Nature

In the morning, Anna got up very early. After breakfast, she followed the sun and walked around in the forest.

She was in a good mood. Last night, she asked Frogyn about the meaning of "Oluofen", and then she realized that the name means mountain in Sindarin.

"Oro generally refers to the small hill Kaelin Amroth."

"Then what does Legolas mean?"

"Legolas means green leaves." Frogyn explained to her.

green leaves.Anna looked at the golden and red leaves. Rose Lorien didn't have many green leaves, but it was a golden forest.

She thought of Mrs. Elf's words again.She lets her follow her heart.So what is her heart?Is it Legolas?When she thought of this, her heart began to beat faster, she blushed, lowered her head, and began to smile silly.

Going around, Anna came to the elf gathering place. The elves along the way greeted her when they saw her, "Good morning, Kai Mengting."

"Good morning." She also responded to them with a smile.

When she saw Orofen, she asked, "Morning, Orofen, have you seen Your Highness Legolas?"

"His Highness should be in the palace." The young elf blushed slightly and replied.

"Thank you." Anna responded with a smile, and then left.

At noon, Anna finally found Legolas, and when she saw him, she rushed up. "Good afternoon, Your Highness."

"Good afternoon, Kai Mengting."

Anna froze for a moment, feeling very awkward. The name seemed to lengthen the distance between them.

"Don't call me Kai Mengting, I have other names."

Legolas raised his eyebrows, "That's right, so is your name Eya Anna?"

"No, please continue to call me Anna." Anna said with a serious face, but secretly laughed in her heart.

If he calls me Ana, it feels like a nickname for Eya Anna.

Legolas looked at her and smiled slightly, "Okay, Anna." Then he paused and said, "I'm going to the library today."

Anna was taken aback, and suddenly realized that she had been wandering outside in the past ten days since she came to Roselorien.She also thought of the scene in the library in the dense forest, when Legolas explained the knowledge of elves to him and taught her to learn the common language of the West.

Legolas continued, "Although Rose Lorien's collection of books is not as large as Rivendell's, there are some precious books brought back from Amen State."

Anna had a flash of inspiration, "Will there be records about mermaids?"

"Perhaps, come and see with me?"

Anna blushed, and her heartbeat started to speed up. She couldn't wish more, she muttered, then adjusted her mood, and said, "I'm free in the afternoon, so let's go together."

Anna suddenly felt a little regretful.Standing in front of the rows of bookshelves, she looked at the swashbuckling elven characters on them, and remembered the fact that she didn't understand the language.

Looking at Legolas who was excitedly lingering beside the precious ancient book, she decided not to disturb him.

She frowned, and began to try to find words she recognized from the spines of old books.

Opening a book, she choked on the dust and began to cough violently.Legolas raised his head and glanced at her, and after confirming that it was all right, he continued to lower his head.

Anna suddenly wanted to cry.

Everything seems to be going well, but why is it still like this?

She is sad.Facing the bookshelf, she suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

I exist in this world, but this world does not exist.

Her eyes suddenly became sore, she thought of Legolas and Lady Galadriel, Haldir and Orofen.They were all elves, and she was just a stranger.

——"You may be able to accept Vera's four tests for you according to Vera's instructions, become a veritable light of nature, integrate with elves, and make friends with nature, but you may fail, and then you will die when you are young. Die. You can also leave here, take the loneliness of a foreigner, integrate into a group similar to you, forget your original identity, forget the elves, forget the mermaid, and then live a peaceful life, and finally, in the set At the moment, go to the place that only Iluvita knows. These two roads are difficult and easy, it just depends on where your heart is."

Lady Galadriel's words were still ringing in her ears.She suddenly remembered the picture she saw in the water mirror.

It was a vast sea, and what appeared with the sea was her heart.

Legolas.

——"I want to let the world know my name, and I want to make my name go down in history."

She suddenly remembered why she came to this world.

—— "My dream is to let all the people in the world remember my name."

- "Follow your heart. Where your heart is, you will be."

My heart is here, in this turbulent time, in this time when something great can be done.

"Once you become a hero, you will inevitably be accompanied by the sacrifice of many innocent people."

"Then it's up to me to save those people, those who live in history."

——"May you always follow your heart, Eya Anna Kai Mengting, the sea is your destination, nature is your destination, may you keep your original intention in the prosperity of the world, and may your clean soul not be polluted by darkness , May your night eyes reflect the light and become our pride."

She stole a glance at Legolas, at his blond hair, his profile, his focused expression.She suddenly remembered the small hill.

What separates them is not only the life span of thousands of years and the disparity in identity, but also the deep-rooted cultural habits of thinking, behavior and cultural habits of the race itself.

- "How can I be successful?"

—"Have you ever been born?"

--"No."

- "Have you had any luck?"

