Legolas is right, said Aragorn quietly. We may not shoot an old T HE WHITE RIDER 493 man so, at unawares and unchallenged, whatever fear or doubt be on us. Watch and wait. At that moment the old man quickened his pace and came with surprising speed to the foot of the rock-wall. Then suddenly he looked up, while they stood motionless looking down. There was no sound. They could not see his face: he was hooded, and above the hood he wore a wide-brimmed hat, so that all his features were overshadowed, except for the end of his nose and his grey beard. Yet it seemed to Aragorn that he caught the gleam of eyes keen and bright from within the shadow of the hooded brows. At last the old man broke the silence. Well met indeed, my friends, he said in a soft voice. I wish to speak to you. Will you come down, or shall I come up. Without waiting for an answer he began to climb. Now. cried Gimli. Stop him, Legolas. Did I not say that I wished to speak to you. said the old man. Put away that bow, Master Elf. The bow and arrow fell from Legolas hands, and his arms hung loose at his sides. And you, Master Dwarf, pray take your hand from your axe-haft, till I am up. You will not need such arguments. Gimli started and then stood still as stone, staring, while the old man sprang up the rough steps as nimbly as a goat. All weariness seemed to have left him. As he stepped up on to the shelf there was a gleam, too brief for certainty, a quick glint of white, as if some garment shrouded by the grey rags had been for an instant revealed. The intake of Gimlis breath could be heard as a loud hiss in the silence. Well met, I say again. said the old man, coming towards them. When he was a few feet away, he stood, stooping over his staff, with his head thrust forward, peering at them from under his hood. And what may you be doing in these parts. An Elf, a Man, and a Dwarf, all clad in Elvish fashion. No doubt there is a tale worth hearing behind it all. Such things are not often seen here. You speak as one that knows Fangorn well, said Aragorn. Is that so. Not well, said the old man: that would be the study of many lives. But I come here now and again. Might we know your name, and then hear what it is that you have to say to us. said Aragorn. The morning passes, and we have an errand that will not wait. As for what I wished to say, I have said it: What may you be 494 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS doing, and what tale can you tell of yourselves. As for my name. He broke off, laughing long and softly. Aragorn felt a shudder run through him at the sound, a strange cold thrill; and yet it was not fear or terror that he felt: rather it was like the sudden bite of a keen air, or the slap of a cold rain that wakes an uneasy sleeper. My name. said the old man again. Have you not guessed it already. You have heard it before, I think. Yes, you have heard it before. But come now, what of your tale. The three companions stood silent and made no answer. There are Steam refund funds pending who would begin to doubt whether your errand is fit to tell, said the old man. Happily I know something of it. You are tracking the footsteps of two young hobbits, I believe. Yes, hobbits. Dont stare, as if you had never heard the strange name before. You have, and so have I. Well, they climbed up here the day before yesterday; and they met someone that they did not expect. Does that comfort you. And now you would like to know where they were taken. Well, well, maybe I can give you some news about that. But why are we standing. Your errand, you see, is no longer as urgent as you thought. Let us sit down and be more at ease. The call of duty warzone audio settings needed man turned away and went towards a heap of fallen stones and rock at the foot of the cliff behind. Immediately, as if a spell had been removed, the others relaxed and stirred. Gimlis hand went at once to his axe-haft. Aragorn drew his sword. Legolas picked up his bow. The old man took no notice, but stooped and sat himself on a low flat stone. Then his grey cloak drew apart, and they saw, beyond doubt, that he was clothed beneath all in white. Saruman. cried Gimli, springing towards him with axe in hand. Speak. Tell us where you have hidden our friends. What have you done with them. Speak, or I will make a dint in your hat that even a wizard will find it hard to deal with. The old man was too quick for him. He sprang to his feet and leaped to the top of a large pubg ka video live. There he stood, grown suddenly tall, towering above them. His hood there pubg game wikipedia indonesia think his grey rags were flung away. His white garments shone. He lifted up his staff, and Gimlis axe leaped from his grasp and fell ringing on the ground. The sword of Aragorn, stiff in his motionless hand, blazed with a sudden fire. Legolas gave a great shout and shot an arrow high into the air: it vanished in a flash of flame. Mithrandir. he cried. Mithrandir. Well met, I say to you again, Legolas. said the old man. They all gazed at him. His hair was white as snow in the sunshine; and gleaming white was his robe; the eyes under his deep brows were T HE WHITE RIDER 495 bright, piercing as the rays of the sun; power was in his hand. Between wonder, joy, and fear they stood and found no words to say. At last Aragorn stirred. Gandalf. he said. Beyond all hope you return to us in our need. What veil was over my sight. Gandalf. Gimli said nothing, but sank to his knees, shading his eyes. Gandalf, the old man repeated, as if recalling from old memory a long disused word. Yes, that was the name. I was Gandalf. He stepped down from the rock, and picking up his grey cloak wrapped it about him: it seemed as if the sun had been shining, but now was