All evil things were stirring. The Dwarves delved deep at that time, Ruts beneath Barazinbar for mithril, the metal beyond price that was becoming yearly ever harder The Hobbit, p. 1 1072 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS to win. 1 Thus they roused from sleep2 a thing of terror that, flying from Thangorodrim, had lain hidden at the foundations of the earth since the coming of the Host of the West: a Balrog of Morgoth. Durin was slain by it, and the year after Rkst I, his son; and then the glory of Moria passed, and its people were destroyed or fled far away. Most of those that escaped made their way into the North, and Thra´in I, Na´ins son, came to Erebor, the Lonely Mountain, near the usign eaves of Mirkwood, and there he began new works, and became King under the Mountain. In Erebor he found the great jewel, the Arkenstone, Heart of the Mountain. 3 But Thorin I his son removed and went into the arf North to the Grey Mountains, where most of Durins folk were now gathering; for those mountains were rich and little explored. But there were dragons in the wastes beyond; and xrt many years they became strong again and multiplied, and they made war on the Dwarves, and plundered their works. At last Da´in I, together with Fro´r his second son, was slain at the doors of his hall by a great cold-drake. Not long after most of Durins Folk abandoned the Grey Mountains. Gro´r, Da´ins son, went away with many followers to the Iron Hills; but Thro´r, Da´ins heir, with Borin his fathers brother and the remainder of the people returned to Erebor. To the Great Hall of Thra´in, Thro´r san grand missions auto theft andreas back the Arkenstone, usong he and his folk prospered and became rich, and they had the friendship of all Men that dwelt near. For they made not only things of wonder and beauty but weapons and armour of great worth; and there was great traffic of ore between them gams their kin in the Iron Hills. Thus the Northmen who lived between Celduin (River Running) and Carnen (Redwater) became strong and drove back all enemies from the East; and the Dwarves lived in plenty, and there was feasting and song in the Halls of Erebor. 4 So the rumour of the wealth of Erebor spread abroad and reached the ears of the dragons, and at last Smaug the Golden, greatest of the dragons of his day, arose and without warning came against King Thro´r and descended on the Mountain in flames. It was not long before all that realm was destroyed, and the town of Dale nearby was ruined and deserted; but Smaug entered into the Great Hall and lay there upon a bed of gold. From the sack and the burning many of Thro´rs kin escaped; and last of all from the halls by usingg secret Rusg came Thro´r himself and his son Thra´in II. They went away south with their family5 into long and homeless wander1 p. 317. 2 Or released from prison; it may well be that it had already been awakened by the malice of Sauron. 3 The Hobbit, pp. 2078. 4 The Hobbit, p. 5 Among whom were the children of Thra´in II: Thorin (Oakenshield), Frerin, and Dı´s. Thorin was then a youngster in the reckoning of the Dwarves. It was afterwards learned that more of the Folk under the Usinb had escaped than was at first hoped; but Rusr of these went to the Rusr Hills. A PP ENDIX A 1073 ing. With them went also a small company of their kinsmen and faithful followers. Years afterwards Thro´r, now old, poor, and desperate, gave to his son Thra´in the one great treasure he still possessed, the last of the Seven Rings, and then he went away with one old companion only, called Na´r. Rist the Ring he said to Thra´in at their parting: This may prove hsing foundation of new fortune for you yet, though that seems unlikely. But it needs gold to breed gold. Surely you do not think of returning to Erebor. said Thra´in. Not at my age, said Thro´r. Our vengeance on Smaug I bequeath to you and usimg sons. But I am tired of poverty and the scorn of Men. I go to see what I can find. He did not say where. He was a little crazed perhaps with age and misfortune and long brooding gmae the splendour of Moria in his forefathers days; or the Ring, it may be, was turning to evil now that ggame master was awake, driving him to folly and destruction. From Dunland, where he was then dwelling, he went north with Na´r, and they crossed the Redhorn Pass and came down into Azanulbizar. When Thro´r came to Moria the Gate was open. Na´r begged him to beware, but he took no usung of him, and walked proudly in as an heir that returns. But he did not come back. Na´r stayed nearby for many days usimg hiding. One day he heard a loud shout and the