81 Dancing and Gems
The faint sound of the flute was melodious, accompanied by a faintly melodious singing, filling the banquet hall in the underground palace with a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.
The golden lanterns hanging from the branches of the nearby trees shine on the table, and the dishes on the plate seem to glow.
There were many identical tables around the place, and neatly dressed elven waiters were constantly shuttling along the roads between the tables.
"Father, are we really going to the Kingdom of Linton?"
Picking a grape and swallowing it in his mouth, the young elf whispered to Olophil, who was sitting beside him.
"When I'm done, I'll leave for the East." The gray-haired elf with thick eyebrows nodded, "Remember to say goodbye to your friends." ”
"Why go? How much do you live in Doriath? His tone was melancholy.
"Instead of being a soldier here, it is better to choose a strange country and start a new life, so that there may be new opportunities." Olophil replied, "Besides, I think the Kingdom of Linton will definitely grow. ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at a beautiful long table in the distance of the hall.
In contrast to their remote position near the stream, it was a central point surrounded by hundreds of tables, each of which was one of the few nobles in the kingdom of Doriathus.
On the right side of the table, a handsome young elf with black hair was smiling and whispering something to the silver-haired man beside him.
On the other side of the long table are the king and queen of Doriath.
More than 20 big nobles foiled, and many guys who were not smiling in the past looked very kind when they smiled at this time.
The ancient kingdom was powerful and prosperous, but it also represented solidification and decay in a sense, even among the elves with pure hearts.
So what kind of situation is the new kingdom represented by the young elf who is about the same age as his son?
Olophil is looking forward to it.
This was also an opportunity he suddenly saw after this incident.
"Lord Carnir is very kind." His son, Thranduil, followed his gaze and made such an assessment.
It's just that the bulging cheeks make his words seem vague.
Olophil glanced at him, helpless.
If you don't look at the demonic young king, in fact, his son is already very good among elves of the same age.
It's just that compared to that kind of useful knowledge, what he is better at is eating and drinking.
I love to eat, I can eat, and I can make and eat by hand.
Most elves love musical instruments and traveling, but he prefers to hide at home and study food.
Unlike Olophael, who is bent on improving his status in the clan, this blonde son seems to want to develop in the direction of elven chef.
However, there is no war in Middle-earth now, and Olophil has not been too restrained, but it is said that the conditions of the Linton Kingdom in the east are very simple, and some of the ingredients and materials are obviously impossible to compare with Doriath......
Thinking about this with some ill intentions, his arm was suddenly touched by his son a few times; "Look at my father, Her Royal Highness the princess has come out!"
Olophil perked up when he heard this, and then hurriedly looked away.
Not only him, but the other elven people around him who participated in the banquet all looked away, and at the same time, the sound of conversation in the hall that was not too noisy quickly subsided.
Princess Lucien's dancing was as famous as the voice of the bard Daeron the song, and the inhabitants of Doriath, who had the privilege of seeing it, even generally believed that no elf could dance more beautifully.
Unfortunately, though Her Royal Highness was often in the sight of the grey elves, few people could see her dancing - King Singh did not allow the elves to get too close to his precious daughter.
At this time, you can have the opportunity to see it, and naturally you can't miss the slightest picture.
Countless elves held their breath as they stared at the brown carpeted open space, and in the warm yellow light, Her Royal Highness the Princess, wearing a delicate tiara, bowed gracefully, and then the dance began.
The blue skirt is ethereal, the jet-black long play is sprinkled, and the toes support the body to rotate and beat.
The dance of the elves is mainly feminine, and this softness is placed on Princess Lucian's body, but it is like a starry sky swaying on the surface of the lake, accompanied by the ripples of the crystal lake, which makes people's eyes focus and quietly indulge in it.
The elegant sound of the harp plucking and the crisp and melodious flute embellishment the display of the dance, and the long black hair seems to have boundless magic, and each shake can touch the viewer's eyes like drunken vertigo, and also make them unconsciously capture all their minds by this dance.
And when the pale cyan butterflies emerged from all directions with their wings and danced with the movements of Her Royal Highness the Princess, this intoxication reached a peak.
In the haze, all the viewers completely lost all senses around them, and the only thing in their eyes was the beautiful figure surrounded by butterflies and her soul-stirring dance.
Time passed, and everything else was silent during the banquet.
The halo rotates and the dance is beautiful. Until the sound of the instruments slowly stopped, the hall was still silent and the needles were still falling.
The blonde boy who was still obsessed with food before looked stunned at this time, completely stupid, but it wasn't just him, the younger elves here looked at the figure, and they basically behaved like goose-headed geese.
The mature and steady elves gradually reacted.
So the praise poured out, and the curtsy figure seemed to become the center of the whole world at this moment.
"How? I'll just say that Her Royal Highness is dancing beautifully. Retracting his gaze, the silver-haired green-robed Celeborn's face faded into a trance, and then looked at Charles beside him.
On the other side, the blonde Finrod was sitting next to his sister Galadriel.
The couple had previously traveled to Nagoth Lund, but had returned not long after.
According to the normal process, they actually couldn't touch the Charles, but the accident at the port forced Charles and Finrod to stay here until this point.
Charles nodded at his words, but instead of looking at the graceful figure who thanked him in all directions, he looked down at the wine glass on the table.
This made Celeborn a little dumbfounded, and said to himself, "Is our princess Dorias not as good as this glass of wine?" As a result, after he took a look, he was also stunned.
A glass of special fruit wine that was full before has all disappeared by this time!?
In fact, not only in front of Charles, but also in Kellerborn's own, the elves around him, and even in the goblets on the other tables, all the drinks disappeared without a trace!
The elves who reacted were stunned by this, but then some of them discovered the truth: "It's a butterfly!"
The cry of surprise made all the elves at the banquet look at the group of butterflies that were still floating around the princess.
At this moment, I don't know if it was because of the light or other reasons, those butterflies that originally belonged to the blue color were colorful at this time, and Yu was still standing in the center of the hall, and the princess seemed to be equally amazed that the princess was flying around her, looking extremely beautiful.
The elves thought that these butterflies were already present in the palace, and that they were attracted by Princess Lucien's dancing.
But at this time, when I looked closely, I found that those lifelike little guys were not real entities, but water-colored light and shadow!
So many elves who had not completely recovered from the beautiful dance were shocked by what they saw.
Most of the elves were amazed at how these water-colored butterflies appeared, and a few of them recalled that there seemed to be a light of water quietly emerging from their respective wine glasses, but because all the elves were drawn by the dance at that time, they basically ignored this.
But they didn't think long before their gaze suddenly shifted.
Because these fluttering and spinning butterflies suddenly broke away from the princess in the center of the hall and flew away in a certain direction!
The line of sight followed, and under the light of the lanterns, the wings of hundreds of butterflies floated in the air with bursts of crystal brilliance.
After flying some distance, the glowing little creatures swooped down in mid-air towards the goblet in front of someone like swallows returning to their nests, and the faint sound of water spinning was heard.
Including Princess Lucien dancing, including the king and queen of Doriath, including the many elven nobles at the long table here, all the elves looked at the young elven king with different expressions.
However, the parties are also at a loss for this.
He didn't have time to pay attention to the situation around him, and looked down at a transparent gem slowly condensed from the water glass, and his eyes didn't blink.
The strong talent that can only be exploded in times of crisis is not only triggered in times of crisis......
But what is this gem?
