Chapter 111 Chapter 111
At this time, the ship had not sailed too far, and the seabirds quickly caught up with them. After flying around the mast a few times, they flew straight into the ship through a small porthole at the stern.
The real Vesper was sitting on a pile of firewood in this small cubicle, playing with his hands in boredom. When he saw Romeo Moston, his eyes lit up: "You are here."
"It's okay, he thought for a while that I'm going to trick him by pretending to be you, and it's too late to react now." Romimos shook his long hair that was blown by the sea breeze, and looked down at Weiss. Pa's foot, "It's just that you have been wronged to wear this thing all the time on the ship. You can only wait until Middle Earth to get the key and open the lock."
"Ah?" Vespa pouted, "But it's super inconvenient to move while wearing this, let alone running, I can't even walk if I want to walk faster."
"It's useless for you to act like a baby with me. I can't just pry it open right now. The traces left by that are too obvious." Romimos replied coldly, but after all, Vespa is a substitute She was wearing shackles, and she softened her tone, "At most, you should try not to move around for a while, and if there is any situation, I will just run more errands for you."
"Really?" Vesper immediately beamed with joy, and stretched out his arms towards Romimos, "Then you can carry me back to the room."
"I think you still have to get used to walking at this distance." Romemos immediately turned back.Vespa was a man who would push her a little bit of sunshine, and she should have expected it. "I'm going to find Director Okanom to explain the situation to him. Take your time, no one is urging you, so don't worry."
"Are you just abandoning me so coldly?" Vespa's tone was exaggerated, his expression was artificial, full of indignation, and when he saw that Romimos was unmoved, he instantly turned into a look of self-pity, "It's okay, you go Go ahead. I love you even if you're scum."
"Isn't it enough to perform on stage every day?" Romimos said disdainfully, turned around and flew away from the window through which he flew in.
The Numenorians did not begin to colonize the coastal areas of Middle-earth in recent years, but due to various obstructions from Romimos, Sauron and other natives of Middle-earth, this process has not been smooth. The Manors really began to have absolute control and influence in Middle-earth, and they not only stopped at the coast but also developed inland. In fact, it only started in this decade.Compared with Numenor's own country, the living conditions of the Numenorers in Middle-earth are still much more difficult, and entertainment items are also very limited, so it is not difficult to understand the expectations of the people here for the upcoming Royal Troupe of Alandor, and As before, the name Romimos is a brilliant gimmick, even for those who aren't into drama.
Later, even the elves heard about these propagandas.
"Have you all heard, too?" asked Celebrimbor.Glorfindel always felt that there was a little excitement hidden in his tone, "Romimos is coming back to Middle-earth."
"Yes." Elrond nodded, "and their next stop is Pelakir."
Among the large and small cities and ports built by the Numenoreans along the west coast of Middle-earth, Pelakir is still a very special place. On the one hand, this is because of its unique geographical location. The builders, managers and residents of the city are mainly loyalist, and it is also one of the few Númenor cities that maintains a secret friendly relationship with Lindon.
"So what?" Glorfindel asked.
"I want to go and see her. After a rough calculation, the two of us have not seen each other for 500 years." Celebrimbor said with emotion, "And she is in such a situation now, to be honest, I am a little worried she."
"But your real identity is still a secret to the outside world. We can't guarantee that everyone in Pelakir will not disagree at all. If someone finds out that you are still alive, it will be very difficult for you and Romemos." Dangerous. Romimos also said before that she doesn't want to have any contact with you." Glorfindel said, "So my advice is to be careful."
"How shall Men know me, unless Sauron himself comes?" said Celebrimbor. "And of course I shall use the Ring to alter my appearance. What do you think, Erenian?"
"Huh? It's rare for you to want to go out, how can I refuse." Gilgalad joked, "Of course it's right to be cautious, but you should go out occasionally to relax."
"You may come with me," suggested Celebrimbor.
"Oh, I think about it too, but there are still so many unresolved matters in my hands." Gilgalad sighed, and leaned back on the chair, "And even if it's Pelakir, I don't care about the current situation. It’s too ostentatious to go there in person.”
"That's right." Celebrimbor turned to look at the others, Glorfindel first, and then turned away. "Where are the others? Anyone want to go?"
Glorfindel bit his lip unconsciously and remained silent.
Celebrimbor shrugged. He had given up hope, but Elrond suddenly said, "I'll go with you."
"You want to go?" Glorfindel turned his head and stared at Elrond in surprise.