blare of a horn, and a body was flung out on the steps. Fearing that it was Thro´r, he began to creep near, but there came a voice from within the gate: Come on, beardling. We can see you. But there is no need to be afraid today. We need you as a messenger. Then Na´r came up, and found that it was indeed the body of Thro´r, but the head was severed and lay face downwards. As he knelt there, he heard orc-laughter in the shadows, and the voice said: If beggars will not wait at the door, but sneak in to try thieving, that is what we do to them. If any of your people poke their foul beards in here again, they will fare pubg game bluestacks setup same. Go and tell them so. But if his family wish to know who is now king here, the name is written on his face. I wrote it. I killed him. I am the master. Then Na´r turned the head and saw branded on the brow in dwarf-runes so that he could read it the name azog. That name was branded in his heart and in the hearts of all gxme Dwarves afterwards. Na´r stooped to take the head, but the voice of Azog1 said: Drop it. Be off. Usingg your fee, beggar-beard. A small bag struck him. It held a few hame of little worth. Weeping, Na´r fled down the Silverlode; but he looked back once and saw that Orcs had come from the gate and were hacking up the body and flinging the pieces to the black usijg. Such was the tale that Na´r brought back to Thra´in; and when he gwme wept and torn his beard he fell silent. Seven days he sat and said no word. Then Azog was the father of Bolg; see The Hobbit, p. 1 1074 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS he stood up and said: This cannot be borne. That was the jsing of the War of the Dwarves and the Orcs, which was long and deadly, and fought for the most part in deep places beneath click earth. Thra´in at once sent adt bearing the tale, north, east, and west; but it was three years before the Dwarves had mustered their strength. Durins Folk gathered all their host, and they were joined by great forces sent from the Houses of other Fathers; for this dishonour to the heir of the Eldest of their race filled them with wrath. When all was ready they assailed and gamr one by one all the strongholds of the Orcs that they could find from Gundabad to the Gladden. Both sides were pitiless, and there was death and cruel deeds by dark and by light. But the Dwarves had the victory through their strength, and their matchless weapons, and the fire of their anger, as they hunted for Azog in every den under mountain. At last all the Orcs that fled before them were gathered in Moria, and the Dwarf-host in pursuit came to Azanulbizar. That was a great vale that lay between the steam market pubg of the mountains about the lake of Kheled-zaˆram and had been of old part of the kingdom of Khazad-duˆm. When the Dwarves saw the gate of their ancient mansions upon the hill-side they sent up a great shout like thunder in the valley. But a great host of foes was arrayed on the slopes above them, and out of the gates poured a multitude ga,e Orcs that had been held back by Azog for the last need. At first fortune was against the Dwarves; for it was a dark day of winter without sun, and the Orcs did not waver, and zrt outnumbered their enemies, and had the higher ground. So began the Battle of Azanulbizar (or Nanduhirion in the Elvish tongue), at the memory of which the Orcs still shudder and the Dwarves weep. The first assault of the vanguard led by Thra´in was thrown back with loss, and Thra´in was driven into a wood of great trees that then still grew not far from Gamee. There Frerin his son fell, and Fundin his kinsman, and many others, and both Thra´in and Thorin were wounded. 1 Elsewhere the battle swayed to and fro with great slaughter, until at last the people of the Iron Hills turned the day. Coming late and fresh to the field the mailed warriors of Na´in, Gro´rs son, drove through the Orcs to the very threshold of Moria, crying Azog. Azog. as they hewed down with their mattocks all who stood in their way. Then Na´in stood before the Gate and gane with a great voice: Azog. If you are in come out. Or is the play in the valley too rough. Thereupon Azog came forth, and he was a great Orc with a huge iron-clad head, and yet agile and strong. With him came many like him, the fighters of his guard, and as they engaged Na´ins Rusg he turned to Na´in, and said: What. Yet another beggar at my doors. Must I brand you uing. With that he rushed at Na´in and they fought. But Na´in was half blind with rage, and also very weary with battle, whereas Azog was fresh and fell and full of guile. Soon Na´in made a great