Nature

[When Anna left Rose Lorien, at Anna's low-key request, only Lady Galadriel and Celeborn saw her off.

She vaguely remembered the clear tears on Lady Galadriel's face, and Celeborn's unbearable expression.

——Anna, a lonely soul from beyond Arda, since you have decided to stay in this world, you should mark this world with your existence.Let the world remember you and sing your name forever.

——"I must come back..."

Lady Galadriel murmured, looking at her.

"I hope the light will accompany you, Kai Mengting."

The cold wind was blowing, and the golden leaves fell. Anna was surprised that it was already winter.

"Best trip." Celeborn nodded to her, "I hope to see you again in a hundred years."

There are dangers, loneliness, and loneliness on the way here.But it's your choice.If you can come back successfully, your name will be passed down forever, become a song, and be sung from generation to generation.

Kneel down on the road you choose, and you have to walk it to the end.

Good-bye, Loth Lorien, good-bye, Lady Galadriel, good-bye, those good and innocent years.

Looking forward to many years later, when I think of these times, I can still smile slightly.

Looking forward to many years later, when I have gone through hardships and looked at the days before, I can still sigh that I was young.

——The lifespan of elves is endless, we are all waiting for you, waiting for your return.

——Eya Anna? Kai Mengting, don't forget, no matter how much darkness and evil there are on the way here, don't forget your original intention.When you come back, we will gather under the Mellon tree again.Then, spend thousands of years. 】

Anna finally completed the trial, it was not easy.

Originally, it was agreed that seven or eight chapters would be over, but it might not be enough, and it might be delayed until ten chapters...

Anna heard a voice in the dark.

It was a gentle female voice, caressing her soul gently like a feather.

She slowly opened her eyes, and what caught her eyes was the roughness of the stone.

Sitting up, she looked up at the magnificence of the Misty Mountains. She looked around and found that she was located on the east side of the Misty Mountains. Looking up, she could see Celebudil, which was covered with snow all the year round.

She stood up and took two steps. Although her whole body was naked, it did not affect her mood. The sun shone on her body, making her warm. Looking at the beautiful Anol, she was full of joy.

Looking at the deep mirror lake, she saw her own reflection. The beautiful face was familiar yet unfamiliar, like an old friend she hadn't seen for a long time. The slightly flat outline and fairer complexion than wheat showed her identity.

She squatted down slowly, looking at the long black hair hanging on the water, staring at the deep eyes, she raised the corners of her mouth.

What a nostalgic body!

She jumped into the water, and as no surprise, she found that she had turned back into a mermaid, raised her head out of the water, and she understood something.

Her trials were finally complete, and she was reborn from the ashes.

She still remembered that in the endless darkness, a ray of light shone on her body. Accompanied by Varda, she walked into the raging fire and fought desperately with the Balrog.

The fire was burning, and they fell to the bottom of the earth. During the struggle, she felt that her whole body was full of strength.

She did not meet Gandalf.

The Balrog fled to the secret passage of Kazadum, and they went up along the winding and extending secret passage, and along the endless stairs to the Tower of Durin on the Silver Tooth Peak.

They fought on the top of the mountain until the Balrog could no longer struggle, roared and closed his eyes.

The flame burned on the evil thing, melting the ice and snow on the top of the mountain, and it burned bigger and bigger.

Facing the raging fire, Anna jumped into it without hesitation.

The darkness came again, but the light was still with her.

——"If you die, you can live again."

She snapped her eyes open.

A white horse walked slowly towards her, and Anna stepped out of the water.

She put on a toga, manipulated the water to simulate a silk-like texture, and used skillful strength to cut out a suitable size and style.

The white horse bowed its head slightly to her, and Anna walked over slowly, gently stroked the white horse's mane, and tied a small package on the horse's back.

Opening the package, she saw two sets of clothes, a long skirt, a travel suit, and a pair of travel boots to match.She changed into a long-sleeved blouse and tight breeches, put on a cape, exposed her face, tied her hair into a crisp ponytail with a ribbon, put on her boots, and got on the horse.

The horses walked slowly across the Mirror Lake, and she looked at the reflection in the lake with satisfaction.

The face that grew old in the sea was replaced by the appearance of a mermaid because of an accidental awakening in the middle of the sea, but that is not entirely her own. The current her is a complete and brand new her.

She thought for a while about where to go, and then decided to go to Lorien first.

There are still two elf lords waiting for her to go back to fulfill the agreement of the year.

Her legs clamped together, and the horse galloped on, leaving her in the shadows of Moria.

These days Lorien has become a place to receive people from Kazad-dum.

Galadriel looked at Gandalf in his clean white robes, and listened to his account of Moria.

"After I fell into the abyss, I came to the rock's deepest foundation, and I chased the monster into the secret passage of Kazadum. However, it is more familiar with those intricate tunnels than I am. I was at a fork in the road. Lost it."

