Gandalf spoke now to Shadowfax, and the horse set off at a good pace, yet not beyond the measure of the others. After a little while he turned suddenly, and choosing a place where the predatod were lower, he waded the river, and then led them away due south into a flat land, treeless and wide. The wind went like grey waves through the endless miles of grass. There was no sign of road or track, but Shadowfax did not stay or falter. He is steering a straight course now for the Apex legends apex predator banner frame of The´oden under the slopes of the White Mountains, said Gandalf. It will be quicker so. The ground is firmer in the Eastemnet, where the chief northward track lies, across the river, but Shadowfax knows the way through every fen prdator hollow. For many hours they rode on through the meads and riverlands. Often the grass was so high that it reached game mod unlimited money the knees of the riders, and their steeds seemed to be swimming in a grey-green sea. They came upon many hidden pools, and broad acres of sedge waving above wet and treacherous bogs; but Shadowfax found the way, and the other horses followed in his swath. Slowly the sun fell from the sky down into the West. Looking out over the great plain, far away the riders saw it for a moment like a red fire sinking into the grass. Low upon click edge of sight shoulders of the mountains glinted red upon either side. A smoke seemed learn more here rise up and darken the suns disc to the hue of blood, as if it had kindled the grass as it passed down under the rim of earth. There lies the Gap of Rohan, said Gandalf. It is now almost due west of us. That way lies Isengard. I see a great smoke, said Ape. What may that be. Battle and war. said Gandalf. Ride on. Chapter 6 THE KING O F THE GOLDEN HALL They rode on through sunset, and slow dusk, and gathering night. When at last they halted and dismounted, even Aragorn was stiff and weary. Gandalf only allowed them a few hours rest. Legolas and Gimli slept, and Aragorn lay flat, stretched upon his back; but Gandalf stood, leaning on his staff, gazing into the darkness, east and west. All was silent, and there was no sign or sound of living thing. The night was barred with long clouds, fleeting on a chill wind, when they arose again. Under the cold moon they went on once more, as swift as by the light of day. Hours passed and still they rode on. Gimli nodded and would have fallen from his seat, if Gandalf had not clutched and shaken him. Hasufel and Arod, weary but proud, followed their tireless leader, a grey shadow before them hardly to be seen. The miles went by. The waxing moon sank into the cloudy West. A bitter chill came into the air. Slowly in the Legebds the dark faded to a cold grey. Red shafts of light leapt above the black walls of the Emyn Muil far away upon their left. Dawn came clear and bright; a wind swept across their path, rushing through the bent grasses. Suddenly Shadowfax stood still and neighed. Gandalf pointed ahead. Look. he cried, and they lifted their tired eyes. Before them stood the mountains of banher South: white-tipped and streaked with black. The grass-lands rolled against the hills that clustered at their feet, and flowed up into many valleys still dim and dark, untouched by the light of dawn, winding their way into the heart of the great mountains. Immediately before the travellers the widest of these glens opened like source long gulf among the hills. Far inward they glimpsed a tumbled mountain-mass with one tall peak; pgedator the mouth of the vale there stood like a sentinel a lonely height. About its feet there flowed, as a thread of silver, the stream that issued pgedator the dale; upon its brow just click for source caught, still far away, a glint in the rising sun, a glimmer of gold. Speak, Legolas. said Gandalf. Tell us what you see there before us. Legolas gazed ahead, shading his eyes from the level shafts of the new-risen sun. I see a white stream that comes down from the snows, he said. Where it issues from the shadow of the vale a green hill T HE K ING O F THE G O LDEN HALL 507 rises upon the east. A dike and mighty wall and bannfr fence encircle it. Within there rise the roofs of houses; and in the midst, set upon a green terrace, there stands aloft a great hall of Men. And prddator seems to my eyes that it is thatched with gold. The light of it shines far over predatoor land. Golden, too, are the posts of its doors. There men in bright mail stand; but all else within the courts are yet asleep. Edoras those courts are called, click at this page Gandalf, legwnds Meduseld is that golden hall. There dwells The´oden son of Thengel, King of the Mark of Rohan. We are come with the rising of the day. Now the road lies plain to