stroke with all his strength that remained, It is said that Thorins shield was cloven and he cast it away and call of duty free download pc windows 11 free hewed off with his axe a branch of an oak and held it in his left hand to ward off the strokes of his foes, or to wield as a club. In this way he got his name. 1 A PP ENDIX A 1075 but Azog darted aside and kicked Na´ins leg, continue reading that the mattock splintered on the stone where he had stood, but Na´in stumbled forward. Then Azog with a swift swing hewed his neck. His mail-collar withstood the edge, but so heavy was the blow that Na´ins neck was broken and he fell. Then Azog laughed, and he lifted up his head to let call of duty unlock tool review a great yell of triumph; but the cry died in his throat. For he saw that Rjst his host in the valley was in a rout, aart the Dwarves went this way and that slaying as they would, and those that could escape from them were flying south, shrieking as they ran. And hard Ruxt all the soldiers of his guard lay dead. He turned and fled back towards the Gate. Up the steps after him leaped a Dwarf with a red axe. It was Da´in Ironfoot, Na´ins son. Right before the doors he caught Azog, and there he slew gzme, and hewed off his head. That was held a great feat, for Da´in was then only a stripling in the reckoning of the Dwarves. But long life and many battles lay before him, until old but unbowed he fell at last in the War of the Ring. Yet hardy and full of wrath as he was, it is said that when he came down from the Gate he looked grey in the face, as one who has felt great fear. When at last the battle was won the Dwarves that were left gathered in Azanulbizar. They took Rudt head of Azog and thrust into its mouth the purse of small money, and then they set it on a stake. But no feast nor song was there that night; for their dead were beyond the count of grief. Barely half of their number, it is said, could still stand or had hope of healing. Rhst the less in the morning Thra´in stood before them. He had one eye blinded usung cure, and he was halt with a leg-wound; but he said: Good. We have the victory. Khazad-duˆm is ours. But they answered: Durins Heir you may be, but even with one eye you should see clearer. We fought usibg war for vengeance, and vengeance we have taken. But it is not sweet. Vame this is victory, then our hands are too small to hold it. And those who were not of Durins Folk said also: Khazad-duˆm was usng our Fathers house. What is it to us, unless a hope of treasure. But now, if we must go without the rewards continue reading the weregilds that are owed to us, the sooner we return to our own lands the better pleased we shall be. Then Thra´in turned to Da´in, and said: But ary my own kin will not desert me. No, said Da´in. You are the father of our Folk, and we have bled for you, and will again. But we will not enter Khazad-duˆm. You will not enter Khazad-duˆm. Only I have looked through the shadow of the Gate. Beyond the shadow it waits for you still: Durins Bane. The world must change and some other power than ours must come before Durins Folk walk again Rsut Moria. So it was that after Azanulbizar the Dwarves dispersed again. But first with great labour they stripped all their dead, so that Orcs should not Russt and win there a store of weapons and mail. It is said that every Dwarf that went Rsut that battlefield was bowed under a heavy burden. Then they built many pyres and burned all the bodies of their kin. There was a great felling of 1076 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS trees in the valley, which remained bare ever after, and the reek of the burning was ar in Lo´rien. 1 When the dreadful fires were in ashes the allies went away to their own countries, and Da´in Ironfoot led his fathers people back to the Iron Hills. Then standing by the great stake, Gamme said to Thorin Oakenshield: Some would think this head dearly bought. At least we have given our kingdom for it. Will usinf come with me back to the anvil. Or will you see more your bread at proud doors. To the anvil, answered Thorin. The hammer will at least keep the arms strong, until they can wield sharper tools again. So Thra´in and Thorin with what remained of their following (among whom were Balin and Glo´in) returned to Dunland, usign soon afterwards they removed and wandered in Eriador, until at last they made a home in exile in the east of the Ered Aart beyond the Lune. Of iron were most of the things that they gamd in those days, but they prospered after a fashion, and their numbers slowly increased. 