I THE NUMENOREAN ´ ´ KINGS (i) nu´ menor Fe¨anor was the greatest of the Eldar in arts and lore, but also the proudest and most selfwilled. He wrought the Three Jewels, the Silmarilli, and filled them with the radiance of the Two Trees, Telperion and Laurelin,2 that gave light to the land of the Valar. The Jewels were coveted by Morgoth the Enemy, who stole them and, after destroying the Trees, took them to Middle1 A few references are given by page to this edition of The Lord of the Rings, and to the hardback 4th (reset 4th edition (1995)) edition of The Hobbit. 2 Cf. 244; 598; 9712: no likeness remained in Middle-earth of Laurelin the Golden. 1034 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS earth, and guarded them in his great fortress of Thangorodrim. 1 Against the will of the Valar Fe¨anor forsook the Blessed Realm and went in exile to Middle-earth, leading with him a great part of his people; for in his pride he purposed to recover the Jewels from Morgoth by force. Thereafter followed the hopeless war of the Eldar and the Edain against Thangorodrim, in which they were at last utterly defeated. The Edain (Atani) were three peoples of Men who, coming first to the West of Middle-earth and the shores of the Great Sea, became allies of the Eldar against the Enemy. There were three unions of the Eldar and the Edain: Lu´thien and Beren; Idril and Tuor; Arwen and Aragorn. By the last the long-sundered branches of the Half-elven were reunited and their line was restored. Lu´thien Tinu´ viel was the daughter of King Thingol Grey-cloak of Doriath in the First Age, but her mother was Melian of the people of the Valar. Beren was the son of Barahir of the First House of the Edain. Together they wrested a silmaril from the Iron Crown of Morgoth. 2 Lu´thien became mortal and was lost to Elven-kind. Dior was her son. Elwing was his daughter and had in her keeping the silmaril. Idril Celebrindal was the daughter of Turgon, king of the hidden city of Gondolin. 3 Tuor was the son of Huor of the House of Hador, the Third House of the Edain and the most renowned in the wars with Morgoth. Ea¨rendil the Mariner was their son. Ea¨rendil wedded Elwing, and with the power of the silmaril passed the Shadows4 and came to the Uttermost West, and speaking as ambassador of both Elves and Men obtained the help by which Morgoth was overthrown. Ea¨rendil was not permitted to return to mortal lands, and his ship bearing the silmaril was set to sail in the heavens as a star, and a sign of hope to the dwellers in Middle-earth oppressed by the Great Enemy or his servants. 5 The silmarilli alone preserved the ancient light of the Two Trees of Valinor before Morgoth poisoned them; but the other two were lost at the end of the First Age. Of these things the full tale, and much else concerning Elves and Men, is told in The Silmarillion. The sons of Ea¨rendil were Elros and Elrond, the Peredhil or Half-elven. In them alone the line of the heroic chieftains of the Edain in the First Age was preserved; and after the fall of Gil-galad6 the lineage of the High-elven Kings was also in Middle-earth only represented by their descendants. At the end of the First Age the Valar gave to the Half-elven an irrevocable choice to which kindred they would belong. Elrond chose to be of Elven-kind, and became a master of wisdom. To him therefore was granted the same grace as to those of the High Elves that still lingered in Middle-earth: that when weary at last of the mortal lands they could take ship from the Grey Havens and pass into the Uttermost West; and this grace continued after 1 p. 243; p. 712. 2 p. 193; p. 712. 3 The Hobbit, p. 49; The Lord of the Rings, p. 316. 4 pp. 2336. 5 pp. 3615; pp. 712, 720; pp. 915, 922. 6 pp. 52, 185. A PP ENDIX A 1035 the change of the world. But to the children of Elrond a choice was also appointed: to pass with him from the circles of the world; or if they remained to become mortal and die in Middle-earth. For Elrond, therefore, all chances of the War of the Ring were fraught with sorrow. 