(Excerpt from the cartoon Lord of the Rings). Today there was a main council that decided the fate of the great ring that threatened the whole world, the Ring of Omnipotence: —Foreigners and acquaintances, thank you for coming to the council, today we will decide the fate of the world! Frodo, show me the ring! Elrond saw that Frodo was scared, so he walked slowly to the round table, he understood that Frodo was young and the salvation of the world was on his shoulders. Frodo put the round ring on the table, everyone looked attentively at the ring and suddenly Faragorn stood up and walked towards the ring: —Faragorn, stop!— Elrond screamed. Faragorn kept coming closer and then Gandalf used magic and everything went dark. Dark clouds appeared, a cold wind blew, and Faragorn managed to wake up: —The Great Ring beckons with its dark magic, so that it can be put on, so that Nada can destroy it! —So let me do it!—Gimli shouted and hit the ring hard with his ax, but instead of the ring, Gimli's ax broke. Elrond knew that the great ring could not be destroyed with simple weapons, there were only two ways: Either destroy the ring in the lava of the Mordor volcano or destroy the ring with the sword that Arendelle wore! —Gimli, son Gloina, this ring cannot be destroyed just like that, Nada should take it to the place where this ring was created, the lava of the fatal mountain of Mordor! Elrond looked at Frodo, his head ached wildly and Elrond looked at Frodo, his head was hurting wildly and Elrond understood why: —It’s a pity that the great Elf of Arendelle did not survive, she would have destroyed the ring with her sword!—Balin said. —Does she have any descendants?—Gimli asked —Yes, but he doesn’t want to admit it! Elrond, stop hiding the fact that you are a descendant of the great Arendelle!—Gandalf stood up from the table and looked at Elrond with serious eyes. Everyone except Gandalf was in shock, Elrond was very angry, Gandalf told the council about his aunt Arendelle: —Gandalf, you say that I am the nephew of my aunt Arendelle, I am not worthy of the ring of the Blu Sea! —So Arendelle didn’t have time to tell you the truth!—Looked with sad eyes—Elrond, you are actually the great grandson of the great Arendelle, she is not your Aunt! —I don’t believe it, my aunt couldn’t lie! —Wait, so you want to say that all along the great descendant of Arendelle was Elrond?—asked Balin - Elrond is the son Eärendil and the great Elf Elwing! —Yes, this is true, but according to the pedigree, Arendelle is the grandmother of Earendil! Gandalf, shut your mouth!—Elrond shouted very loudly out of nerves. Elrond blamed himself for the death of Arendelle, he could not believe that his aunt lied and was actually Grandmother, Elrond also did not want to wear the ring of the Blue Sea: —Elrond, I understand how you feel, but you are not to blame for the death of your grandmother, as it is written in the book of life and also, she lied to you so that in the future you could wear a ring! —Gandalf, don't even force me to wear this ring, I'm not worthy of it! Suddenly Elrond heard the voices of the ring of Omnipotence, Elrond realized that because of negative emotions, the ring penetrated his consciousness: —Elrond, come on, put on the ring and you will become the ruler of the world, I will give you the opportunity to find out your past! Elrond felt weakness in his body and fell, but managed to catch himself with his handElrond felt weakness in his body and fell, but managed to catch himself with his hand: —Elrond!—shouted Aragorn and ran to his adoptive father. Gandalf approached Elrond and saw that Elrond’s consciousness was still normal, but it had weakened: —Elrond, clear your mind of anger and guilt, because you have blamed yourself for 6493 years, your consciousness has weakened! —Gandalf, I am not worthy of the ring because I could not save my aunt, my dear... —I understand everything, but Elrond, your Aunt Arendelle loves you and does not blame you for her death, you are a descendant of Arendelle and you are worthy of the ring! Elrond looked at Aragorn, his adopted son. He looked at him calmly and stroked his head: —Gandalf, give my adopted Father a rest!—Aragorn asked. —Okay, I'll give him a rest! Gandalf touched Elrond's forehead, Elrond said: —Don't worry about me, decide which of you will go to Mordor and quickly destroy the ring! —Then who will be with you?—Legolas asked. —If anything, a servant and my sons and daughter will follow me! The Council decided that Frodo and his friends, Gandalf, Gimli, Aragorn, Legolas and Faragorn, would go on a great journey. Elrond leaned on the railing, but still heard voices: —Elrond, our great Lord and master, accept your fate, the dark Lord!***
Elladan and Elrohir were at training and they did not know that there was a council and their father had a headache. They fought among themselves and they were always on equal terms: —Well done brother, you are on par with me!—Elladan said. —Elladan, I was born at the same time as you, and you think that I am your younger brother! —Well, you are the eldest for me, and you probably consider me the runner-up! —Brothers, stop arguing among yourselves! Elladan and Elrohir saw their little sister Arvayne running towards them excitedly: —Arvain, what is it? —Our father got a headache because of the ring, he’s weak now! —So he has resistance against the ring!—Elrohir said —Gandalf said that because of anger and guilt, our father's consciousness weakened! Elladan and Elrohir looked at each otherElladan and Elrohir looked at each other and ran after Arvayne. After some time, they reached their father's room. Elrond lay on the sofa and held his head: —Father, your head hurts!—Elladan asked —A little yes, Elrohir, give me this box, Red on the table! Elrohir handed the box to Elrond and opened it, there was the Ring of the Blue Sea. He picked it up and his head immediately went away: —Thank you, I already feel better! —Father, is Arendelle actually our Great Great Grandmother?—Arvayne asked. —I don’t know, children, I haven’t yet realized what Gandalf was saying. —Father, today we will be in the palace so as not to disturb you!—said Elrohir —Thank you my children, your grandfather would be proud of you! Elrohir and Elladan went to their rooms. Elladan had blue clothes and carried a bow and a sword, and Elrohir had light clothes and, like his brother, wore a bow and sword. They were an exact copy, but they could still be distinguished because of what they received scars. Elladan had it on his eye and Elrohir had it on his cheek. Elrohir was in his room and did not have time to reach the window, when suddenly he felt a strong pain in his head, he began to hold his head: —How strong you are, Elrohir, you could become the ruler of Rivendell or even Middle Earth! —Are you from me?Whatever you want from me, I still love my family! —Fate will show which of you brothers will turn to the dark side! The voices in his head stopped, Elrohir realized that the Ring probably wanted to capture the minds of Elladan and Elrohir, but they told themselves that they would love their family and each other, no matter what?
