I have, maybe, the power to heal her body, and to recall her from the dark valley. But to what she will awake: hope, or forgetfulness, or despair, I do not know. And if to despair, then she will die, unless other healing comes which I cannot bring. Alas. for her deeds have set her among the queens of great renown. Then Aragorn stooped and looked in her face, and it was indeed white as a lily, cold as frost, and hard as graven stone. But he bent and kissed her on the brow, and called her softly, saying: Eowyn ´ ´Eomunds daughter, awake. For your enemy has passed away. She did not stir, but now she began again to breathe deeply, so that her breast rose and fell beneath the white linen of the sheet. Once more Aragorn bruised two leaves of athelas and cast them into steaming water; and he laved her brow with it, and her right arm lying cold and nerveless on the coverlet. 868 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS Then, whether Aragorn had indeed some forgotten power of Westernesse, or whether it was but his words of the Lady Eowyn that ´ wrought on them, as the sweet influence of the herb stole about the chamber it seemed to those who stood by that a keen wind blew through the window, and it bore no scent, but was an air wholly fresh and clean and young, as if it had not before been breathed by any living thing and came new-made from snowy mountains high beneath a dome of stars, or from shores of silver far away washed by seas of foam. Awake, Eowyn, ´ Lady of Rohan. said Aragorn again, and he took her right hand in his and felt it warm with life returning. Awake. The shadow is gone and all darkness is washed clean. Then he laid her hand in Eomers ´ and stepped away. Call her. he said, and he passed silently from the chamber. Eowyn, Eowyn. cried Eomer amid his tears. But she opened her ´ ´ ´ eyes and said: Eomer. ´ What joy is this. For they said that you were slain. Nay, but that was only the dark voices in my dream. How long have I been dreaming. Not long, my sister, said Eomer. But think no more on it. ´ I am strangely weary, she said. I must rest a little. But tell me, what of the Lord of the Mark. Alas. Do not tell me that that was a dream; for I know that it was not. He is dead as he foresaw. ´ ´ He is dead, said Eomer, but he bade me say farewell to Eowyn, dearer than daughter. He lies now in great honour in the Citadel of Gondor. That is grievous, she said. And yet it is good beyond all that I dared hope in the dark days, when it seemed that the House of Eorl was sunk in honour less than any shepherds cot. And what of the kings esquire, ´ the Halfling. Eomer, you shall make him a knight just click for source the Riddermark, for he is valiant. He lies nearby in this House, and I will go to him, said Gandalf. ´Eomer shall stay here for a while. But do not speak yet of war or woe, until you are made whole again. Great gladness it is to see you wake again to health and hope, so valiant a lady. ´ To health. said Eowyn. It may be so. At least while there is an empty saddle of some fallen Rider that I can fill, and there are deeds to do. But to hope. I do not know. Gandalf and Pippin came to Merrys room, and there they found Aragorn standing by the bed. Poor old Merry. cried Pippin, and he ran to the bedside, for it seemed to him that his friend looked worse and a greyness was in his face, as if a weight of years of sorrow lay on him; and suddenly a fear seized Pippin that Merry would die. Do not be afraid, said Aragorn. I came in time, and I have called T Click HO U SES O F HEALI NG 869 him back. He is weary now, and grieved, and he has taken a hurt like the Lady Eowyn, ´ daring to smite that deadly thing. But these evils can be amended, so strong and gay a spirit is in him. His grief he will not forget; but it will not darken his heart, it will teach him wisdom. Then Aragorn laid his hand on Merrys head, and passing his hand gently through the brown curls, he touched the eyelids, and called him by name. And when the fragrance of athelas stole through the room, like the scent of orchards, and of heather in the sunshine full of bees, suddenly Merry awoke, and he said: I am hungry. What is the time. Past supper-time now, said Pippin; though I daresay I could bring you something, if they will let me. They will indeed, said Gandalf. And anything else that this Rider of Rohan may desire, if it can be found in Minas Tirith, where his name is in honour. Good. said Merry. Then I would like supper first, and after that a pipe. At that his face clouded. No, not a pipe. I dont think Ill smoke again. Why not. said Pippin. Well, answered Merry slowly. He is dead. It has brought it all back to me. He said