The Journey of the Infinite Wizard

Just as Jiang Ning was heading to the east, in the far west, the elves also launched a massive war, which lasted for about four hundred years. This was the siege of Angband. 60 years after the sun rose

, Morgoth once again attacked the Noldor elves who had been scattered in Beleriand. At that time, the north was shaking, the cracks in the earth and the Iron Mountains were spitting fire, and the Orcs were overwhelming across the plains of Ardgarland. They broke through

The main force reached the Pass of Sirion and the Gap of Maglor on the east side and attacked the Dorthonian Highlands. However, Maedhros and Fingolfin attacked the Dorthonian enemy forces from the east and west sides respectively, and crossed Ardgar.

They pursued them in the plains of Lanland, and eventually annihilated them all. The enemy who invaded Beleriand was also swept away by other Noldor elves. Because the war was so complete, it was called Dagor Aglareb.

"Battle of Glory".

Although the Noldor elves achieved an unprecedented victory and fought all the way to the city of Angband, they also exposed their own shortcomings. That is, they had too few troops and faced the strong walls of Angband and the extremely difficult and dangerous terrain.

Due to the steep terrain, the Noldor elves were unable to attack Angband in one go. Instead, they chose to surround Angband and maintained it for nearly four hundred years.

Of these, in the west were Fingolfin and Fingon, who guarded the passage from Ered Wethryn to Hithlum in Balad Ethel. Finrod and Orodreath, in Minasti

Lyth (not the capital of Gondor) watched over the Pass of Sirion, and the area from the northern slopes of Dorthonion to Agron was watched over by Angrod and Aegnor.

As for the east, the sons of Fernor were responsible for the surveillance. Celegorm and Curufin guarded the area between the Aros and Kelon rivers. Maedhros built a fortress on Mount Himrin to protect the mountain.

The northern defense line and the plains between the rivers Kyron and Galion, Maglor monitors the mountains north of the Galion, and Caranthir stands in the shadow of Eredluin.

They used their cavalry to watch the plains of Ardgarland and the passes all year round, thereby confining Morgoth in his strongholds. After that, peace lasted for about four hundred years. During these years of peace, Ard

Dense green grass grew in the plains of Gloria, and even the gravel in front of Angband's gate sprouted green seedlings.

However, Angband will not sit still and be trapped underground. He knows very well that the population of the elves is not enough to capture the strong fortress of Angband. In addition, he has many evil dark creatures under his command, Morgoth

He is confident. While using his own eyes to pay attention to the things of the elves, he is constantly cultivating his army and new species in the dark underground. These are what he uses as

The evil legion, nourished by evil, darkness and bloodlust, respects the orders of Morgoth. At the same time, there are tunnels extending in all directions underground in Angband, and these have become his incubation places. Many of them will be familiar in the future.

All the monsters were created one by one by Morgoth here. Orcs, wargs, trolls, balrogs and terrifying dragons are all masterpieces created by Morgoth.

In the north and east of the world, even in the desolate and evil lands, there are still evil species spread by Morgoth. Although the Valar originally broke through Morgoth's lair of Utamo in the north of Quevienen!

,

The Valar did not wipe out the evil creatures under Morgoth. They saw the opportunity at that time and had already hid deep underground. Even the Valar had never discovered their traces and figures. These evil dark creatures,

still

However, under the control of Morgoth, under his command, these evil creatures have been slowly developing and growing. Therefore, Morgoth does not think there is anything to panic about Angband being surrounded by the Noldor elves.

He didn't care at all. Although the Noldor elves wiped out an entire army, Morgoth didn't feel bad. To him, these things were insignificant trash fish and cannon fodder. As long as he had enough time, he could cultivate them.

Send out more troops!

After experiencing a glorious battle, the Noldor elves were no longer able to continue attacking Morgoth. Apart from surrounding the Angband Fortress and besieging it, the elves could not continue the attack at all. In addition to sending cavalry for surveillance day and night, there were

Some Noldor elves broke away from the team and began to go south to build their own homes and cities. For example, during the siege, Turgon's tribe left Nephrast and went to build

Gondolin. Some other elven cities - Brithombar and Eglarest built by the Sindar elves of Falas were renovated, and Nargothrond under Finrod was also built at this time. Encircled

It was not complete, so Morgoth was still able to send many orc troops to harass the elves, such as attacking Hithlum; but the Noldor elves were able to recharge their batteries because these armed actions did not pose a serious threat.

The Noldor elves did not know that Morgoth's evil gaze was staring at them all the time. Now, they turned to the light, but Morgoth also successfully turned to the dark. Although the elves took the initiative

power, but also lost the initiative. And because of the prerequisite for encirclement, the united Noldor elves once again inevitably split within themselves.

