Dragonborn from Lord of the Rings

Chapter 59 The Road to Homecoming
The coalition marched along the route of Weathertop--Glen--Misty Mountains--Lothlórien--Gloomy Hills--Death Swamp--Dagorlad during the Last Alliance of the Second Era.

On the way back, he decided to go south, passing through Ithilien in Gondor, and then take the North-South Road, all the way back to the north.

So, for the first time, they happened at the borders of Northern Elysian, Dagorlad, and Death Swamp respectively.

The elves of the Woodland Kingdom and Karasgarathon need to go north here to return to Mirkwood and Los Lorien Forest.

They don't go the same way as Dragonborn and Glorfindel.

Legolas was the first friend to say goodbye to the Silver King.

The elf prince said: "Please forgive me for leaving temporarily, but I believe that this is not a farewell, and we will see you again in the end."

The Dragonborn who has changed his name to Turka Alakano said with a smile: "Perhaps in the autumn of the coming year, no more than the third, I will go to the Kingdom of the Woodlands. What does the big green forest that invades look like."

Great Greenwood, another name for Mirkwood.

"That would be a very honorable thing." Legolas Greenleaf said happily.

So, the two sides parted like this, and looked forward to seeing each other again.

The coalition moved on.

Soon, the army arrived at Cair Andros on the lower reaches of the Anduin.This is a long and narrow island about 10 miles (16 kilometers) long, with lush vegetation and lush vegetation.

It was shaped like a large ship, and the northern tip of the island was as high and sharp as a prow, and the water of the Anduin crashed against the sharp rocks there, splashing countless white foams.

The place name "Kel Andros" is derived from the shape of the island, which means "ship of foam".

To the east of Caer Andros is Mordor, the lair of the Dark Lord, and to the west is Anorien, the seat of Minas Tirith, the capital of Gondor. One of the dangerous crossings of the Duin River (other crossings include the city of Osgiliath and the Shuanghetao area in Rohan).

Therefore, Kyle Andros has an important strategic position for the Kingdom of Gondor. The Gondors built fortresses on the island and stationed a certain number of troops.

The coalition forces decided to cross the river here and return to the north. They did not go to the royal city of Gondor, Minas Tirith, as Exelian had said.

The reason given by the gray-robed wizard is: "I doubt whether the coalition forces going to the Holy White City will be welcomed by the acting city lord there. The actions of Turgon II have been heard even in the far north. The Last City of Hope is not a proper move."

Even Exelian couldn't refute this.

Because he himself was Jiao Zhi who ran out to participate in this war, and he couldn't be more clear about his father's character.

So the young Exelian could only say this: "Then, I hope you can walk freely in Gondor without being questioned. This is the order of the prime minister's son, Exelian."

When he said this, he sent messengers to Kyle Andros and all the subsequent Gondor checkpoints, asking them to let the Silver King and the coalition forces go.

For this, Turka expressed his gratitude and said: "Although we are still acquainted, the name of Gondor has long been heard. I hope that one day, I can go to the city of the last hope of mankind and see the outstanding wisdom and technology of the ancestors." .”

At this time, human beings still maintain their enthusiasm and humility. Exelian said: "Human beings will always welcome the arrival of the king of the north. The name of Turka Arakano will always be passed down in Gondor!"

But they don't know that, in an unknown corner, shadows have begun to hang over the heads of human beings.The shadow lurks so deep that not even the wizard is aware of it.

Adrasir of Dol Amroth may have sensed it, but the oath made at Minas Tirith bound him.Couldn't get the young swan rider to say more on the matter.

So the two sides bid farewell, and Exelian led the Gondor humans to continue southward, preparing to recover Minas Ithil, which was taken away by the dark minions.At the same time, some of the slaves rescued by the elves were taken away.

The group of slaves captured by Sauron's minions included Gondorians, Rohanites, and even dwarves and savages in the barbaric land.

They work hard every day without rest, and almost everyone is skinny and out of shape.

Now that these slaves have been freed, most of them will return to their homes, but some are already homeless.

A large part of them will go to Minas Tirith with Exelian to start their new lives.

And some of them returned to the north with the silver king who rescued them, and became the first subjects of Turka Arakano.