he was sorry he visit web page never had a chance of talking herb-lore with me. Almost the last thing he ever said. I shant ever be able to smoke again without thinking of him, and that day, Pippin, when he rode up to Isengard and was so polite. Smoke then, and think of him. said Aragorn. For he was a gentle heart and a great king and kept his oaths; and he rose out of the shadows to a last fair morning. Though your service to him was brief, it should be a memory glad and honourable to the end of your days. Merry smiled. Well then, he said, if Learn more here will provide what is needed, I will smoke and think. I had some of Sarumans best in my pack, but what became of it in the battle, I am counter strike 1.6 server surf_ski_2 I dont know. Master Meriadoc, said Aragorn, if you think that I have passed through the mountains and the realm of Gondor with fire and sword to bring herbs to a careless soldier who throws away his gear, you are mistaken. If your pack has not been found, then you must send for the herb-master of this House. And he will tell you that he did not know that the herb you desire had any virtues, but that it is called westmansweed by the vulgar, and galenas by the noble, and other names in other tongues more learned, and after adding a few half-forgotten rhymes that he does not understand, he will regretfully inform you that there is none in the House, and he will leave you to reflect on 870 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS the history of tongues. And so now must I. For I have not slept in such a bed as this, since I rode from Dunharrow, nor eaten since the dark before dawn. Merry seized his hand and kissed it. I am frightfully sorry, he said. Go at once. Ever since that night at Bree we have been a nuisance to you. But it is the way of my people to use light words at such times and say less than they mean. We fear to say too much. It robs us of the right words when a jest is out of place. I know that well, or I would not deal with you in the same way, said Aragorn. May the Shire live for ever unwithered. And kissing Merry he went out, and Gandalf went with him. Pippin remained behind. Was there ever anyone like him. he said. Except Gandalf, of course. I think they must be related. My dear ass, your pack is lying by your bed, and you had it on your back when I met you. He saw it all the time, of course. And anyway I have some stuff of my own. Come on now. Longbottom Leaf it is. Fill up while I run and see about some food. And then lets be easy for a bit. Dear me. We Tooks and Brandybucks, we cant live go here on the heights. No, said Merry. I cant. Not yet, at any rate. But at least, Pippin, we can now see them, and honour them. It is best to love first what you are fitted to love, I suppose: you must start somewhere and have some roots, and the soil of the Shire is deep. Still there are things deeper and higher; and not a gaffer could tend his garden in what he calls peace but for them, whether he knows about them or not. I am glad that I know about them, a little. But I dont know why I am talking like this. Where is that leaf. And get my pipe out of my pack, if it isnt broken. Aragorn and Gandalf went now to the Warden of the Houses of Healing, and ´ they counselled him that Faramir and Eowyn should remain there and still be tended with care for many days. The Lady Eowyn, said Aragorn, will wish soon to rise and depart; ´ but she should not be permitted to do so, if you can in any way restrain her, until at least ten days be passed. As for Faramir, said Gandalf, he must soon learn that his father is dead. But the full tale of the madness of Denethor should not be told to him, until he is quite healed and has duties to do. See that Beregond and the perian who were present do not speak to him of these things yet. And the other perian, Meriadoc, who is under my care, what of him. said the Warden. It is likely that he will be fit to arise tomorrow, for a short while, T HE HO U SES O F HEALI NG 871 said Aragorn. Let him do so, if he wishes. He may walk a little in the care of his friends. They are a remarkable race, said the Warden, nodding his head. Very tough in the fibre, I deem. At the doors of the Houses many were already gathered to see Aragorn, and they followed after him; and when at last he had supped, men came and prayed that he would heal their kinsmen or their friends whose lives were in peril through hurt or wound, or who lay under the Black Shadow. And Aragorn arose and went out, and he sent for the sons of Elrond, and together they laboured far into the night. And word went through the City: The King is come again indeed. And they named him Elfstone, because