In beautiful Doriath, the home of Eru Thingol, Melian and Galadriel often spoke of Valinor and the joys of the past; but after speaking of the dark hour of the death of the Two Sacred Trees, Galadriel always

She kept silent and stopped talking. Once, Melian said: "I can see from you and your people

I feel a kind of sadness and disaster that is shrouded, but I don’t know what it is. What has happened or is happening in the West, I can neither know through my thoughts nor see it through images, because there is a large shadow covering it.

It covers the entire continent of Aman and even extends to the sea. Why don’t you tell me more?”

How could Galadriel dare to say this? This matter was not honorable. She was not only hostile to her own people, but also punished and cursed by Vala. Therefore, she tried to avoid it as much as possible. "The sorrow and disaster have passed," Galadriel said.

Trail said: "Now I just want to talk about the joy that remains here, and don't want to be disturbed by memories. Because although everything seems full of hope now, there may be new sorrows and disasters to come."

Then Melian looked at her and said, "I do not believe what was said at first, that the Noldor was a messenger from the Valar, who came to us in our hour of need. For they said nothing about the Valar;

The king did not bring any message to Thingol, whether it was a message from Manwë or Ulmo. They did not even bring greetings from Owwe, Thingol's brother, and

He brought news of the Teleri people across the sea. Not even news of the primitive elves Yinnweir. Galadriel, please tell me, what is the reason for the noble Noldor to be driven away?

Exiles from Aman? What evil is hidden in the sons of Fernor that makes them appear so arrogant and cruel? Is what I said close enough to the truth?"

Galadriel was secretly surprised by Melian's analysis and wisdom, so her answer was... "Very close." Galadriel said: "Except that we left voluntarily instead of being expelled by Valar. We

Regardless of the opinions of the Valar, he came at great risk for one purpose only - to avenge Morgoth and retrieve what he had stolen."

Then Galadriel told Melian of the Silmarils, and of the murder of King Finwë of the Noldor in Formenos;

She still hasn’t said a word about the boat incident

.But Melian said, "Now you tell me a little more, but I see more. You want to leave behind the darkness of the long road from Tirion, but I see in it

There are evils in them, and Thingol must know them."

"Perhaps," said Galadriel, "but not from me."

Even if Galadriel has never heard of it, she knows that too much talk leads to misunderstanding. Therefore, she began to change the subject, shifting the target from the Noldor elves to the Silmarillion, and also told the story of Elu

·Thingol's kinsman (Elwë), the original elf Ininwil, was the first to create the Silmarillion.

.This greatly increased Melian's interest. Although she knew clearly that Galadriel was changing the subject, she was helpless as she could not get any more information. However, for this person in El

Melian was still extremely interested in the news about Yiningweil, the primitive elf who had such a great reputation among the Da tribe.

In fact, this person's reputation is very great. According to the news she heard from the Eldar people and her husband Eru Thingol, this primitive elf is far more popular among the Eldar people than Valar.

Prestige. The Eldar have extremely deep feelings and affection for this original elf who led the way. Melian has heard news about this original elf from her husband many times. She knows that her husband

I have immense admiration for this elder brother-like figure.

and worship. And from Galadriel, she learned even more astonishing information. The original creator of the Silmarillion was also made by this same race. She also heard many rumors from Galadriel, and got

Knowing that Teleri, who was king in Valinor and had become a member of his own race, became more like a strange race, Melian later learned many stories and anecdotes about Yiningvale from Galadriel.

, she quickly told her husband the news!

Elu Thingol was very happy when he heard this. He said: "If Yiningweil were here, we wouldn't have to face so many troubles and difficulties."

"Oh?" Melian was very curious, and she said: "Does this Yiningweil have the ability to reverse the predicament and get rid of the unfavorable crisis?" Facing his wife's curious and questioning statement, Elu Thingol smiled slightly and accepted

Sitting on the chair side by side with his wife, he said proudly: "In my eyes, there is nothing that Yiningville cannot do. From the day Quavier woke up, he has been a leader and a guide."

identity belt

He leads us to survive. He teaches the people various knowledge, builds strong fences and houses, trains us in martial arts to protect ourselves, and drives out the evil that hunts and wanders around. His status in my heart has long surpassed that of Valar.

The irreplaceable and incomparable great Kundi!" After that, he sighed, "It's a pity that Yiningweil doesn't know our news, otherwise, he will definitely come to help us!"

Melian looked at her husband tenderly, and was extremely curious about the original elf he mentioned. She comforted him, "Don't worry, don't be sad, those painful days will definitely pass. I have a premonition.

, it won’t be long before he comes to the West.”

"Is this true?"

Melian's beautiful face smiled lightly and nodded affirmatively, "My dear, this is of course true. You don't have to worry that I will deceive you. I have a very strong premonition about this feeling, and it will definitely come true!"
