[The Silmarillion] Romimus

It is true that Melkor lobbied Romimos to his side almost easily, but this will not reduce his sentence even a bit. Romimos has no right to speak in front of the Valar, no It is doubtful that Melkor deliberately aimed at this point, further deepening the gap between Romemos and Vera.

Although this invisible battle seemed to be a complete victory for Melkor, the Dark Lord still overlooked one point, that is, the intensity of the unquenchable fire burning in Romimos' heart.Although Romimos no longer trusts the Valars, she still has a big gap with those loyal followers of Melkor. On the surface, she seems to have taken refuge in Melkor, but that is only because what Melkor said fits her inner thoughts better. As for Melkor herself, Romimos has no emotional bias, but even so, her way of thinking is somewhat affected.In addition, Romimos actively asked Melkor for advice on various issues, and Milko also underestimated Romimoth's thirst for knowledge and the degree of absorption. For the entire three double tree eras, if Romemos I am afraid that even Melkor himself will be surprised if he lists the abilities and knowledge he has learned from Melkor.

After three epochs, Melkor was brought before the Valar again. Before Manwe, the leader of the Valar, Melkor bowed his knees, asked for forgiveness, and swore that he would reform and make up for all his previous mistakes.

As the guard of Melkor, Romimos firmly insisted that what Melkor said was true, and she did not show any bad behavior during the detention, although her testimony did not have much influence on the final verdict, because the Valars I believe that if Melkor really wanted to play tricks, Romimos would never be aware of it.They never thought about the possibility that Romimos would defect to Melkor's side, and it must be said that this was really one of their stupidest mistakes.

But Melkor was secretly pleasantly surprised by Romimos' performance, not because Romimos said many good things for him, but because Romimos was quite calm when he made up these lies, and his voice did not tremble. It was not at all like the behavior of a person who lied to the fourteen most majestic gods in the world of Arda for the first time on such a formal occasion.

"Sorry to interrupt, Miss Antonia." Glorfindel said suddenly, "Do you mean that Romimus was born to be a liar who is good at lying?"

Antonia turned her head to look at him, but did not answer.

As the sun moved a little to the west, the color of the sunlight coming in through the window became more and more brilliant, and the shadows of everyone and things became long and deep. The ray of light flickers on and off, and his expression is like a smile, not a smile, just like a graceful and treacherous statue in the setting sun.

Glorfindel's breathing slowed a beat.

"I know you may not be willing to admit this, Lord Glorfindel." Aragorn misunderstood the silence and replied Glorfindel, "In terms of the destructive power of a single person, Romimos is actually not Maia is not good at fighting. The reason why she overwhelmed the Balrog and Fire Dragon and became the most hated minion of Morgoth besides Sauron during that period, isn't it because of her well-known double-faced sword? Speaking of elves and humans, didn't even the dark forces suffer from her?"

In short, Manwë forgave him for failing to see through the deepest thoughts of Melkor's heart.At first Melkor behaved well, and soon gained freedom to travel to and from the whole of Aman, but he was always full of jealousy for the happiness of the Valar and the elves, and never really gave up his vicious thoughts. The great prince Feanor created the three Silmarils, and his desire became stronger.Melkor began to spread rumors skillfully among the elves, and even succeeded in arousing fierce conflicts between Feanor and his half-brother Fingolfin for a time, until the two drew their swords to each other, which alarmed Valar. Melkor's conspiracy was revealed, so he could only choose to escape and began to plan to return to his lair in Middle Earth.

After Melkor was released, Romimos finally gained "freedom". Like Melkor, her outrageous thoughts in Vera's view were only temporarily buried in her heart, and she had never been punished because of the previous punishment. And reduced by more than half.During that time, there were not many contacts between Romemos and Melkor. As soon as Romemos returned to Valinor, he immediately devoted himself to a new round of study and research, and rarely had nothing to do. When doing it, and Melkor did not tell Romimos all his plans one by one.

For the turmoil of the Noldor elves, Romimos only had a half-knowledge. Even after he became clear about the cause and effect of the incident, for a long time, Romimos still believed that Melkor's words were not unreasonable, because Melkor encouraged the Noldor The idea of ​​the elves breaking away from Vera's control and going to Middle Continent to gain "freedom" coincided with her, but perhaps it was due to her strong prejudice against Vera, the real sinister intentions of Melkor after the rumors, and the hatred and jealousy he spread , but was regarded by Romimus as a by-product of the arrogance of the Noldor.

When he heard that Melkor was being pursued by Vera, Romimos immediately anticipated the opponent's plan to return to Middle Continent.Suddenly, the restless place deep in her heart was about to move again.Romimos knows that under Vera's surveillance and control, his thoughts will never be understood, let alone put into action, and the only place where they can be realized is in Middle Continent, which is beyond the reach of Vera. After realizing this point, Romemos immediately made up her mind - she wants to leave Aman Island!

During the three epochs in the prison of Mandos, Melkor thought he knew everything about Romimus, but he didn't realize that Romimos was also secretly guessing his thoughts, even though Melkor has a deep mind, and Romemos has only scratched the surface of his thoughts, but in the entire Aman Continent, Romemos is still the person who can guess what is in Melkor's mind most easily.The Valar hunted down Melkor everywhere but failed. After thinking for a while, Romimos set off for Forminos, where Feanor and his sons lived.