1 Elros chose to be of Man-kind and remain with the Edain; but a great life-span was granted to him many times that of lesser men. As a reward for their sufferings in the cause against Morgoth, the Valar, the Guardians of the World, granted to the Edain a land to dwell in, removed from the dangers of Middle-earth. Most of them, therefore, set sail over Sea, and guided by the Star of Ea¨rendil came to the great Isle of Elenna, westernmost of all Mortal lands. There they founded the realm of Nu´menor. There was a tall mountain in the midst of the land, the Meneltarma, and from its summit the farsighted could descry the white tower of the Haven of the Eldar in Eresse¨a. Thence the Eldar came to the Edain and enriched them with knowledge and many gifts; but one command had been laid upon the Nu´meno´reans, the Ban of the Valar: they were forbidden to sail west out of sight of their own shores or to attempt to set foot on the Undying Lands. For though a long span of life had been granted to them, in the beginning thrice that of lesser Men, they must remain mortal, since the Valar were not permitted to take from them the Gift of Men (or the Doom of Men, as it was afterwards called). Elros was the first King of Nu´menor, and was afterwards known by the High-elven name Tar-Minyatur. His descendants were long-lived but mortal. Later when they became powerful they begrudged the choice of their forefather, desiring the immortality within the life of the world that was the fate of the Eldar, and murmuring against the Ban. In this way began their rebellion which, under the evil teaching of Sauron, brought about the Downfall of Nu´menor and the ruin of the ancient world, as is told in the Akallabeˆth. These are the names of the Kings and Queens of Nu´menor: Elros Tar-Minyatur, Vardamir, Tar-Amandil, Tar-Elendil, Tar-Meneldur, Tar-Aldarion, TarAncalime¨ (the first Ruling Queen), Tar-Ana´rion, Tar-Su´rion, Tar-Telperie¨n (the second Queen), Tar-Minastir, Tar-Ciryatan, Tar-Atanamir the Great, Tar-Ancalimon, Tar-Telemmaite¨, Tar-Vanimelde¨ (the third Queen), TarAlcarin, Tar-Calmacil, Tar-Ardamin. After Ardamin the Kings took the sceptre in names of the Nu´meno´rean (or Aduˆnaic) tongue: Ar-Aduˆnakhoˆr, Ar-Zimrathoˆn, Ar-Sakalthoˆr, Ar-Gimilzoˆr, Ar-Inziladuˆn. Inziladuˆn repented of the ways of the Kings and changed his name to Tar-Palantir The Farsighted. His daughter should have been the fourth Queen, Tar-Mı´riel, but the Kings nephew usurped the sceptre and became Ar-Pharazoˆn the Golden, last King of the Nu´meno´reans. In the days of Tar-Elendil the first ships of the Nu´meno´reans came back to Middle-earth. His elder child was a daughter, Silmarie¨n. Her son was Valandil, first of the Lords of Andu´nie¨ in the west of the land, renowned for See pp. 974, 978. 1 1036 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS their friendship with the Eldar. From him were descended Amandil, the last lord, and his son Elendil the Tall. The sixth King left only one child, a daughter. She became the first Queen; for it was then made a law of the royal house that the eldest child of the King, whether man or woman, should receive the sceptre. The realm of Nu´menor endured to the end of the Second Age and increased ever in power and splendour; and until half the Age had passed the Nu´meno´reans grew also in wisdom and joy. The first sign of the shadow that was to fall upon them appeared in the days of Tar-Minastir, eleventh King. He it was that sent a great force to the aid of Gil-galad. He loved the Eldar but envied them. The Nu´meno´reans had now become great mariners, exploring all the seas eastward, and they began to yearn for the West and the forbidden waters; and the more joyful was their life, the more they began to long for the immortality of the Eldar. Moreover, after Minastir the Kings became greedy of wealth and power. At first the Nu´meno´reans had come to Middle-earth as teachers and friends of lesser Men afflicted by Sauron; but now their havens became fortresses, holding wide coastlands in subjection. Atanamir and his successors levied heavy tribute, and the ships of the Nu´meno´reans returned laden with spoil. It was Tar-Atanamir who first spoke openly against the Ban and declared that the life of the Eldar was his by right. Thus the shadow deepened, and the thought of death darkened the hearts of the people. Then the Nu´meno´reans became divided: on the one hand were the Kings and those who followed them, and were estranged from the Eldar and the Valar; on the other were the few who called themselves the Faithful. They lived mostly in the west of the land. The Kings and their followers little by little abandoned the use of the Eldarin tongues; and at last the twentieth King took his royal name, in Nu´meno´rean form, calling himself Ar-Aduˆnakhoˆr, Lord of the West. This seemed ill-omened to the Faithful, for hitherto they had given that title only to one of the Valar, or to the Elder King himself. 