These are High Elves. They spoke the name of Elbereth. said Frodo in amazement. Few of that fairest folk are ever seen in the Shire. Not many now remain in Middle-earth, east of the Great Sea. This is indeed a strange chance. 80 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS The hobbits sat in shadow by the wayside. Before long the Elves came down the lane towards the valley. They passed slowly, and the hobbits could see the starlight glimmering on their hair and in their check this out. They bore no lights, yet as they walked a shimmer, like the light of the moon above the rim of the hills before it rises, seemed to fall about their feet. They were now silent, and as the last Elf passed he turned and looked towards the hobbits and laughed. Hail, Frodo. he cried. You are abroad late. Or are you perhaps lost. Then he called aloud to the others, and all the company stopped and gathered round. This is indeed wonderful. they said. Three hobbits in a wood at night. We have not seen such a thing since Bilbo went away. What is the meaning of it. The meaning of it, fair people, said Frodo, is simply that we seem to be going the same way as you are. I like walking under the stars. But I would welcome your company. But we have no need of other company, and hobbits are so dull, they laughed. And how do you know that we go the same way as you, for you do not know whither we are going. And how do you know my name. asked Frodo in return. We know many things, they said. We have seen you often before with Bilbo, though you may not have seen us. Who are you, and who is your lord. asked Frodo. I am Gildor, answered their leader, the Elf who had first hailed him. Gildor Inglorion of the House of Finrod. We are Exiles, and most of our kindred have long ago departed and we too are now only tarrying here a while, ere we return over the Great Sea. But some of our kinsfolk dwell still in peace in Rivendell. Come now, Frodo, tell us what you are doing. For we see that there is some shadow of fear upon you. O Apex queueable vs batch People. interrupted Pippin eagerly. Tell us about the Black Riders. Black Riders. they said in low voices. Why do you ask about Black Riders. Because two Black Riders have overtaken us today, or one has done so twice, said Pippin; only a little while ago he slipped away as you drew near. The Elves did not answer at once, but spoke together softly in their own tongue. At length Gildor turned to the hobbits. We will not speak of this here, he said. We think you had best come now with us. It is not our custom, but for this time we will take you on our road, and you shall lodge with us tonight, if you will. O Fair Folk. This is good fortune beyond my hope, said Pippin. Sam please click for source speechless. I thank you indeed, Gildor Inglorion, said T HR EE IS C OMPAN Y 81 Frodo bowing. Elen sı´la lu´menn omentielvo, a star shines on the hour of our meeting, he added in the High-elven speech. Be careful, friends. cried Gildor laughing. Speak no secrets. Here is a scholar Apex queueable vs batch the Ancient Tongue. Bilbo was a good master. Hail, Elf-friend. he said, bowing to Frodo. Come now with your friends and join our company. You had best walk in the middle so that you may not stray. You may be weary before we halt. Why. Where are you going. asked Frodo. For tonight we go to the woods on the hills above Woodhall. It is some miles, but you shall have rest at the end of it, and it will shorten your journey tomorrow. They now marched on again in silence, and passed like shadows and faint lights: for Elves (even more than hobbits) could walk when they wished without sound or footfall. Click the following article soon began to feel sleepy, and staggered once or twice; but each time a tall Elf at his side put out his arm and saved him from a fall. Sam walked along at Frodos side, as if in a dream, with an expression on his face half of fear and half of astonished joy. The woods on either side became denser; the trees were now younger and thicker; and as the lane went lower, running down into a fold of the hills, there were many deep brakes of hazel on the rising slopes at either hand. At last the Elves turned aside from the path. A green ride lay almost unseen through the thickets on the right; and this they followed as it wound away back up the wooded slopes on to the top of a shoulder of the hills that stood out into the Apex queueable vs batch land of the river-valley. Suddenly they came out of the shadow of the trees, and before them lay a wide space of grass, grey under the night. On three sides the woods pressed upon it; but eastward the ground fell steeply and the tops of the dark trees, growing at the bottom of the slope, were below theirfeet. Beyond, the low landslay dim and flat underthe stars. Nearer at hand a few lights twinkled in the village of Woodhall. The Elves sat on the grass and spoke together in soft voices; they seemed to take no further notice of the hobbits. Frodo and his companions wrapped themselves in cloaks and blankets, and drowsiness stole over them. The night grew on, and the lights in the valley went out. Pippin fell asleep, pillowed on a green hillock. Away high in the East swung Remmirath, the Netted Stars, and slowly above the mists red Borgil rose, glowing like a jewel of fire. Then by some shift of airs all the mist was drawn away like a veil, and there leaned up, as he climbed over the rim of the world, the Swordsman of the Sky, Menelvagor with his shining belt. The Elves all burst into song. Suddenly under the trees a fire sprang up with a red light. 82 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS Come. the Elves called to the hobbits. Come. Now is the time for speech and merriment. Pippin sat up and rubbed his eyes. He shivered. There is a fire in the hall, and food for hungry guests, said an Elf standing before him. At the south end of the greensward there was an opening. There the green floor ran on into the wood, and formed a wide space like a hall, roofed by the boughs of trees. Their great trunks ran like pillars down each side. In the middle there was a wood-fire blazing, and upon the tree-pillars torches with lights of gold and silver were burning steadily. The Elves Apex queueable vs batch round the fire upon the grass or upon the sawn rings of old trunks. Some went to and fro bearing cups and pouring drink; others brought food on heaped plates and dishes. This is poor fare, they said to the hobbits; for we are lodging in the greenwood far from our halls. If ever you are our guests at home, we will treat you better. It seems to me good enough for a birthday-party, said Frodo. Pippin afterwards recalled little of either food or drink, for his mind was filled with the light upon the elf-faces, and the sound of voices so various and so beautiful that he felt in a waking dream.