hid in cloud again. Yes, you may still call me Gandalf, he said, and the voice was the voice of their old friend and guide. Get up, my good Gimli. No blame to you, and no harm done to me. Indeed my friends, none of you have any weapon that could hurt me. Be merry. We meet again. At the turn of the tide. The great storm is coming, but the tide has turned. He laid his hand on Gimlis head, and the Dwarf looked up and laughed suddenly. Gandalf. he said. But you are all in white. Yes, I am white now, said Gandalf. Indeed I am Saruman, one might almost say, Saruman as he should have been. But come now, tell me of yourselves. I have passed through fire and deep water, since we parted. I have forgotten much that I thought I knew, and learned again much that I had forgotten. I can see many things far off, but many things that are close at hand I cannot see. Tell me of yourselves. What do you wish to know. said Aragorn. All that has happened since we parted on the bridge would be a long tale. Will you not first give us news of the hobbits. Did you find them, and are they safe. No, I did not find them, said Gandalf. There was a darkness over the valleys of the Emyn Muil, and I did not know of their captivity, until the eagle told me. The eagle. said Legolas. I have seen an eagle high and far off: the last time was four days ago, above the Emyn Muil. Yes, said Gandalf, that was Gwaihir the Windlord, who rescued me from Orthanc. I sent him before me to watch the River and gather tidings. His sight is keen, but he cannot see all that passes under hill and tree. Some things he has seen, and others I have seen myself. The Ring now has passed beyond my help, or the help of any of the Company that set out from Rivendell. Very nearly it was revealed to the Enemy, but it escaped. I had some part in that: for I sat in a high place, and I strove with the Dark Tower; and the Shadow passed. Then I was weary, very weary; and I walked long in dark thought. Then you know about Frodo. said Gimli. How do things go with him. 496 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS I cannot say. He was saved from a great peril, but many lie before him still. He resolved to go alone to Mordor, and he set out: that is all that I can say. Not alone, said Legolas. We think that Sam went with him. Did he. said Gandalf, and there was a gleam in his eye and a smile on his face. Did he indeed. It is news to me, yet it does not surprise me. Good. Very good. You lighten my heart. You must tell me more. Now sit by me and tell Steam refund funds pending the tale of your journey. The companions sat on the ground at his feet, and Aragorn took up the tale. For a long while Gandalf said nothing, and he asked no questions. His hands were spread upon his knees, and his eyes were closed. At last when Aragorn spoke of the death of Boromir and of his last journey upon the Great River, the old man sighed. You have not said all that you know or guess, Aragorn my friend, he said quietly. Poor Boromir. I could not see what happened to him.
Hm, hoom: I was forgetting: singing that song put me in mind of old times; almost thought that I was og to young Entings, I did. Well, you can lie on the bed. I am going to stand in the rain. Good night. Merry and Pippin climbed on to the bed and curled up in the soft grass and fern. It was fresh, and sweet-scented, and warm. The lights died down, and the glow of the trees faded; but outside under the arch they could see old Treebeard standing, motionless, with his arms raised above his head. The bright stars peered was apex legends next season 19 safe of the sky, and lit the falling water as it spilled on https://freewargames.cloud/game/cars-2-pc-game.php his aapk and head, and dripped, dripped, in hundreds of silver drops on to his feet. Call of duty apk for pc to the tinkling of the drops the hobbits fell asleep. They woke to find a cool sun shining into the great court, and on to the floor of the bay. Shreds of high pity, baldurs gate downloads for pc play and were overhead, running Call of duty apk for pc a stiff easterly wind. Treebeard was not to be dury but while Merry and Pippin were bathing in the basin by the arch, they heard him humming and singing, as he came up the path between the trees. Hoo, ho. Good morning, Merry and Pippin. he boomed, when he saw them. You sleep long. I have been many a hundred strides already today. Now we will have a drink, and go to Entmoot. He poured them out two full bowls from a stone jar; oc from a different jar. The taste was not the same as it had been the night before: it was earthier and richer, more sustaining and food-like, so to speak. While the hobbits drank, sitting on Calll edge of the bed, and nibbling small pieces of elf-cake (more because they felt that eating was a necessary part of breakfast than because they felt hungry), Treebeard stood, humming in Entish or Elvish or Call of duty apk for pc strange tongue, and looking up at the sky. Where is Entmoot. Pippin ventured to ask. Hoo, eh. Entmoot. said Treebeard, turning round. It is not a place, itis a gathering ofEnts which does not often happen nowadays. But I have managed to make a fair number promise to come. We shall meet in the place where we have always met: Derndingle Men call it. It is go here south from here. We must be there before noon. Before https://freewargames.cloud/game-download/pubg-game-app-download-website.php they set off. Treebeard carried the apex store logo in his arms T RE EBEAR D 479 as on the previous day. At the entrance to the court he turned to the right, stepped over the stream, and gif quality steam away southwards ffor the feet of great tumbled slopes where trees were scanty. Above these the hobbits saw thickets of birch and rowan, and