Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth

So everything that happened in Isengard and around Orthanc was recorded by the surrounding trees and known to the Ents.

Not long after, Treebeard brought news: Saruman was secretly contacting the orcs in the Misty Mountains and winning over the Dunlendings.

And the orcs that Saruman came into contact with were the orcs who occupied Moria!

What a coincidence, isn't it?

Upon hearing the news, Due and Gandalf looked at each other in surprise.

They were just about to join forces with the dwarves to deal with the orcs and Balrogs of Moria.

Saruman is actually also in contact with the orcs in Moria?

Now, whether it is to obtain the Balrog's flames or to cut off Saruman's support.

They all had to take the situation in Moria more seriously.

Otherwise, once Saruman forms an alliance with the orcs, Saruman's power will skyrocket, and the threat he poses will be no less than that of Mordor.

After all, as the Maia of Aulë, the god of craftsmen, Saruman is not only proficient in powerful magic and witchcraft, but also good at industrial production. He can create various engineering equipment, forge weapons, and quickly arm the army.

It can be said that Saruman's engineering and forging talents are unmatched in Middle-earth, and can play a powerful role in the military.

Gandalf, who received the news, suddenly felt a sense of urgency.

In order to prevent Saruman from gaining power over the orcs, he planned to go north to the Lonely Mountain and organize another expedition to Moria.

At that time, with the help of the dwarves' power, we can eliminate the orcs in Moria and cut off Saruman's power.

At the same time, he joined forces with Dui and the dragon Smaug to eliminate the Balrog entrenched in the mines of Moria to prevent him from forming an alliance with Sauron and threatening the security of Middle-earth.

So after entrusting the tree people to continue monitoring Saruman and Isengard.

Gandalf, Due and Arwen left Fangorn Forest together and headed north to Lórien first.

In Lórien, Gandalf explains the situation to Galadriel and Celeborn.

Both of them took this matter very seriously and agreed with Gandalf's idea of ​​helping the dwarves retake Moria.

He also expressed his willingness to lend a helping hand when the time comes, allowing the elves of Lórien to block the back door of Moria on the Darkbrook Vale and eliminate the Orcs' effective forces.

Moria is the birthplace of the Dwarves of Durin. The Dwarves dug through the Misty Mountains. The main gate is located on the west side of the Misty Mountains, and the back gate on the east side is located in the Darkbrook Vale. It is an important passage connecting the east and west of Middle-earth.

Before the Dwarves dug through the earth and awakened the sleeping Balrog, Moria was called Khazad-dûm and was one of the passages for many races traveling between the east and the west.

Even the Elves of Lórien passed through the Passage of Moria, across the Misty Mountains, to Rivendell or the Grey Havens further west.

However, ever since the Balrog destroyed the Kingdom of Khazad-dûm and occupied Moria, this passage has been completely cut off.

To cross the Misty Mountains, one must either travel to the more dangerous High Pass in the north, or go around the Gap of Rohan, the southernmost point of the Misty Mountains.

But such a detour is extremely time-consuming and distance-consuming, and it takes almost several times longer to walk.

With the support of Galadriel and Celeborn, Gandalf did not stay in Lórien for long. He flew north on his broom, preparing to visit Lonely Mountain.

And Dewi remained a few days longer in Lórien.

Arwen took him for a walk in the Golden Forest. The two of them stepped on the soft golden fallen Maulong leaves. Arwen vividly told him the age of each Maulong tree and the trees she had planted herself.

Or on the hill of Cailin Amroth, lying on the lush grass full of blooming flowers of Elano and Nephredil, quietly looking up at the blue sky.

Sometimes I would follow the Nimrodel Creek to the cascading waterfall and listen to the sound of the spring water that sounded like the singing of an elf girl.

Sometimes he would come to Egladir, where the elves were most densely populated, to talk poetry with the elves and listen to stories and legends of the past.

On the top of the hill in Cailin Amroth grew two circles of trees: the outer circle was of trees with white trunks, and the inner circle was of maelstroms with golden leaves. In the center was a tall tree with a white platform suspended between its branches, overlooking the whole Golden Forest.

Dewi and Arwen sat on the platform, feeling the breeze on their faces and gazing at the distant scenery.

The wind blew Arwen's soft black hair, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on her, emitting a holy and beautiful light.

The evening stars in the sky complement the evening star necklace on her chest, as if she is the incarnation of the stars on earth.

Such a scene made Dui unable to take his eyes off it for a long time.

Arwen looked at Deuil, her eyes filled with soft starlight. She said, "Deuil, perhaps you have heard the story of my ancestor Lúthien's love for the human hero Beren?"

Dui shook his head slightly, his eyes softening. “I’m not very clear. Can you explain it to me?”

Arwen looked towards the setting sun in the west, her perfect face filled with calmness and gentleness as she slowly recounted the story of the past.

"Lúthien was the daughter of the Elf King Thingol and the Maiar Melian. She was the most beautiful of all the Elves. Her singing could make the stars pale in comparison, and her dancing was like falling moonlight.

She met and fell in love with the human hero Beren, and together they took the Silmaril from Morgoth's crown, but on their way back they were attacked by the giant wolf Carcharoth.

Beren fought Carcharoth to protect the jewel, and although he eventually killed him, he was mortally wounded and died in Lúthien's arms.

"Lúthien was heartbroken and unwilling to accept her eternal farewell to Beren. She sacrificed her own elven immortality to enter the halls of Mandos (the land of the dead) and moved Mandos, the lord of the underworld, with her singing.

