Journey of the Infinite Wizard

Chapter 471: The tragedy of kin killing

Fernor made inflammatory speeches in the presence of the Noldor, and in the name of the Valar he swore an oath with the holy mountain Teniquitil--if anyone dares to take or keep the Silmarils that belong to them, no matter who they are, Be it the Valar, demons, elves, or men, including the unborn, if there is any creature, great or small, good or evil, they will pursue it with vengeance and hatred to the ends of the earth, to the ends of the world end date.

It was also because of Ferno's words that the elves, who did not know the existence of humans, heard the news about humans for the first time. Melkor's words of that day began to emerge in their minds, and gradually this doubt spread among the Noldor. They began to think about things in a bad direction, and the actions of the Valar confirmed Melkor's lie. That is true becomes false, and false becomes true! Many of the Noldor believed that the Valar had called them to Valinor because they were afraid of them. And intends to hand over the vast land of Central Continent in the future to weak and short-lived humans! As a result, many elves responded to the common oath made by Ferno and his seven sons!

So swore were Maedhros, and Maglor, and Celegorm, and Crufin and Calanthir, and Androd and Andres, all princes of the Noldor. Many who heard these terrible words could not help feeling terrified. Because once an oath is made, no matter whether it is good or evil, it cannot be repented, and it will tightly entangle the oath-taker or oath-breaker until the end of the world.

Therefore, Fingolfin and his son Turgan refuted Fernor, and the fierce war of words resumed, and the anger brought the two sides to the brink of drawing swords again. Fortunately, Feinarfin, who has always been soft-spoken, spoke up. He tried to calm down the Noldor elves and advised them to stop and think for a while, because once something is done, there is no room for redemption; Si, also persuaded everyone with the same attitude.

But Galadriel, the tall and brave Galadriel, the only woman among the princes who stood debating that day, was impatient to leave. She didn't make any vows, but what Fernor said about the Middle-earth continent had already touched her heart, and she was eager to see the vast and undefended land, and rule a territory according to her own will. Fingolfin's son Fingon also had the same idea with Galadriel. Although he didn't like Fernor at all, what he said also touched his heart; There were Angrod and Aegnor, the sons of Fenarfin, as they always were. However, the few of them remained silent and did not speak against their father.

When Felno began to call the Noldor out in company, the conflict was immediately renewed. Although Ferno persuaded everyone to leave this place, it by no means meant that everyone respected him as king with one heart. Fingolfin and his sons were so popular with the crowd that his family and most of Tirion's inhabitants refused to set out on their way if he did not follow.

At last, therefore, the great multitude of the Noldor divided into two companies, and each went on their path of woe and hardship. Fernor and his followers were the vanguard, but after Fingolfin came more subjects; Fingolfin really set out against his own wisdom, partly because his son Fingon tried to He advocated going, on the other hand, because he didn't want to be separated from his people, they were eager to go, and he didn't want them to be driven by Ferno's rash and reckless rhetoric. Also, he never forgot what he said before the throne of Manwë.

However, when the crowd sang triumphantly and Fernor was about to step out of the city of Tirian, the messenger of Manwë finally arrived and said, "Listen to my advice and don't follow Fernor's stupid decision. Don't go any further Now, this is an evil hour, and the way will lead you into unforeseen abyss of sorrow. There will be no Valar to aid you in your expedition, but they will not hinder you; you should understand this! You came here free, and you are free to go. But you, Fernor son of Finwë, will be exiled for your vows. You will die in pain and regret for the lies that Melkor has sown. one forget.

He is a Valar, as thou hast said; and therefore thy oath shall be utterly in vain, for thou shalt not prevail against any Valar so long as Eya lived, though thy oath should be as Even if it is three times stronger than it is now, you will not be able to defeat him. "

Fernor looked up and laughed, and he spoke, not to the herald, but to the Noldor: "Well, you brave people, you will banish your prince and his son in one fell swoop, Then go back to the days of captivity? If anyone will come with me, I will say to them: Do you have a sad premonition of the future? And we have seen what sorrow is in Aman. In this land, we From joy To sorrow. Now we will try another way; to find joy, or at least freedom, through sorrow."

