Chapter 355 Birth
March 21, 2963, the Spring Equinox.
The tranquil and peaceful valley became lively on this day.
The elves' discussions and attention were almost entirely focused on Lord Elrond's last home.
In the palace of the final home, Dui, Elrond, Kelborne, Elrohir, and Elladan stood silently outside the birthing room.
Only Galadriel, the grandmother, and a few midwife elves were in the room with Arwen, who was giving birth.
The room was occasionally filled with muffled groans, causing the men outside to unconsciously show expressions of worry.
Elrond, the father, and Celeborn, the grandfather, appeared calm and composed, but one unconsciously clenched his fist, and the other exuded an uncontrollable aura.
Elohir and Elladan, as the elder brothers, paced anxiously back and forth at the door.
As for Dui, his body was stiff, his face was tense, and he seemed to be petrified. His eyes were fixed on the closed door, as if he wanted to see through it.
Seeing Duy's highly tense state, Elrond felt relieved but also gently reassured him, "Don't be so nervous, Duy. Lady Galadriel is inside, and Alvin is in good health. Everything will be alright!"
Dui nodded absentmindedly, not having heard what he was saying at all; it was just an instinctive response.
Seeing this, Elrond sighed and stopped trying to persuade him.
In any case, Dui will not be able to relax until Alwen has finished giving birth.
As time passed, I don't know how much time had gone by.
As night fell and the star Eyarendil shone brightly in the night sky, a baby's cry finally rang out from the delivery room.
The crying came from the room, echoing in the quiet valley. Although the sound was not loud, it was still clearly audible to the keen ears of the elves.
Immediately, the elves in the valley all showed joy, genuinely happy for the birth of the new life, especially since it was the offspring of their Valley Lord Elrond's daughter, the Elven Princess Twilight Star.
The melodious, enchanting song echoed through the valley, telling of the elves' welcome and blessings for the arrival of new life.
A few minutes later, another baby cried out, just as the first baby cried.
"Congratulations, Duir, Alvin has given birth to twins for you!" Galadriel congratulated her with a smile, holding a baby wrapped in white silk in her arms.
The other female elf beside her was also holding a baby wrapped in blue silk.
"The blue one is the boy, the older brother, and the white one is the younger sister," Galadriel explained.
Dui glanced quickly at the child and immediately asked Galadriel, "Madam, how is Alvin? Is she alright?"
Galadriel's smile deepened as she reassured her, "Alvin is just exhausted and has fallen asleep. You can go check on her if you're worried."
Upon hearing this, Duir quickly rushed into the room.
The other men looked at each other, then smiled with relief.
Kellerborn smiled and said to Elrond, "It seems our Alwen has found a good husband."
"Duir is indeed quite good." Elrond nodded in agreement.
The men then refrained from following them inside to disturb the baby, instead focusing their attention on the two newborns.
Kellerborn carefully received Dui and Alwen's eldest son from the elf.
Elrond, on the other hand, received Duy and Arwen's daughter from Galadriel.
Elohir and Elladan also gathered around, looking at the twin nephew and niece with curiosity and affection.
The Elrond family possesses the gene for twins. Elrond and Elloth, the founder of the Númenórean Empire, were twin brothers. Elrond's sons, Elrohir and Elradan, were also twin brothers.
This time, Alwen gave birth to twins, a first in the history of the elven family.
Inside the room, Dui sat by the bed, tenderly watching over his pale and weak wife, quietly tending to her.
As if sensing something, Alvin gradually awoke from his deep sleep.
When she saw her husband sitting beside her, she immediately revealed a tender affection: "Duir."
Seeing Alvin wake up, Dui was overjoyed. He quickly went over, took her hand, and carefully asked, "Alvin, how are you feeling now? Are you still in a lot of pain? Do you want some water? I'll get you some right away!"
He quickly took out a gold cup, poured in the Ent drink, and then carefully prepared to feed it to her.
Ent Beverage, brewed by the Tree People, is full of vitality, and with the addition of the Golden Cup, its effects are doubled.
After drinking the beverage, Alvin's pale face regained its color at a visible speed, and her voice became stronger.
She watched her husband take care of her with gentle eyes, then glanced around and asked:
'
Duir, where are the children? Have you seen them?
"Uh—" Dui's hand froze. He seemed to have forgotten and answered somewhat guiltily, "They should be with Lord Elrond and the others."
"Should?" Alvin's gentle eyes suddenly became penetrating as she looked at her somewhat guilty husband. A silent sigh escaped her lips. "Duir, those are our children. As their father, you didn't even glance at them?"
"No, no! Alvin, I already glanced at them when I came in! They're all so cute, they look just like you!" Dui quickly retorted.
Alvin looked at him skeptically: "Really? Then do you remember what they looked like? What color were your brother's hair and eyes? And your sister?"
"Uh—her hair seems to be all black?" Du Yi had only glanced at it briefly, his mind preoccupied with his wife's condition, so he couldn't possibly remember the details clearly.
Seeing her husband's uncertain and guilty look, Alvin could only sigh helplessly.
If it weren't for the fact that during her previous pregnancy, Dui would always be by her side, gently resting his head on her belly and speaking lovingly to the children, even going so far as to come up with some kind of prenatal education, tirelessly chanting incantations every day...
Tell ancient history and hum the musical magic of Tom Bombadil.
She was starting to think that Duir didn't like their child anymore.
Just then, Elrond and the others walked in from outside, each carrying two babies.
Elrond carefully examined his daughter's physical condition and, after confirming that there were no hidden dangers, breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she placed the baby between Alvin and Dui, and said with a smile, "Alright, come and see your child. The girl looks a lot like Alvin; she's a very beautiful lady."
Kellerborn then placed the boy she was holding next to her sister.
Looking at the two children before him, Dui felt a connection of blood that made his heart tremble, and endless love surged in his chest like a volcanic eruption.
The two children in the package were not wrinkled like human newborn babies; instead, they were very beautiful.
Her fair and delicate skin was like a freshly peeled egg, so smooth and delicate it seemed to break at a touch. Her black hair was fluffy and plastered to her head, and her big eyes were wide open, radiating intelligence.
They stared intently at Dui and Alwen, as if they knew who they were, and smiled happily.
They looked almost identical, both incredibly beautiful and perfect, as if they were a perfect gift created by the creator god Ilúvatar. The only difference was their eyes: the brother had black eyes like Dui, while the sister had gray eyes.
Their pointed little ears also reveal their racial characteristics.
Clearly, as a hybrid of human wizard and half-elf, the two children inherited more of their mother's bloodline and both have elven forms.
