"Why don't you want to go back? Only in the Forest of Wind can they be blessed by the God of Life and protected by the powerful elves. Wandering outside, they will face threats from alien races every day. Even survival is a problem, and What happiness and freedom is there?" Sally said, looking at Bloor with a firm tone.
"Although I have only left the Forest of Wind a few times, in my eyes, this world is different from what you see. The elves wandering outside the Forest of Wind do not often encounter threats from alien races. , On the contrary, many elves can successfully integrate into the local life, just like in this chaotic city, the elves joined the city lord's palace and the Gray Temple and became the managers of this city. Their lives are stable and free." Bloor Shaked his head.
Looking at Sally, who was frowning, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth and said with a bit of ridicule: "And, do you really not know the reason why they left the Forest of Wind? After the race war, Lady Helena opened the Elf Race Reform, the number of elves leaving the Forest of Wind is increasing year by year. They are not abandoned by the God of Life. This is their own choice. What they need is not shelter, but freedom. The elves are naturally protected by nature, and the God of Life God will not abandon them because they leave the Wind Forest, because she also advocates freedom."
"I believe what I have seen is that in the Forest of Wind, the life of elves is at least stable and peaceful, and very few elves have left the Forest of Wind in recent years, but more and more elves have returned to the Forest of Wind. This Doesn't this mean that the Forest of Wind is getting better and better?" Sally thought for a while, but her eyes were no longer so firm.
"They don't leave because they have been shackled, and there is an invisible wall blocking the Forest of Wind. As for the elves who returned to the Forest of Wind, do you think they all returned to the Forest of Wind voluntarily to become members of the major families? Servant? The freedom and comfort you get in the Forest of Wind is based on how many elven slaves have been squeezed? In addition to stability, do they also have a trace of freedom?" Bloor's smile became more and more intense. Ridiculing, looking at Sally is like looking at a simple little girl, an eldest lady who was born in a large family of elves and grew up accepting the orthodox family ideas.
If it were another person, Bloor would have definitely turned away by now, but Sally's identity was rather special, and he saw in her her compassion for the elves.
From her point of view, Helena's reforms have made the elves more powerful and stable. Several major families look glamorous on the surface and perform their own duties, making the entire elves more efficient. This is what happened after the reform. Tangible benefits to the elves.
In the past, the elves were like this in his eyes. For a while, he even admired Helena, who led the reform, thinking that she made the elves good and allowed them to live a comfortable and comfortable life.
After he started to come into contact with the elves living at the bottom, as well as the so-called elves who took the initiative to return to the Forest of Wind, he slowly discovered what kind of darkness was hidden under the glamor of the major families, and the reforms Helena implemented , which is tantamount to a disaster for the elves.
Therefore, Bloor saw his own shadow in Sally, and also hoped that the wandering elves could return to the Wind Forest and live a stable and comfortable life.
Now, he just wants to help more elves escape from the elves' former holy land and let them go to a wider and freer world to fight for their own lives.
Sally looked into Bloor's eyes and felt that his words were like drums ringing in her mind. She couldn't help but think of the servants in the family who were busy every day. They never seemed to have time to rest and were everywhere all the time. If you are busy, you may be scolded if you are not careful.
"Are they really happy?" A voice sounded in Sally's heart. Thinking of the tired faces, Sally shook her head in her heart. She could rarely even see smiles on their faces, and she could hardly see them. How can you be happy?
Yes, they lost their freedom after becoming slaves and could not even leave the territories of major families.
Although the major families accept the elves who become slaves in accordance with the Elf Code, when Sally calms down and reflects, she will find that those who have not done anything bad or even become slaves just because they accidentally entered the territory of the major families Elves, the reason for losing freedom is so ridiculous.
At this moment, Sally's worldview that she had adhered to for more than twenty years began to show signs of collapse. She began to have some doubts about whether the powerful elves were what most elves really wanted.
"For elves, the last thing they need is stability. Nature is our home, and if we lose our freedom, we will lose our souls." Bloor looked at Sally and said seriously: "If you want me to help you continue If you stay in the City of Chaos, then promise me a promise: in the future, whether you become the patriarch of the Brewster family or the Elf Queen, you will seek real freedom for ordinary elves, not so-called security and stability."
Sally looked at Bloor and pursed her lips, but still didn't speak.
"I will come to Maimi's Restaurant again tomorrow night. I hope you can make your choice." Bloor did not urge him, nodded slightly, turned and left.
"What is true freedom?" Sally stood there, the cold moonlight falling on her body, elongating a shadow on the grass. She looked at her own shadow and fell into deep thought.
…
"Father, can we go see the little stars?" In the restaurant, Amy, who had just finished taking a shower and put on her bear pajamas, was completely sleepless and looked at Mag with her bright eyes.
"Okay." Mag, who was planning to lie down early and learn to cook, looked at Amy's cute appearance and couldn't help but nodded.
"Okay! Ugly duckling, let's go stargazing." Amy happily picked up the ugly duckling and ran towards the balcony on the third floor first.
Mag smiled and turned on the stair light, followed Amy and walked upstairs.
"Today's moon is so round and beautiful, like a big cake. I really want to take a bite." As soon as she went out, Amy looked up at the moon in the sky and shouted happily.
Mag also looked up at the bright moon in the sky, which was almost turning into a perfect circle. Hearing Amy's words, he suddenly missed the Mid-Autumn Festival. The days of admiring the moon and eating mooncakes were really gone forever. Woolen cloth.
"Father, can the moon be eaten?" Amy turned her head and looked at Mag and asked, her little face full of curiosity and expectation.
"According to the time conversion of this world, in three days, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival. Although there is no Mid-Autumn Festival in this world, why not eat moon cakes and hold a Mid-Autumn Festival to celebrate?" An idea suddenly popped into Mag's mind. , and then spread uncontrollably in my heart.