Even Celebrimbor was extremely surprised: "Well, I don't mean to bring someone to go with me. If you don't want to go, you don't have to go."
"I don't want to go." Elrond looked calm, "And I'm not going to Pelakir just to meet Romimos like you."
Gilgalad looked at these people with a smile on his face, as if he felt that everything in front of him was very interesting: "Actually, Elrond was planning to go to Pelakir recently, and be loyal to Númenor there. Send someone to discuss some things, since this incident happened by chance, you two can go together."
"I was just surprised," said Glorfindel. "I thought you hated Romimus."
"I don't stop doing things because I hate a person," replied Elrond, "and what I say next may surprise you. I don't mean to offend you, but if you I always thought that I hated Romimos as much as I hated Morgoth and Sauron, so I have to say that my views on them are different."
"I understand." Glorfindel said after pondering for a while, "You were not even born when Romimoth was active as Morgoth's servant. Although you are the descendant of the King of Gondolin, you are Gondolin is but history after all."
"You seem to be blaming me." Elrond gave a wry smile, "but I don't mean to speak for Romimus. The difference I am referring to between her and other notorious minions of Morgoth is not How much kinder she is than them. Besides, although I have not personally experienced the pain of the destruction of Gondolin, I have also dealt with Romimos head-on, and I know that she is by no means kind."
"Because you've met her, I'm even more surprised that you can still be calm when you face her again." As if you weren't one of those unlucky people who were played around by Romemus more than 1000 years ago .Glorfindel hesitated for a moment, but did not say the second half of the sentence.In fact, that experience was one of the few black histories of the young Elrond. At first when Gilgalad made fun of it, Lord Rieldale made a lot of bad faces, but later he became smug. Expressionless, now he doesn't even object to meeting the culprit.Maybe this is growing up.
But Elrond heard Glorfindel's voice-over, and smiled slightly: "You also think I'm still brooding over what happened in the Twilight Land, don't you?"
"Don't you?" Glorfindel wondered, "You even learned the runes of the moon in just a few months."
"That's because I'm really interested in runes... Well, I might have been a little angry at first, but it was only for a while. As for later, I always showed that I didn't care about it, and I just followed Erenni. His Majesty An just made him happy." Elrond was troubled, "Your Majesty always said that I am young and old, but to be honest, even if I am not as old as you, I am not young."
"Oh, Gil-galad would think you young even if you were ten thousand years old," said Glorfindel.
Elrond sighed: "Let's get down to business, my experience in the Twilight Land can be told as a joke, they can say, 'Elrond, you are so smart at ordinary times, but you are so smart in Romemo I have suffered such a big loss under the hands of Sith.' But no one will joke with Celebrimbor about Erejan. Compared with Sauron, Romimoth's method seems to be an overkill. mischief."
"So I didn't say that? You haven't experienced the period when she was truly insane." Glorfindel disagreed, "Sauron needless to say, there is no doubt that he has received the true instruction of Morgoth, and Romimos may not be able to reconcile with him." He was not much better than him, and what was she doing to Gondolin that was essentially different from what Sauron did to Erejan?"
"So I never said that Romimos is a good man, please don't get me wrong." Elrond said kindly, "Of course Romimos is heinous, but what I want to say is that with Morgoth and Sauron Unlike those people, she doesn't seem to be doing evil for the benefit or pleasure of doing it, she's doing it simply because she doesn't care."
Glorfindel fell silent.He and Elrond walked down a long corridor all the way. Although this summer is coming to an end, the plants are still growing lushly. The vaults are densely covered, so that no sunlight can penetrate.
It wasn't until the end of the corridor, when the two were about to part ways, that Glorfindel asked in a low voice, "Why do you think that?"
Elrond froze for a moment, and then realized: "Because, after seeing Romimos in the Twilight Land, I suddenly realized that in the eyes of an Enu, a god, the world may look like ours. What I saw was completely different. It was when you shot Romimos from a distance, and I tried to escape, but was trapped by her illusion. She didn't seem to use this trick on you."
"The illusion she gave me is much more real than what you see."
"Really?" However, Elrond didn't understand Glorfindel this time, "I don't know what she showed you. What I saw was the whole of Arda. There were no elves, men, or any Life, even the mountains and rivers... No, even the entire middle-earth is insignificant and invisible, and even the stars of Varda will burn out, and they will not be eternal. Time or space, the whole world is measured by the scale of God Meaningless."