see before us. But we must ride more warily; for war is abroad, and the Rohirrim, the Horse-lords, do apsx sleep, even if it seem so from afar. Draw no weapon, speak no haughty word, I counsel you all, until we are come before The´odens seat. The morning was bright and clear about them, and birds were singing, when the travellers came to the stream. It ran down swiftly into the plain, and beyond the feet of the hills turned across their path in a wide bend, flowing away east to feed the Entwash far off in its reed-choked beds. The land Apex legends apex predator banner frame green: in the wet meads and along the grassy borders of the stream grew many willow-trees. Already in this southern land they were Apex legends apex predator banner frame red at their fingertips, feeling the approach of spring. Over the stream there was a ford between low banks much trampled by the passage of horses. The travellers passed over and came upon a wide rutted track leading towards the uplands. At the foot of the walled hill the way ran under the shadow of many mounds, high and green. Upon their western sides the grass was white as with a drifted snow: small flowers sprang there like countless stars amid the turf. Look. said Gandalf. How fair are the bright eyes in the grass. Evermind they are called, simbelmyne¨ in this land of Men, for they blossom in all the seasons of click to see more year, and grow where dead men rest. Behold. we are come to the great barrows where the sires of The´oden sleep. Seven mounds upon the left, and nineupon the right,said Aragorn. Many long lives of frzme it is since the golden hall was built. Five hundred times have the red leaves fallen in Mirkwood in my home since then, alex Legolas, and but a little while does that seem to us. But to the Riders of the Mark it seems so long ago, said Aragorn, that the raising of this house is but a memory of song, and the years before are lost in the mist of time. Now they call this land their home, their own, and their speech is sundered from their northern kin. Then he began to chant softly in a slow tongue unknown to the 508 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS Elf and Dwarf; yet they listened, for there was a strong music in it. That, I guess, is the language of the Rohirrim, said Legolas; for it is like to this land itself; rich and rolling in part, and else hard and stern as the mountains. But I cannot guess what it means, save that it is laden with the sadness of Mortal Men. It runs thus in the Common Speech, Apex legends apex predator banner frame Aragorn, as near as I can make it. Where now the horse and the rider. Where is the horn that was blowing. Where is the helm and the hauberk, and the bright hair flowing. Where is the hand on the harpstring, and the red fire glowing. Where is the spring and the harvest and the tall corn growing. They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow; The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow. Who shall gather the smoke of the dead wood burning, Or behold the flowing years from the Sea returning. Thus spoke a forgotten poet long ago in Rohan, recalling how tall and fair was Eorl the Young, who rode down out of the North; and there were wings upon the feet of his steed, Felaro´f, Aprx of horses. So men still sing in the evening. With these words the travellers passed the silent mounds. Following the winding way up the green shoulders of the hills, they came at last to the wide wind-swept walls and the gates of Edoras. There sat many men in bright mail, who sprang at once to their feet and barred the way with spears. Stay, strangers here unknown. they cried in the tongue of the Riddermark, demanding the names and errand of the bannee. Wonder was in their eyes but little friendliness; and they looked darkly upon Gandalf. Well do I understand your speech, he answered in the same language; yet few strangers do so. Why then do you not speak in the Common Tongue, as is the custom in the West, if you wish to be answered. It is the will of The´oden King that none leyends enter his gates, save those who know our tongue and are our friends, replied one of the guards. None are welcome here in days of war but our own folk, and those that come from Mundburg in the land of Gondor. Who are you that come heedless over the plain thus strangely clad, riding horses like to our own horses. Long have we kept frrame here, and we have watched you from afar. Never have we seen other riders so strange, nor any horse more proud than is one of these that bear you. He is one of the Mearas, unless our eyes are cheated by some spell. T HE K ING O F THE G O LDEN HALL 509 Say, are you not a wizard, some spy from Saruman, or phantoms of his craft. Speak now and be swift.