1 And indeed Ar-Aduˆnakhoˆr began to persecute the Faithful and punished those who used the Elventongues openly; and the Eldar came no more to Nu´menor. The power and wealth of the Nu´meno´reans nonetheless continued to increase; but their years lessened as their fear of death grew, and their joy departed. Tar-Palantir attempted to amend the evil; but it was too late, and there was rebellion and strife in Nu´menor. When he died, his nephew, leader of the rebellion, seized the sceptre, and became King Ar-Pharazoˆn. ArPharazoˆn the Golden was the proudest and most powerful of all the Kings, and no less than the kingship of the world was his desire. He resolved to challenge Sauron the Great for the supremacy in Middleearth, and at length he himself set sail with a great navy, and he landed at Umbar. So great was the might and splendour of the Nu´meno´reans that Saurons own servants deserted him; and Sauron humbled himself, doing p. 235. 1 A PP ENDIX A 1037 homage, and craving pardon. Then Ar-Pharazoˆn in the folly of his pride carried him back as a prisoner to Nu´menor. It was not long before he had bewitched the King and was master of his counsel; and soon he had turned the hearts of all the Nu´meno´reans, Apex character wheel season 15 click here remnant of the Faithful, back towards the darkness. And Sauron lied to the King, declaring that everlasting life would be his who possessed the Undying Lands, and that the Ban was imposed only to prevent the Kings of Men from surpassing the Valar. But great Kings take what is their right, he said. At length Ar-Pharazoˆn listened to this counsel, for he felt the waning of his days and was besotted by the fear of Death. He prepared then the greatest armament that the world had seen, and when all was ready he sounded his trumpets and set sail; and he broke the Ban of the Valar, going up with war to wrest everlasting life from the Lords of the West. But when Ar-Pharazoˆn set foot upon the shores of Aman the Blessed, the Valarlaid down their Guardianship and called upon the One, and the world was changed. Nu´menor was thrown down and swallowed in the Sea, and the Undying Lands were removed for ever from the circles of the world. So ended the glory of Nu´menor. The last leaders of the Faithful, Elendil and his sons, escaped from the Downfall with nine ships, bearing a seedling of Nimloth, and the Seven Seeing-stones (gifts of the Eldar to their House);1 and they were borne on the wind of a great storm and cast upon the shores of Middle-earth. There they established in the North-west the Nu´meno´rean realms in exile, Arnor and Gondor. 2 Elendil was the High King please click for source dwelt in the North at Annu´minas; and the rule in the South was committed to his sons, Isildur and Ana´rion. They founded there Osgiliath, between Minas Ithil and Minas Anor,3 not far from the confines of Mordor. For this good at least they believed had come out of ruin, that Sauron also had perished. But it was not so. Sauron was indeed caught in the wreck of Nu´menor, so that the bodily form in which he long had walked perished; but he fled back to Middle-earth, a spirit of hatred borne upon a dark wind. He was unable ever again to assume a form that seemed fair to men, but became black and hideous, and his power thereafter was through terror alone. He re-entered Mordor, and hid there for a time in silence. But his anger was great when he learned that Elendil, whom he most hated, had escaped him, and was now ordering a realm upon his borders. Therefore, after a time he made war upon the Exiles, before they should take root. Orodruin burst once more into flame, and was named anew in Gondor Amon Amarth, Mount Doom. But Sauron struck too soon, before his own power was rebuilt, whereas the power of Gil-galad had increased in his absence; and in the Last Alliance that was made against him Sauron was overthrown and the One Ring was taken from him. 4 So ended the Second Age. 1 p. 597; p. 971. 2 p. 242. 3 p. 244. 4 p. 243. 1038 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS (ii) the realms in exile The Northern Line Heirs of Isildur Arnor.

(iii) eriador, arnor, and the heirs of isildur Eriador was of old the name of all the lands between the Misty Mountains and the Blue; in the South it was bounded by the Greyflood and the Glanduin that flows into it above Tharbad. At its greatest Arnor included all Eriador, except the regions beyond the Lune, and the lands east of Greyflood and Loudwater, in which lay Rivendell and Hollin. Beyond the Lune was Elvish country, green and quiet, where no Men went; but Dwarves dwelt, and still dwell, in the east side of the Blue Mountains, especially in those partssouth of the Gulf ofLune, where they have mines that are still in use. For this reason they were accustomed to pass east along the Great Road, as they had done for long years before we came to the Shire. Atthe Grey Havens dweltCı´rdan theShipwright, and some say he dwells there still, until the Last Ship sets sail into the West. In the days of the Kings most of the High Elves that still lingered in Middle-earth dwelt with Cı´rdan or in the seaward lands of Lindon. If any now remain they are few. The North-kingdom and the Du´nedain After Continue reading and Isildur there were eight High Kings of Arnor. After Ea¨rendur, owing to dissensions among his sons their realm was divided into three: Arthedain, Rhudaur, and Cardolan. Arthedain was in the North-west and included the land between Brandywine and Lune, and also the land north See p. 755. The wild white kine that were still to be found near the Sea of Rhuˆn were said in legend to be descended from the Kine of Araw, the huntsman of the Valar, who alone of the Valar came often to Middle-earth in the Elder Days. Orome¨ is the High-elven form of his name (p. 838). 