Then he turned to face the messenger, and shouted, "Tell Manwe Sulimius, great lord of Arda, that if Fernor cannot overthrow Morgoth, at least he has not sat all day mourning, Delay in attacking him. Perhaps as the fire that was set in my soul was more violent than ye know. The damage I inflicted on the great enemy of the Valar would at least make those who sit on the judgment circle Those who can hear it are astonished. Yes, in the end, even they will follow me. Goodbye!" At that moment, Ferno's voice was so loud and powerful that even Valar's herald could not bear it. Then the Noldor bowed to him, that he was fully answered, and went away; and the Noldor obeyed Felnor. So they went on; and the royals of Fernor hastened ahead of the host to the shores of Elendy, and none of them looked back, not even once, to the city of Tirian on Green Qiutuna .

After them came the slower and less hasty multitude of Fingolfin's people; and of these Fingon went first. At the rear came Finarfin and Finrod, and many of the noblest and wisest of the Noldor; The lights disappeared into the thick night. Henceforth, more than all other exiles, they miss the joys they left behind, and some of them, reluctant to part with them, take with them on the road the beautiful objects of their creation; A comfort has also become a burden.

Felnor led the great host of the Noldor northward, for his chief object was to follow the trail of Morgoth. In addition, Quanna at the foot of Mount Teniquetil is close to the outer ring of Arda. The sea in this area is deep and unfathomable, but the further you go north, the sea that separates the two continents becomes narrower and narrower. , the Ariman Wasteland in Aman Continent is almost connected to the coast of Middle-Earth.

When Ferno's mind gradually calmed down, he realized what was going to happen next. There are so many people, they carry a lot of luggage and each of them is a big bag, dragging their families and mouths. Their progress was very slow, and they could not reach Middle-earth at all. The only way to quickly and transport a large number of people and materials is to leave by sea boat. However, the Noldor elves don't know how to build a ship at all. Even if they can build a ship, if they start building a ship from now on, it will inevitably take a lot of time. So, Ferno thought of a way, that is to win over the Teleri elves. If they can win over this group of elves who can build sea ships, then their chances of winning the war against Morgoth will be even greater.

So, he hurried to the port city of Aokulongdi on the coast again! There he repeated his speech, but no matter what he said, the Teleri were unmoved. They are saddened and saddened by the loss of their dearly sympathetic kindred, so their actions are not to help but to dissuade. They are unwilling to lend any ships, and they will not violate Vera's wishes by helping to build ships. As for themselves, they thought of no other place than Valinor to make their home. Likewise, they did not want to enshrine any other people as kings except their king, Ouwei. This made Fernor very annoyed, he rushed to see Ouwei and said unceremoniously: "When your family stepped into Valinor, my family helped you build cities and ports, but when we need help most , You actually chose to refuse! You cowards who hang around all day with nothing, without our help, you are still living in simple and dirty shacks!"

But Owy replied, "We have not forgotten your help, and we have refused you because of the friendship between you and me, and we have discouraged our friends from returning to the right way. Although the Noldor helped us build cities and ports, but shipbuilding did not. Not because of you, but from the master of the sea. We will not sell our ship, it is important to us. As the gem is to the Noldor, it is the brainchild of my people, and we cannot make the same beauty s work!"

Ferno left angrily and came outside the city of Okuolongdi. He calculated in the dark until his men and horses arrived. When he judged that he had enough manpower, he went to Swan Harbor and began to assign people to the ship moored at the port, intending to forcibly seize the ship and set sail. Of course the Teleri could not resist, and they pushed the Noldor who had come forward one after another into the sea. Then, someone drew his sword, and soon there was an uncontrollable fierce fight on the ship, on the embankment of the port, under the lamp, and even under the majestic arch of the port. Three times the men of Fernor were driven back, and many were slain on both sides; but the vanguard of the Noldor, reinforced by the vanguard of Fingon and Fingolfin, came to the harbor and found that war was already at hand, And their own people fell one after another, so they joined the battle indiscriminately without knowing why; in fact, some of them thought that the Teleri were ordered by the Valar to kill the Noldor Let it be intercepted.

In the end, the Teleri were defeated, and the vast majority of the sailors of Okolongdi were viciously murdered. For the Noldor grew fierce in their despair, and the Teleri were not as strong, and most of them had only light bows. So the Noldor took their white ships, and having their oarsmen steered them as best they could, they rowed north along the coast.