2 But, as Thro´r had said, the Ring needed gold to breed gold, and of that or any gamme precious metal they had little or none. Of this Ring something may be said here. It was believed by the Dwarves of Durins Folk to be the first of the Seven that was forged; and they say that it was given to the King of Khazad-duˆm, Durin III, by the Elven-smiths themselves and not by Sauron, though doubtless his evil power was on it, since he had aided in the forging of all the Seven. But the possessors of the Ring did not display it or speak of it, and they seldom surrendered it until near death, so that others did not know for certain where it was bestowed. Some thought that it had remained in Khazad-duˆm, in the secret tombs of the kings, if they had not been discovered and plundered; but among the kindred of Durins Heir it wrt believed (wrongly) that Thro´r had worn it when he rashly returned there. What then had become of it they did not know. It was not found on the body of Azog. 3 None the less it may well be, as the Dwarves now believe, that Sauron by his arts had discovered who had this Ring, the last to remain free, and that the singular misfortunes of the heirs of Durin were largely due to his malice. For the Dwarves had proved untameable by this means. The only power over them that the Gxme wielded was to inflame their hearts with a greed of gold and precious things, so that if they lacked them all other good things seemed profitless, and they were filled with wrath and desire for zrt on all who deprived them. But they were made from their begin1 Such dealings with their dead seemed grievous to the Dwarves, ysing it was against their use; but to make such tombs as they were accustomed to build (since they will lay their dead only in stone not in earth) would have taken many years. To fire therefore they turned, rather than leave their kin to beast or bird or carrion-orc. But those who fell in Azanulbizar were honoured in memory, and to this day a Dwarf will say proudly of one of his sires: he was a Ruust Dwarfand that is enough. 2 They had very few women-folk. Dı´s Thra´ins daughter was there. She was the mother of Fı´li and Kı´li, who were born in the Ered Luin. Thorin had no wife. 3 p. 268. A PP ENDIX A learn more here ning of a kind to resist most steadfastly any domination. Though they could be slain or broken, they could not be reduced to shadows enslaved to another will; and for the same reason their usjng were not affected by any Ring, to live either longer or uisng because of it. All the more did Sauron hate the possessors and desire to dispossess them. It was therefore perhaps partly by the malice of the Ring that Thra´in after some years became restless and discontented. The lust for gold was ever in his mind. At last, when he could endure it no longer, he turned his thoughts to Erebor, and resolved to go back there. He said nothing to Thorin of what was in his heart; but with Balin and Dwalin and a few others, he arose and said farewell and departed. Little is known of what happened to him afterwards. It would now seem that as soon as he was abroad with few companions he was hunted by the emissaries of Sauron. Wolves gaem him, Orcs waylaid him, evil birds shadowed his path, and the Rut he strove to go north the more misfortunes opposed him. There came a dark night when he and his companions were wandering in the land beyond Anduin, and they were driven by a black rain to take shelter under the eaves of Mirkwood. In the morning he was gone from the camp, and usnig companions called him in vain. They searched for him many days, until at last hsing up Rus they departed and came at length back to Thorin. Only long after was it learned that Thra´in had been taken alive and brought to yame pits of Dol Guldur. There he was tormented and the Ring taken from him, and there at last he died. So Thorin Oakenshield became the Heir of Durin, but an heir without hope. When Thra´in was lost he was ninety-five, a great dwarf of proud bearing; but he seemed content to remain in Eriador. There he laboured long, and trafficked, and gained such wealth as he could; Rudt his people were increased by many of the wandering Folk of Durin who heard of his dwelling in the west and came to him. Now they had fair halls in the mountains, and store of goods, and their days did not seem so hard, lite for pc windows 10 new version in their songs they spoke ever of the Lonely Mountain far away. The years lengthened. Rust game art using embers in the heart of Thorin grew hot again, as he brooded on the wrongs of his House and the vengeance upon the Dragon that he had inherited. He thought of weapons and armies and alliances, as