There's an old man by our door, Whether rich or poor, all answer the door, All come, tall and short, Few can pass through the Medra Gate. The water just flows and flows, The water just flows like this. The Hound stayed in Xiangdi Village.He could make a living by searching there, and he liked the taverns there, and the otter mother was so kind to him. In early autumn, Rosen was hung upside down by a rope tied to his feet, and hung to rot by the window of the New Palace.Six feudal lords are quarreling for his land, and large fleets are chasing and fighting each other in the straits and seas harassed by wizards.

Hope, sailed and helmed by two young sorcerers from Havnor, took Medro safely across the Inner Sea and arrived at Roke. Ember greeted him at the pier.Limp and thin, he came to Yujin and held her hands, but he couldn't raise his head to face her.He said, "My heart is full of death, Eleha." "Come with me Dalin." She said. The two went to Dalin together and waited until winter came.In the following year, they built a hut by the Sirpo River flowing out of Dalin, and lived there in summer. The two worked and taught in the Hongxuan Hall, watching it built stone by stone, each stone soaked in the spell of protection, continuity, and peace; Encountering a reaction, because there are mages from other islands and those who have jumped from the status of students. They are all men and women with strength, knowledge, and pride. They swear to the law and work together to seek the well-being of everyone. different ways to achieve it.

Tired of the enthusiasm and problems of the academy, Eleha grew increasingly drawn to the woods, so she went alone, as far as her heart could take her.Medra was walking there too, but not as far as she, for he was limping. After she died, he lived alone for a while in the cottage by the big forest. One day in autumn, he returned to the academy.Enter from the side gate of the vegetable garden, and the side path leads through the fields to Roke Knoll.The characteristic of Roke Hongxuan Pavilion is that there is no main entrance or grand entrance at all. You can enter from the place called the back door. Although this door is made of animal horns, with dragon teeth as the frame and chiba trees carved on the door, But if you come from a dark path beyond the wall, the door has a plain appearance; or you can enter by the vegetable garden door, which is plain oak and has an iron bar.But no front door.

Medra walked through the hall and stone corridor, and came to the deepest part of the house, the atrium of fountains covered with marble.The tree that Eleha had planted now stood tall, and the berries on its branches were gradually turning red. Ruo Ke's masters heard that he was there and gathered together, regardless of gender, they are all masters of various arts.Mijo had been a master searcher before going to Dalin, and now a young woman taught the art as she had taught him. "I've been thinking," Mizo said, "you have eight. But nine is a better number. If you want, take me as your master again."

"What will you do, Master Tern?" asked the Summoner, the gray-haired mage of Irian. "I'm here to guard the gate," said Medra. "I'm lame, so I won't stay away from that gate; I'm old enough to know what to say to anyone who comes: I'm a searcher, and I can tell if someone belongs here." "That will save us a lot of trouble and some danger," said the young Master Searching. "What will you do?" the Summoner asked. "I will ask their real names." Mi Zhuo said, smiling, "If they are willing to tell me, they can come in, and when they think they have finished their studies, they can go out again. As long as they can tell me my real name."

So it is.All his life, Mizhuo guarded the double doors of Roke Hongxuan Hall.Even though the centuries have passed, people have changed, and the vegetable garden gate facing the round hill has long been called the gate of Mijo.The ninth Master Roke is also still the Master Gatekeeper. In Lane Bottom and the villages at the foot of Havnoorn, the women who weave and weave sing a riddle song, the last line of which may have something to do with being Medra, Otter, and Tern. three things are impossible Soria island floating on the sea Beaulieu swimming in the sea Seabirds fly into the grave
