“…… Whether it's happiness or misfortune, no matter what kind of choice it is, since it's the result of your own choice, then as long as you don't regret it, it's fine. ”

The faint whisper that belonged to Xiao Lan fell, and Galadriel was silent again for a long time, and then let out a long exhale.

"I underestimate you, and your understanding of fate is no less than mine," said the Empress, "because although there is pain and sorrow in the fate I see, there is also victory and joy, and in order not to let the tragedy that changes part lead to more tragedy, I have existed as a bystander for more than 3,000 years, and have not actively intervened in the future I see, and you have never tried to make such an active choice...... Taught. ”

The Empress's voice was soft, and it was equally straight to the heart, without any sarcasm or contempt, and she was a companion with a lowered posture.

And Xiao Lan, of course, he will not be proud of this, or it means that he can be superior.

No matter how nice he said himself, the Empress may not be nonsense, but a real and very likely fact, and given everything he has been through in the past, he can almost say that "fate" is impossible to see through, and perhaps being a bystander like Galadriel is the real way to do it, just as the secret of never losing in a casino is not to gamble, and the best way not to get involved in cause and effect is not to interfere with the development of cause and effect-

But how easy is it to achieve non-causal integration?

Unless you erase all traces of your own leave in the world, whether it is words, images, sounds, or even memories. To be completely forgotten by the world and all the people in the world, otherwise even if there is only one name left in the world, then it will be worshipped, prayed for, or cursed. It is not true to be free from cause and effect, to be worshipped and not to be an example is karma, to be prayed for and not to be restored is sin, to be cursed and not to respond is sin, all kinds of complex cause and effect relationships are intertwined into chains to capture people firmly, and even turn into a whirlpool to completely swallow those who want to escape.

So in the real sense, Galadriel was just watching. And it can't be regarded as getting rid of cause and effect, as for Xiao Lan herself...... The tangle was even heavier.

"Fate, as the name suggests, is a series of stories that are intertwined with "fate".

People who have been obedient to their fate in the past. In the end, we are worried about right and wrong.

Those who rebelled against fate in the past will eventually come to pay the price.

People who used to look directly at their fate finally asked for reasons.

Man cannot live as he wishes - the story of the struggle with anger and sighs, and the hymn to those who have made up their minds about this reality and let it go.

When you are dazzled and step into the story world of Fate. If this book can take on the role of navigator. As an author, I will be very happy about this.

- Void Abyss"

This is the author's message written by the warrior of love Xuyuan Xuan in "Fate-Zero", and his understanding of fate, which is rated as a pen like a sword in the industry, is Xiao Lan's earliest formation and continues to the present, and the worldline change theory in the Gate of the Destiny Stone, the time and space travel theory in many movies together constitute the main component of his worldview, and many things can also be witnessed from it.

Galadriel is undoubtedly the one who resigned herself to fate in the past, and in order to achieve a better future, she is exactly worried about right and wrong;

Zheng Zhe is undoubtedly the person who rebelled against fate in the past, and in order to reverse his fate, he did not hesitate to change the past and deny himself. He's paid a heavy enough price;

Xiao Lan herself is the person who looked directly at fate in the past, faced fate and completed her fate and never regretted it. But he was already asking for reasons......

Is that last future seen in Galadriel's Mirror, the end of the world shattered with a single swing of the sword, and everything that was attached to the world's existence was drawn into eternal darkness, or was it the end of what could be called the end of the road?

He didn't know, but that wasn't the point.

The reason why the future is so attractive is that it is an unknown that cannot be discovered.

"Truth is undeniably beautiful, but so are lies." The Empress said something that felt philosophical, but seemed inconsequential, and then immediately turned back to the point, "In that case, you must set out early tomorrow morning, for we have just made our choice, and the wheel of fate is once again in motion." ”

"I know you're going to make the wrong people pay, because all stories start like this, but great stories don't end there, and I don't want to interfere with the decisions you've made, but I'm going to give you as much help as I can......"

That evening, the members of the expedition, who had just been dismissed and rested, were summoned to Galadriel's hall again, and the Empress welcomed them with kind words and then directly mentioned that they needed to leave.

"Something happened, and the Lord of the Rings couldn't move forward for the time being." She said: "Rohan is facing a crisis that may be even more powerful than Mordor, and some of you who do not want to move forward can stay here for the time being, but whether they go or not, no one can be sure that there will be a peaceful future, because we are on the verge of the end. Those who wish to stay here can stay until then, until the fate of the world changes, or we call them to assist Rorian in his last needs. ”

There was a moment of silence around them, and then Galadriel looked into everyone's eyes and said, "It seems that you have all made your choice, and I know the answer from your true heart." ”

Zhang Xiaoxue was included in this sentence, and she did not yet have the ability to cover up this thought, so the empress continued, "Besides, I will prepare everything else for you tomorrow, and I wish you a dreamless and good sleep tonight...... Please don't worry too much about tomorrow's journey. Perhaps each of you is already in front of you, but you don't see it. ”

It was the first and last night of the Fellowship of the Ring at Roslorian, but the bare nature of the experience did not weigh the preciousness of the experience.

When they woke up the next morning, they experienced what was probably the first time in their lives, and all the members of the expeditionary force who decided to follow Xiao Lan to the aid of Rohan were given an elven cookie called "Lambas", which only needed to take a bite of the replenished energy to allow a traveler to walk for a whole day or engage in physically demanding activities such as fighting, reduced to a simple version of the "fairy bean" in Dragon Ball.

And each of them, including Kira and the dozen or so members of the Imperial Guard, was given a hooded cloak that seemed to be completely tailor-made, pinned to their body with a silver-trimmed collar pin with green leaves, and the color of the leaves and branches looked like twilight when they were still or when they were under the light source, they turned into a green like leaves, a brown earth-like color at night, and a water-like color under the starlight. Flowing water and rocks, the color of the scenery in the night, and the longing and longing for the land, these cloaks, although not as resistant to swords and bows as armor, are incomparably lightweight, and can be used to conceal their own form by blending in with the scenery.

In addition, except for Sam and Frodo, who were already planning to stay, as well as Zhang Xiaoxue, who wanted to stay by the Lord of the Rings, and Haotian, who felt that it was safer to stay in Lotrolyn, everyone else received gifts from the Empress.

"I will give you a gift that is more precious than a mortal king can give."

This is definitely not empty words, and what they have received is far beyond their own expectations, with the artifact Anduriel. Aragorn of the Flame of the West aside, Leglas, the son of the Elven King of the Dark Forest, Boromo, the son of the regent of Gondor, and the son of Groyin of the Lonely Mountain, the equipment of the three of them is basically the best level in the kingdom except for the king, but the gifts that Galadriel gave to them and several others have a history older than the time when Legolas's ancestors settled in the Dark Forest...... (To be continued......)
