When the goodness of the past brings back the hope of new life, the trajectory of destiny changes here. ——The end of the last chapter of the Elf epic "nak-ruste".
In the year 3016 of the Third Era, when the beautiful and holy white sail of Al Quolongdi pierced the horizon and returned to Middle-earth from the west of the Belegal Sea, the entire Gray Port was shocked.
A large number of Falas elves and a small number of Noldor elves gathered on the white embankment, looking towards the west. Many people had excited expressions on their faces and eyes, and their hearts were filled with joy.
Since the Noldor elves led by Fëanor returned from Aman in 1497 of the Double Tree Era, for a long time, only the elves have returned to the west from the Middle Earth and escaped from the cage of this world.
Now, countless years have passed, and those Karakundi (light elves, high elves) who existed in the blessed land of the west in ancient times have returned from Valinor again, bringing the prophesied hope and the signal of the change of the era.
Then, a very ancient elven song was sung. That was when the Noldor, Vanya, and Teleri elves were still living together in Valinor; when the filth and rumors in the darkness had not yet been revealed; before the sad first kin-killing occurred, Ingwë, Finwë, and In the era when Orwei still led his people wisely, the cheerful notes of harmony, mutual help, happiness and contentment among the three races of elves circulated in Aman.
The envoy of Orwë was very surprised to hear such a long and beautiful song in Middle-earth. He boarded the pier of Gray Harbor, put up the royal flag of the Teleri elves, with a white swan ship on it, and said: " I am Orophinwë, son of Orphinwë! On behalf of the royal family of the West, I only send my long-lost greetings to my relatives stranded in Middle-earth."
He is the brother of Seros and Galion, and the eldest brother of Earwen. Orwy's sons had a good relationship with Finarfin, and they often went out hunting and drinking together. Earwen even later married Finarfin. However, due to the first kin-killing, the relationship between the Teleri elves and the Noldor elves became sour, and they reduced their interactions.
It was not until Feanor and his seven sons, who caused the turmoil, returned to the palace of Mandos one by one that the relationship between the two clans eased.
At that time, Childan was very happy to welcome his nephew back on the white steps. (Círdan's original name was Nowë, and he was later called Círdan, the shipbuilder, because of his superb shipbuilding skills.) He also sent an envoy to follow Olofenwe to the northern kingdom of Elpera to meet with the Dragonborn.
When these tall and handsome high elves, with their bodies and faces shining with the light of Valinor, came from the west under the banner of the king, Annuminas rang out a grand and loud song.
"The white sails reappear, and the people of the West return to the Middle Earth!"
The prediction of the gray-robed wizard that day was still in their ears, and no one had forgotten it. Now, the arrival of Olofenwei and other envoys seems to prove that the wizard's prophecy has been fulfilled!
Countless residents of Colorful Stone City opened their windows and doors and stood on both sides of the white and wide streets. With excitement and pride, they witnessed the arrival of these legendary races in the capital of the Silver King.
Cheers and white petals stretch from the city gate to the King's Ring at the top.
The people of Middle-earth use this method to express their welcome and excitement to the legendary people. This is a far cry from the treatment the Noldor elves received when they returned to Middle-earth for the first time many years ago under the leadership of Feanor and his seven sons.
In fact, when Turka saw the relatives of these wives in the royal court, a smile appeared on his face. "Welcome," said the king: "The glory of the Eldar has returned to Middle-earth. This is the most exciting news of this era."
At that time, the high elves were also shocked by the dragonborn's power that was more intense and powerful than the ancient elven kings. They saw that Yi Ru's blessing was now more and more brilliant, and the rich light of destiny was shining on the dragonborn. The body is flowing, and the golden vertical pupils are overflowing with light.
Coupled with his majestic body, in the eyes of Olofenwe, Turka Aracano is even more sacred than many Maia.
