Chapter 19: Lotslorin
Roselorin
"You didn't choose to go over from the ground, or it was a very right thing to do. "Sarsdom carried Zhao Mian over the Fagon Forest. They had just flown over the vast savannah of the Western Valley of the Rohan Kingdom, and even when they looked down from the sky, they still couldn't see the edges, and no matter which direction you looked, the boundless green always filled your eyes - until the edge of the horizon became angular, and the dark green trees of the Fagon Forest appeared before your eyes like shadows on the earth. "The forest is full of rage, and the spirit of nature is roaring, and he longs to vent his anger on every outsider who walks in his realm. ”
"Indeed, Sarsdom. Zhao Mian nodded, he poked his head out of Sarsdom's back, and squinted slightly at the forest below him - the Fagong Forest swayed, as if the whole forest had a living vitality, countless trees were roaring, they stretched out their branches, as if they wanted to pull down Zhao Mian and Sarsdom who had just flown over their heads, "Do you feel it? This forest is not a simple gathering of trees - they have their own consciousness." Those inexplicable whispers are spreading throughout the forest, and countless trees are making their own voices, and they seem to be talking about a place - wait, let's fly lower, maybe the translator can tell us what kind of place these trees are talking about. ”
"Hurrying is the number one priority right now – but if you insist. Sarsdom said leisurely, his long dragon roar hovering over the forest, countless creatures cowering in their burrows in fear, and the dark shadows that obscured the sky plunged a small part of the forest into complete darkness - Sarsdom flew close to the tops of the trees, careful not to touch any of them, as if they would pull him into them at any moment.
It is not so much a roar of anger as a rebellion in the deepest sorrow. Zhao Mian listened silently to the words of the trees, and Sarsdom seemed to feel the silence of Zhao Mian - or the noise of the whole forest, unknown to mankind - and he slowed down and slowly glided through the air.
The ancient earth, here we are......
Ancient forest, here we are.
Ancient trees, here we are!
Fagon is our name!
We were so prosperous, we stood above Alda, we were his garments!
But...... When the people of Númenor cut down our torsos, we endured;
When Sauron's army burns our limbs, we endure!
The rest of the place is Fagon......
Our last habitat, our only remaining home!
…… The flames burned our people mercilessly,
West, West. West!
Our neighbors clenched their hatchets and lit a bonfire to burn our friends!
Filthy orcs! treacherous Saruman!
Isenger !!
"Isenger ...... The ancient forest is already full of rage, and the fires have burned away your last chances. Zhao Mian patted Sassedom's back and signaled that he could leave, "Those who have attained the Tao will have much help, and those who have lost the Tao will have little help." Saddom, you heard the whispers of those trees just now, do you think......"
"It's an ancient forest, human. Sarsdom interrupted Zhao Mian's words, his tone long and heavy, as if he was remembering something that had passed, "He is even older than me, and the trees that towered in the deepest part have been standing there for thousands of years. They always live quietly, countless creatures thrive under their feet, and for them, mortal wars are always a thing that has passed in the blink of an eye. The ancient trees watched all of this - because none of them were on their side. "Ang~~~!" As if to tell each other something, Sarsdom let out a long groan towards the forest below him, the sound shook the entire Fagon forest, and countless whispers seemed to be awakened at this moment, they were like an old man in a dream who suddenly woke up from his sleep, and the trees stopped whispering at this moment, but they did not stop talking, and the voices like a hurricane gathered together, calling out a name-Esinger!!
"The taste of time, young humanity. Sarsdom whispered, "Ancient times are remembered here, and the whole forest is full of memories - it's a pity, if I were a green dragon or a red dragon, I would have had a good chat with this forest." But now...... Time is slipping away, and the endless sand is falling slowly but surely - it's time to hurry, young humans, and we'll probably need to pick up the pace to catch up. After all, time is not to be wasted!"
Without speeding up the flapping of his wings, Sarstrom was still moving his body so unhurriedly. His massive body shuttled through the clouds, and in the sunlight, the scales reflected the light of quicksand—time, sped up.
The forest of Fagon shrank rapidly on the ground, until it turned into an edge on the horizon again, just as he had emerged from the horizon, and another golden forest, though much smaller than Fagon, was as dazzling in the sun as the crown of the earth, and was unusually beautiful.
Lothlin ...... It's here.
"It seems that the creatures that live here are not friendly to us, humans. Sarsdom disabled his powers, and time changed back to its original form in an instant, and the clouds that had remained around Sarsdom's body due to the distortion of time began to disperse - the dragon's massive body revealed itself from the clouds at this moment, causing all the inhabitants to look at what should have been a sunny sky. The soldiers who defended the place pulled out their arrows and filled their bowstrings with doubts about whether they could shoot through the skin of the huge creature above.
"Oh, you have to understand, Sarsdom. Dragons don't seem to exist in this world, and your presence is a bit too fantastical for them - after all, even elves have become legendary beings for humans, and a behemoth like you must have not appeared for a long time. Well, maybe it goes back to the time of the gods a long, long time ago. Zhao Mian also shook his head a little helplessly, patted Sarsdom's back, motioned for him to hover over this place that looked like a residential area, and shouted loudly, "The elves below, may I ask if in the past few days, have you seen three humans, a forest elf and a dwarf passing by here with four hobbits? I am their friend, my name is Zhao Mian, maybe you have heard my name, can you please tell me? I will wait here for an answer!"
"Oh, damn it! Listen to this voice! That's really Zhao Mian! Oh my God! This is probably the best news we've heard in a while!" Without much explanation, Jin Li's loud voice told Zhao Mian his location for the first time, and he turned his head to look, Jin Li was standing in front of the door of a building, staring blankly at Zhao Mian in the sky - he could only see the huge Sarsdom. Legolas stood beside him, and the elven prince put down his bow and arrow with some silence - he was the first archer to raise a longbow from the dragon that saw the sky, and the second was at his right hand, where Aragorn stood.
"The alarm is lifted! Our last guest - arrived. A clear, but by no means deafening, voice rang out throughout the area, a soft female voice, with some convincing power, she whispered in Zhao Mian's ear, "Please come down, knight." Your friends have been waiting for you for a long time. ”
