[The Silmarillion] Romimus

So, do you want to go out?Romimos was caught in a dilemma, and of course she didn't want to just beg Vera for mercy, but Eonwe didn't look like he was trying to scare them.

When hesitating, Romemos subconsciously glanced at Sauron again. Sauron had calmed down a lot after experiencing the initial shock, but Eonwe's voice outside made his face look ugly, obviously Also a little undecided.Melkor was captured by the Valar, and Angband's power was running out. He was alone now. Even Sauron was helpless for a while, and could only stare at Romimos.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Romemos was the first to break the suffocating silence.

"What do you think?" she whispered. "Are we going out?"

Sauron's lips trembled, his eyes were dull and tired, and he said nothing, but Romimos looked into his eyes and was surprised to see that he was shaken!

Just as he testified, Romimoth thought that if anyone could be completely loyal to Melkor, even if he was imprisoned in the prison of Mandos and tortured until the end of Arda, he would not repent, that person must be Sauron up!As a result, this person decided to turn against him less than half a day after Melkor's downfall?

"Let's put aside the future, we have to get rid of Eonwe first." After a pause, Romimos said, "Whether it is true or false, we can only surrender first, and we will see you later. Let's do it."

Sauron did not refute. In fact, this is indeed the only choice they can make now. Even if he loses his mind, Sauron does not have the IQ to go offline to the point where he wants to confront Ionwe head-on.

At first, Eonwe was unable to wait for the reaction of the two people, and his mood became more and more heavy, but after a long silence, the figures of the two people slowly appeared from the depths of the darkness. Because of the embarrassment, Sauron's situation was even worse. The original gorgeous robes were already in tatters and almost lost their original color because they were covered with mud and blood. To look a lot more decent.The two supported each other, walked to Eonwe with low eyebrows, bent down deeply, and couldn't get up for a long time.

Eonwe sighed: "Okay, come back with me."

Sauron and Romemos remained silent, bowed their heads like two docile lambs, and silently followed Ionwe back to the camp of the Aman army.

Eonway prepared water and a change of clothes for them, and even a separate tent, which was much better than what Romimos expected. She thought that Eonway would tie them up and punish them severely. Watching, just like Melkor, but maybe Valar felt that as long as Melkor was caught, his men should naturally surrender and submit. Eonwe didn't even ask them to stay in the tent and not go out, as if They made up their minds that they could not escape, but indeed, as soon as Romemos and Sauron entered the camp, almost all the Maia and elves who were patrolling and standing guard looked at him with vigilance and vigilance. For them, in this case, staying in the tent is the safest way to avoid being watched by others.

Romemos looked around calmly, but when he raised his head, he found that Eonwe hadn't left, but had followed her in.

"Is there any other order from Lord Ionwe?" Romimos asked in a soft voice.

Eonwe looked at her with a complicated expression: "You and I are both Mai Ya, there is no distinction between high and low, you don't need to call me that."

Romemos's complexion was as snowy, and he covered his lips with a wry smile and said, "My lord, I am ashamed of what you said, you are the herald of the god king, and the most loyal one under Vera, how can it be that I am such an evil-minded eternity?" Sinners can be compared?"

"You don't have to belittle yourself so far." Eonwe frowned, "You did do many things wrong in the past, but they were also bewitched by Morgoth. Now it's not too late to make amends."

Romimos lowered his head, the fingers of both hands were tightly twisted together, and the knuckles were all white: "Yes, it was my fault before. Morgoth told me that Middle-earth was free and unruly, and I actually I really believed it, and I didn’t find out that he lied to me until I came here with him, but one wrong step, one wrong step, I... I didn’t do it all on purpose.”

Eonway looked at her pitifully, sighed, and slowed down his tone: "I will report your situation to Vera. You have also suffered these years."

Romimos shook his head and whispered, "It's all my own stupidity, no one else's fault."

"It's great if you can figure it out." Eonway breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Romemos with great satisfaction, "I know you are tired now, but sorry, you can't rest for the time being, someone wants to see you .”

Um?To be the first to take her under the knife?Romemos's heart sank. She thought that Eonwe was going to detain her to see Vera, but it was enough for them to have a headache without talking about Melkor. Even if Vera still had the energy to interrogate others, Romemos would still He thought that at least Sauron could stand in front of him.

Even though more than 800 thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant, Romemos remained calm on the surface. Thanks to Melkor, she is now more and more able to stand still when Mount Tai collapses in front of her, weak and obedient He nodded to Eonway, and said softly: "Yes, I understand, then I will find you after I tidy up a little."

"No, I'm fine now." Eonway said, "I'll wait for you outside."

After Romimos washed and changed his clothes, he walked out of the tent. Eonwe was waiting outside as he said, and when he saw her coming out, he nodded slightly: "Follow me."

Romimos followed behind him silently, thinking about how to deal with the Valar later, but Eonwe took her straight to... Thorondor.

...Could it be this silly bird who wanted to trouble her?To be reasonable, she is the one who suffers every time she confronts Sorondor, okay?

"I'm sorry, Sorondo." Eonway nodded politely to Sorondo.

And Thorondo gave Romemos a look from the corner of his eye, yes, it gave Romemus a look like a bird, then bowed his head reluctantly, and Eonwe leaped on its back with agility, Then he pulled Romemus up too.Thorondo fluttered his wings and flew into the air before Romemos could stand still. If Eonwe hadn't let go, he might have thrown her off.Romemos felt that this silly bird did it on purpose.

At first Romimos couldn't figure out where Eonwe was taking her, but as Thorondor flew higher and higher, she faintly saw a white ship shaped like a swan emerging from the clouds like the moon. It was a beautiful ship, but Romimos just wanted to say "Holyshit" silently in his heart.

