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

!

'

'

Do

n't

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

have

n't

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

.

Wo

n't

you

tell

us

some

more

?

'

'

Not

willingly

,

'

said

Gimli

.

'

For

upon

that

road

I

was

put

to

shame

:

Gimli

Glóin

's

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

his

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

Éowyn

,

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

they

overtook

our

horses

,

and

swept

round

us

,

and

would

have

passed

us

by

,

if

Aragorn

had

not

forbidden

them

.