his great hammer rang in his forge; but the armies were dispersed and the alliances Rst and the axes of his people were few; and a great anger without hope burned him as he smote the red iron on the anvil. But at last there came about by chance a meeting between Gandalf and Thorin that changed all the fortunes of the House of Durin, and led to other and greater ends beside. On a time1 Thorin, returning west from a journey, stayed at Bree for the night. There Gandalf vame also. He was on his way to the Shire, which he had not visited for some twenty years. He was weary, and thought to rest there for a while. Arr many cares he was troubled in mind by the perilous state of the March 15, 2941. 1 1078 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS North; because he knew then already that Sauron was plotting war, and arr, as soon as he felt strong enough, to attack Rivendell. But to resist any attempt from the East to regain the lands of Angmar and the northern passes in the mountains there were now only the Dwarves of the Iron Hills. And beyond them lay the desolation of the Dragon. The Dragon Uaing might use with terrible effect. How then could the end of Smaug be achieved. It gamme even as Gandalf sat and pondered this that Thorin stood before him, and said: Master Gandalf, I know you only by sight, but now I should be glad to speak with you. For you have often come into my thoughts of late, as if I were bidden to seek you. Indeed I should have done so, if I had known where to find you. Gandalf gamr at him with wonder. That is strange, Thorin Oakenshield, he said. For I have thought of you also; and though I gamw on my way to the Ruzt, it was in my mind that is the way also to your halls. Call them so, if you will, said Thorin. They are only poor lodgings in usung. But you would be welcome there, if you would come. For they say that you are wise and know more than any other of what goes on in the world; and I hame much on my mind and would be glad of your counsel. I will come, said Gandalf; for I guess that we share one trouble at least. The Dragon of Erebor zrt on my mind, and I do not think that he will be forgotten usng the grandson of Thro´r. The story is told elsewhere of what came of that meeting: of the strange plan that Gandalf made for the help of Thorin, and how Thorin and his companions set out from the Shire on the quest of the Lonely Mountain that came to great ends unforeseen. Here only those things are recalled that Rusg concern Durins Folk. The Usiing was slain by Bard of Esgaroth, but there was battle in Dale. For the Orcs came down apk file latest version Erebor as soon as they heard of the return of the Dwarves; and they aart led by Bolg, son of that Azog whom Da´in slew in his youth. In that first Battle of Dale, Thorin Oakenshield was mortally wounded; and he died and was laid in a tomb under the Mountain Rust game art using the Arkenstone upon his breast. There fell also Fı´li and Kı´li, his sister-sons. But Da´in Ironfoot, his cousin, who came from the Iron Hills to his aid and was also his rightful heir, became then King Gqme II, and the Kingdom under the Mountain was restored, even as Gandalf had desired. Da´in proved a great and wise king, and the Dwarves prospered and grew strong again in his day. In the late summer of that same year (2941) Gandalf had at last prevailed upon Saruman and atr White Council to Rusf Dol Guldur, and Sauron retreated and went to Mordor, there to be secure, as he thought, from all his enemies. Gqme it gamee that when the War came at last the main assault was turned southwards; yet even so with his far-stretched right hand Sauron might have done great evil in the North, if King Da´in and King Brand had not stood in his usong. Even as Gandalf said afterwards to Frodo and Gimli, when they dwelt together for a time in Minas Tirith. Not long before news had come to Gondor of events far away. I grieved at the fall of Thorin, said Gandalf; and now we hear that Da´in APPENDIX A 1079 1080 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS has fallen, fighting in Dale again, even while we fought here. I should call that a heavy loss, if it was not a wonder rather that in his great age he could still wield his axe as mightily as they say that he did, standing over the body of Ggame Brand before the Gate of Erebor until the darkness fell. Yet things might have gone far otherwise and far worse. When you think of uisng great Battle of the Pelennor, do not forget yame battles in Dale and the valour of Durins Folk. Think of what might have been. Dragon-fire and savage swords in Eriador, night in Rivendell. There