As Sauron began to unfold his sinister actions, the Second White Council proposed by Turka many years ago was also held in Rivendell.
Those same people were present at the meeting.
But the issues discussed became more serious.
"Gandalf, how many more times do I have to say it to get you to wake up from your fuss? Do you have to keep annoying us with boring things over and over again? Evidence, I said it many times, evidence ! If you really want us to accept your point of view, please present your evidence! Instead of some specious conjectures, conjectures, and random thoughts!" The white-robed wizard still looked aloof, with a cold face and narrowed eyes. He stared hard at the gray-robed wizard and his allies.
This includes but is not limited to the silver-white king and the brown-robed wizard.
In addition, Cirdan of Gray Harbor, Elrond and Glorfindel of Rivendell, Lady Galadriel and Celeborn of Golden Forest are also very likely to be on his side.
It can be said that with the passage of time and many events over the years, the nominal leader of the White Council, Saruman the White, has gradually lost the trust of the members of the Council. Now, even the representatives of the Woodland Kingdom use an unfamiliar expression. Look at him. This made Saruman extremely angry and ashamed.
"Isn't the fall of Alatar and Palando a strong evidence?" Radagast retorted. This was extremely rare in the long years.
Friends of the forest have never liked to join in the fun, and are not very enthusiastic about things in Middle-earth. If possible, he even prefers to stay in the forest, among flowers, plants and animals.
But Annuminas and his party made the brown-robed wizard clearly realize that a dark force was indeed trying to make a comeback. Thinking that his colleagues in Valinor were actually the masterminds of the last plague in Middle-earth, it was hard for him not to think of some evil enemy.
"We all know that Sauron alone cannot drive Istar!" The short Radagast sat on a stone-carved chair, his hands empty.
"Don't forget, the Fire Demon and the Wolf King appeared before. This is also a power that Sauron cannot control alone!" The gray-robed wizard who had disappeared for a while reappeared in everyone's sight, and he became even more vicissitudes of life. The pointed hat was placed on the far table, and the cane lay beside him. His beard and hair were messy, as if he hadn't taken care of them for a long time, and he was even more unkempt than the brown-robed wizard who always looked slovenly.
"This is indeed a question that deserves to be taken seriously." Elrond's handsome face and eyes reflected the cold starlight: "Many of us have faced Sauron's power, but can he use it?" Ancient fallen creatures? I'm skeptical. And if Mithrandir and Radagast are right, it's clear that Ishtar is among our enemies! This will be the first time since the First Age that This is one of the most serious situations since the War of Wrath."
He asked Cirdan: "Do the mighty ones of the West know what is happening in this place?"
Yes, the shipbuilders who have not been present since the establishment of the White Council are also here.
Everyone looked at the master of Gray Harbor who was sitting aside.
Childan was seen wearing an exquisite light gray robe, with a silver forehead crown on his head, and his gray beard was swaying slightly in the gentle night wind.
"The Lord of Waters has not answered my prayers, and neither have the Valar," Cirdan said, shaking his head. This was the eldest of the Elves who was beloved by Ulmo, and if he said no, it was no.
And this increased the worries of everyone present.
"But enough predictions about the future." The beautiful Lady Galadriel spoke, and her voice flowed into everyone's hearts like clear spring water. Her eyes were bright and radiant, as if there was light blooming within them. "We have all felt the changes in the world. Ancient powers are resurrecting, some good and some bad. It would not be surprising if the enemy of darkness really comes back."
Almost everyone present had experienced various tragic fates in the First Era and even the Twin Sacred Trees Era. When the name of the enemy that had brought countless sorrow and death to the earth reappeared, the elves and wizards all shouted. Chills.
"This is impossible!" the white-robed wizard said almost angrily: "It is impossible for him to return to Arda in this era! Madam, I don't want to say this, but based on some specious guesses, I regard unreliable conclusions as true. Thing, that’s not wise!”
Faced with Saruman's rudeness, Galadriel did not refute, just looked at him deeply and selectively closed his mouth.
"This is the most reasonable inference." A voice said.
It's Turka Aracano.
At this moment, he was standing on the open-air balcony, looking at the valley that was as beautiful as a fairyland at night. His tall figure stretched so long under the stars that he almost touched the stone table of the meeting.
So Saruman closed his mouth all of a sudden, his eyes showing a complex light that was mixed with jealousy and fear.
When other people saw it, they all looked over.
Turka turned his head, his iconic vertical pupils shining faintly: "If not, please give an explanation that you think is reasonable. If you are right, we will listen."
It is said that Saruman instantly became furious. Because the Silver King then accused him of not following the orders of the last council, causing the humans of Rohan to suffer heavy casualties. The previous hussar king even died because of this.
However, the people of Annuminas and Minas Tirith managed to escape with the help of the brown wizard and the gray wizard.
In comparison, what the white-robed wizard did was so disappointing.
Coupled with his various disreputable actions over the years, Turka proposed on the spot to remove the white-robed wizard from his title and honor as the leader of the good camp.
As a result, as the destined son blessed by the Western Holy Land, Turka's proposal was quickly approved. Galadriel of the Golden Forest seemed to hesitate for a while, but finally nodded with a slight sigh.
When others saw it, they all agreed. This shows how disappointing the white-robed wizard's actions have been over the years.
Gandalf seemed to want to restore the broken relationship between the two parties at first, but both Turka and Saruman knew that they could not be on the same page.
Especially, I saw representatives from the Woodland Kingdom choosing to remain silent one after another. Saruman's face turned dark. Jealousy and anger made him lose the reason that wizards are proud of. He tried to fool everyone with his lies, but those present were countless powerful people in Middle-earth. Saruman's voice was There is no power here.
"Then let's see what great things you can do!" He left the table angrily.
As a result, Turka said: "What you did is really betraying your status, Saruman, be careful! Excessive jealousy and curiosity will make you fall into darkness! Also, don't forget, the Valar are watching everything!"
The white-robed wizard's steps faltered.
