[The Lord of the Rings The Hobbit] Ruby

It was late at night, and all the people attending the banquet dispersed to rest. Ellena sent her friends to their respective rooms to rest, and then returned to the bedroom alone. Although she felt very tired, she did not feel sleepy at all.

Can't sleep, just take a bath.Elena thought while stretching.

The moonlight tonight is very good, and the hazy silver light flows out from the marble pillars, casting a swirling light and shadow on the floor of the room, bright but not dazzling.

Ellena took off her cloak and hung it on the coat hook, kicked off her boots, rolled her legs impatiently and freed her legs from the tight pants, and then stepped barefoot on the cool floor to relax greatly. tone.While these clothes are handy for going out, she still prefers a looser fit.Everyone was already asleep, Ellena unbuttoned her shirt at ease, threw it on the ground, and immersed herself in the bathtub naked, her long loose hair floated on the water like seaweed, covering the dream landscape.Ellena squinted her eyes contentedly, leaning against the edge of the bathtub to admire the moonlight while humming a little tune.

For her who is slightly clean, not taking a bath for a long time is really torture. At first, it was inconvenient during the trip, but later it was convenient for her to get injured and her wounds could not be covered with water. Ellena felt that if she was not an elf, she would definitely stink.

Wrapped in warm water, drowsiness soon subsided, Ellena covered her mouth and yawned, stood up from the water, picked up a clean cloth towel next to her to wipe her body and hair, her elegance and smoothness were reflected in the water The curves of his body and the two crossed and sinuous scars on his shoulders.

Legolas, who also couldn't sleep and came to chat with Ellena, saw this scene. The girl who had just bathed unsuspectingly exposed her body in front of his eyes, full of ignorant and naive temptations.

He stayed for a few seconds, blushed, turned around and knocked on the door.

"Who?" Ellena wrapped the cloth scarf around her chest vigilantly. She was too relaxed to hear footsteps just now. In the middle of the night, the knock on the door seemed very frightening. She quietly picked it up and put it aside. dagger.

After a while, a faint voice came: "It's me."

Ellena breathed a sigh of relief, she recognized the voice of Legolas, and she really thought too much, how could there be enemies in Rivendell. "Wait for me." Ellena hurriedly put on a long black dress, and trotted to open the door for Legolas.

The elf outside the door stood sideways with her arms folded, and saw a suspicious red on her face, but her tone was normal: "I knew you weren't asleep yet."

"Aren't you too, can't you sleep?" Elina stood beside him, a strand of damp hair inadvertently brushed against the back of Legolas' hand, which immediately brought back memories of Legolas .

"Legolas? Legolas?" Ellena waved her hand in front of Legolas, frowning and calling out to the elf in front of her who was inexplicably immersed in her own thoughts.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I just thought of something." Legolas came back to his senses and smiled apologetically. It would be a pity to just use it for sleeping. I saw many elves singing by the river, if you are not sleepy, can you take me to have a look?"

Naturally, Ellena would not refuse to agree to such a trivial matter, and she naturally walked side by side with Legolas to the river.

The night in May is still very cool, and from time to time there is a gentle wind blowing across the cheeks, and the singing of the elves not far away is transmitted:

Happy people, let's sing, let's sing together!

The wind blows through the treetops, across the heath-grown savages;

The stars bloom, the moon falls on the flowers,

The windows of the Tower of Night are extremely bright.

Happy people jump up, let's dance together!

The grass is soft and makes the feet dance as light as feathers!

The river is silvery and the shadows are flying;

Good times in May, what a happy party we have!

……

They strolled along the small river and didn't join those happy elves. Although they didn't want to sleep yet, the two wanted to stay quietly for a while. Since they met, they had never been alone in such a peaceful and peaceful way, like those elves It was a rare good time indeed, as we sang.

"Can you sing?" Ellena asked, "I don't know why, but it's hard for me to make up a beautiful song like my tribe. I guess you can sing very well, but you haven't I heard you sing."

"My people think that I sing well, but I don't often sing in front of many people, because there are too many people who can sing better than me." Legolas said a little embarrassed.

Elena giggled after hearing this, and she took Legolas' arm and leaned into his ear and said, "So, now can you sing it to me alone?"

Legolas' body stiffened for a few seconds and then relaxed. He could feel the soft and slender hand holding his sleeve, and the faint fragrance from the side, all of which made him feel a kind of Confused and excited like never before, he involuntarily sang:

Like the fragrance of flowers blowing in the wind

Limited happy hour flickers by candlelight

The brook gurgling flows in the western land

Varda sprinkled the silvery white light on the night sky

A pure smile blooms on the lips

The stars are also trembling for her beauty

Good times are like sweet mead

Who can fill my cup again

Brightest Tientani in the sky

Varda, queen of the sublime stars

how can i express my thanks to you

Let the lovely rose bloom before my eyes

Ellena was fascinated by the song, as if flowing water wrapped her up and sent her into an unknown world full of expectations.

So, after Legolas finished singing, he found that Elena had fallen asleep leaning against him, her breathing was steady and slow, her eyebrows were stretched, as if she was having a sweet dream.He stared blankly, a gentle smile blooming on his lips.

A week later, Bilbo, Gandalf, and Legolas left Rivendell. They would travel to Bree, and then Legolas would continue north to the legendary Dundan tribe and the ruins of the Northern Kingdom. , in the days of Rivendell, he heard a lot of stories about Númenor, and was full of curiosity about this human tribe with elf blood. When Elrond told him about the existence of the Dundan tribe, he couldn't wait. I really wanted to see it, and even fantasized about seeing the legendary descendants of the royal family.

Elena was speechless when she knew what he was thinking. It was a secret that only Elrond knew that the royal family of Númenor still had a trace of blood. Dale's human child, Legolas's trip will certainly not be able to achieve all his expectations, but this is obviously not the right time to tell Legolas the identity of Aragorn, even if you believe Legolas, but for the last hope , Ellena would never dare to be careless.

Out of concern about Legolas traveling alone, Ellena gave him her sword when seeing him off: "I think this can help you in close combat, and it can also serve as a warning .”

"It can indeed help me, but what about you?" Legolas hesitated. He already knew that this is a sharp long sword that is not inferior to the beast-biting sword and the enemy's fencing sword in the past. Erlina's plan really moved him, but he had to consider the donor's own safety.

Ellena said very naturally: "Oh, dear Legolas, this is my sword, even if it will be by your side for a while, it still belongs to me after all." Blinking playfully, he added: "This adventure has exhausted me too much energy. I just want to go to Lorien to rest for a while, and I don't want to go anywhere else. It, I mean this sword , obviously you need it more."

"Alright then," Legolas raised his eyebrows, put the sword on his waist, and changed the subject, "You don't seem to have done that very important thing, since you said you would need my help, And you doubt whether I can come back safely, can you tell me now."

You said it yourself, Ellena thought.She looked around, but no one noticed, and whispered, "Then close your eyes."

Legolas raised his eyebrows, closed his eyes obediently, his long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and then he felt something as soft as a feather gently touch his cheek, he was a little puzzled Opening her eyes quickly, before Ellena could leave completely, her lips stayed within an inch of his face, looking at the blush on her face that hadn't faded, he seemed to understand something.

Elena stood up straight as if nothing happened, showing an elegant smile: "I have completed this very important matter, thank you very much for your help, I wish you the best of luck, Legolas Your Highness."

Legolas smiled charmingly, "It's my honor, mylady."

His Royal Highness left happily, leaving the depressed Elena behind. She touched her smooth lips in annoyance. She wanted to do something that would offend him even more. However, she had no guts and could only wait for the next opportunity. Tried again.