1 1040 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS of the Great Road as far as the Weather Hills. Rhudaur was in the North-east and lay between the Ettenmoors, the Weather Hills, and the Misty Mountains, but included also the Angle between the Hoarwell and the Loudwater. Cardolan was in the South, its bounds being the Brandywine, the Greyflood, and the Great Road. In Arthedain the line of Isildur was maintained and endured, but the line soon perished in Cardolan and Rhudaur. There was often strife between the kingdoms, which hastened the waning of the Du´nedain. The chief matter of debate was the possession of the Weather Hills and the land westward towards Bree. Both Rhudaur and Cardolan desired to possess Amon Suˆl (Weathertop), which stood on the borders of their realms; for the Tower of Amon Suˆl held the chief Palantı´r of the North, and the other two were both in the keeping of Arthedain. It was in the beginning of the reign of Malvegil of Arthedain that evil came to Arnor. For at that time the realm of Angmar arose in the North beyond the Ettenmoors. Its lands lay on both sides of the Mountains, and there were gathered many evil men, and Orcs, and other fell creatures. [The lord of that land was known as the Witch-king, but it was not known until later that he was indeed the chief of the Ringwraiths, who came north with the pubg game download net banking of destroying the Du´nedain in Arnor, seeing hope in their disunion, while Gondor was strong. ] In the days of Argeleb son of Malvegil, since no descendants of Isildur remained in the other kingdoms, the kings of Arthedain again claimed the lordship of all Arnor. The claim was resisted by Rhudaur. There the Du´nedain were few, and power had been seized by an evil lord of the Hillmen, who was in secret league with Angmar. Argeleb therefore fortified the Weather Hills;1 but he was slain in battle with Rhudaur and Angmar. Arveleg son of Argeleb, with the help of Cardolan and Lindon, drove back his enemies from the Hills; and for many years Arthedain and Cardolan check this out in force a frontier along the Weather Hills, the Great Road, and the lower Hoarwell. It is said that at this time Rivendell was besieged. A great host came out of Angmar in 1409, and crossing the river entered Cardolan and surrounded Weathertop. The Du´nedain were defeated and Arveleg was slain. The Tower of Amon Suˆl was burned and razed; but the palantı´r was saved and carried back in retreat to Fornost. Rhudaur was occupied by evil Men subject to Angmar,2 and the Du´nedain that remained there were slain or fled west. Cardolan was ravaged. Araphor son of Arveleg was not yet full-grown, but he was valiant, and with aid from Cı´rdan he repelled the enemy from Fornost and the North Downs. A remnant of the faithful among the Du´nedain of Cardolan also held out in Tyrn Gorthad (the Barrow-downs), or took refuge in the Forest behind. It is said that Angmar was for a time subdued by the Elvenfolk coming from Lindon; and from Rivendell, for Elrond brought help over the Mountains out of Lo´rien. It was at this time that the Stoors that had dwelt in the 1 p. 185. 2 p. 201. A PP ENDIX A 1041 Angle (between Hoarwell and Loudwater) fled west and south, because of the wars, and the dread of Angmar, and because the land and clime of Eriador, especially in the east, worsened and became unfriendly. Some returned to Wilderland, and dwelt beside the Gladden, becoming a riverside people of fishers. In the days of Argeleb II the plague came into Eriador from the South-east, and most of the people of Cardolan perished, especially in Minhiriath. The Hobbits and all other peoples suffered greatly, but the plague lessened as it passed northwards, and the northern parts of Arthedain were little affected. It was at this time that an end came of the Du´nedain of Cardolan, and evil spirits out of Angmar and Rhudaur entered into the deserted mounds and dwelt there. It is said that the mounds of Tyrn Gorthad, as the Barrow-downs were