of the green stone that he wore, and so the name which it was foretold at his birth that he should bear was chosen for him by his own people. And when he could labour no more, he cast his cloak about him, and slipped out of the City, and went to his tent just ere dawn and slept for a little. And in the morning the banner of Dol Amroth, a white ship like a swan upon blue water, floated from the Tower, and men looked up and wondered if the coming of the King had been but a dream. Chapter 9 THE LAST DEBATE The morning came after the day of battle, and it was fair with light clouds and the wind turning westward. Legolas and Gimli were early abroad, and they begged leave to go up into the City; for they were eager to see Merry and Pippin. It is good to learn that they are still alive, said Gimli; for they cost us great pains in our march over Rohan, and I would not have such pains all wasted. Together the Elf and the Dwarf entered Minas Tirith, and folk that saw them pass marvelled to see such companions; for Legolas was fair of face beyond the measure of Men, and he sang an elven-song in a clear voice as he walked in the morning; but Gimli stalked beside him, stroking his beard and staring about him. There is some good stone-work here, he said as he looked at the walls; but also some that is less good, and the streets could be better contrived. When Aragorn comes into his own, I shall offer him the service of stonewrights of the Mountain, and we will make this a town to be proud of. They need more gardens, said Legolas. The houses are Steam cleaner mop heads, and there is too little here that grows and is glad. If Aragorn comes into his own, the people of the Wood shall bring him birds that sing and trees that do not die. At length they came to the Prince Imrahil, and Legolas looked at him and bowed low; for he saw that here indeed was one who had elven-blood in his veins. Hail, lord. he said. It is long since the people of Nimrodel left the read more of Lo´rien, and yet still one may see that not all sailed from Amroths haven west over water. So it is said in the lore of my land, said the Prince; yet never has one of the fair folk been seen there for years beyond count. And I marvel to see one here now in the midst of sorrow and war. What do you seek. I am one of the Nine Companions who set out with Mithrandir from Imladris, said Legolas; and with this Dwarf, my friend, I came with the Lord Aragorn. But now we wish to see our friends, Meriadoc and Steam cleaner mop heads, who are in your keeping, we are told. You will find them in the Houses of Healing, and I will lead you thither, said Imrahil. It will be enough if you send one to guide us, lord, said Legolas. T HE LAST D EBATE 873 For Aragorn sends this message to you. He does not wish to enter the City again at this time. Yet there is need for the captains to hold council at once, and he prays that you and Eomer of Rohan will ´ come down to his tents, as soon as may be. Mithrandir is already there. We will come, said Imrahil; and they parted with courteous words. That is a fair lord and a great captain of men, said Legolas. If Gondor has such men still in these days of fading, great must have been its glory in the days of its rising. And doubtless the good stone-work is the older and was wrought in the first building, said Gimli. It is ever so with the things that Men begin: there is a frost in Spring, or a blight in Summer, and they fail of their promise. Yet seldom do they fail of their seed, said Legolas. And that will lie in the dust and rot to spring up again in times and places unlooked-for. The deeds of Men will outlast us, Gimli. And yet come to naught in the end but might-have-beens, I guess, said the Dwarf. To that the Elves know not the answer, said Legolas. With that the servant of the Prince came and led them to the Houses of Healing; and there they found their friends in the garden, and their meeting was a merry one. For a while they walked and talked, rejoicing for a brief space in peace and rest under the morning high up in the windy circles of the City. Then when Merry became weary, they went and sat upon the wall with the greensward of the Houses of Healing behind them; and away southward before them was the Anduin glittering in the sun, as it flowed away, out of the sight even of Legolas, into the wide flats and green haze of Lebennin and South Ithilien. And now Legolas fell silent, while the others talked, and he looked out against the sun, and as he gazed he saw white sea-birds beating up the River. Look. he cried. Gulls. They are flying far inland. A wonder they are to me and a trouble to my heart. Never in all my life had I