The Bard at Hogwarts

Chapter 78: The Elven King, Thranduil (revised)

Although the elves' disarming behavior made the dwarves very angry, the situation was stronger than the people, and with Thorin's comfort, they could only dare to be angry but dare not speak out.

However, there is also a good side. With the guidance of the elves, we have never encountered the minions of the dark forces along the way.

Woodland Kingdom.

From the 1050th year of the Third Era, when Sauron's shadow descended on Amon Lanc, evil creatures began to breed and multiply in the green forest. The once green forest gradually turned into the dark jungle it is today.

Since then, the Elf King Thranduil has led his people to retreat to the north side of the Jungle River, completely abandoning the vast woodland near the Misty Mountains in the south.

Although this matter has been criticized in Middle-earth, it is undeniable that this move greatly reduced the casualties of the woodland elves.

Perhaps this was the real loss of land, otherwise the woodland elves would not have organized a huge army in the subsequent Battle of the Five Armies.

What is regrettable is that a wrong war caused heavy losses to the woodland elves, and the strength accumulated over thousands of years was also exhausted.

But now that he is here, Ino also intends to avoid this tragedy.

And he also thought about it. As the starting point of the entire war, the dazzling white gemstone necklace that Thranduil cherished, even if it was stolen, he would still steal that dazzling necklace.

It's not about position, it's just visual perception.

After all, human nature is like this. We yearn for beautiful things. Compared with elegant and beautiful elves and men, who would care about sloppy dwarves.

What's more, unlike other elves, woodland elves are innately talented in art and music. Most of the music and poetry in Middle-earth are also from woodland elves.

They are good at creating, love music, and have beautiful voices. They can basically sing wherever they go. This also gives woodland elves a different kind of charm among the entire elven community.

For a bard, this is a definite plus.

Thinking and walking on the road.

Under the leadership of Legolas, everyone crossed an exquisite stone bridge and arrived at what is now the new capital of the woodland elves.

It is better to say that it is a capital city than a huge and heavily guarded fortress. The elves abandoned the previous art and chose to use thick granite to build the city.

The towering city walls and smooth polished walls, coupled with the stone bridge not far away, form a natural three-layer defense line.

But this is just the surface. The place where the elves really live is underneath the fortress. They seem to have tapped into the talents of the dwarves and dug holes underground to build a huge and complex underground city.

Under the leadership of Prince Legolas, everyone entered the fortress and passed through the winding tunnels, finally arriving at the palace of the Woodland Kingdom.

Thranduil.

When he came to Middle-earth from Aman at the beginning of the second era, he was only over 6,000 years old, so he was considered a young Elf King.

As everyone arrived at the palace, Ino also saw Thranduil's face clearly.

He has the same flowing golden hair as Legolas, but the difference is that Thranduil wears a crown made of red leaves and berries.

Such a simple crown seems to be telling the woodland elves' love for the forest and nature.

Between the long golden hair is a pair of deep and indifferent eyes, as if they don't care about anything in the world.

If Legolas had been described as handsome before, then the Elf King Thranduil in front of him could only be described as beautiful.

Beauty is never a special word for girls, because it can also be used to describe the temperament of men, the kind of beauty that is in harmony with nature.

Describing the beauty of Thranduil is like people praising the beautiful scenery of nature, which is not obtrusive at all.

"My son told me that a group of dwarves came from the west, and surprisingly there was even a human wizard!"

Thranduil looked at the people in the palace indifferently, ignoring the anger of the dwarves. Only when his eyes swept over Ino, there was a hint of inquiry and doubt in his eyes.

"Put these dwarves in the dungeon and let them sober up."

Thranduil ordered to the elven warriors on the side. Although he recognized the heir to the former King Under the Mountain at first sight, he did not look at Thorin.

After a period of turmoil, the entire underground palace regained its former tranquility.

Looking at the Elf King not far away, Ino thought for a while and then slowly spoke:

"I think your majesty knows the purpose of our trip. For that ancient legend, Thorin, the descendant of the Turin dwarves, is here to regain the lonely mountain and restore the glory of the king under the mountain."

For an elf who has lived for thousands of years, any words are meaningless. Frankness is the only way to communicate.

Sure enough, Thranduil nodded slowly in approval: "What are you going to do about that entrenched evil dragon?"

"Maybe they want to kill them, but who knows, I just help them get out of the jungle."

At this moment, Ino expressed his truest thoughts.