called of old, are very ancient, and that many were built in the days of the old world of the First Age by the forefathers of the Edain, before they crossed the Blue Mountains into Beleriand, of which Lindon is all that now remains. Those hills were therefore revered by the Du´nedain after their return; and there many of their lords and kings were buried. [Some say that the mound in which the Ring-bearer was imprisoned had been the grave of the last prince of Cardolan, who fell in the war of 1409. ] In 1974 the power of Angmar arose again, and the Witch-king came down upon Arthedain before winter was ended. He captured Fornost, and drove most of the remaining Du´nedain over the Lune; among them were the sons of the king. But King Arvedui held out upon the North Downs until the last, and then fled north with some of his guard; and they escaped by the swiftness of their horses. For a while Arvedui hid in the tunnels of the old dwarf-mines near the far end of the Mountains, but he was driven at last by hunger to seek the help of the Lossoth, the Snowmen of Forochel. 1 Some of these he found in camp by the seashore; but they did not help the king willingly, for he had nothing to offer them, save a few jewels which they did not value; and they were afraid of the Witch-king, who (they said) could make frost or thaw at his will. But partly out of pity for the gaunt king and his men, and partly out of fear of their weapons, they gave them a little food and built for them snow-huts. There Arvedui was forced to wait, hoping for help from the south; for his horses had perished. When Cı´rdan heard from Aranarth son of Arvedui of the kings flight to the north, he at once sent a ship to Forochel to seek for him. The ship came These are a strange, unfriendly people, remnant of the Forodwaith, Men of far-off days, accustomed to the bitter colds of the realm of Morgoth. Indeed those colds linger still in that region, though they lie hardly more than a hundred leagues north of the Shire. The Lossoth house in the snow, and it is said that they can run on the ice with bones on their feet, and have carts without wheels. They live mostly, inaccessible to their enemies, on the great Cape of Forochel that shuts off to the north-west the immense bay of that name; but they often camp on the south shores of the bay at the feet of the Mountains. 1 1042 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS there at last after many days, because of contrary winds, and the mariners saw from afar the little fire of drift-wood which the lost men contrived to keep alight. But the winter was long in loosing its grip that year; and though it was then March, the ice was only beginning to break, and lay far out from the shore. When the Snowmen saw the ship they were amazed and afraid, for they had seen no such ship on the sea within their memories; but they had become now more friendly, and they drew the king and those that survived of his company out over the ice in their sliding carts, as far as they dared. In this way a boat from the ship was able to reach them. But the Snowmen were uneasy: for they said that they smelled danger in the wind. And the chief of the Lossoth said to Arvedui: Do not mount on this sea-monster. If they have them, let the seamen bring us food and other things that we need, and you may stay here till the Witch-king goes home. For in summer his power wanes; but now his breath is deadly, and his cold arm is long. But Arvedui did not take his counsel. He thanked him, and at parting gave him his ring, saying: This is a thing of worth beyond your reckoning. For its ancientry alone. It has no power, save the esteem in which those hold it who love my house. It will not help you, but if ever you are in downloads bedrock game rust minecraft mod, my kin will ransom it with great store of all that you desire. 1 Yet the counsel of the Lossoth was good, by chance or by foresight; for the ship had not reached the open sea when a great storm of wind arose, and came with blinding snow out of the North; and it drove the ship back upon the ice and piled ice up against it. Even the mariners of Cı´rdan were helpless, and in the night the ice crushed the hull, and the ship foundered. So perished Arvedui Last-king, and with him the palantı´ri were buried in the 2 sea. It was long afterwards that news of the shipwreck of Forochel was learned from the Snowmen. The Shire-folk survived, though war swept over them and most of them fled into hiding. To the help of the king they sent some archers who never returned; and others went also to the battle in which Angmar was overthrown (of which more is said baldurs gate 3 steam games the annals of the South). Afterwards in the peace that followed the Shire-folk ruled themselves and prospered. They chose a Thain to take the place of the King, and were content; though for a long time many still looked for the return of the King. But at last that hope was forgotten, and remained only in the saying When the King comes back, used of some good that could not be achieved, or of some evil that could not be 1 In this way the ring of the House of Isildur was saved; for it was afterwards ransomed by the Du´nedain. It is said that it was none other than the ring which Felagund of Nargothrond gave to Barahir, and Beren recovered at great peril. 