met them, until we came to Pelargir, and there I heard them crying in the air as we rode to the battle of the ships. Then I stood still, forgetting war in Middle-earth; for their wailing voices spoke to me of the Sea. The Sea. Alas. I have not yet beheld it. But deep in the hearts of all my kindred lies the sea-longing, which it is perilous to stir. Alas. for the gulls. No peace shall I have again under beech or under elm. Say not so. said Gimli. There are countless things still to see wiki apex car 874 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS Middle-earth, and great works to Steam cleaner mop heads. But if all the fair folk take to the Havens, it will be a duller world for those who are doomed to stay. Dull and dreary indeed. said Merry. You must not go to the Havens, Legolas. There will always be some folk, big or little, and even a few wise dwarves like Gimli, who need you. At least I hope so. Though I feel somehow that the worst of this war is still to come. How I wish it was all over, and well over. Dont be so gloomy. cried Pippin. The Sun is shining, and here we are together for a day or two at least. I want to hear more about you all. Come, Gimli. You and Legolas have mentioned your strange journey with Strider about a dozen times already this morning. But you havent told me anything about it. The Sun may shine here, said Gimli, but there are memories of that road that I do not wish to recall out of the darkness. Had I known what was before me, I think that not for any friendship would I have taken the Paths of the Dead. The Paths of the Dead. said Pippin. I heard Aragorn say that, and I wondered what he could mean. Wont you tell us some more. Not willingly, said Gimli. For upon that road I was put to shame: Gimli Glo´ins son, who had deemed himself more tough than Men, and hardier under earth than any Elf. But neither did I prove; and I was held to the road only by the will of Aragorn. And by the love of him also, said Legolas. For all those who come to know him come to love him after their own fashion, even the cold maiden of the Rohirrim. It was at early morn of the day ere you came there, Merry, that we left Dunharrow, and such a fear was on all the folk that none would look on our going, save the Lady Eowyn, ´ who lies now hurt in the House below. There was grief at that parting, and I was grieved to behold it. Alas. I had heart only for myself, said Gimli. Nay. I will not speak of that journey. He fell silent; but Pippin and Merry were so eager for news that at last Legolas said: I will tell you enough for your peace; for I felt not the horror, and I feared not the shadows of Men, powerless and frail as I deemed them. Swiftly then he told of the haunted road under the mountains, and the dark tryst at Erech, and the great ride thence, ninety leagues and three, to Pelargir on Anduin. Four days and nights, and on into a fifth, we rode from the Black Stone, he said. And lo. in the darkness of Mordor my hope rose; for in that gloom the Shadow Host seemed to grow stronger and more terrible to look upon. Some I saw riding, some striding, yet all moving with the same great speed. Silent they were, but there was a gleam in their eyes. In the uplands of Lamedon T HE LAST D EBATE 875 they overtook our horses, and swept round us, and would have passed us by, if Aragorn had not forbidden them. At his command they fell back. Even the shades of Men are obedient to his will, I thought. They may serve his needs yet. One day of light we rode, and then came the day without dawn, and still we rode on, and Ciril and Ringlo´ we crossed; and on the third day we came to Linhir above the mouth of Gilrain. And there men of Lamedon contested the fords with fell folk of Umbar and Harad who had sailed up the river. But defenders and foes alike gave up the battle and visit web page when we came, crying out that the King of the Dead was upon them. Only Angbor, Lord of Lamedon, had the heart to abide us; and Aragorn bade him gather his folk and come behind, if they dared, when the Grey Host had passed. At Pelargir the Heir of Isildur will have need of you, he said. Thus we crossed over Gilrain, driving the allies of Mordor in rout before us; and then we rested a while. But soon Aragorn arose, saying: Lo. already Minas Tirith is assailed. I fear that it will fall ere we come to its aid. So we mounted again before night had passed and went on with all the speed that our horses could endure over the plains of Lebennin. Legolas paused and sighed, and turning his eyes southward softly he sang: Silver flow the streams from Celos to Erui In the green fields of Lebennin. Tall grows the grass there. In the wind from