"That's just an illusion," said Glorfindel, "not necessarily real."
"But my intuition tells me that the illusion I see is more representative of the world of gods than the reality I see, at least the world in Romimus' consciousness." Elrond took a deep breath, "So For a being like that, is it any surprise that she doesn't care?"
"What kind of theory is this? According to this, is the evil of Morgoth and Sauron also understandable? How can the kindness of Valar be explained?"
"Even for the same thing, different people have different approaches." Elrond said, "For example, for this flower, some people will feel joy and pity when they see it, while others will walk by it without squinting, or Some would tear it off and play with it for a while and throw it away. The Valar looked upon Iru's children as objects to be cared for and protected, Morgoth regarded them as slaves, playthings, and trophies, and Romimus, apparently She didn't care about these things at all. If she hadn't been lured into his camp by Morgoth, it is likely that she would not take the initiative to fight against elves and humans, but if flowers happened to stand in her way, she would not. I will bother to go around it. Rather than saying that she is cruel and vicious, it is better to say that she is extremely indifferent and unreasonable, but she is not a human being, even Vera, there are places where they cannot understand human beings."
"No, I don't think so." Glorfindel said, he was mostly listening to Elrond's opinions before, "Maybe what you said has some truth, there is indeed a huge and insurmountable gap between gods and humans , but I don't think Romemos is as inhuman as you said, otherwise she wouldn't react so much to the fall of the Dusk. But obviously, she can be cold-blooded to people who have nothing to do with her to the extreme."
"Well..." Elrond pondered for a while, "Then what do you think Romimos's attitude is towards Celebrimbor? Is it possible that she really regards him as a friend?"
"Oh, then who knows?" Glorfindel said coldly, "How long have Celebrimbor and Romemos been together? Five years. I wouldn't dare to be with Romemus for 500 years." Praise like that. But Lord Celebrimbor is mostly feeling good about himself, and I have nothing to say. But do you think it's possible?"
"Well, it's hard to say, isn't it? After all, we don't know how they got along in those five years. Some people might just get along easier." Elrond said.
"But... 500 years have passed, and it's impossible for Romimos to remain unchanged." Glorfindel frowned as if remembering something, "I went to see her when the Twilight Land just fell ten years ago. At that time, she was in a very bad state."
"That's true." Elrond's expression also became serious, "It's not surprising that a person like her who is radical by nature becomes a monster surrounded by vengeful anger. In this case, it is even more necessary for me to personally Went to see her with Celebrimbor. Do you want to come along? Just do me a favor, because I do have to go to Pelagir this time, and I can't keep my eyes on her, Kay. LeBriporn trusts people too easily."
"Uh……"
"Think about it," said Elrond, "but don't force it. If you really don't want to go, I'll just find someone else."
Celebrimbor had no objection to Glorfindel's sudden addition, in fact he seemed rather pleased.
"If there are more people to support, Luo fans will be happy too." He said.
However, Celebrimbor ignored a problem, and that was the attractiveness of the name Romimos, and she probably didn't need special support.
So Glorfindel and Celebrimbor fell into an awkward silence as they watched the "all tickets are sold out" notice at the entrance of the theater.
When Elrond came out from the back door of the Governor's Mansion in Pelakir, he saw the two people who were supposed to be sitting in the theater, one standing by the tree and the other leaning against the door. They had no communication with each other, and it was so quiet. Feel confused and depressed.
"It seems that the theme of the play is quite serious?" Elrond raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Or did something happen to Romimus? I thought you would stay there longer Some."
"No, the tickets are sold out, we didn't go in," Glorfindel said.
"...oh," said Elrond.
The surroundings of the three of them became quiet again, and there was a bit of humor in the quiet, a bit of embarrassment in the funny, and a bit of sadness in the embarrassment.
"Then can we find her directly? Not as an audience." Elrond proposed another plan.
"It's not easy." Celebrity shook his head. "In order to prevent people from sneaking in to disturb or destroy the situation, the backstage and the places where the actors live are still under strict guard, and we can't publicize it too high-profile. own identity."
"In that case..." Elrond wanted to say that he had to give up and go back home, but Glorfindel took the conversation away first.
"We can only go and ask Governor Pelakire to be more accommodating," Glorfindel said.
"Yes." Celebrimbor nodded gravely in agreement. "I feel very guilty now. It's not a big deal, but we shouldn't have abused our privileges like this."
hehe.Elrond scoffed at the hypocrisy of the two men.
