Sword and Magic and Taxi

The endless rays of light or the endless depths are both two sides of the world. When Ilúvatar, the father of the gods, declared to all the Ainur (angels): I will further unfold the songs that you sing, so that you may clearly see what you have accomplished. As for you, Melkor, you will see The origin of everything is me. Without me, no music can become true. Your changes will only prove that everything I create is more beautiful. At this time, Melkor bowed down respectfully, but there was no thought in his heart. Even with the slightest bend, his thoughts remained firm. As the most powerful of the Ainu, he has more or less the characteristics of other Ainu. He believes that he has enough ability to gaze into the void and is wise enough to create his own music.

Go, go to my world, look after my children, teach them, and learn from them. Ilúvatar waved his hand. Ainur happily entered the world in the music, and Melkor was the first to enter with his head held high.

Some Ainu looked worried, others didn't know why. Ilúvatar did not explain, just smiled and encouraged. At this moment, the big music suddenly sounded again, and the Ainu couldn't help but listen. Soon they discovered that this was both a new sound and an echo of the previous movement. At the end, all the sounds condensed into three powerful notes: dong dong dong.

Ilúvatar flicked his fingers, and a door of light opened from the void, and a ball of light appeared in front of Ainu. They squinted their eyes, but they couldn't see through the light and didn't know who was inside. Ilúvatar smiled and said: You are here, you are here, you go. Then, the light also entered the music.

The Ainu were either confused, worried, or delighted, just to name a few. No need to ask, this is also part of the world. Ilúvatar flipped his wrist slightly, and a gray stone with twenty sides appeared in his palm at some point. The father of the gods looked at the stone, sometimes shaking his head and smiling, sometimes nodding and sighing.

--------I am the dividing line from epic to funny. ps: In order to facilitate reading and understanding, the subsequent names will be based on familiar titles. For example, Oroin is Gandalf. After all, according to time, at this time they were far from being able to obtain the titles given by humans later. ----------------

Zhao Mai was in a daze, and finally recovered from his dizzy state. He was completely entranced while listening to the third movement, and had only a vague impression of what happened next. He vaguely remembered stopping the car, getting out, and then...

Looking to the left and right, he was standing among a group of elves - with long flowing hair and ethereal clothes - but he himself had a bald head and stood out unusually. The elves lined up in a single file, walking slowly up the mountain along the spiral steps. On the top of the mountain, a splendid palace is emitting light like the sun, and magnificent music surrounds it, attracting everyone to go.

The elves walked and talked, looking happy. They also talked to Zhao Mai and regarded him as one of them. Zhao Mai found that he could understand their language and use it fluently. In order to find out what happened, he asked tentatively: What are your plans for the next step?

I haven't fully thought about it yet. Every Vera is a learned person, and we can all learn a lot from them. An elf next to Zhao Mai said: I think Nina's music is the most beautiful. , full of emotion. I might go to her to learn.”

Other elves also talked about their choices. Zhao Mai gradually understood that they were heading to the palace of the fourteen gods to choose one of them to become their apprentice. Arda has a vast territory and complex environment, and the gods cannot complete the construction work solely by relying on their own words.

Zhao Mai inspected himself as he walked. His strength was intact and everything was still there. He summoned the phone and it came to his hand. It showed that his car was in a distant place, constantly approaching him, but he didn't know how long it would take to arrive. ‘Where have the others gone? ’ He tried to enter the green dream to look for Xiao Hua, but found that there was no green dream to enter at all.

Everything has not started to grow yet, the natural force is just pure energy, and there is no environment to rely on. Looking into the distance from the winding road, one can already see the endless gray land shrouded in shadow. Only the place under their feet was shrouded in light, and only here was life.

He looked carefully at the elves around him and finally saw through their true nature. Although they take the form of elves, they are the condensation of divine power, not children conceived naturally. They took on the form of elves simply because it was one of the images Ilúvatar created for his children in imitation of himself. They like the graceful elves, and they also like the bare-headed Zhao Mai, because some humans also look like this.

These spirits are Maia, the servants of God. Not all Maiya have names, Zhao Mai does not. Whether he called himself Mike Longhou or directly called Zhao Mai, Maiya said he liked it but couldn't understand him. The name of a true Maia represents something about them, and to a large extent the soul. After discussion, the Maiyas thought that naming themselves was a very interesting thing, so they started learning it one after another. Some Maia who originally had names also joined in. They called their original names their real names, and their later names were their new names.

The elf who spoke to Zhao Mai before was called Kurunel. His voice was beautiful and reached people's hearts. He went to Manwë, the God of Air, King of the Andals.

Manwë asked, Clunel, what do you want to learn?

I want to learn how to manage, and I also want to learn how to work. Management and working are the most important things in the world. I want to follow your teachings.

So, Curunair (Saruman) became Manwe's student. (Do not worry, if you are a party to research, things will happen later.)

It's Zhao Mai's turn next. He did not answer Manwe's question, but asked: I can't find my companions, can you help me find them?

You need a road to move from confusion to gain, and the best road builder among us is Aulë. The road you climb the mountain was built by his hands. You should become his student.

But why don't you tell me where they are? I just want to know this. Zhao Mai asked.

Manwei stopped, looked at Zhao Mai, and then smiled: It's you. He paused, and then said: Only the immortal can get here, and only the only person can get here. You should ask Auli Learn and build a path to welcome them.
