
However, because she had Orc-like green skin and Draenei ancestry, the local residents didn't put her to death and instead made her a slave . After she fled and tried to join the Orc camp, she was rejected because she was from a weak bloodline .
Eventually, the deceitful Gul'dan generously took her in and allowed her to join the Shadow Council under his control .
Growing up during that period, she was very well-versed in Draenor and Orc culture . This made her invaluable to the Shadow Council and she soon became the Chief Translator, as well as a private spy and an assassin for Gul'dan .
After the Orcs invaded Azeroth, Garona's experienced greatly helped them gain insight into their latest human enemies .
She had been sent by Gul'dan as a secret spy to the Elwynn Forest, but was found and arrested by the humans . To rescue Garona, the Orc Horde raided the Horthshire Abbey, an important stronghold of the Kingdom of Azeroth, and turned it into rubble .
Later, she was sent to assassinate Medivh, but a demi-god like Medivh was not so easy to deal with . He killed his attackers and left Garona to relay a message back to Gul'dan . Gul'dan sent her back to Medivh, but this time, Medivh kept her around .
During her time with Medivh, Garona met Khadgar, his apprentice . He was also a spy from Dalaran sent to watch Medivh .
Khadgar initially hated those of both Orc and Draenei blood, and the feeling was mutual with Garona . As time passed, a mutual trust formed between them, but Garona and Khadgar continued to attack other's races . However, as they learned from each other, they soon suspected that Medivh was keeping from secrets from them .
Eventually, they discovered that Medivh was actually the person who had brought the Orcs into Azeroth through the power of the fallen Titan Sargeras .
As to why Medivh had Sargeras' personality and strength, that was another story .
Khadgar and Garona fled to the Stormwind fortress where they met Ryan and Lothar . The future king had no qualms with her Orc heritage and accepted her .
They then organized a group of people to mount a surprise-attack on Karazhan and kill Medivh .
In the next few months, Garona became King Ryan's most trusted advisor . She told the Lord about the Horde's inner workings, giving them an advantage that they used to deal with them .
However, when the Stormwind Fortress fell, she assassinated King Ryan and brought his heart back to her master Gul'dan .
No one knew what all of this was for, but what happened next surprised everyone – Garona told the Doomhammer where the Shadow Council was held . The Doomhammer then raided the Shadow Council and killed all of its members but Gul'dan .
Later, while Gul'dan was in the process of finding Sargeras' eye, he was destroyed by the demon in Sargeras' tomb .
From that point onwards, Garona was truly free, but her story went much further than that . She had already become pregnant when she assassinated King Lothar, which was simply impossible for Medivh to imagine .
In any case, her child survived, but because she had killed King Ryan, Garona thought she had definitely gone mad . In an attempt to not bring her misfortune upon her son, she found Meliri – a Mage human soul that had lived for more than 3000 years . Garona entrusted her child to her and told her that the boy's name was Med'an .
Since then, Garona had never shown her face again to the world .
"Why did Garona kill the King?" As a member of the Alliance, if Lu Li didn't ask this question, he really wouldn't have been paying attention to her story .
"Who knows? Maybe it was because of Gul'dan's manipulation, or maybe it was because of… Medivh . In any case, it doesn't matter," Pasonia answered as she shook her head . "All in all, it wasn't her intention . She is actually a very simple girl . "
"Simple?"
"She was the one who killed King Lothar of the Stormwind and carried Medivh's son . Both of these things have already made her an incomparable legend…" Lu Li thought to himself .
"Anyway, Varian has since pardoned her crime," Pasonia said .
This was the key point . Although Lu Li did not know when Varian would give up on seeking revenge or what kind of pardon was given, Pasonia had a very close connection to the court and was unlikely to be wrong .
"Where can I find her?" Lu Li asked .
"No one knows where to find her, but I have an idea of where she could be," Pasonia started, then blinked before saying, "She's in Ravenholdt Manor . "
"Ah!" Lu Li and Water Fairy were both stunned .
"There were many speculations about the whereabouts of Garona . Some said that she was dead while others said that she had followed Medivh and disappeared . However, considering what is known, it would have been impossible for her to escape Doomhammer alone if she was seriously injured and pregnant," Pasonia reasoned .
"So someone must have saved her," Lu Li guessed .
"I once interrogated an Orc captive who was an eyewitness to the event . According to his confession, there were two Thieves that came out to repel Doomhammer and take Garona away . I'm afraid to say it, but only Ravenholdt Manor would have a Grand Master Thief like that," Pasonia explained a little uncomfortably .
MI7 was still somewhat younger than the Ravenholdt Manor .
In addition, MI7 consisted of Stormwind's Assassins . Most of them were humans and the average human lifespan was often too short . They would often die before becoming a master .
There were all sorts of races in Ravenholdt Manor .
"Thank you, esteemed madam," Lu Li said, thanking her formally . This information was already enough .
As for how he was going to find Garona in Ravenholdt Manor, he still had no idea, but that wouldn't be too difficult . He was part of the Ravenholdt Manor, so he definitely had an advantage over outsiders .
Lu Li said goodbye to Pasonia and went to the arena; there was an event today that he wanted to attend .