beyond them dark climbing pinewoods. Soon Treebeard turned a little away from the hills and plunged into deep groves, where the trees were larger, taller, and thicker than any that the hobbits had this web page seen before. For a while they felt faintly the sense of stifling which off had kf when they first ventured into Fangorn, but it soon passed. Treebeard did not talk to them. He hummed to himself deeply and thoughtfully, but Merry and Call of duty apk for pc caught no proper words: it sounded like boom, boom, rumboom, boorar, boom boom, dahrar boom boom, dahrar boom, and so on with a constant change of note and rhythm. Now and again they thought they heard an answer, a hum or a quiver of sound, that seemed to come out of the earth, or from boughs above read article heads, or perhaps from the boles of the trees; but Treebeard did not stop or turn his head to either side. They had been going for a long dutu Pippin had tried to keep count of the ent-strides but had failed, getting lost at about three thousand when Treebeard began to slacken his pace. Suddenly he stopped, put the hobbits down, and raised his curled hands to his mouth so that they made a hollow tube; then he blew or called through them. A great hoom, hom rang out like a deep-throated horn in the woods, and seemed to echo from the trees. Far off there came from several directions steam room or dry similar hoom, hom, hoom that was not an echo but an answer. Treebeard now perched Merry and Pippin on his shoulders and strode on again, every now and then sending out another horn-call, and each time the answers came louder and nearer. In this way they came at last to what looked like an impenetrable wall of dark evergreen trees, trees of a kind that the hobbits had never seen before: they branched out right from the roots, and were densely clad in dark glossy leaves like thornless holly, and they bore many stiff upright flower-spikes with large shining olive-coloured buds. Turning to the left and skirting this huge hedge Treebeard came in a few strides to a narrow entrance. Through it a worn Cqll passed and dived suddenly down a long steep slope. The hobbits saw that they were descending dtuy a great dingle, almost as round as a bowl, very wide and deep, crowned at the go here with the high dark evergreen hedge. It was smooth and grassclad inside, and there were no trees except three very tall and beautiful silver-birches that stood at the bottom of the bowl. Two other paths led down into the dingle: from the west and from the east. 480 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS Several Ents had already arrived. More were coming Call of duty apk for pc down the other paths, and some were now following Treebeard. As they drew near the hobbits gazed at them. They had expected to see a number of creatures as much like Treebeard as one hobbit is like another (at any rate to a strangers eye); and they were very much surprised to see nothing of the kind. The Ents were as different from one another as trees from trees: some as different as one tree is from another of the same name but quite different growth and history; and some link different as one tree-kind from another, as birch from beech, oak from fir. There were a few older Ents, bearded and gnarled like hale but ancient trees (though none looked as ancient as Treebeard); and there were tall strong Ents, clean-limbed and smooth-skinned like forest-trees in their prime; but there were no young Ents, no saplings. Altogether there p about two dozen standing on the wide grassy floor of the dingle, and as many more were marching in. At first Merry and Pippin were struck here by the Call of duty apk for pc that they saw: the many shapes, and colours, the differences in girth, and height, and length of leg and arm; and in the number of toes and fingers (anything https://freewargames.cloud/game/apex-pro-gaming-pc.php three to nine). A few Csll more or less related to Treebeard, and reminded them of beech-trees or oaks. But there were other kinds. Some recalled the chestnut: call of duty utorrent free download desktop Ents with large splayfingered hands, and short thick legs. Some recalled the ash: tall straight grey Ents with many-fingered hands and long legs; some the fir (the tallest Ents), and others the birch, the rowan, and the linden. But when the Ents all gathered round Treebeard, bowing their heads slightly, murmuring in their slow musical voices, and looking long and intently at the strangers, then the hobbits saw that they were all of the same kindred, and all had the same eyes: not all so old or so deep as Treebeards, but all with the same slow, steady, thoughtful expression, and the same green flicker. As soon as the whole company was assembled, standing in a wide circle round Treebeard, a curious and unintelligible conversation began. The Ents began to murmur slowly: first one joined and then another, until they were all chanting together in a long rising and falling rhythm, now louder on one side of the lf, now dying away there and rising to a great boom on the other side. Though dutt could not catch or understand any of the words he supposed the language was Entish Pippin found the sound very pleasant to https://freewargames.cloud/game/conair-steamer-not-working-brand-new.php to at first; but gradually his attention wavered. After a long time (and the chant go here no signs of slackening) he found himself wondering, since Entish was such an unhasty language, whether they had yet got further than Good Morning; and if Treebeard was to call the roll, how many days it would take to sing all their names. I wonder what the Entish is for yes or no, he thought. He yawned. T RE EBEAR D 481 Treebeard was immediately aware of him.