But that is long since. Tis many lives of Men since any passed to or fro between us. Now of late we have learned that the Apex legends xbox series x fps has been among them, and esries are gone over to Him, or back to Him they were ever ready to His will as have so many also in the East. I doubt not that the days of Gondor are numbered, and the walls of Minas Tirith are doomed, so great is His strength and malice. But still we will not sit idle and let Him do all as He would, said Mablung. These cursed Southrons come now marching up the ancient roads to swell the hosts of the Dark Tower. Yea, up the very roads that craft of Gondor made. And they go ever more heedlessly, we learn, thinking that the power of their new master is great enough, so that the think, steam deck 30fps input lag you shadow Apex legends xbox series x fps His hills will protect them. We come to teach them another lesson. Great strength of them was reported to us some days ago, marching fp. One of their regiments is due by our reckoning to pass by, some time ere noon up on the road above, where it passes through the cloven way. The road may Apex legends xbox series x fps, but they shall not. Not while Faramir is Captain. He leads now in all perilous 660 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS ventures. But his life is charmed, or fate spares him for some other end. Their talk died down into a listening silence. All seemed still and watchful. Sam, crouched by the edge of the fern-brake, peered out. With his keen hobbit-eyes he saw that many more Men were about. He could see them stealing up the slopes, singly or in long files, keeping always to the shade of grove or thicket, or crawling, hardly visible in their brown and green raiment, through grass and brake. All were hooded and masked, and had gauntlets on their hands, and were armed like Faramir and his companions. Before long they had all Apez and vanished. The sun rose till it neared the South. The shadows shrank. I wonder where that dratted Gollum is. thought Sam, as he crawled back into deeper shade. He stands a fair chance of being spitted for an Orc, or of being roasted by the Yellow Face. But I fancy hell look after himself. He lay down beside Frodo and began to doze. He woke, thinking that he had heard horns blowing. He sat up. It was now high noon. The guards stood alert and tense in the shadow of the Apex legends xbox series x fps. Suddenly the horns rang out louder and beyond mistake from above, over the top of the slope. Sam thought that he heard cries and wild shouting also, but the sound was faint, as if it came out of some distant cave. Then presently the noise of fighting broke out near at hand, just above their hiding-place. He could hear plainly the ringing grate of steel on steel, the clang of sword on iron cap, the dull beat of blade on shield; men were yelling and screaming, and one clear loud voice was calling Gondor. Gondor. It sounds like a hundred blacksmiths all smithying together, said Sam to Frodo. Theyre as near as I want them now. But the noise grew closer. They are coming. cried Damrod. See. Some of the Southrons have broken from the trap and are flying from the road. There they go. Our men after them, Apex legends xbox series x fps the Captain s. Sam, eager to see more, went now and joined the guards. He scrambled a little way up into one of the larger of the bay-trees. For a moment he caught a glimpse of swarthy men in red running legdnds the serries some way off with green-clad warriors leaping after them, hewing them down as they fled. Arrows were thick in the air. Then suddenly straight over the rim of their sheltering bank, a man fell, crashing through the slender trees, nearly on top of them. He came to rest in the baldurs gate character list a few feet away, face downward, green arrow-feathers sticking from his neck below a golden collar. His scarlet robes were O F H ERBS Apex legends xbox series x fps ND STEWE D RA BBIT 661 tattered, his corslet of overlapping brazen plates was rent and hewn, his black plaits of hair braided with gold were drenched with blood. His brown hand seires clutched the hilt of a broken sword.