There are thousands of people in this group, including men, women and children, but they have one thing in common, they are all relatively strong and young.

Because the old people cannot bear such a long journey, most of them will stay in Gondor or Rohan, and make local arrangements.

Only the younger ones will embark on an endless journey with the belief of following the most radiant silver king to start a new life in the north.

Fortunately, along the way, with the care of the elves, this group of talents finally reached the north.

The guards of Kyle Andros were released smoothly because of Exelian's order.

But Cair Andros didn't have so many ships for the army and thousands of freed slaves to pass, so the army stayed here for two days before finally crossing the Anduin River.

At that time, Turgon II had already received news that the coalition forces had defeated the Sombra of Mordor and were returning to the court.

But in the end Minas Tirith's reaction was not far from what the wizard expected.

After a long silence, the news from the court of Gondor is: I am very happy to hear the news that the Eastern Phantom has been exorcised, but this is not in my plan, nor has I received my blessing, so I will not share the victory the fruits of the land, let them go home, for Gondor will not hinder a victorious king.

As a result, Turgon II's level of governance was judged as fatuous by more and more people.

Even Exelion's recovery of Minas Ithil, which had been captured by Nazgul before, could not conceal the heated discussion in the city of Gondor.

And this also strengthened Exelion's heart for change.

11 month 10 day.

The coalition forces crossed the Anduin River, passed the edge of the Druadan Forest, passed the North-South Road, passed through Anorien, the northernmost fiefdom of Gondor, and entered the territory of Rohan.

Thus, the third separate occurrence occurred.

Prince Sengar of Rohan, who had been away for a long time, and Iomgar, who ignored the law and abandoned his territory and people, and led an Iored to join the coalition army, bid farewell to the silver king Turka Arakano at the same time. .

Sengel said: "I have a lot of disagreements with my father, and I didn't want to return to the country at this time, but there are many people from Rohan among the rescued people, so I must personally escort them back to their hometown. Now, in front of me is Land of pastures for the children of Eorl, I think my duty is done, and it is time to part! May the winds of Manwe show you the way, my lord, and may your journey be smooth!"

Iomgar said: "I ignored the king's law and joined this holy war. Although this will be a heroic deed that I and my family can be proud of, in the end the king's law will not I'm partial to anyone, I think I'd better ask the king first, so that the king of hussars may not spread his anger to my wife and children."

As for the two, the wizard Gandalf's rhetoric is different.He said: "Children of Eorl, why are you so eager to say goodbye, maybe a turning point is just around the corner, why don't you let us stay a few more days?"

Turka also said: "My friend, the previous two partings have already made me feel so sentimental. Now the hometown of the hospitable Rohir people is close at hand. Why don't we talk about it for a few more days? Maybe the Lord of the Golden Temple I will forgive everyone for their mistakes, and choose to generously embrace the old people who have returned."

Therefore, Sengar and Iomgar could only continue to accompany the Silver King all the way until they passed through the Ferien Forest in the East Volde region, and the Lord of the Golden Temple of Edoras finally sent his messenger.

The messenger rode on a steed, holding the banner of King Finger, and said loudly: "My king has already known the deeds of the king of the north, and he admires Turka Arakano's bravery very much. Now the descendants of Eorl are already here Meduseld set up a feast to welcome the silver king who has returned from victory!"

At the same time, he conveyed the king's order to Sengar and Iomgar.

"Your majesty has forgiven you for your reckless actions, and ordered his messenger to bring the two lords back to Meduseld's palace."

At that time, Turka sat on the Holy Spirit Nahar, thanked the Hussar King of Rohan for his kindness and generosity, and said: "May the Hussars of Rohan be strong forever! I am Turka Arakano .”

The envoy was overwhelmed by the sacred and stalwart figure of the dragonborn, and he hurriedly dismounted to salute the silver king, obediently, like a servant.

Sengar and Iomgar looked at each other, and finally frowned, accepting the messenger's order.

So the army went back.

With the order of King Finger and the endorsement of the envoy, the journey went very smoothly.

Some villagers from the Rohir villages along the North-South Road flocked to both sides of the road curiously to watch these legendary races returning from victory and the silver king at the front of the team.