the Sea The white lilies sway, And the golden bells are shaken of mallos and alfirin In the green fields of Lebennin, In the wind from the Sea. Green are those fields in the songs of my people; but they were dark then, grey wastes in the blackness before us. And over the wide land, trampling unheeded the grass and the flowers, we hunted Steam cleaner mop heads foes through a day and a night, until we came at the bitter end to the Great River at last. Then I thought in my heart that we drew near to the Sea; for wide was the water in the darkness, and sea-birds innumerable cried on its shores. Alas for the wailing of the gulls. Did not the Lady tell me to beware of them. And now I cannot forget them. For my part I heeded them not, said Gimli; for we came then at last upon battle in earnest. There at Pelargir lay the main fleet of Umbar, fifty great ships and smaller vessels beyond count. Many of those that we pursued had reached the havens before us, and brought 876 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS their fear with them; and some of the ships had put off, seeking to escape down the River or to reach the far shore; and many of the smaller craft were ablaze. But the Haradrim, being now driven to the brink, turned at bay, and they were fierce in despair; and they laughed when they looked on us, for they were a great army still. But Aragorn halted and cried with a great voice: Now come. By the Black Stone I call you. And suddenly the Shadow Host that had hung back at the last came up like a grey tide, sweeping all away before it. Faint cries I heard, and dim horns blowing, and a murmur as of countless far voices: it was like the echo of some forgotten battle in the Dark Years long ago. Pale swords were drawn; but I know not whether their blades would still bite, for the Dead needed no longer any weapon but fear. None would withstand them. To every ship they came that was drawn up, and then they passed over the water to those that were anchored; and all the mariners were filled with a madness of terror and leaped overboard, save the slaves chained to the oars. Reckless we rode among our fleeing foes, driving them like leaves, until we came to the shore. And then to each of the great ships that remained Aragorn sent one of the Du´nedain, and they comforted the captives that were aboard, and bade them put aside fear and be free. Ere that dark day ended none of the enemy were left to resist us; all were drowned, or were flying south in the hope to find their own lands upon foot. Strange and wonderful I thought it that the designs of Mordor should be overthrown by such wraiths of fear and darkness. With its own weapons was it worsted. Strange indeed, said Legolas. In that hour I looked on Aragorn and thought how great and terrible a Lord he might have become in the strength of his will, had he taken the Ring to himself. Not for naught does Mordor fear him.
But this eastward trail is fresh and clear. There is no sign there of any feet going the other way, back click Anduin. Now we must ride slower, and make sure that no trace or footstep branches off on either side. The Orcs must have been aware from this point that they were pursued; they may have made some foe to get their captives away before they were overtaken. As they rode forward the day was overcast. Low grey clouds came over the Wold. A mist shrouded the sun. Ever nearer the tree-clad slopes of Fangorn loomed, slowly darkling as the sun went west. They saw no sign of any trail to right or left, but here and there they passed single Orcs, fallen in their tracks as they ran, with greyfeathered arrows sticking in back or throat. At last as the afternoon was waning they came to the eaves of the forest, and in an open glade among the first trees they found the place of the great burning: the ashes were still hot and smoking. Beside it was a great https://freewargames.cloud/game/rockstar-games.php Call of duty jeep for sale digital helms and mail, cloven shields, and broken swords, bows and darts and other gear of war. Upon a stake in the middle was set a great goblin head; upon its shattered helm the white badge could still be seen. Further away, not far from the river, where it came streaming out from the edge of the wood, there was a mound. It was newly raised: the raw earth was covered with fresh-cut turves: about it were planted fifteen spears. Aragorn and his companions searched Call of duty jeep for sale digital and wide about the field of battle, but the light faded, and evening soon drew down, dim and misty. By nightfall they had discovered no trace of Merry and Pippin. We can do no more, said Gimli sadly. We have been set many riddles