She would rather see Vera than come here!

The master of the ship stared at her somberly that Romemos could almost hear his teeth clenching.

"Then you talk first," Eonwe said to Elendil, "I'll be back in an hour."

"Excuse me." Romemos nodded respectfully to Eonwe, watched him leave and then turned to look at Elendil, and said with a complicated expression, "I haven't seen you for many years, Elendil, you grew up gone."

Elendil's face was as cold as ice: "Then thank you for your mercy back then."

"I'm sorry about Gondolin..." After hesitating for a while, Romimos tentatively whispered, but was interrupted as expected.

"Do you think I will still believe your words?!" Elendil glared at her, "Your apology is like your soul, the hypocrisy is disgusting!"

"I'm really sorry," Romimos opened his mouth, but he could only repeat palely and feebly, "but I have no other choice, Morgoth..."

Elendil sneered: "Mogoth forced you to make all the mistakes? As soon as your master fell, you couldn't wait to find a scapegoat for yourself? Yes, Morgoth has done so many unreasonable things, It's not much more than that, and what excuse is less labor-intensive than pushing everything on his head?"

"..." Romimos fell silent.

"You can't find words to justify yourself now? Where is your ability to talk nonsense without changing your face?" Elendil was aggressive.

In fact, Elendil is no longer a child. After experiencing so much, it is difficult for him to have such a big emotional fluctuation due to ordinary things, but how could he calm down when facing Romimos? Woolen cloth? !Who would have thought in the past that the sweet smile that eclipsed all the jade and pearls in the world turned out to be a poisonous blade?Now who knows if there is a hungry wolf grinding its teeth under the skin of this docile lamb?Even though the other party now put on an appearance of sincerely admitting his mistakes and repenting, instead of feeling sympathetic like Eonwe, Elendil became more vigilant.

Romemos sighed: "What else do you want me to say? My apology sounds like hypocrisy to you, and my justification sounds like an excuse to excuse yourself. In this way, when you meet me this time It's just to vent your anger, it's useless for me to say anything, since that's the case—"

Romimos rolled up his long hair, and unbuttoned the top two buttons of his clothes, completely exposing his slender neck: "——then treat him in the same way. I strangled you to death, now you want to fight back?"

Elendil froze in place.

"Come on, now that Eonwe is not here, no one can stop you. Even if I regret it, I will not be your opponent." Romimos took a step forward, but Elendil hid back again and again, as if the other party was Like a snake and a scorpion, "What's more, this is what I did on my own."

"I...I didn't want to kill you..." Elendil said with difficulty.

"Why not?" Romimos fluttered his long eyelashes. "Don't you want to avenge Gondolin?"

"Sooner or later, you will pay for your crimes! But if I don't do it, you will get a fair trial from the Valla."

Romimos laughed, and Elendil's hair stood on end.

"But you know that the Valar won't sentence me to death? What kind of sentence will I get? Locked up for thousands of years? Tens of thousands of years? Maybe it won't even be that long if I've acted sincerely, and then wait until On the day my sentence is over, all my crimes will be written off." Romimoth's voice was low and clear, "But Valar's sentence is one thing, what do you think in your heart? Gondolin It was completely destroyed in my hands. Countless members of your tribe died indirectly because of me, or it is not too much to say that they were killed by me. Don't you think it is not too much for such a heinous person to be smashed into pieces? But I Do you think that Vera's trial is fair? You really don't want to cut off my neck and pay homage to the souls of Gondolin's dead with blood and blood? Imagine the taste of revenge with your own hands. Even just once, her sweetness is enough to immerse you in it for the rest of your life."

"...If I could kill you, I would do it without hesitation, but I'm not as shameless as you. People like you don't deserve my dirty hands at all." Elendil gritted his teeth, "You also Don't think about dragging me down to become a bloodthirsty devil like you."

"Only you know what you think in the depths of your heart." Romemos smiled, and calmly found a chair to sit down, "Why should you suppress yourself like this? Blood debts can only be paid in blood, and you are The great hero among the elves, and I am a sinner through the ages, even if you kill me Vera in an 'impulse mistake', you won't blame you too much. Well, I'm here, until Ionwe comes back, you can change at any time idea."

About an hour later, Eonwe came back on time: "How is the situation? Are you all okay?"

Romemos smiled wryly, and stood up: "It's hard to unravel all the past grievances in a short while, but anyway, I do owe Elendil an apology, thanks to you this time, forget it I have a problem on my mind. As for what will happen in the future, I can only try my best to make up for it, and I don't ask for forgiveness..."

"Don't think too much about it." Eonwe comforted her, "As long as you sincerely repent, your performance will be visible to Vera and us."

Romimos nodded gratefully, and Eonwe turned to look at Elendil who had been standing silently by the side: "Then I will take her away."

Elendil didn't respond at all.

Eonwe frowned, and said to Romemos: "You go out to find Sorondor first, and I will come later."

Romimos nodded obediently, took a deep look at Elendil without any trace, and left.

"What's wrong?" Eonwe asked after Romemos walked out.

"You'd better keep an eye on her." Elendil squeezed out the words, "That's a madman."

"Is there something wrong?" Eonwe said with a serious expression, "What did Romimos tell you?"

Elendil was silent for a moment: "She tried to tempt me to kill her to avenge Gondolin."

Eonwe was stunned for a long time.

"I thought something happened... She was just too guilty and didn't know how to make up for you. This shows that she really wants to repent." Eonway said, with a slightly serious expression, "You don't really want to kill her, do you? ?”

"Of course not, how could I do that?"

But Eonway gave him a suspicious look, shook his head and walked out: "I should have known that I shouldn't have left her and you alone with you."