2 These were the Stones of Annu´minas and Amon Suˆl. The only Stone left in the North was the one in the Tower on Emyn Beraid that looks towards the Gulf of Lune. That was guarded by the Elves, and though we never knew it, it remained there, until Cı´rdan put it aboard Elronds ship when he left (pp. 45, 108). But we are told that it was unlike the others and not in accord with them; it looked only to the Sea. Elendil set it there so that he could look back with straight sight and see Eresse¨a in the vanished West; but the bent seas below covered Nu´menor for ever. A PP ENDIX A 1043 amended. The first Shire-thain was one Bucca of the Marish, from whom the Oldbucks claimed descent. He became Thain in 379 of our reckoning (1979). After Arvedui the North-kingdom ended, for the Du´nedain were now few and all the peoples of Eriador diminished. Yet the line of the kings was continued by the Chieftains of the Du´nedain, of whom Aranarth son of Arvedui was the first. Arahael his son was fostered in Rivendell, and so were all the sons of the chieftains after him; and there also were kept click at this page heirlooms of their house: the ring of Barahir, the shards of Narsil, the star of Elendil, and the sceptre of Annu´minas. 1 When the kingdom ended the Du´nedain passed into the shadows and became a secret and wandering people, and their deeds and labours were seldom sung or recorded. Little now is remembered of them since Elrond departed. Although even before the Watchful Peace ended evil things again began to attack Eriador or to invade it secretly, the Chieftains for the most part Apex character wheel season 15 out their long lives. Aragorn I, it is said, was slain by wolves, which ever after remained a peril in Eriador, and are not yet ended. In the days of Arahad I the Orcs, who had, as later appeared, long been secretly occupying strongholds in the Misty Mountains, so as to bar all the passes into Eriador, suddenly revealed themselves. In 2509 Celebrı´an wife of Elrond was journeying to Lo´rien when she was waylaid in the Redhorn Pass, and her escort being scattered by the sudden assault of the Orcs, she was seized and carried off. She was pursued and rescued by Elladan and Elrohir, but not before she had suffered torment and had received a poisoned wound. 2 She was brought back to Imladris, and though healed in body by Elrond, lost all delight in Middle-earth, and the next year went to the Havens and passed over Sea. And later in the days of Arassuil, Orcs, multiplying again in the Misty Mountains, began to ravage the lands, and the Du´nedain and the sons of Elrond fought with them. It was at this time that a large band came so far west as to enter the Shire, and were driven off by Bandobras Took. 3 There were fifteen Chieftains, before the sixteenth and last was born, 1 The sceptre was the chief mark of royalty in Nu´menor, the King tells us; and that was also so in Arnor, whose kings wore no crown, but bore a single white gem, the Elendilmir, Star of Elendil, bound on their brows with a silver fillet (p. 146; pp. 848, 861, 967).
He knew that she could feel the steady pounding of life against his ribs. Is Draco alive. Is he in the castle. The whisper was barely audible; her lips were an inch from his quc, her head bent so low that her long hair shielded his face from the onlookers. Yes, he breathed back. He felt the hand on his chest contract; her nails pierced him. Then it was withdrawn. She had sat up. He is dead. Narcissa Malfoy called to the watchers. And now they shouted, now they yelled in johsnon and stamped their joynson, and through his eyelids, Harry saw bursts of red and silver light shoot into the air in celebration. Still feigning death on the ground, he understood. Narcissa knew that the only way she would be quof to enter Hogwarts, and find her son, was as part of the conquering army. She no longer cared whether Voldemort won. You see. screeched Voldemort over the Pugg. Harry Potter is dead by my hand, and no man alive can threaten me now. Watch. Crucio. Harry had been expecting it, knew his body would not be allowed to