Middle-earth Raiders Full Plan

I'm Bilbo Baggins.

In the year 2958 of the Third Age of Middle-earth, I embarked on the first long-distance adventure of my life, but it will not be the last, with Gandalf the Gray Wizard and a dozen dwarves with different personalities but equally stubborn.

There is no doubt that this will be a trip that will change my life, but this trip was not pleasant at the beginning. Not only was it full of dangers - I was almost roasted by a troll, and I was chased and fled by orcs and wargs for a long time. And I couldn't find the sense of accomplishment I imagined, I could only feel endless exhaustion and loneliness.It didn't take me long to adjust to the cold, wet conditions and the absence of a handkerchief, but it took me a long time to feel fully accepted by the dwarves - especially Thorin.

I honestly regretted it and started to doubt myself.I'm just a hobbit, and adventure probably isn't for me, and that feeling reaches its zenith in Rivendell.

Rivendell is the domain of the elf lord Elrond. It is known as "the last sanctuary of elves east of the sea". A river valley, I fell in love with it almost instantly.

Of course, Sorin didn't think so. I also knew a little bit about the grievances between him and the elves. In short, his face was as long as it wanted.

When we came to Rivendell, an elf named Lindyr received us. Lord Elrond happened to be away, but he came back after a while, dressed in military uniform, riding on a tall black horse , hair color like ink, eyes like stars, high-spirited and extraordinary.

"Gandalf." He greeted Gandalf with a kind face.

"Lord Elrond." Gandalf also smiled and nodded to Elrond, and then he took advantage of the situation to look behind Lord Elrond, and couldn't help being slightly taken aback, "Velodys?"

"Gandalf." The woman called Velodis smiled lightly, "We meet again."

"I didn't expect you to go back to Rivendell." Gandalf shook his head. "Where's Estelle? Why didn't I see him?"

"He didn't come back with me," Velodis replied.Her eyes that seemed to be full of meaning swept across us one by one. I don't know if it was an illusion, but I felt that those eyes seemed to stay on Sorin and me for a while longer.

To be honest, among so many people, Velodis is by no means the most conspicuous one. She is a human woman who looks about 20 years old. She is not tall and strong enough, and her appearance is not exquisite and beautiful. Not so prominent among the elves, especially when she was still standing behind Elrond.

But once you have met those green eyes that seem to have read the world, you will never forget her again.

When her gaze met mine, I couldn't help but shudder, and instantly felt a sense of being seen through.

I know where you are going, I seem to read this meaning from her eyes.I know what you are going to do, I know the purpose of your coming to Rivendell, I know your past, I understand your troubles, I know your future...

I'm afraid few people will like this kind of naked feeling, although you can really feel that she is not malicious.I heard Thorin beside me grunt unhappily, and unconsciously put his hand on the handle of the knife again.

However, the time to accept the extremely penetrating eye inspection was actually only a few seconds. After a few seconds, Velodis withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyelashes, and listened quietly to Thorin and Lord Elrond. Their conversation became unremarkable again.

The feeling just now seemed to be just an illusion caused by our guilty conscience.

I had a very comfortable two weeks in Rivendell, and I miss my warm, dry Bag End all the more, especially after months of camping and eating.

But I didn't eat and drink all the time (Rivendell's fancy food tastes like nothing to a hobbit) or sleep under a blanket.Since I was a child, I have been very interested in elves. This time I was fortunate enough to come to Rivendell. I just want to explore this mysterious land with a history of thousands of years without sleep.

Wandering aimlessly in Rivendell, before I knew it, I came to a corridor.

For some reason, as soon as I stepped into this corridor, the surrounding atmosphere seemed to change in an instant. A sense of solemnity and solemnity came over my face. The golden sunlight slanted in in the autumn afternoon, and the leisurely singing of the elves seemed to be isolated in a very distant place. far away.

I couldn't help breathing a lot, and walked in quite cautiously.

The first thing I entered was a human-shaped stone platform. On the stone platform was a piece of cloth, and on it was a long sword that was broken into several pieces.

There should be an extraordinary story about this sword, I thought, but I couldn't think of it at the moment.

"That's a fragment of Nasir's holy sword." Suddenly a voice said.

Startled, I opened my eyes wide and looked in the direction of the voice.

It was the human woman Velodis, she was sitting in an unobtrusive corner looking at me, holding a book in her hand, beside her was a human boy with black hair and figure of twelve or thirteen years old A similar young elf, also looking at me, his eyes are as clear as the deep blue night sky on a clear summer day.

"You are...Miss Velodis?" I only heard Gandalf call her name once, but I'm not sure if I pronounced her right, but in Elven language, "Velodys" means the future .

Fortunately, I seem to be calling correctly, Velodis nodded, and introduced the elf boy beside her to me: "This is Karnold."

"Hello," I greeted the elf primly. "I'm Bilbo Baggins."

Kanod just smiled and nodded at me politely, but didn't speak.

The atmosphere was a little cold, and I awkwardly shifted my gaze to the mural opposite the broken sword.

The mural depicts a tall black figure in armor. He stretched out his hand and grabbed a human on the ground. A golden ring on his hand was particularly eye-catching. The human was half lying on the ground, still holding a The broken sword swung at him.

"I seem to have heard of this story." I couldn't help muttering to myself, "Is this... the Battle of the Last Alliance?" Suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I looked at the two excitedly.

