Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the Dark Moon Trial arrived.
The trial took place at night, which the night elves referred to as "Dark Moon Night."
In the sorcerer world, it was called the "Waning Moon," a time when only a sliver of the moon was visible—an astrological phenomenon that typically occurred three or four times a year.
The trial was held not far behind the royal court, in the Dark Moon Forbidden Forest.
"Your Highness Kolebas, you don't mind if we bring some people to join in the excitement, do you?"
"This is our clan's grand event. I certainly don't mind if you wish to witness it, but make no disrespectful actions later on, otherwise you'll see if my Gray Shadow Staff agrees."
"Of course, everything we do will comply with the imperial customs, without any disrespect."
When the High Priest arrived with his entourage, he found that seven or eight great matriarchs were already present; their intentions were clearly not benign.
