A few minutes later, the two of them saw the lake, and in the snow-capped world, a blue lake suddenly appeared, which was actually quite conspicuous.Not to mention the fact that there is a large area of green meadow by the lake, and a large fiery forest, which spreads to the north, but is stopped by a black hill, and on the other side of the mountain is the world of ice and snow.It doesn't look like the depths of the north at all, but it's reminiscent of the southern coast.The two of them landed on the edge of the lake, and Hermione, after getting permission, reached out and pulled the water, and found that the water was not only not cold at all, but even unusually warm."
I didn't see any other rivers, maybe it was a geothermal hot spring, but there was no smell of sulfur and no heat rising in the sky, which was strange."
With some curiosity, she picked up a little water in her small hand and put it to her nose, "This is the magic of the old gods in this world, it is easy to change the world in its heyday, even in the decay of the present, it is still possible to create a special area between the ice and snow." ”Su Ming watched the fish swim around in the lake, and let the strangulation fish one out: "We're going to visit a druid, bring some gifts." ”This wild fish is quite large, and the species is unknown."
But I always feel that it's a bit miserable to live in seclusion here, the surroundings are deserted, and it's really okay to fall into this situation even though you're a spellcaster?"
The little witch shook her hand, stood up and looked around.It's fine when you look down from the air, but when you fall on the ground, you always feel an indescribable sense of loneliness when you look at the snowy scenery that is the same in all four directions."
It's a long story, let's go into the woods first, and I'll tell you about it."
Deathstroke pulled out a few sticks of grass and rubbed the rope, passed through the gill cover of the big fish, and casually lifted it, and the fish's blood drew a dotted line on the ground, and the two walked towards the red forest. ...................These trees are all Weirwood, a deciduous tree that was originally found throughout Westeros, but is not found anywhere else on such a large scale.The bark of the tree is pale, the leaves are dark red, like the palms of bloodstained hands, and the trunk of the tree is carved with a human face, which can be said to be very terrifying if it is seen by ordinary people at night.These faces are said to have been carved by the ancient 'Children of the Forest' before their ancestors crossed the sea to worship the old gods.After the arrival of the ancestors, they gradually accepted the belief of the old gods, followed this custom, and continued to carve on the fish beam wood.Every few decades, when the stars reach a certain position, people will also squeeze the red juice from the leaves of the fish beam tree, and dye the eyes carved by the human face red, and whenever the sap melts and flows, it looks like the tree is crying blood.Trees play an important role in the Old Gods of this continent, even the noble families who have embraced this faith.They would set aside a large open space in their castle to plant various trees, called the Sacred Tree Forest, and then plant a fish beam tree in the Sacred Tree Forest, which was called the Heart Tree.The Heart Tree is very sacred to the followers of the Old Gods, who pray, swear, and make marriage contracts in front of the tree, believing that in this way they will receive the testimony of the Old Gods, and those who disobey will not die a good death.The Green Prophet that Deathstroke is visiting on this trip has the same ability as a druid, and can connect to the Fishbeam Wood to monitor the distance of a certain Fishbeam Tree tens of thousands of kilometers away, and at the same time read the memories of the tree.An oak tree can live for 300 years, a mahogany tree can live for 3,000 years, and a fish beam tree can live forever without being disturbed by external forces, so it can be said to be a living database.Forever in the true sense of the word, until the moment when the world is destroyed.However, with the invasion of the Andals bringing the belief in the Seven Gods, the southern Fish Beam Wood was eradicated, leaving only the unconquered North, which was still widely used.Sometimes the wildlings bow down to the trees, chant incomprehensible languages, are closer to their ancestors, and even have some magic to communicate with animals.Why is there so much fish beam wood found here by Deathknell?
Not naturally, of course, but after the invasion of the Seven Gods, the Green Prophets retreated north, and their servants brought a large number of seeds to create a new 'Peach Blossom Spring' here.These servants are the sons of the forest.They were the natives of Westeros before, and they lived in various parts of the continent long before the ancestors of the Dawn came to Westeros.There is too much to know about the children of the forest for the inhabitants of this world today, a magical humanoid race that has disappeared from human sight for years.In legend, poets and historians have described them as dwarf, humanoids, not much taller than children, with pale gray skin and beautiful faces, and the giants called them 'Utar Nagant', which means squirrel people.And Su Ming knew more information, the children of the forest in their own 'source language', meaning "the one who sings the praises of the earth".Like the other world's druids that believe in nature, the Children of the Forest do not use metal, animal skins, or cities.They used stone tools, weaving clothes from leaves and leggings from bark, and used to live only in the depths of the forest, caves, sze islands, and secret trees, making it seem as if they were at one with the forest.The Children of the Forest possess supernatural powers, are able to use magic, and can harness the beasts of the jungle, even taking on the form of beasts.In addition, they are kind-natured, good at bows and arrows, and love music, and it is said that hearing their tunes can make the executioner cry like a baby.Given these characteristics, Su Ming thought they might be some kind of half-elf, maybe a hybrid of a dwarf and an elf?
But could it also be a magical creation of the Old Gods?
It's kind of interesting anyway. .......................Walking in the woods, Knell was telling these stories to the students, and just as he finished guessing the origin of the children of the forest, a woman's voice suddenly came from the trees next to him: "Human, get out of here, this is our territory." ”After hearing this voice, Su Ming smiled, he turned his head to look at the fish beam wood on the side, between the red palm-like leaves, a small face was revealed, she looked puffed, and the continental lingua franca was very standard.It was a language Hermione didn't understand, but it was fine for Knell, who had previously read the basic ability of language by strangling the brains of the three dead Night's Watchmen.Holding down Hermione, who was about to draw her pistol, handed the big fish to her apprentice, Knell beckoned to the tree, and also asked in the continental lingua franca: "Is it 'leaf'?"
I am the Supreme Mage Deathbell, and I have come to visit the last Green Prophet of the North, the Three-Eyed Raven. ”