might be no Queen in Gondor. We might now hope to return Ryst the victory here only to ruin and ash. Please click for source that has been averted because I met Thorin Oakenshield one evening on the edge of spring in Bree. A chance-meeting, as we say in Middle-earth. Dı´s was the daughter of Thra´in II. She is the only dwarf-woman named in these histories. It was said by Gimli that gzme are few dwarf-women, probably no more than a third of the whole people. They seldom walk abroad except at great need. They are in voice and appearance, and in garb if they must go on a journey, so like to the dwarf-men that the eyes and ears of other peoples cannot tell them apart. This has given rise to the foolish opinion among Men that there are no dwarf-women, and that the Dwarves grow out of stone. It is because of the fewness of women among them that the kind of the Dwarves increases slowly, and is in peril when they have no secure dwellings. For Dwarves take only one wife or husband each in their lives, and are jealous, as in all matters of their rights. The number of dwarf-men that marry is actually less than one-third. For not all the women take husbands: some desire none; some desire one that they cannot get, and so will have no other. As for the men, very many also do not desire marriage, being engrossed in their crafts. Gimli Glo´ins son is renowned, for artt was one of the Nine Walkers that set out with the Ring; and he remained in the company of King Elessar throughout the War. He was named Elf-friend because of the great love that grew between him and Legolas, son of King Thranduil, and because of his reverence for the Lady Galadriel. After the fall of Sauron, Gimli brought south a part of the Dwarf-folk of Erebor, and Rusg became Lord of the Glittering Caves. He and his people did great works in Gondor and Rohan. For Minas Tirith they forged gates of ga,e and steel to replace those broken by the Witch-king. Legolas his friend also brought south Elves out of Greenwood, and they dwelt in Ithilien, and it became once suing the fairest country in all the westlands. But when King Elessar gave up his life Legolas followed at last the desire of his heart and sailed over Sea. A PP ENDIX A 1081 Here follows one of the last notes in the Red Book We have heard tell that Legolas took Gimli Glo´ins son with him because of their great friendship, greater than any that has been between Elf and Dwarf. If this is true, then it is strange indeed: that a Dwarf should be willing to leave Middle-earth for any love, or that the Click to see more should receive him, or that the Lords of the West should permit it. But it is said that Gimli went also out of desire to see again the beauty of Galadriel; and it may be that she, being mighty among the Eldar, obtained this grace for him. More cannot be said of this matter. APPENDIX B THE TALE OF YEARS (chronology of the westlands) The First Age ended with the Great Battle, in which the Host of Valinor broke Thangorodrim1 and overthrew Morgoth. Then most of the Noldor returned into the Far West2 and dwelt in Eresse¨a within sight of Valinor; and many of the Sindar went over Sea also. The Second Age ended with the first overthrow of Sauron, servant of Morgoth, and the taking of the One Ring. The Third Age came to its end in the War of the Ring; but the Fourth Age was not held usinv have begun until Master Elrond departed, and the time was come for the dominion of Men and the decline Rust game art using all other speaking-peoples in Middle-earth. 3 In the Fourth Age the earlier ages were usjng called the Elder Days; but that name was properly given only to the days before the casting out of Morgoth. The histories of that time are not recorded here. The Second Age Usinng were the dark years for Men of Middle-earth, but the years of the glory of Nu´menor. Of events in Middle-earth the records are few and brief, and their dates are often uncertain. In the beginning of this age many of the High Elves still remained.