"Yes." Velodis nodded approvingly, "In 3441 of the second era, Gilgalad, the high king of the Noldor, and Elendil, the founding emperor of Gondor, formed the final alliance to fight Sauron together. Unfortunately, they all fell, but Sauron did not win—”

"Elendil's son Isildur picked up his father's broken sword and defeated Sauron, thus opening the third era." I continued, "Ah, yes, this is the history! I almost forgot!"

"History will become legends, and legends will become myths. Everything in the past has been lost, and those who remember it have long since passed away." In a peaceful atmosphere, Velodis's voice was like a gentle sigh, and the singing of an elf, ethereal and ethereal, Long and long, "There are not many people who still remember this history. You are amazing, Bilbo Baggins."

"Ah, I happen to be a little interested in history, and I have studied it a bit." I was a little proud, and looked at the broken sword again, "So it was this sword that cut off Sauron's finger, Bahrain—that's us. The oldest dwarf—told me that swords are famous for their exploits in battle, and that this is a great sword, not like my... letter opener."

As if a pot of cold water was poured on my head, the excitement and complacency I had just now disappeared in an instant, and I felt like a fool.

No matter how great these deeds are, they have nothing to do with me. I am just an ordinary hobbit, while the two in front of me are well-informed and highly skilled human rangers, and the wise and well-read Elf, I'm showing off in front of them.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been depressed for too long because I’m not recognized by the dwarves. In fact, I’m not so easy to feel inferior, but at that time I was really depressed and ashamed. I felt that those two people were not necessarily laughing at me And me.

"Not necessarily, Mr. Baggins," said Velodis, "perhaps, when you return home from your journey, you will be proud to bear a proud name for your sword."

"Me? Oh, no, no, no." I was taken aback, then shook my head again and again, "You may not know us hobbits very well, Miss Velodis. I have never traveled far before, and I am not good at fighting with any weapons. , in fact, I may have made a mistake starting this journey, and I probably shouldn't have been here at all."

"You are too modest, Mr. Baggins." Velodis closed the book and walked from the shadows to the sunlight, "You are smart and familiar with the history of Middle-earth. I think you must have read a lot of books; Moreover, if it is really your first time to travel far, then obviously you also have extraordinary courage. After all, I think, this must not be a trip like traveling in mountains and rivers, right?"

I think I must have looked funny, because no one has ever said that to me.

"You are much better than you think, Mr. Baggins." Velodis looked at me, the corners of his eyes and brows slightly curved, "although you may have never realized it before."

It's amazing, only the corners of the lips curved a tiny arc, and I suddenly felt that the distance between myself and Velodis was suddenly shortened.

The otherworldly, otherworldly feeling about her like an elf disappeared all of a sudden. However, this did not make her ordinary and ugly. On the contrary, I think this kind of Velodis is even more beautiful than before. She is much cuter when she is cold and dusty.

She is no longer high above, looking down on everything, replaced by a kind of intimacy like a relative and an old friend. The sun shines on her face, and you can't tell whether it is the sun lighting up her smile or the warmth of the sun. Her smile warms the sun even more.

It is a very contagious smile that makes people feel happy when they see it. It is a smile that can only be shown by someone who is extremely gentle, kind, and always looks at the world with hope.

My eyes inadvertently glanced at Kanod who was behind Velodis, and unexpectedly but reasonably found that he was looking at Velodis with a cold face, showing a slight but gentle smile.

The haze that had been in my heart for a long time was suddenly swept away, and I couldn't help laughing, it felt very comfortable, like taking a hot bath in winter, maybe it was because of the affirmation, or simply because That sweet smile of Velodis, but who cares?

"I hope I didn't disturb you." The gentle voice of Lord Elrond suddenly sounded, I turned to look at him, and found that he also had a warm smile on his face, "It seems that you are very concerned about the life in Rivendell. Satisfied, Mr Baggins?"

"Oh, it couldn't be better," I replied, "it's so beautiful here, and your hospitality is very good."

"I have heard hobbits are resilient," said Lord Elrond.

"Really?" I was flattered to be praised one after another today, and suddenly remembered something, "Speaking of which, Lord Elrond, what is the relationship between you and Miss Velodis?"

Lord Elrond and Velodis exchanged glances.

"Velodys is my adopted daughter," explained Lord Elrond.

"Ah, no wonder." I muttered to myself.

"No wonder what does it mean?" Velodis blinked suspiciously, "Do I look like Lord Elrond's daughter? Oh, this is really... unbearable." She stuck out her tongue mischievously.

Lord Elrond and Velodis are indeed very similar in some places. This similarity does not refer to appearance, but temperament.They are not as mundane as common people in the market, but they are not as unpopular as pure elves. Getting along with them makes people feel like a spring breeze.

The feeling of chatting with these two people is also different. Lord Elrond is wise and deep. You will feel that you are talking to an old man full of wisdom. As for Velodis, she is more lively and has more Novel and interesting idea.

I chatted with these two people and the elf Kanod unconsciously for almost the whole afternoon. I was so happy that I didn’t even say anything. I just listened to the adoptive father and daughter express their opinions seriously and sometimes playfully. , I also feel that I have benefited a lot.

Such are my days in Imratri Valley, and I may be lucky enough to return here one day, but for now, I must regain my courage and continue my adventure.