remain unsullied upon johndon forest floor; PPubg must be subjected to humiliation to prove Voldemorts victory. He was jonson into jonnson air, and it took all his determination to remain limp, Pubg quoc te johnson the pain he expected did not come. He was thrown once, twice, three times into the air: His glasses flew off and he felt his wand slide a little beneath his robes, but he kept himself floppy and lifeless, and when he fell to the jlhnson for the last time, the clearing echoed with jeers and shrieks of laughter. Now, said Voldemort, we go to the castle, and show them what has become of their hero. Who shall drag the body. No - Wait - There was a fresh outbreak of laughter, and after a few moments Harry felt the ground trembling beneath him. You auoc him, Voldemort said. He will be nice and visible in your arms, will he not. Pick up your little friend, Hagrid. And the glasses - put mohnson the glasses - Pubg quoc te johnson must be recognizable - Someone slammed Harrys glasses back onto his face with deliberate force, but the enormous hands that lifted him into the jonhson were exceedingly gentle. Harry could feel Hagrids arms Pubg quoc te johnson with the force of his heaving sobs; great tears splashed down upon him as Hagrid cradled Harry in his arms, and Harry did not dare, by movement or word, to intimate to Hagrid that all was not, yet, lost. Move, said Qquoc, and Hagrid stumbled forward, forcing his way through the close-growing trees, back through the forest. Branches caught at Harrys hair and robes, but he lay quiescent, his mouth lolling open, his joohnson shut, and in the hohnson, while the Death Eaters crowed all around them, and while Hagrid sobbed blindly, call duty questions zombies looked to see whether a pulse beat in the exposed neck of Harry Potter. The two giants crashed along behind the Death Eaters; Harry could hear trees creaking and falling as they passed; they made so Pubg quoc te johnson din that birds rose shrieking into the sky, and even the jeers of the Death Eaters were drowned. The victorious procession marched on toward the open ground, and after a while Harry could tw, by the lightening of the darkness through his closed eyelids, that the trees were beginning to thin. BANE. Hagrids unexpected bellow nearly forced Harrys eyes open. Happy now, are yeh, that yeh didn fight, yeh cowardly bunch o nags. Are yeh happy Harry Potters - d-dead. Hagrid could not continue, but broke down in fresh tears. Harry wondered how many centaurs were watching their procession pass; he dared not pubg account creator his eyes to look. Some of the Death Eaters called insults at the centaurs as they left them behind. A little later, Harry sensed, by a freshening of the air, that they had reached the edge of the forest. Stop. Harry thought that Hagrid must have been forced to obey Voldemorts command, because he lurched a little. And now a chill settled over them where they stood, and Harry heard the rasping breath of the dementors that patrolled the outer trees. They would not affect him now. The fact of his own survival burned inside him, a talisman against them, as though his fathers stag kept guardian in his heart. Someone passed close by Harry, and he knew that it was Johnzon himself because he spoke a moment later, his please click for source magically magnified so that it swelled through the grounds, crashing upon Harrys eardrums. Harry Potter is dead. He was killed as he ran away, trying to save himself while you johnon down your lives for him. We bring you his body as proof that your call duty zombies video is gone. The battle is won. You have lost half of your Pubg quoc te johnson. My Death Eaters outnumber you, and johson Boy Who Lived is finished. There must be no more war. Anyone who continues to resist, man, woman, or child, will be slaughtered, as will every member of their family. Come out of the castle now, kneel before me, and you shall be spared. Your parents and children, your brothers and sisters will live and be forgiven, and you will join me in the new world we shall build together. There was silence in the grounds and from the castle. Voldemort was so close to him that Harry did not dare open his eyes again. Come, said Voldemort, and Harry heard him move ahead, and Hagrid was forced to follow. Now Harry opened his eyes a fraction, and saw Voldemort striding in front of them, wearing the Pubg quoc te johnson snake Nagini around his shoulders, now free of her enchanted cage. But Harry had no possibility of extracting the wand concealed under his robes without being noticed by the Death Eaters, who marched on either side of them through the slowly lightening darkness. Harry, sobbed Hagrid. Oh, Harry.