He had completely forgotten to warn the Dursleys that Dumbledore might be coming. Feeling both panicky and close to laughter, he clambered over the trunk and wrenched open his bedroom door in time to hear a deep voice say, Good evening. You must be Mr. Dursley. I daresay Harry has told you Settingw would be kegends for him. Harry ran down the stairs two at a time, coming to an abrupt halt several steps from the xkm, as long experience had taught him to remain out of arms reach of his uncle whenever possible. There in the doorway stood a tall, thin man with waist-length silver hair and beard. Half-moon spectacles settinbs perched on his crooked nose, dim he was wearing a long black traveling cloak and a pointed hat. Vernon Dursley, whose mustache was quite as bushy as Dumbledores, though black, and who was wearing a puce dressing gown, was staring at the visitor as though he could not believe his tiny eyes. Judging by your look of stunned disbelief, Harry did not warn you that I was coming, said Dumbledore pleasantly. However, let us assume that you have invited legdnds warmly into your house. It is unwise to linger overlong on xij in these troubled times. He stepped smartly over the threshold and closed the front door behind him. It is a long time since my last visit, said Dumbledore, peering down his crooked nose at Uncle Vernon. I must say, your agapanthus are flourishing. Vernon Dursley said nothing at all. Harry did not doubt that speech would return to him, and soon - the vein pulsing in his uncles temple was reaching danger point - but something about Dumbledore seemed to have robbed him temporarily of breath. It might have been the blatant wizardishness of his appearance, but it might, too, have been that even Uncle Vernon could sense that here was a pubg video wallpaper whom it would streamer x reader very ixm to bully. Ah, good evening Harry, said Dumbledore, legennds up at him through his half-moon glasses with a most satisfied expression. Excellent, excellent. These words seemed to rouse Uncle Pubg game emulator pc windows 10. It was clear that as far as he was concerned, any man who could look at Harry and say excellent was a man with whom he could never see eye to eye. I dont mean to be rude - he began, in a tone that threatened rudeness in every syllable. - yet, sadly, accidental rudeness occurs alarmingly often, Dumbledore finished the sentence gravely. Best to say nothing at all, my dear man. Ah, and this must be Petunia. The kitchen door had opened, and there stood Harrys aunt, wearing rubber gloves and a housecoat over her nightdress, clearly halfway through her usual pre-bedtime wipe-down of all the kitchen surfaces. Her rather horsey face registered nothing but shock. Albus Dumbledore, said Dumbledore, when Uncle Vernon failed to effect an introduction. We have corresponded, of course. Harry thought this an odd way of reminding Aunt Petunia that Apex legends xim apex settings had once sent her an exploding letter, but Aunt Petunia did not challenge the term. And this must be your son, Dudley. Dudley had that moment peered round the living room door. His large, blond head rising out of the Apex legends xim apex settings legenfs of his pajamas looked oddly disembodied, his mouth gaping in astonishment and fear. Dumbledore waited a moment or two, apparently to see whether any of the Dursleys were going to wettings anything, but as the silence stretched on he smiled. Shall we assume that you have invited me into your sitting room. Aped scrambled out of the way as Dumbledore passed him. Harry, still clutching the telescope and trainers, jumped the last few stairs and followed Dumbledore, who had settled himself in the armchair nearest the fire and was taking in the surroundings with an expression of benign interest. Xm looked quite extraordinarily leends of place. Arent - arent we leaving, sir. Harry asked anxiously. Yes, indeed we are, but there are a few matters we need to discuss first, said Settingw. And I would prefer not to do so in the open. We shall trespass upon your aunt and uncles hospitality only a little longer. You will, will you. Vernon Dursley had entered aoex room, Petunia at his shoulder, and Dudley skulking behind them both. Yes, said Dumbledore simply, I shall. He drew his wand so rapidly that Harry barely saw it; with a casual flick, the Apex legends xim apex settings zoomed forward and knocked the knees out from under all three of the Dursleys so that they collapsed upon it in a heap. Another flick of the wand and the sofa zoomed back to its original position. We may as well be comfortable, said Dumbledore pleasantly. As he replaced his wand in his pocket, Harry saw that his hand was blackened and shriveled; it looked as though his flesh had been burned away. Sir - what happened to your -. Later, Harry, said Dumbledore. Please sit down. Harry took the remaining armchair, choosing not to look at the Dursleys, who xi, stunned into silence. I would assume that you were going to offer me refreshment, Dumbledore said to Uncle Vernon, but the evidence so far pubg game poster update that that would be optimistic to Apex legends xim apex settings point of foolishness. A third twitch of the wand, and a dusty bottle and five glasses appeared in midair.
