Marvel’s Princess Chapter 438: Thorin’s choice

 As she spoke, Bella noticed that the old dwarf frowned and his mind turned twice, and she woke up.

 "Of course I know the name of the elves in the Mines of Moria. Do you call it Kezad-dûm? What a name! After that, I had a big battle with this guy. I was a little injured, but I was able to kill this monster. Kill me, and then I will come to you..."

 Bella Balabala, explained what happened.

  The old dwarf was extremely excited and patted the back of her hand hard: "You are really a friend of our dwarves! Kezad-dûm, my beard! We dwarves have hope to rebuild Kezad-dûm!"

Ordinarily, as an old dwarf, he should not say to another human, "You are a friend of our dwarves," in front of Thorin, the dwarf king. He has no right to represent the dwarves. This is somewhat over the line. The young dwarf didn't understand. He was so old and usually cared about such things. He was really happy at this time, so happy that he was a little incoherent.

 Old dwarf Balin, Gimli's father, is said to be married to Groin, the most beautiful dwarf. Groin's brother Oin and the youngest dwarf Orli are both interested in Kezad-dûm, although they are not He said clearly that we should not go to Lonely Mountain and go to Kesadum first, but several people surrounded Bella and kept asking questions, and that meaning had already been revealed.

Several dwarves, including Thorin, are very interested in the Balrog, the archenemy of the clan. The fat dwarf Pompeo clung to the Balrog's head. If he didn't know the inside story, he would have thought he killed the Balrog. Woolen cloth.

 "Thorin, that is Kezad-dûm!" The dwarves refused to recognize the name of the mines of Moria, because this name is the name of the elves, and the word Moria contains ominous, disaster, and calamity. Waiting for the negative meaning, the dwarves will never admit that their homeland is a disaster, and they often fight with the elves because of this name.

 "The Balrog is dead, we can go home, all the dwarves can go home! You are the King of Kezad-dûm!" The old dwarf's tone was full of expectation.

 Thorin clenched his hands, and it could be seen that he was extremely hesitant in his heart.

The Lonely Mountain is certainly the home of the dwarves, but Kezad-dûm is the ancient kingdom of the dwarves.

  It is huge both in terms of symbolic and practical significance.

 The news has not leaked out at this time, and they are the closest to Kesadum. Thorin himself still has the most orthodox inheritance rights of the Turin dwarves, and he can claim to be the king of Kessadum.

But if he succeeds to the throne of Kesadoum, he will definitely not be able to go to Lonely Mountain.

You can only choose one of the two, the Lonely Mountain and Kezadum. For the Turin dwarves, Kezadum is obviously more glorious. Many dwarves would rather sacrifice their lives to rebuild this country.

 If nothing else, the old dwarf Balin has this right. Although from a blood point of view, his relationship with Thorin is like the relationship between Emperor Liu and Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, but if you push it forward, you still have the right to inherit. .

 It can even be said that most of the thirteen dwarves in the team at this time have this right. They are all descendants of the Turin dwarves. If Thorin is not willing to inherit the main line, the dwarves of their other branches can go inherit.

  Bela spoke at the right time: "I have no hostility towards Kesadum, but the situation in Kessadum is not good now. There are many strong enemies around..."

  She repeated what she had said to Elrond and Galadriel, and then left the choice to Thorin.

 The old dwarf has always been very friendly to Bella, and now he rarely refutes her: "What about the orcs? There are thousands of orcs in Dol Guldur? Kezad-dûm is the home of the dwarves, we are in our own Don’t be afraid of any enemies in your homeland!”

 Not afraid of any enemy? Then why were you beaten out by the Balrog? Bella opened her mouth, but finally swallowed her words. No matter how good the outside world was, it was not as good as her own home. She still understood this. She nodded to respect the dwarves' expectations and desires for their home.

  The old dwarf squeezed Thorin's hand tightly and said with great strength: "We can call on our kin in the Blue Mountains. Groin's kin can also help. What about Dane? The Iron Hills of Dann will also help. Ours! If that doesn't work, we'll ask Firebeard and Iron Fist for help! Kesadoum is the home of the Turin dwarves, we can't give up!"

 The old dwarf was so excited that his face was filled with tears, and his white beard was wet with tears, but he didn't care at all. He just looked at Thorin nervously, waiting for his answer.

 The old dwarf saw his hesitation and added fuel to the fire: "Thorin, think about your grandfather. The half-orc Asog chopped off your grandfather's head! Do you remember? Think about your grandfather." Father, Thorne who disappeared in Kesadoum, starting from Nain who was expelled by the Balrog, to your grandfather, to your father, to you, have you forgotten the blood feud of the four generations of dwarf kings? ”

 Seeing that the old dwarf did not care about etiquette at all, abandoned his usual gentleness and kindness, and scolded Thorin harshly, Bella sighed softly, and things fell into the expectations of Elrond and Galadriel, and she could not He understands elves, but now he seems not to understand dwarves.

 She knew the answer without reading minds.

 Having said this, Thorin simply couldn't refuse. Even if he was full of yearning for Lonely Mountain in his heart, he had to give up.

Thorin from the original time and space proved this. In his heart, blood feud was more important than treasure, not to mention that the crown of Kesadoum was more important than the crown of Erub of the Lonely Mountain.

 Thorin Oakenshield's eyes became firm, and in the next second, he made up his mind completely.

 “Okay! Let’s gather the tribesmen! Return to Kesad-dûm!”

His voice was so loud that all the dwarves who had been following his lead cheered in unison.

  To put it more gloomily, no one is a fool. Originally, there were dragons in the Lonely Mountain and Balrogs in Kesad-dum. In the eyes of the dwarves, these two places are almost the same. They are both places where there is a narrow escape from death. Now the Balrogs have been destroyed. After pulling him to death, the morale of the dwarves instantly rose. Orcs? Orcs are nothing! If you find more people, you can always kill them!

  Dwarves can't do anything against Balrogs or Dragons, but they have experience in dealing with Orcs.

　Thorin's face was full of shame. He walked up to Bella. The iron-clad man lowered his head, not knowing how to speak.

 Bella sighed softly: "It seems we are going to part ways here."

 She wants to find a place for everyone in Narnia to settle down, and cannot jump into the fire pit of Kezad-dûm.

 Thorin is a very decisive leader. In order to make up for it, he offered a huge profit: "In fact, you can take your people to Lonely Mountain, where there is a ruins called River Valley Town, where you can settle your family. The clansmen are more than enough.”

Bela is noncommittal, Smaug is in the mountains, you give me land? Then you have to ask Smaug if he agrees.

Thorin said sternly: "If you can kill the Balrog, then you must also have some way to deal with the dragon. I don't care what you do. The treasures in the mountains and the land of the Gushan belong to you. That's what you killed." The dead Balrog and the evil dragon deserve the reward. You only need to give me the Arkenstone. This is the promise of the Dwarf King of Turin."