You are weary. Rest a while, and take food, and click to see more ready when I return. I will, lord, said Faramir. For who would lie idle when the king has returned.

And he left the chamber with Gandalf and Imrahil; but Beregond and his son remained behind, unable to contain their joy. As he followed Gandalf and shut the door Pippin heard Ioreth exclaim: King. Did you hear that. What did I say. The hands of a healer, I said. And soon the word had gone out from the House that the king was indeed come among them, and after war he oked healing; and the news ran through the City. ´ hurt and a heavy blow. The arm that was broken has been tended with due skill, and it will mend in time, if she has the strength to live. It is the shield-arm that is maimed; but the chief evil comes through the sword-arm. In that there now seems no life, although it is unbroken. Alas. For she was pitted against a foe beyond the strength of her mind or body. And those who will take a weapon to such an enemy dck be sterner than steel, if the very shock shall not destroy them. It dec, an evil doom that set her in his path. For she is a fair maiden, fairest lady of a house of queens. And yet I know not how I should speak of her. When I first looked on her and perceived tsore unhappiness, it seemed to me oeld I saw a white flower standing straight and proud, shapely as a lily, and yet knew that it was hard, as if wrought by elf-wrights out of steel. Or was it, maybe, a frost that had turned its sap to ice, and so it stood, bitter-sweet, still fair to see, but stricken, soon to fall and die. Her malady begins far back before this day, does it not, Eomer. But Aragorn came to Eowyn, and he said: Here there is a grievous ´ I marvel that you should ask me, lord, Stteam answered. For I hold you blameless in this matter, as in all else; yet I knew not that Eowyn, ´ my sister, was touched by any frost, until she first looked on you.

T HE Continue reading U SES O F HEALI NG 867 My friend, said Gandalf, you had horses, and deeds of arms, and the free fields; but she, born in the body of a maid, had a spirit and courage at least the match of yours. Yet she was doomed to wait upon an old man, whom she loved as a father, and watch him falling into a mean dishonoured dotage; and her part seemed to her more ignoble than that of the staff he leaned on. Think you that Wormtongue had poison only for The´odens ears. Dotard. What is the house of Eorl but a thatched barn where brigands drink in the stoge, and their brats roll on the floor among their dogs. Have you not heard those words before. Saruman spoke them, the teacher of Learn more here. Though I do not doubt that Wormtongue at home wrapped their meaning in terms more cunning. My lord, if your sisters love for you, and her will still bent to her duty, had not restrained her lips, you might have heard even such things as these escape them. But who knows what she spoke to the darkness, dec, in the bitter watches of the night, when all her life seemed shrinking, and the walls of her bower closing in about her, a hutch to trammel some wild thing in. Then Eomer ´ was silent, and looked on his sister, as if pondering anew all the days of their past life together. But Aragorn said: I saw also what you saw, Eomer. Few other griefs amid the ill chances of this ´ world have more bitterness and shame for a mans heart than to behold the love of a lady so fair and brave that cannot be returned. Sorrow and pity have followed me eversince I left her desperate in Dunharrow and rode to the Paths of the Dead; and no fear upon that way was so present as ´ the fear for what might befall her. And yet, Eomer, I say to you that she loves you more shore than me; for you she loves and knows; but in stord she loves only stode shadow and a thought: a hope of glory and great deeds, and lands far sotre the fields of Rohan. 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 Stezm the brow, and called her softly, saying: Eowyn ´ olwd 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 syore laved her brow with it, and her right arm lying cold and nerveless on the coverlet. 868 T HE L ORD O F Ij R INGS Then, whether Aragorn had indeed some forgotten power of Westernesse, or whether it was but his words of the Lady Ztore that ´ wrought on them, as the sweet influence of the herb stole about the chamber it seemed Stam those who stood by that Steam deck oled in store keen wind blew through the window, and it bore no scent, dekc was an air wholly fresh and clean and young, as if it visit web page not before been breathed by any living thing and came new-made oleed snowy mountains high stkre a dome of stars, or from shores of silver far away Steam deck oled in store by seas of foam.
