Chapter 16 Tom Bombadil
Dui's heart skipped a beat.
He had been attacked by the old willow tree's demonic sound and was already experiencing a stress response.
However, he soon discovered that the singing was not aggressive at all, but rather full of cheerful emotions.
Listen carefully, it's a man's voice.
It's not really a song; the melody is random and capricious, like someone humming to themselves for fun.
Before the person even appeared, the singing could already be heard from afar.
The cheerful singing seemed to have a magical power; the raging winds subsided, the groans and screams of the tree people ceased, and even the raging forest fires were quickly extinguished.
Dui's pupils contracted.
What kind of power is this?
He didn't detect any magical fluctuations at all, and the raging fire gradually died down on its own!
As the singing drew closer, a figure appeared at the edge of the old forest.
He was wearing a tall, old hat with a wide brim and a long blue feather stuck in the hatband, and he jumped out, waving his arms and legs.
Illuminated by the moonlight and the remaining firelight,
The man was only slightly taller than a hobbit, but much shorter than a human, making his race uncertain.
He wore a pair of large yellow boots on his thick legs, and he charged ahead like a water buffalo looking for water. The surrounding trees automatically moved aside to make way for him.
He wore a blue coat, his cheeks were as red as apples, a large brown beard covered the lower half of his face, and his blue eyes shone brightly in the night.
Dui knew him, Tom Bombadil, a very mysterious figure.
The Hobbit songs include the story of Tom Bumbadir, who lived in the Old Forest and never bothered to hide his presence. He also knew the Hobbits of Stagland on the outskirts of the Old Forest.
Before the Fellowship of the Ring, Frodo, Sam, and the other three hobbits chose to enter the Old Forest to avoid the Ringwraiths. When they were trapped by the Old Willow Tree, it was Tom Bombadil who appeared and rescued them.
Even the One Ring, something that even Gandalf, a Maiar, dared not touch, had no effect on Tom Bombadil. Instead, he used it as a magic trick to manipulate things.
Even when worn on the hand, it doesn't change anything at all; it's just like an ordinary ring.
Even when Frodo puts on the Ring and enters the Dark Realm to become invisible, he can see right through him.
It can be described as very mysterious and unfathomable.
If he hadn't been unwilling to participate in the war between light and darkness, the Great Ring of the Third Age would probably have ended long ago.
With his arrival, the last forest fire was finally extinguished, leaving not a single spark.
Those Hoon tree people whose branches and leaves were burned away by the flames and whose trunks were blackened and carbonized also survived.
"Hey, trees, what are you thinking? You shouldn't be awake!"
"Return to your positions, eat your dirt, dig deep into your roots, drink plenty of water, and fall into a deep sleep. Bombardier advises you not to cause trouble!"
He spoke loudly and solemnly to the surrounding trees.
His voice carried an irresistible command, and the trees all turned away, returning to the forest to take root and slumber, drawing energy from the earth to regain their vitality.
After doing all this, he regained his cheerful demeanor, excitedly leaping over the fence and coming to the crowd, greeting them with a beaming smile: "Hello everyone!"
"Tom, what brings you here?" Rory Brandy Deer stepped forward and asked with a puzzled tone, clearly indicating that they were very familiar with each other.
Tom Bombardier looked exasperated and complained in a joking tone, "Lorry, you guys have really gotten me into trouble."
"I had just drifted off to sleep with my beloved wife in my arms when I was awakened by the howling of the trees. In order to prevent the trees from disturbing my wife Goldenberry's sweet dreams, I had no choice but to leave my warm bed and come to resolve this conflict."
"Tom," Rory Brandy Deer explained, "I'm sorry to disturb you and Ms. Goldenberry's sleep, but these trees have attacked our home without provocation, so we have no choice but to fight back!"
"Oh right, this is Wizard Duir. If it weren't for him, we would probably have suffered heavy losses today!" With that, Rory introduced Duir to Tom Bombardier.
Tom Bombardier looked at Dui with curiosity, his blue eyes bright as stars. "I know you, magical wizard from another land. Your magic is very interesting!"
Dui's heart skipped a beat. Who exactly was this mysterious Tom Bombadil? Did he know about his identity as a time traveler?
Dui was overwhelmed with emotion. He tried to calm himself down and cautiously asked, "Hello, Mr. Bambadir, I am the wizard Duidir. Do you know where I come from?"
Tom nodded and then shook his head, his gaze sincere and undisguised. "Tom knows the name of every person, every tree, and every stone on earth. The moment you set foot on this earth, Tom will know you, but he will not know where you come from."
"Speaking of which, I've met other people who called themselves wizards before, just like you. They also suddenly appeared on earth, but I could tell they came from different places than you."
Hearing Tom's words, Dui breathed a slight sigh of relief. Tom clearly knew that he came from outside Middle-earth, but he didn't know that he was a time traveler.
As for the other wizards he mentioned, they should be people like Gandalf and Saruman.
Although Gandalf and others called themselves wizards, they were actually sent by the Valar to help the inhabitants of Middle-earth fight against the Maiar (lesser gods) of Sauron. They were just restricted in their abilities and traveled the world as wizards.
Even knowing that Tom was unaware of his own transmigration identity, Dui still dared not underestimate him and was also very curious about his identity.
In this world, the only species capable of longevity, besides the Valar and the Maya, are elves, as well as dark creatures such as dragons and Balrogs.
First, Tom Bombadil eliminates the Balrog and the like. Second, based on his height, he is clearly not an elf. Finally, only Vera and Maya remain.
However, if Bombardier is a Maiar, the One Ring, which even Gandalf and other Maiar dared not touch, would be like a toy in his hands, completely unaffected. Therefore, the possibility that he is a Maiar can be ruled out.
As for the Valar, besides Valar Milkor, also known as Morgoth, there are fourteen Valar, all with names, who live in the western continent of Aman.
There is no Vera who matches Bombardier.
Clearly, Tom is not one of the main gods, Vera.
Of course, Dui had also speculated whether he was the creator Ilúvatar, but based on the previous answer, he clearly did not fit the bill.
Dui didn't think that Ilúvatar, the creator goddess of this world, would be unaware of his existence as a transmigrator.
He even suspected that his journey to this place was probably orchestrated by the creator god.
Therefore, the final conclusion is that the identity of this mysterious Tom Bombadil remains unknown.