--"I have no idea."

- "Then work hard, keep working hard, work hard. Until you succeed."

She suddenly thought of that night, that water mirror, that sea.

That heart-shaped crystal is her heart!

The soul of the sea, the sea of ​​the soul.She is going to the sea!

Anna's hand holding the book was shaking slightly.

She knew what she was going to do!She wants to become an elf, through continuous hard work and struggle, to become an elf, and let her name become the protagonist in the folk songs!

She is going to the sea, and under the guidance of Vera, she passes the test and returns to nature.She wants to let thousands of hardships sharpen her body and mind, and become a great man of a generation.

Then, she would come back, she would find Legolas, and pursue him boldly and boldly.

She looked at Legolas, and smiled slightly.

Legolas was still concentrating on reading the book, she pursed her lips, and left quietly.

Anna found Mrs. Galadriel and explained her intentions.

"I'm going to the sea, to accept the test of Vera, and then become an elf."

Madam Galadriel looked at her, and there was a slight change in her solemn but gentle face. "You chose this..." She lowered her eyes slowly, "You followed your heart..."

"You keep asking me to do that."

Lady Galadriel's eyes widened. "No, no!" She stopped abruptly. "Yes, you need to follow your heart. You need to go to the sea, to Mystrond, to Beleger ocean."

"I'll be back," Anna assured her.

Madam looked at her, and then slowly said: "You must come back..."

Anna was looking for Legolas. She started from the library and went all the way to the side of Nimrodell Creek. Now the elves in the entire Golden Forest knew that she was looking for His Highness the Prince of the Jungle Forest.

"Are you looking for me?" A figure suddenly jumped down, Anna turned around hastily, and saw Legolas.

Has her hearing deteriorated?Why didn't I feel the sound of his coming?

"Are you looking for me, Anna?" Seeing that Anna didn't answer for a long time, Legolas asked again.

"Uh... yes." Anna answered bravely, forgetting all the words she had planned.

"Is something wrong?" Legolas slowed down his tone and asked as gently as possible, but Anna could still hear the impatience in his tone.

"I'm leaving." Anna said softly.The forest was silent.

"When?"

"Tomorrow." Anna replied honestly, and began to think about how to give the reason euphemistically.

But she suddenly realized that it was unnecessary, because Legolas didn't want to ask any more questions, and they were deadlocked like this, and it was Anna who spoke first.

"I'll be back." Anna said the same words.

Legolas' deep blue eyes stared at her, but they didn't have the Queen's Octavia or Thranduil's depth, only the endless blue ocean.

"Come back soon." He said lightly.

Anna's heart suddenly warmed up, and I almost blurted out a sentence, but then she began to hesitate.

Seeing Legolas go further and further away, her heart beat faster and faster, and a powerful force urged her to speak.

Tell me quickly, maybe after this time, there will be no next time. When she comes back, I don't know how many years to wait.

"I like you..." Anna closed her eyes and went all out.

Legolas looked back suspiciously, and Anna belatedly realized that he was speaking Chinese.

Her face suddenly burned, but she calmed down again, he couldn't understand anyway.It's good that the mind is conveyed.

"It's nothing." She said lightly, switched to English, saw Legolas turned around again, and walked back backwards, "Goodbye." She said softly, then turned her head and fled back.

A gust of wind blew, and a golden leaf fell and floated on the ground.The forest is still the same, the time is still the same, the two people are going in opposite directions and going farther and farther, one is going to the east and the other is going to the west.Those words hidden in my heart were never said again, just like the sentence I like you, it is destined that no one can understand.

If possible, I hope to go back in time and go back to the day when we met, I will turn my back and stop looking at you.

If possible, I hope that time can be reversed, and I will let myself finish all I want to say when I go back to the day we parted.

I'll tell you, tell you how much I love you.I will tell you, I have loved you for a long time, so long that even I have forgotten when it started.

Then, I will tell you that I will come back, please wait for me, and wait for the moment when I come back, we will walk through the long and silent life together.

But there is no if in the world, and time cannot be reversed.But I never regret it.We walked forward, cried, laughed, and returned to square one.Along the way, many people accompanied us.When the pain has become a thing of the past, when we laugh and talk about the memories of our youth, our hearts never shed tears for it.

Some roads can never turn back.Some people can give you a second chance.

Running in the opposite direction, passing by, and leaving without saying goodbye three times, can you use your ruthless words to offset it?If it's not enough, I have 60 years and a journey to go, please make my heart grieve for you three times.

I won't cry for you anymore, I will just look at you with a smile and walk the road I once walked.

We are all growing up, starting from the origin, going our separate ways, making a big circle, and then coming back here.

Finally, may I learn to be merciful in misfortune, and to be tolerant in loneliness.

The author has something to say: it has been fixed. (June 6)