Everyone was overwhelmed by the sacred and stalwart figure of Turka Arakano, and these Rohir people shouted: Great knight!Bema!
—both of which refer to the Valar Orome.

Come to praise the silver king's brilliance like a god.

And serve food and drink.

In this regard, Gandalf the Gray advised Turka to accept it, on the grounds that it could improve the food and situation of the rescued slaves who followed the silver king back north.

These days, although they feed their stomachs and heal their bodies and minds through the elves' marching food, Rambas, they still cannot completely replace their thirst for ordinary food. Now the people of Rohir are willing to provide food, which just solves this problem.

Turka thought that what the wizard said was reasonable, so he took all of them and distributed them to the refugees behind him.

But at the same time, he also admitted that this is a gift from the people of Rothschild, and everyone should be grateful.

As a result, the prestige of the Dragonborn in the hearts of the refugees and the Rohir people deepened.

particular.

As someone saw that Prince Senger, who had been away from the country for a long time, was actually walking on the road home with the Silver King, so the news that the prince participated in this holy war and returned to the country suddenly spread among the Rohir people. open.

More and more Rohir people came to see the figure of the legendary silver knight and the long-lost prince.

There is an endless stream of horsemen coming from all over Rohan every day, almost blocking the road.So much so that the coalition forces have traveled from Ferrien Forest to Edoras for nearly ten days and still haven't seen the shadow of the Golden Palace.

In the end, this incident alarmed King Finger who was waiting in Meduseld.He sent the king's guard to escort the silver king Turka Arakano, the wizard and others to Edoras first, and only then did this embarrassing problem be solved.

They galloped almost without stopping.

Finally, after running northward for more than 30 miles, a mountain range stood in front of it. The peak was white and the mountain was surrounded by black stripes.

The rolling meadows stretched down to the hills that clustered at the foot of the mountains, and climbed up into the dark valleys that had not been touched by the morning light, winding all the way to the heart of the mighty mountains.

The widest of these valleys opened right in front of the party of travelers, like a long bay among the mountains.

In the depths of this valley they glimpsed a line of rolling hills containing a peak, and at the mouth of the valley rose a solitary plateau like a sentinel.

At the foot of the plateau is a silver belt, which is a stream that originates in the valley.In the light of the rising sun they caught a golden gleam on the distant highlands, the palace of Edoras, the royal city of the Rohirir, Meduseld.

"That's the home I lived in when I was a kid."

Sengel said with emotion: "But I haven't seen her for many years, and now seeing my homeland again, I feel really hard to let go of the nostalgia."

At that time, the prince of Rohan had already worn a simple ring decorated with amber on the middle finger of his left hand, and the streamer on it flickered, as if there were rays of light emerging from it.

His words made Sorin, who accompanied the Silver King back to the north, immediately feel nostalgia for his homeland and homeland. He stretched his stubby palm into his bosom, and tightly grasped a metal key.

The wizard was unaware of the shadow.

The master behind Gein's shadow was hit a bit miserably by the power of Western light, and he became more cautious and cautious this time.He used evil power to change the appearance of the Nine Precepts, but the essence remained the same.

In this way, it will become impossible for wizards to distinguish these rings of power through the legends and maps handed down from ancient times.

Turka looked up at once.

The hills were surrounded by ditches, solid parapet walls, and barbed fences.The roofs of the houses are exposed on the circle of hills, and on the green terrace in the center stands a majestic human palace.

The roof of the temple seemed to be paved with gold—it reflected light far and wide, and its doorposts were also gold.

At the foot of the walled hill, the road passed under the shadow of many tall green mounds.On the west side of those tombs, the green grass seemed to be covered with a sheet of snow—the grass was full of small flowers, like countless stars in the sky.

They are called Yongzhi flowers, and they are called 'Simbel Munai' in the human language here.Generally, it only blooms in front of the hero's grave.

The city gates and guards are all wearing bright armor, with their swords sheathed, and their expressions are solemn, like soldiers going to war.Combining what he saw and heard along the way, Turka had such a thought in his heart.

The martial arts in Rohan are strong, and all the people are soldiers.

No wonder whether it is Saruman in the white robe of Essinger or Sauron in Mordor, they all regard it as a very important thing to win and soak Rohan.
