| Reconstruction Ithilien, early in the Fourth Age The little boy wanted to see the works, so one spring morning they rode north from the new house in Emyn Arnen. Anduin flowed strongly to their left. They spied ships in the harbour. A cleared lane ran along the river’s eastern bank, with young trees planted that one day would give travellers shade. At the Morgulduin, pale tributary, a wooden bridge had been built. Crossing this, they heard the great clamour of stone being lifted from the depths. Later, he watched the boy playing with his blocks. “You do not need to build high,” he said, “but build well.” |
