[Comprehensive English and American] Ripples in time and space

Rivendell should have been a picturesque place with spring all year round.There should have been red flowers, green trees and gurgling water here.However, as far as the eye can see, there is only a piece of gunpowder smoke, ruins and corpses.

Relying entirely on the danger of the terrain, the elf troops led by Elrond and Glorfindel defended the place surrounded by an army of half-orcs that was more than ten times, or even dozens of times more than them.Rivendell faces the steep Misty Mountains, and the entrance is also a dangerous canyon. To reach the mouth of the valley, you have to pass through many forests and swamps.After temporarily defending the valley entrance with crude fortifications, there is no second way to reach this valley surrounded by mountains.Even the fallen monsters of the enemy would have a hard time passing through the guards of the giant eagle and flying over the misty mountains to reach this place.

It is very possible that Kelly is the first person in history to complete the feat of "cutting the back road into Rivendell", but she has no leisure to think about it at the moment.She kept using magic to replenish her and Celebrimbor's strength along the way, but magic was just magic after all, it could support the human body to continue to function, but it couldn't completely replace drinking water.

By the time dawn broke, Kelly had been supported by magic alone for nearly twenty hours.Celebrimbor was unconscious when she glimpsed Rivendell below through the mist.Kelly stopped on the edge of Rivendell: It has come to this point, if it is shot to death as a monster, it will be wronged.She took out a pen and paper, hurriedly wrote two lines, then picked up a piece of gravel, and the stone turned into a white dove in her hands. Kelly tied the note to its leg and let it go to the valley. It flew inside.There was only one sentence written on the note: "After rescuing Celebrimbor, I will enter the valley from the direction of the Misty Mountains. I hope no harm will be done. Please reply if you receive it."

She sat where she was, resting while casting a few more healing spells on Celebrimbor.The pigeon came back soon, with neat white paper and clean and beautiful handwriting tied to its legs, but it could be seen that the hands of the writer might be trembling with excitement: "Received, I will wait for you after the valley, thank you."

It seems that even the letter writer chose the shortest and best wording because he couldn't wait.Kelly smiled slightly, took Celebrimbor on her back, and flew up again.She canceled the invisibility spell a long time ago, and soon, when she escaped from the mist and approached the valley, the elves standing below also found her, and they all screamed and cheered.As soon as Kelly landed, she was immediately surrounded by a group of elves.She knew only one of them: he looked younger now, but she could still tell that he was Elrond, the future lord of Rivendell.

Elrond scarcely waited for her to regain her feet, but at once Elrond and the other Elf stretched out their arms to catch Celebrimbor, and laid him flat on the stretcher beside him.As his posture changed, his black hair fell back, revealing the scars all over his face, and there was another exclamation.Kelly said: "Don't worry, I treated him on the way, and his life should not be in danger now."

Elrond gestured to the two elves to carry the stretcher away first, and then bowed to her: "I and all the elves in Rivendell extend our highest thanks to you. Please forgive me for being rude, but..."

"I know, the injury is serious." Kelly nodded. Elrond was interrupted by her, but seemed to be relieved to save the time to say the next sentence or two, and immediately turned around and ran away with the stretcher.Among the remaining elves, an elf with beautiful blond hair like sunshine led the other elves, and once again touched her chest and bowed to her: "Although I don't know how you rescued His Royal Highness Celebrimbor from the Dark Lord, but promise The multi-ethnic community will be forever grateful for that."

Kelly returned a salute: "Do as you please, you're welcome."

"Not yet introduced, I am Glorfindel." The blond elf straightened up and continued, "Please forgive me for being so rude to my benefactor, but during the war, the situation is special-you were once a subordinate of the dark lord Sauron ?"

Kelly unconsciously reached out and stroked the black lines on the side of her face: "Ah, no. I'm just... a human magician. As for why I have the power of darkness, and why did I save your Caleb?" Your Highness Lipeng, this is a very complicated story, and I want to tell it as few times as possible. If you don’t mind, I will tell you in detail when Celebrimbor is in better condition and all the important people here are gathered.”

Glorfindel hesitated, nodded, and stepped aside to get out of the way: "Okay, then, this way first."

At this time, Rivendell did not have the beautiful and exquisite buildings that appeared in the movie. The most seen along the way were military tents, and the temporary houses built with wood and stone were considered preferential treatment.Kelly was assigned to such a temporary house. She used a spell to clean the stains on her body and clothes, ate half of the elf dry food "Lambas", and then fell asleep.

Normally, she only needs a few hours of sleep a day, but because of the huge physical exertion, Kelly slept until the afternoon before waking up.She opened the door and went out. The bell on the outside doorknob jingled, and Glorfindel came out of the next room almost immediately.