"Then I saw a beam of light flashing from the hole on the right. I ran in and found Kaimengting fighting with it. I saw Kaimengting chasing the Balrog up the endless ladder, and followed them Behind him. Thousands of steps are spiraling continuously, circling upwards, and the final exit is on the edge of the natural rock of the snow-covered Zilak Zigil spire." Gandalf drank tea slowly, as if recalling what a bad thing.

"Kai Mengting didn't see me, but I could see her and fought against it together with her. Its flames were sharply dimmed under the attack of Frost, and Kai Mengting and I gave it the final blow together. "

"But the secret fire burned more and more vigorously on its body, and there was no sign of it being extinguished. At this time, I saw a vague shadow appearing beside Kai Mengting." Gandalf paused, and then continued, " It was Varda who appeared, and she turned to me after accompanying Kaimengting into the fire of life that burned the ice and snow, and said to me:

"'You need not worry, this is the last stage she must go through, and in this blazing fire of life she will be reborn.'

"'Is she here because the miracle of the Valar is needed here?' I asked.

"'Where she comes from, you can learn from Lorien. As for where she goes, it depends on her heart.' Varda said slowly, walking towards me. Destiny, this is where she belongs. I sincerely hope that the light in her heart will never be extinguished, and never forget the blessings bestowed by the sea.'

"Varda slowly extended her hand to my forehead, and I felt that my whole body was baptized by light.

"'Mithrandil, Oroin, go where you should go, do what you should do. You are not needed here yet, the battlefield far away is your world. You don't need to worry about her, she will later will come back.'

"I felt farther and farther away from the burning flame, until the light of the fire and Varda's figure was no longer seen. I lay on the solid top and watched the steps were blocked by burning and broken rocks, and the tower of Durin fell, no longer exists.

"Gwyhill found me and brought me here, and that's all my story, ma'am."

Gandalf left behind a long sword and a long bow. Galadriel stroked the inscriptions on the hilt and the carvings on the long bow, with nostalgia for the far west in his eyes.

"Get a horse and some clothes and send them to the foot of Moria, not too far from the forest," she ordered.

Anna followed Oluofen and walked under the familiar Mellon tree. She looked at the elf with her head down and smiled slightly.

"Is this the horse you prepared?" She pointed to the white horse behind her and asked.

Oluofen quickly raised his head, but immediately lowered his head, "I don't know." He whispered, "If Madam ordered, I wouldn't know."

Anna was thoughtful, "The expedition team has passed through the forest?"

"Yes—yes," answered Orofen, "and Mithrandil."

"It seems that your life is not very good recently." Anna pointed out that the outpost in the middle of the forest was rarely used.

"Several orc legions are heading towards us."

Anna nodded, she was suddenly glad that she came here.She looked at the comfortable boots under her feet and was very moved.

This is half my home, and I can't let it fall.

Soon they came to the edge of Karasgarathon, where a group of solemn troops rested outside the beautiful Garden City.

A soldier who was resting on the side saw them and walked over.

"Who is she, Olofin?" asked the Elf.

"Eya Anna? Kai Mengting." Anna nodded politely, "Long time no see, Herator, how is Frowwen?"

Herator looked at Anna in surprise, a little unbelievable.

"Elberis! You are, Your Highness Kai Mengting!"

"It's me." Anna replied with a smile, "Crawled out of the abyss."

A group of soldiers gathered around hearing Herator's voice, chattering, and Anna was overwhelmed by familiar or unfamiliar faces.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" Orofen plucked up his courage and shouted, "Stop, we're going to see Lady Galadriel!"

The elves finally returned to their positions peacefully, but they all stared at Anna curiously.

They passed through the city that Anna was already very familiar with, and came to a place she often visited. The sun was shining brightly at noon, and after turning a corner, Anna saw two long-lost figures.

Galadriel looked at her benevolently, opening his arms slightly.

"—Welcome back, Anna."

Without much words or actions, they looked at each other and saw a new kind of joy in each other's eyes. Anna suddenly couldn't hold back her tears. She remembered the parting in Lorien six years ago in 610. The end of winter embarked on a lonely road of trials, staggering on the narrow road, moving forward alone.Through the hurt of thorns, and the emptiness under the glory, proudly and stubbornly straighten the back, slowly grope with the pain in the lonely time, painful, tired, once wanted to give up, but still persist, after the struggle , Looking back on the hard years of those years, she shed tears.

As time goes by, I think back to when I came here ignorantly, but compared to now, I have returned with glory, with a real new identity.

"Eya Anna Kaimenting, the child of nature, the light of Varda, the daughter of the sea. Congratulations on passing the trial of Vera, keeping your original intention on the road of constantly pursuing your dreams, and never forgetting your essence. We are sincerely happy , because we have been waiting, and that waiting has finally come to an end, and at this last moment, I gather with you under the Melon tree."

She stepped forward and hugged the two lords one by one, speechless.