The Valar, taking pity on her deep affection, permitted Beren to be resurrected, but on the condition that Lúthien should give up her Elven immortality and live with Beren as a Man, sharing their mortal fate.

Arwen's gaze was far-reaching, as if she had seen the scene with her own eyes, and her ethereal and beautiful voice carried an incomprehensible heaviness.

"And Lucien agreed without hesitation."

"She chose to become a mortal, spending a short time with the resurrected Beren, and then accepted the fate of human death and bid farewell to the world completely."

Arwen turned her gaze to Dewy.

"Dui'ir, if you were Beren, would you accept Lúthien's decision to give up her immortality and choose to live a short but happy life with him?"

Dui looked at Arwen and shook his head firmly.

"No, I will not accept someone giving up eternal life for me, just for that brief moment of happiness."

Arwen was stunned, and the starlight in her eyes dimmed instantly.

"Because I am greedy, I hope to live with my love forever until the end of the world, to see the sun, moon, stars, the sea and the rocks, until the end of all things!" Dui reached out and held Arwen's hand, smiling very ostentatiously.

He said, "So I don't want my lover to pay the price of eternal life for me. This will make me feel guilty for the rest of my life and I will never be at peace."

"So, Arwen, will you spend every day of the future with me forever, until the end of the world?"

Listening to Dui's confession, Arwen was surprised and happy, with tears in her starry eyes.

But he hesitated and wondered, "Although I also long for eternal companionship, Doir, I can sense that you are different from Gandalf. You have the fate of a human, so how can you live forever in this world?"

Dui winked at her confidently: "Have you forgotten that I am also a wizard? Mortals cannot resist death, but wizards can."

"Really?" Arwen's eyes were full of hope.

"Of course it's true, so being with me doesn't require you to give up your eternal life." Dui assured affirmatively, holding the other's hand, and for a moment he was reluctant to let go.

Dui was not worried about not being able to achieve immortality. Apart from the Phoenix Animagus method, he was not planning to give up the Philosopher's Stone.

Furthermore, if all else fails, he can also learn from Voldemort and create a Horcrux to avoid death.

Although Horcruxes have flaws, they are indeed an effective way to avoid death.

As long as he doesn't go crazy like Voldemort and slice himself into pieces and preserve a Horcrux, he won't go crazy.

Of course, this is only the last resort. He will definitely not create a Horcrux unless it is absolutely necessary.

Feeling the confidence emanating from Dui, although Arwen didn't know what the solution was, she chose to believe him.

She just looked at her hand being held, and her face turned red when she realized it, but she didn't struggle.

The two of them sat on the highest platform of Cailin Amroth, quietly looking at the sunset in the distance. The atmosphere was peaceful and warm.

When they returned to Caras Galadhon, Galadriel and Celeborn were the first to notice the change in the aura between Dui and Arwen.

Galadriel looked at Dui, who was pretending to be normal, with a half-smile and said nothing.

But Celeborn frowned, looked at Dui with a bad look, and then asked Arwen worriedly.

"Arwen, have you really thought it through?"

Arwen nodded, her expression firm and serious.

"Grandfather, I've made up my mind. Duyle is my only and unchanging choice!"

Chapter 160 Agreement

Celeborn felt saddened at the steadfast attitude of his only beloved daughter, whom he and his wife had raised.

"But have you ever considered that there's not only a gap of race between you and him, but also of time? Do you want to give up your eternal life for him and live a short life as a mortal?"

Arwen shook her head when she heard that. The curve of her lips held a smile warmer than the sun, and the tenderness in her eyes almost overflowed.

"Grandfather, you don't have to worry about me. Duil rejected my idea of ​​choosing a mortal fate. He would rather stay with me for a longer time than die with me."

On Dui's side, Galadriel did not speak, but chose to communicate with her mind.

She looked at Dui with a deep smile, her eyes seemed to be able to penetrate his body and see his deepest thoughts.

"Lady Galadriel, don't you object to me and Arwen?" Dui asked in surprise.

Galadriel shook her head, but what she said shocked Dui's heart.

“I often use a water mirror in my garden to explore the past, present, and future. The illusion of the future is always changing. Every person and every event will lead to a different future, so it is not necessarily true.”

"And in Arwen, I saw two different destinies. One was that she chose the fate of a mortal. After briefly gaining everything, she lost it all. In the end, she walked alone into the forest, was buried in an unknown place, and was gradually forgotten."

Speaking of this, sadness flashed in Galadriel's eyes, as if she had already witnessed that scene.

But then the sadness disappeared and she stared at him with surprise.

"And the other one is that she met you."

"The Evening Star has become the Everlasting Star, and its light has become even brighter, shining ever brightly like a star."

Galadriel smiled brightly.

"So why should I object?"

Upon hearing this, Dui also understood Galadriel's thoughts.

The destiny line that Galadriel mentioned about Arwen choosing a mortal should, as expected, be the one that does not include him.

As the granddaughter she raised with her own hands, Galadriel naturally did not want Arwen to give up her immortality and eventually be separated from them by life and death.

The appearance of Dewi changed fate and prevented Arwen from choosing to become a human.

Galadriel naturally prefers Arwen and Dewi to be together.

Thinking of this, Dui suddenly remembered that when they first met in Rivendell, Galadriel very generously gave him the Elessar Emerald, which was originally supposed to be Aragorn's dowry, as a staff.