Therefore, Olofenwei bowed his head deeply and showed elven etiquette to this supreme king who was famous even in the blessed land: "My king deeply feels the pain of being lonely and pitiful for his fellow tribesmen, so I specially ask his tribe to pay attention to it." Return to Central Continent so that they will not lose the favor of their relatives."
At that time, the twins were standing on the first step under the king's throne, looking at these mother's tribesmen with curiosity and joy. It can be seen that these high elves in the west are taller, more beautiful, more elegant and greater than their relatives in the east. The light of Valinor shone in their eyes, their conversations were wonderful, and their looks were pleasing to the eye.
Olofenwe also noticed the two princes. They were also surprised by the magnificent power of destiny in the eyes of the brothers Aratu and Nolatu; they also noticed the pursuit of freedom in the brothers' hearts that originated from the sea elves.
"These are my sons." Turka said: "They will inherit the power of the Teleri and dragons among the elves. I hope that their mother's relatives can teach them well so that love and hope will never pass away from them. , while also allowing the ancient knowledge and power to continue in them.”
At that time, Olofenwe liked the atmosphere of freedom and light in the twins. He said happily: "Their tribe will follow and protect them until the end of the world."
"I don't need protection." Nolatu muttered quietly. His personality is more like the original Fenner, the one with the lively atmosphere in the family. However, his pranks are usually limited to his brother and do not involve others. Therefore, the people of Elpera love the silver-haired Norathu.
Relatively speaking, Aratu, as the eldest brother, is more peaceful. It’s also more majestic. But his speeches always get to the essence of the matter, and he also has his own views on things, so the courtiers prefer the black-haired prince.
The differences in the brothers' personalities did not hinder their affection. Their father did not allow them to quarrel, but asked them to love each other. And Turka also gave his love to any of the twins fairly, so the relationship between the two brothers has always been very good, and they are both full of love for their father.
Turka said helplessly: "Then Elpera will always be open to the elves. Where my order arrives, Orwe and his tribe will enjoy the same treatment as the royal family."
Although Olofenwei didn't care much about Wang Xu's status, he was still very happy to gain precious friendship from the Silver King.
Nolatu, who still wanted to say something, received a warning from his father, so he shut his mouth angrily. As for Aratu, he was more concerned about the knowledge brought by their relatives in the West. He did not forget the Palantir on the tower hill, and was extremely curious about the knowledge of the ancient elves.
In this way, Olofenwe settled in Annuminas and took on the important task of teaching the two princes.
This greatly makes Elpera even greater.
Because as Turka said, these high elves who returned from the west brought with them all kinds of new and powerful things and knowledge that were born in the blessed land since ancient times.
Among them, Olofenwei presented many gems that were polished to be extremely magnificent and brilliant to the Silver King. They are colorless, but glow blue and silver when exposed to sunlight. Neither the Elves nor the Dwarves of Middle-earth could create something so beautiful, not even the Elves and Dwarves craftsmen of the First Age.
Because these technologies have long been lost in Central Continent.
And these beautiful things were made by the Elves when the Trees still existed in Valinor. What they contain is not cold stone, but the holy light of Valinor.
Fëanor was the most outstanding craftsman among the elves. He created the diamond that contained the light of the twin sacred trees, which triggered a series of subsequent tragedies. Although other elven craftsmen are not as skilled as him, they have also created many beautiful things that contain the holy light of Vera.
The Noldor elves took many similar treasures with them when they defected, but unfortunately not many survived in the end. Even Lady Galadriel and Elrond in the Golden Forest could not find any of them. A beautiful thing forged by the elves of old.
But these precious gems and things were used by the elves in Valinor to decorate their palaces and lands, making their towns and ports shine as brightly as the palaces of Manwe.
The coast of Okuolongdi is paved with gems and pearls of various colors. Under the sunlight and moonlight, it is more dazzling than the stars in the sky.
As the envoy sent by Orwë back to Middle-earth, Orofenwe only brought a small part as a gift to the Silver King. But even so, their brilliance still illuminated the king's palace.