He was an elf who died in the previous war and was resurrected in the Temple of Mandos. In terms of combat effectiveness, he should be regarded as the best in Rivendell.The fact that he personally guarded Kelly shows that their vigilance is not low, and it may also show that the current situation is indeed very urgent.Kelly nodded to him and smiled. "Can I go see Celebrimbor?"

Glorfindel led her into a row of houses next to her—this row of stone houses is relatively the most beautiful and intact in the valley. Kylie thought it was the headquarters, but unexpectedly it was the medical room. Think again I also feel that this setting is quite natural.Glorfindel led her to a corner by the window, Kelly could see a figure lying on the bed from a distance.

Even she couldn't help taking a breath, and stopped in her tracks.

Earlier, she saw Celebrimbor in a dark prison with almost no light. Later, the two fled all the way. Most of the time was also in the dark area where Sauron's magic shrouded the sky. In addition, Celebrimbor's body was covered by the cloak. Covered, Kelly didn't really see his appearance properly, and now she finally saw his face and most of his naked/naked body under the light, she really saw what kind of tragedy it was: from the cheeks to the body, almost no skin , New wounds piled up with old wounds, some scars even she couldn't identify what caused them.Most of the wounds are also haunted by dark forces that prevent healing, making them even more terrifying visually.

Later generations have long invented torture methods that are more effective than physical abuse, such as small dark rooms, strong light, noise, sleep deprivation, hallucinogens, etc., so Kelly has never seen such torture methods no matter which world she was in before. the tragedy.However, with her composure, she only paused for a moment before continuing to walk.Elrond rose from the bed to meet them, and Glorfindel asked, "How is it?"

Elrond shook his head worriedly: "We have treated all the wounds. But there are too many wounds on his body, and the pollution of Sauron's dark power hinders the recovery of the injuries." He turned his eyes to Kelly, "Come on. On the way, did you help him heal?"

"Please don't use the honorific title, just call me Kelly. Otherwise, I will use the honorific title for you." Kelly said, "Yes, I know some healing magic, and I treated him along the way before—only at that time The situation is urgent, and it is too late to remove the dark power in his body. The wound on the shoulder was healed by me, I guess, and now they are cracked again, isn't it?"

Elrond nodded sternly, stepped aside, and Kelly walked to the bed, and saw festering wounds on Celebrimbor's shoulders again. Although they hadn't penetrated the shoulders yet, Sauron's spell seemed to have some effect. A force that hinders the recovery of injuries.Elrond asked: "Can you undo the dark spell in him?"

"You can try it, I'm [-]% sure." Kelly tapped the bed with her knuckles as she said, "Hey, are you still alive?" She asked with a smile.A young elven healer nearby gave her a displeased look, but Celebrimbor chuckled hoarsely.Kelly stretched out her hand to touch the rare and intact piece of skin on his shoulder, and cast a pain-relieving spell, looking back at Elrond: "But Sauron's spell is very complicated. I just detected it briefly before, and I need to analyze it and solve it. , I’m afraid it will take a long time. Do you have any better way?”

"How long?" Glorfindel asked.

"Conservative calculation, a week." Kelly said.

"So fast?" Elrond asked in surprise.Kelly was startled, and then laughed dumbly: She forgot that elves are an immortal race. The elves in this room are probably hundreds or thousands of years old, and their concept of time is naturally different from that of humans. .For them, a week is about the blink of an eye.She nodded: "If you can accept it, it's no problem—but I guess, before you accept it, shouldn't I explain my background?"

Right now the important leaders of Rivendell are basically gathered - Elrond, Glorfindel, Eristor who is also next to him, and Celebrimbor who has just been rescued.After all, looking for a way to heal the soul, Kelly's explanation this time is more detailed than any other world except Steve and Bucky.

She couldn't talk about space travel and experiments, so she excused that traveling through different universes was her own special ability.Other than that, she didn't say anything false, and she mentioned to them the magical abilities she had learned in the three worlds, especially what Aslan told her about the soul price that would be required to touch the magic laws.Then she said that in order to save her relatives and friends and avoid a major disaster, she had to sacrifice her soul in exchange for magical power to stop the big bang, but before the sacrifice was completed, her ability to travel through the universe was suddenly activated, so She entered this world with a mutilated and polluted soul, and happened to land in the place where Celebrimbor was imprisoned, so she rescued him and escaped together.

The others listened intently to her narration, except that Kelly spent a lot of time persuading them to accept the existence of multiple universes, and they did not interrupt for the rest of the time.Kelly finished telling everything, and finally asked: "...So, I also want to ask, is there any way to heal the wound of the soul?"
