It is said that it will leave soon, but in fact, this so-called fast is only for the elves and even Vera.

If we put it from a human perspective, then in fact, after the war, the Charr still stayed in Middle-earth for a long time.

In the autumn of 373, the Battle of Angban ended, and with the addition of sweeping the tail and visiting the lords in various places, it took the Shire more than a year.

The main reason is that he is not in a hurry, and he chooses to live for a period of time whenever he goes to a place.

In the early spring of 375, the agreed time for the engagement arrived, and all the immediate families of the two families gathered in the magnificent palace of the Thousand Grottoes in Doriath to officially begin the engagement ceremony.

The parents of both sides held a ceremony, and because Eore had long since passed away, his uncle Turgong temporarily took the role of father.

The engagement ceremony of the elves is not complicated, it is just to get together and hold a banquet.

Then, in the presence of many elves, the two parties put the prepared silver rings on the fingers of the betrothed parties, and the ceremony is almost complete.

"It is expected that it will be a few years before we get married, after the completion of King Linton."

At the banquet after the ceremony, the parents of both sides announced the news and invited many relatives present to attend the wedding.

In fact, it will be about five or six years before the completion of the Linton Capital, which is the elves, and if they are replaced by humans, the cucumber dishes will already be cold.

However, the custom of the elves is that they wait at least a year after the engagement is completed before they get married.

This is mainly to give the other party a buffer, and if they are not happy with the upcoming marriage during this time, they can get together at any time and end the marriage by melting the silver ring - the elves are determined and loyal to love, so this is actually very rare.

After the engagement ceremony, the two parties dispersed, and Charles returned to Linton to continue to rule the kingdom, spending his free time studying the art of jewelry and forging metals.

It's just that this kind of research has become hidden.

However, although he no longer imparted his knowledge, and burned many of the previous works of knowledge, it had already been read and practiced by many qualified elves, so the effect of his actions was not very complete.

But that's all the Charles can do.

From that conversation, he had a vague idea of what was to come in Middle-earth, but that knowledge was limited to a rough idea.

He didn't know exactly what was going to happen.

Book burning is a precautionary measure, but even he doesn't know whether it's good or bad.

Therefore, he will not follow the example of a certain "old ancestor" in his memory. First, I can't be ruthless, and second, I'm not sure if it's necessary.

Besides, under the shadow of fate, even if he does that, how much impact will it have on the future?

……

For five years, in addition to traveling back and forth between Linton and Doriath, the Charles visited the west coast every year, separated by a land, where the lord was named Childan, meaning shipbuilder.

This elf exists anciently, and was born at the same time as Singh, and even the two parties are still related by blood, and they can also be related to the Charr.

Like Eor, Chirdan was one of the elves left behind by Singar's disappearance.

However, instead of joining Doriath, he led some of his people to build two port cities on the west coast of the continent.

At this time, the best sailors and the strongest ships of Middle-earth would be gathered in these two ports, and the Charr would be able to bring messengers to the west, but they would also have to help.

……

Five years later, the capital of King Linton was officially inaugurated in Torgaran, deep in the Seven Rivers.

Due to the huge islands in the river, the newly built royal capital occupies a very large area.

When all the current residents of Linton moved in, they didn't even fill a third of its buildings.

Because the island's borders are protected by the raging waters of the Abdulante River, there are only two straight stone bridges to the outside world, one south and one north.

So it didn't build walls.

The night is shrouded, and the water of the Abdul Lante River is rippling.

The white city of the island is lit up and twinkles, and the reflections of thousands of stars on the surface of the surrounding river are like a dazzling star falling to the mortal world.

And because the war to destroy Angban in the north has just ended, the elven army drives out the darkness and brings the light.

Therefore, the king was named Erinel, which means morning star in Sinda.

Or Agrareb, which means glory.

The Quenya name for this meaning is Arkalinqui, and the name is consistent with a star in the sky.

That's why the Noldor praised the city as the city of stars, or stars of glory that fell from the sky.

……

In the spring of the following year, when the City of Stars was founded, a high-profile wedding was prepared to take place in the new royal capital of Linton.

Doriath, Nagoth Lund, Gondolin, Heslum and more, all the elven kings and lords were present.

Naturally, this grand occasion is indispensable to the dwarves who love to join in the fun, as well as the human lords scattered all over the place.

At the same time, not only the various kings and lords, but also some ordinary elves and human dwarven children also came after hearing the news, and spontaneously carried carefully prepared congratulatory gifts.

The scale of this kind of team is huge, and the whole of Beleriand has even experienced a huge "migration" phenomenon as a result.

The many wedding attendees who flocked from all directions directly occupied the originally empty capital of Linton, and even seemed quite crowded.

It took three months from the news to the official opening.

Even many clever traders took the opportunity to start one business after another in this area, and the various races also got to know each other better with this great gathering.

Until the wedding officially begins.

The wedding was still officiated by the elders of both parents, who took vows in the same name and invited Vera to be their witness.

At this time, the spring flowers are blooming, the breeze is gentle, and the bright sun is swaying down from the sky.

In the open-air King's Square, all eyes were on it, and the ceremony was solemnly held.

Dressed in a silver gown, Charles wears a silver crown of twigs, and Lucien, who is wearing an equally elegant white dress and a blue crystal princess crown in front of her, stand face to face and take back the silver rings on their fingers that represent engagement.

They then put a fine gold ring on their right index finger for each other, and then bowed hand in hand to their parents and loved ones, as well as the many people watching the ceremony below.

After the ceremony, the crowded square erupted in a loud burst of applause and cheers like thunder and rain.

At that time, the clouds in the sky converged, the eagles cried melodiously, and the river waves were soothing.

It's as if the whole world is celebrating.

……

In the spring of 381 A.D., the wedding of King Carnier of Linton and Princess Lucien of Doriath took place.

It was a wedding destined to be sung by poets for a long time, and it was the only time in history that dwarves, elves, and human kings met together without any guilt.

It has been hailed by many scholars in later generations as the pinnacle of the Elven Age.

After the wedding, a brief period of peace passed quickly, and chaos and darkness reappeared.