It is said that Turka liked these beautiful gems very much, and he embedded the three most beautiful gems on the throne to represent the Aracano family. They radiate the most beautiful light in Middle-earth, more beautiful than the Heart of the Mountain. At the same time, Turka ordered the elven craftsmen and Thorin's tribe to use the remaining gems to forge many powerful jewelry and weapons.
And these powerful weapons and accessories played a great role in the decisive battle between light and darkness in the future.
Just as the north became more glorious and great, just as the prophecies of Eonwë and the gray robe wizards began to come true, Sauron also noticed the wind full of hope and change coming from the west. The high elves returned to Middle-earth in their white sailing ships!
Rumor has it that this greatly made the Dark Lord angry, restless, and jealous. Because every time he spent time planning and plotting, the great king in the north gained more power than him: now, even Sauron began to fear the power of the dragonborn, and his power even began to exceed the dimension. Pull and Yiru set the rules.
Even the beautiful and happy Eldar came back to help him - although they were just 'sailors' that the master behind him had always looked down upon, but as a second-level Maia, Sauron did not challenge an entire group of people from ancient times. The confidence of the elves who have been immersed in the light of Valinor since the beginning of the period.
So during that time, Sauron became increasingly anxious and fearful. Because he could feel that his end was coming. In this urgent unease, Sauron did an irrational thing.
He murdered Denethor II.
At that time, due to the disappearance of Boromir and Faramir, Denethor, who had witnessed something secret, became depressed. He no longer cared about national affairs and people's livelihood, nor did he care about what the human world would become. He hid in the king's palace all day long, feeling sorry for himself.
But as long as he reigns, he is still Lord of all Gondor. The humans of Gondor still have a glimmer of hope that they will not completely fall.
However, after the Battle of Osgiliath, Sauron felt that the Hurin family was useless, and he did not want anyone to control or even hinder him when he launched an attack on the north. So Sauron murdered the controversial king on a moonless and starless night.
And after the incident, he has been hunting down the crown prince and his brother who later reappeared in the public eye. Although Sauron, who was transformed into Orandil at that time, claimed that he was impersonated by a despicable villain with evil intentions, he still Many people believe that they are the brothers Boromir and Faramir.
As a result, rumors spread among the crowd, and many people were talking that the prime minister had murdered the king. After all, the royal family and the prime minister have been fighting for a long time, and now that the king has died in mysterious circumstances, the most suspicious person is naturally the prime minister who was transformed into Orandil at that time.
Coupled with the Prime Minister's Office's pursuit of the two brothers who were said to be imposters, many people began to distrust the Prime Minister.
However, at that time Sauron no longer cared about what humans thought. After all, although he is afraid of the good camp in Central Continent uniting, the potential of mankind has been almost exhausted by him, and the dwarves have always preferred to hide in the mountains and dig stones. So Sauron mistakenly believed that his only enemies were the beautiful elves.
And when Gondor lost its king again, the news came that power had once again returned to the hands of the ruling prime minister - this was indeed ironic, and I don’t know how Ecthelion, who wanted to restore the king’s power, felt when he heard this. ——Almost all interested people who pay attention to Middle-earth suddenly discovered that the wind direction of the world has changed.
The wind blowing from the south is stronger and more disturbing.
Even the warm wind blowing from the west was affected.
During that time, the sky becomes darker and the wind-whistling, starless nights become longer.
In the wild, certain evils have reappeared in the vast northern lands and southern wilderness. It was as if they had been lurking in the deepest and darkest caves underground. Now that the darkness has grown, they immediately emerged from the ground and started doing evil again. They even crossed the Gray Water River and Cangquan River to take a look at the beautiful and rich northern kingdom.
The land south of the Shire is no longer safe, and smiles and joy disappear from people's faces again. Replaced by long-gone fear and vigilance.
From the Blue Mountains to the Iron Hills, from Umbar to Dovinion, from Mordor to the Gray Mountains, they are all waiting for the horn of war, and the entire Middle-earth continent is about to be stormy.
