The appearance of black ore completely caused a sensation in Gondolin.
At first, people did not believe that stones could burn, because it was strange, but when the king summoned a group of blacksmiths from the city to collect them and bring back many of them, they demonstrated them publicly, and the crowd was in an uproar.
At this time, winter was approaching, and the problem of heating was not only a concern of the aristocracy, but also of the common people, but the appearance of this ore suddenly solved the problem.
Mining is relatively easy, the burning time is long, and the temperature is still very high......
Compared to the usual fuel, this is simply an artifact.
The people of Turgun were overjoyed and no longer worried about how they would survive this winter. The king's nephew was full of gratitude for the silent creation of this thing.
This also caused Charles to go out during this time, and he was praised by people running up every once in a while.
You know, he didn't have this kind of treatment before, he has been inconspicuous since he called Gangduolin, except for the beginning of a tour of various areas in the city, the rest of the time is basically two o'clock and one line, very low-key.
People don't know anything about his past experiences, except that the king's new nephew is a good Noldor who is diligent in his studies.
At this time, he has become the most talked about elf talent in the city recently.
But all this is not a big deal for the person concerned, and the fuel is just a matter of convenience.
His main focus was on studying his own hair and learning language and writing with Pengoloz.
As a result, the Great Library of Gondolin has become a frequent place for him lately.
The library is built on a pleasant street called the Rose Trail, which is a large space and a quiet location.
The Noldor elves in the city are regular visitors to the library, they come from the blessed lands, and they worship knowledge even more.
On the other hand, the Sinda are a little slack, and they also come, but relatively rarely, and Pengolotz says the Sinda are a sub-ethnic race that seeks romance and freedom, preferring to sing and dance.
He also said that Sinda in Gondolin was already studious, and that before moving into Gondolin, he had come into contact with the Sinda people who trusted his memories more than books.
Most of them don't even know how to write (except for their own names).
Charles didn't know much about this, and although he went to Doriath, he was mostly in contact with Sinda nobles, and he felt fine.
Many of the parchment books in the library were written by a number of scholars, and Charles did not think much of the knowledgeable Pongoloz had contributed to them, given his relative young age.
However, he has one outstanding contribution that is very dazzling - Gangdorin Runivan was created by him, which is more perfect than the outside Runiwen, and there are many obvious differences.
This contribution made him one of the best scholars and the most famous linguists in the region, but he had a higher aspiration for it.
"Writing a chronicle is a long and arduous process, and I may have had an accident before I could finish it, but I hope I can get the job done. Just because the brilliance of civilization is more dazzling than the rays of the sun hanging high in the sky, it should not be forgotten in the shadows of history. ”
……
Daily language learning is conversation, and writing can only be practiced diligently, but also relying on racial talent, the ingenious Charles also made rapid progress in writing.
At the same time, because of the frequent reading of books, his knowledge of elves and certain aspects of the world has become more and more perfect.
Vera's dictation, the descriptions of the creation of Iluvita (as such)......
Vera's discussion and verdict on the legality of the second marriage of Fenway, the first supreme king of Noldor......
Scholars' research and speculation on the rebirth of elves after death, and whether humans will become the terminators and usurpers of the elven age......
As he learned, Charles suddenly discovered that Vera, who was regarded as a god in his mind, was actually more like a parent to the elves, with majesty, but she made mistakes, was revered rather than worshipped, and acted immaturely. Teach knowledge, and make friendships with elves.
Flipping through the history books, he even saw some remarks about the previous High King of the Noldor, Fëanor, openly rebelling against Vera.
Charles didn't know Fëanor because he had been dead for a long time.
But he knew his sons.
When he was in the Land of the Seven Rivers, a few of them came to visit him.
The haughty Calanhill, the sharp-edged Celegon, the smiling tiger-like Kurufin, and Mezlos, who has a severed hand but has an unusually striking demeanor.
They are the defenders of eastern Angban, and they are stationed on the enclosure line all year round, but they are not usually seen.
……
In the morning, he studied and read, and in the afternoon, he immersed himself in polishing gemstones and studying his hair.
At first, Charles was completely confused about this, but gradually he discovered that the power contained in this hair did not seem to be forcibly attached to it, but was accepted into it!
That's right, acceptance.
No matter what method is used, as long as you force it, you can't get into it without damaging the hair. But his hair showed no signs of damage, and Charles could feel that they were intact and stronger thanks to the mind trick.
It also made him shift his mind.
But it fell into a different kind of trouble.
Penetrating and absorbing, it seems that the latter is even more incomprehensible than the former......
He had some headaches, but he didn't forget to hand in his homework.
As his skills deepened, the gems he made became more and more like elven jewelry, and some of the finished products gradually emitted a unique light that shone from time to time, and there was also a force that repelled darkness in them.
Deeper enchantments, however, do not.
His jeweler teacher said that it was very difficult to create jewelry with special abilities, and he only made three or four pieces in his life.
Most of them were given away, but he still had the last one, which was a gem as green as a leaf, deep in color, and all the people he saw were radiant, as if they were much younger.
Because he didn't know how to make it, he just remembered to be very focused, so he didn't have much reference value.
Everyday life is hectic and fulfilling, and every day during dinner is a time of relaxation.
Charles has become accustomed to his current family.
Uncle Turgong who has a set behind the surface, a cousin Izier who seems to be dignified and well-behaved but is actually implicitly rebellious, and a cheap mother who is full of thoughts on her son.
Hidden and safe, there have been no accidents, and it has also contributed to the cheerful and joyful sound and appearance of the elves who live here.
This atmosphere was introduced to the royal family of Gondorin after the Shire entered the city.
The dull and hurried days passed day after day, and everything was running in an orderly manner.
It wasn't until Charles was polishing a diamond that a light shone overhead, casting a hazy shadow on the table through the diamond in his hand, that he suddenly became thoughtful.
Light......