since we came to Tol Brandir, but this is the hardest to unravel. I would guess that the burned bones of the hobbits are now mingled with the Orcs. It will be hard news learn more here Frodo, if he lives to T HE RIDER S O F R O HA N 441 hear it; and hard too for the old hobbit who waits in Rivendell. Elrond was against their coming. But Article source was not, said Legolas. But Gandalf chose to come himself, and he was the first to be lost, answered Call of duty jeep for sale digital. His dgiital failed him. The counsel of Gandalf was not founded on foreknowledge of safety, for himself or for others, said Aragorn. There are some things cuty it is better to begin than to refuse, even though the end may be dark. But I shall not depart from this place yet. In any case we must here await the morning-light. A little way beyond the battle-field they made their camp under a spreading tree: it looked like a chestnut, and yet it still bore many broad brown leaves of a former year, like dry hands with long splayed fingers; they rattled mournfully in the night-breeze. Gimli shivered. They had brought only one sxle apiece. Let us light a fire, he said. I care no longer for the danger. Let the Orcs come as thick as summer-moths round a candle. If those unhappy hobbits are astray in the woods, it might draw them hither, said Legolas. And it might draw other things, neither Orc nor Hobbit, said Aragorn. We are near to the mountain-marches of the traitor Saruman. Also we are on the very edge of Fangorn, and it is perilous to touch the trees of that wood, it is said. But the Sape made a great burning here yesterday, said Gimli, and they felled trees for the fire, as can be seen. Yet they passed the night after safely here, when their labour was ended. They were many, said Aragorn, and they do not heed the wrath of Fangorn, for they come here seldom, and they do not go under the trees. Dugital our paths are click to lead us into the very forest itself. So have a care. Cut no living wood. There is no need, said Gimli. The Riders have left chip and bough enough, and there is dead wood lying in plenty. He went off to gather fuel, and busied himself with building and kindling a fire; but Aragorn sat silent with his back to the great tree, deep in thought; and Legolas stood alone in the open, looking towards the profound shadow of the wood, leaning forward, as one who listens djty voices calling from a distance. When the Dwarf had a small bright blaze going, the three companions drew close to it and sat together, shrouding the light with their hooded forms. Legolas looked up at the boughs of the tree reaching out above them. Look. he said. The tree is glad of the fire. It may have been that sape dancing shadows tricked their eyes, but 442 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS certainly to each of the companions the boughs appeared to be bending this way and that so as to come above the flames, while the upper branches were stooping down; the brown leaves now stood out stiff, and rubbed together like many cold cracked hands taking comfort in the warmth. There was a silence, for suddenly the dark and unknown forest, so near at hand, made itself felt as a great brooding presence, full of secret dutt. After a while Legolas spoke again. Celeborn warned us not to go far into Fangorn, he said. Do you know why, Aragorn. What are the fables of the forest that Boromir had heard. I have heard many tales in Gondor and elsewhere, said Aragorn, but if it if not for the words of Celeborn I should deem them only fables that Men have made as true knowledge fades. I had thought of asking you what was the truth of the matter. And if an Elf of the wood does not know, how shall a Man answer. You have journeyed sorry, steam link no wifi sorry than I, said Legolas. I have heard nothing of this in jedp own land, save only songs that tell how Call of duty jeep for sale digital Onodrim, that Men call Ents, dwelt there long ago; for Fangorn is old, old even as the Elves would reckon it. Yes, it is old, said Aragorn, as old as the forest by the Barrowdowns, and it is far greater. Elrond says that the two are akin, the last strongholds of the mighty woods of the Elder Days, in which the Firstborn roamed while Men still slept. Yet Fangorn holds some secret of its own. What it is I do not know. And I do not wish to know, said Gimli. Let nothing that dwells in Fangorn be troubled on my account. They now drew lots for the Calk, and the lot for the first watch fell to Gimli. The others lay down. Almost at once sleep laid hold on them. Gimli. said Aragorn drowsily. Remember, it is perilous to cut bough or twig from a living tree in Fangorn.