Romemos waited patiently there for a while. Sure enough, one day, Melkor came to Forminos and had a conversation with Feno. Romemos watched from afar, not knowing the details of the conversation. I don't care what the content is, but it was obviously not a pleasant conversation. Melkor was rejected by Fenuo unceremoniously, and seemed to gain nothing.

When Melkor passed by, Romimos appeared and called him, "Mi—"

The next second, she was lifted up tightly by the throat, and her body was almost suspended in the air. The expression of the always handsome and gentle god in front of Romemos was terrifying at this moment. There was no doubt that he would be able to snap off his own neck in the next second. Although Maia would not die, it was the first time that Romimos felt fear at that moment.

Fortunately, Melkor reacted immediately, let go of his hand, and apologized hypocritically: "It's you, Romimos. Sorry, I thought it was from Vera."

Romimos fell to the ground as soon as his feet gave way, with lingering fear and tears rolling in his eyes.

"What do you want from me?" Melkor was not in the mood to care about Romemos's emotions. He knew that it would not be long before the Vera got the news and came to arrest him. The anxiety and impatience in his tone could not be hidden. live.

"I..." For a moment, Romimos almost wanted to run away. Even if it was only a short moment, the dangerous and terrifying essence of Melkor's gorgeous and hypocritical appearance was exposed to Romi for the first time without a trace of concealment. In front of Moss, but the yearning for freedom finally overwhelmed the fear, Romimos still asked: "Are you planning to go back to Middle Earth? If possible, can you take me with you?"

Melkor was stunned for a moment, but immediately he thought that with the character of Eromimos, it was only natural for her to make such a decision.

To be honest, when he first planned to escape back to Middle Continent, Melkor really didn't think about taking Romimos with him.

After staring at Mandos prison for three epochs, apart from his extraordinary learning ability, Melkor really didn't find any advantage in Romimos that could be used by him.In terms of magic, as a little-known little Maia, Melko looked down on Romimos at all; in terms of force, Romimos had never even held a sword before; She has a lot of knowledge, but her personality is still more feminine, and the number of times she really picks up the hammer is very small.Not to mention these practical uses, even if it was brought back as a mascot—Melko glanced at Romimos sitting on the ground with red eyes like a little white rabbit—he still felt ashamed of himself.

The only skill that Romimos can show is probably spinning and weaving. No doubt, Melkor sneered at this.

Of course, later facts proved that Romemos's ability was far more than that. If Melkor could use her better for himself, then the combination of these two people would undoubtedly make the Veras a big headache, because from birth In the beginning, the real function of Romimos was never spinning. She was "Twilight Dusk", the junction point between day and night. She pulled the last ray of light into the darkness, and ignited those tiny and hazy hopes in the shadows.Because of this, Romimos is one of the few gods who can suppress the power of Arian, the goddess of the sun, and Melkor is afraid of Arian, and he dare not even look directly into her bright eyes. With the help of Mimos, his power will be far more powerful and terrifying than what is known now.

However, there is no if in history. At that time, the sun and the moon had not yet risen, and Melkor had not yet experienced the threat to him from the glory of the sun and the moon. It was too late when he was shocked by this, and Romimos had already died. No matter how much she trusted Melko, she never showed her hole card in front of Melko or Sauron.

Even so, when Romimos proposed to return to Middle-earth with Melkor, Melkor thought for a while and agreed.

On the one hand, Romimos found him so easily this time, which made Melko realize that Romimos knew him far better than he thought, and leaving her here with Vera was also a hidden danger; On the other hand, even if Romemos looks useless, there is no loss in taking it back anyway. It would be good to make Vera feel disgusted. At worst, take it back and throw it aside. Anyway, Maier is easy to raise, no need to feed No hair smoothing, no watering, no insect removal...

"Cough!" Glorfindel coughed sternly.

"...Well, the last sentence was made up by me, so you don't need to write it down."

Aragorn resigned himself to crossing out the long list he had just written, and then raised his head to continue listening to the class, but Antonia looked out the window and said nothing.

Aragorn also turned his head to look, only to realize that it was completely dark outside the window before he knew it, and only the last ray of light remained in the western sky, while the lights in the distance gradually lit up.

"That's all for today, Your Highness," said Antonia.

"It's so late." Aragorn sighed, and smiled again, "You have spoken very well today, Miss Antonia, and I have also heard a lot about Romemo from the library and other scholars. Si, but they don't know as much and detailed as you."

"Thank you, Your Highness. I only know a little bit about that period of history because there are a lot of rumors about it in the family books."

"You're just kidding," Aragorn laughed. "If you really only have the level you claim, you wouldn't even listen to Lord Glorfindel so attentively."

"Indeed, Miss Antonia, you don't have to be so humble at all. Even I dare not say that I am more familiar with that period of history than you." Glorfindel stood up, his eyes were bright and gentle, if this was in At the palace banquet, Antonia would not be surprised if a dozen ladies and ladies fainted screaming for him.In fact, even Antonia herself was sweating a little from the nervousness.

"So I thought, if you don't mind, I hope I can continue to listen to your lectures next time."

She knew it.
