"I thought it was just some kind of dry food, like something made by people in the valley, as a food substitute when traveling in the wild," Brown said.
"That's true!" the elves replied: "But we call it leba or marching bread. The nourishing effect should be better than any food made by humans, and the taste is much better than dry food."
"Indeed," Iloth said after taking a bite of the elven bread, "Oh my god, this even surpasses the honey cake in the imperial court!"
Even Ekaterina was full of praise after tasting it: "It's really delicious dry food. Thank you for your generosity!"
"You're welcome, but we still have to ask you to eat as sparingly as possible," the elves said: "Eat only a little at a time, only when you are hungry, because these things are used to help you survive the situation of food shortage.
If you don't break the exterior, and leave them wrapped in leaves as they are now, they will stay fresh for a very long time. Just one piece will suffice for a traveler to walk all day and perform many laborious tasks, even if he is
The ogres of the Central Mountains are no exception."
The high elves next unpacked the clothes given to everyone. They gave everyone a completely tailor-made hooded cloak. The material used was the light and warm silk that the elves usually used to weave clothes.
satin.
It is difficult for onlookers to judge what color they are, because when under the trees, they look like twilight gray, but when the cloak is moving or under a light source, they turn into
It is as green as leaves, turns into a brown earth-like color at night, and turns into a water-like color under the starlight.
Each cloak is fastened to the body with a lapel pin with a green leaf edged with silver.
"Are these magic cloaks?" Ekaterina looked at these clothes with surprise, but she did not feel any traces of magic on these cloaks.
"This is not a magic item," the leader of the elf said: "Because magic items are easy to be exposed sometimes. They are very good clothes, and the workmanship is quite good. They are all made on this land. When we were in
When weaving, we weave our thoughts and longing for this land stitch by stitch; however, they are still just clothing, not armor, and cannot stop arrows or swords. But for you, they should be quite practical;
These clothes are very light to wear, can keep you warm or cool when necessary, and they are very suitable for hiding from unfriendly eyes, whether you are walking on the rocks or in the forest. You are really loved by the Queen.
, because she herself and the maids sewed it stitch by stitch; and no outsider has ever worn our clothes before."
After breakfast, everyone said goodbye to the elves by the fountain.
Their hearts are heavy because this is a beautiful place that feels like home to them, even if they are not sure how many days they have spent here.
As they looked at the spring water in the sun, the Elf Queen Arwen walked towards them across the grass.
"The scouts in the tribe have received news that the western region is filled with a large number of defeated goblins and kobolds. Although they are not strong in combat, their numbers are too many." Yawen said: "If you want to go to the west,
I’m afraid we can’t go from that way. However, you’d better come with me! Your current direction must be to the southwest.”
When they passed through the territory of the Silver Moon Clan, there was no one in the jungle, but there were many murmuring and singing sounds from the trees, but they themselves were silent.
Finally, Yawen and a group of elven warriors brought Elos and others to the southern part of the Silver Moon clan's territory.
So, they left the road and entered a thick jungle, continuing to follow the winding path through the long forest, which led them south and west, towards the bank of the river.
They walked about ten miles, and when it was almost noon, a high green wall appeared in front of them.
After passing through an opening above, the group suddenly left the woods.
In front of them was a series of grassland reflecting the bright sunshine, dotted with golden Gesang flowers.
This grassland is just between two rivers. On the right is the shining silver river flowing westward, and on the left is the broad and deep river flowing eastward.
On the farther bank of the river, there is still a forest that continues to extend to the southwest, but the area close to the river looks very desolate. It seems that there are no towering trees growing in this area except for the lands outside the Silver Moon Clan.
On the shore of the Silver Light River, a little away from the confluence of the two rivers, there is a pier made of white stone and white wood, with many ships and boats docked next to it.
Some were painted in very bright colors, with flashes of silver, gold and green, but most of the ships were simply white or gray.
Ten gray boats were made for the party, and the elves placed most of the luggage in them. They also added three bundles of rope to each boat.
These ropes feel very smooth and look very slender, but are actually very strong. The color of the ropes is as gray and puffy as the elf's cloak.
"What are these?" Druid Brown of the War Eagle Clan looked at these bundles of ropes.
"It's a rope!" the elf on the boat replied: "Be sure to bring a rope when you go out! And it must be strong, long enough, and light enough. Ropes like these can come in handy in many places."
"You don't need to tell me this!" Brown said: "I forgot to bring it with me when I came here, which made me worried all the way. I also know some techniques for making ropes, but I really can't see how this rope is made.
"However, this can still be regarded as the elite of the rope family." He finally made a judgment.
"They are made from the vines of the ancient elven trees," the elf said. "However, we don't have time to teach you the detailed production methods now. If we knew that you wanted to learn this thing, we could teach you a lot. Really
It's a pity that unless you come back here in the future, you can only make do with it now. I hope I can help you!"
"Come on!" said an elf specializing in sailing: "Everything is ready. Get on the boat quickly! Be careful when you first get on the boat!"
"Attention!" other elves said: "These are very light ships, and their exquisite workmanship is different from the ships of other races. No matter how you shake it, it will not capsize, but if your oar-operating skills are not good enough,
It is very likely that you will go in the wrong direction. You'd better spend some time at the dock to practice getting on and off the boat before setting sail."
The group of people arranged their seats like this: Eloise, Ekaterina and the maid Jenny were on a boat.
An average of three people from the other War Eagle clans sat on a boat. In this way, a group of more than thirty people filled ten elven boats.
These boats were operated with oars with short handles and wide, leaf-shaped blades at the end.
After preparing everything, and bidding farewell to the elf queen Arwen and other elves who were seeing off, Elos led everyone to sail along the Silver River. The current was very fast, and for the sake of safety, they deliberately reduced the speed of the boat.
Ekaterina sat on the bow of the boat, holding on to the hull of the boat and looking pitifully at the shore. The sunlight shining on the river made everyone feel dizzy and made her a little seasick.
After they passed the delta at the confluence, the river was covered with golden leaves, the air was very fresh, and except for the chirping of skylarks, everything was quiet.
They made a sharp turn on the river, and a huge swan appeared on the river and sailed towards them, the water splashing around its curved chest.
Its beak flashed with golden light, its eyes were as dark as black coal embedded in yellow gems, and its huge white wings spread out.
As it drifted closer and closer, the sound of music got closer and closer, and then they realized that it turned out to be a ship that was sculpted like a flying bird with the ingenuity of elven craftsmen.
Two elves in white robes controlled the direction of the ship with black oars. The Elf King Elrond and Queen Galadriel stood in the middle of the ship. The tall and beautiful queen wore a golden flower crown and held a harp in her hand.
Singing songs.
In this cool, clear air, her voice sounded very sweet and slightly sad.
The forest is long and the green grass is green by the river,
The evening breeze blows and the sound of the willow harp lingers in the sunset outside the mountains,
There are only a few close friends at the end of the world,
A pot of honey and wine will make you happy. Don’t sleep in the cold tonight.
The forest is long and the green grass is green by the river,
When I ask you when you are going to come, don't hesitate.
There are only a few close friends at the end of the world,
