The atmosphere within the camp was sowhat filled with a faint sadness. Hagrids eyes were bloodshot, clearly indicating that he had cried many tis. As soon as he saw Harry and Sirius, his dark little eyes instantly beca misty, and tears uncontrollably flowed down, falling into his thick beard.
Next to him, Mada Maxi also appeared sowhat sorrowful, holding a large handkerchief in her hand.
For the death of Fridwulfa, it was probably only Grawp who did not feel sad. He couldnt even understand why Hagrid buried his mother in the earth, and built a raised pile of stones on top of it.
Giants were indifferent to death, and like other creatures still living in primitive clans, they thought it was just a way to return to nature. Giants died every day, and new giants were born.
Only a few giants died naturally like Fridwulfa. Most giants and even giantesses died in their pri, on the battlefield.
From this perspective, Fridwulfa should be considered lucky, although her later life was not very good.
Grawp was not used to staying in a cave. He wanted to go out and play, and was constantly throwing tantrums.
Hagrid had to tie him up, using a rope made of magic to tie one end to his body and the other end to so huge rocks.
When Grawp saw Evan, he wanted to co over, roaring and pulling the rope tight
Dont worry, Evan, he doesnt know his strength. So, I had to tie him like this so ssy outside, those Death Eaters and barbaric giants, I was afraid sothing would happen to him, said Hagrid, letting Evan sit beside him, facing the tombstone of Fridwulfa. How did it go there?
Very well, said Evan, looking at the humble pile of stones in front of him. Your mother
Oh, dont feel sorry for my mother. She was too old, and such a day was inevitable for her. Death is a relief for her. Hagrid choked with sobs as he spoke to Evan, just last night, Grawp and I were by her side
After a mont of silence, Sirius asked Mada Maxi about what happened in the giants territory recently.
She told that she had done a lot of cruel and terrible things in her life. She repented for it after she got old, but she was also lucky to be able to see before she left. She had nothing to regret! said Hagrid, wiping his tears. She was very weak, her once strong body was slowly failing, and there were already many signs. Ive been with her. Last night, she reminisced about the past and my father, and as she was speaking, she took her last breath. She left without pain, probably the best ending for her. Otherwise I really wouldnt know what to do. I couldnt take her back to England. There are so many people there who still hate giants and would want to judge her
Evan had seen Fridwulfa before, the old giantess who had reached the end of her life. Although she had done many wrongs, judging or imprisoning her in Azkaban would be too cruel for her now.
Life is unpredictable. Who would have thought that the life of a fierce and famous giantess in the wizarding world would end so blandly?
Next, Hagrid said a lot about his mother.
It was evident that it was a good thing for Hagrid to have spent so ti with Fridwulfa before her death.
He had previously been unable to let go of the fact that his mother had abandoned him and his father, but now he had almost co to terms with it.
Evan duly stated his plan, and Hagrid shook his head, rejecting Evans suggestion.
This kid is not suitable to be a Gurg, and he doesnt need that much power, Evan. said Hagrid. Because hes too short, he has little communication with other giants since he was a child. This place isnt suitable for him. Its not his ho.
In the current atmosphere, it was indeed difficult for Evan to persuade him, and it was unrealistic to expect Hagrid to consider the overall situation.
Looking at Hagrids resolute expression, Evan sighed, realizing that his plan could not be carried out.
He completely gave up. As Sirius said, this kind of thinking itself was very bad and very dangerous.
Such a powerful force should not be misused, and Evan was not at ease to use it on another giant.
The energy stone that accumulated the power of the Cyclops should be kept. It might be used for other purposes in the future, but it would definitely not be used to modify a giant.
So what are you going to do with him? Evan asked. We cant stay here forever.
Ive been teaching him English recently. He learns quickly and can already speak simple words, said Hagrid cheerfully, turning his head to look at Evan, stirring his huge hands. Speaking of which, Im going to take him back with . I cant leave him here alone.
Oh, thats a good idea. The Forbidden Forest is large enough to et his life needs, said Evan.
You agree with ?! Hagrid looked at Evan in surprise. Olympe has been trying to persuade to give up this idea. I know its crazy, but hes my brother, I cant leave him here alone.
Yeah, so we need to take him back, said Evan, who already knew that Hagrid would say so.
Whatever others said, Hagrid would never give up his friends and relatives, nor would he ever give up Grawp. This was Hagrids character.
Thank you, I thought you would object. I really dont know what to say Hagrids eyes were wet again, and the tears that had just stopped ca back.
Hagrid, I can understand that Grawp ans a lot to you. Thats why I hoped to help him beco the Gurg, but its not bad to let him go to Hogwarts, where you can take care of him, said Evan, looking at Sirius and Mada Maxi as they ca along. The question now is, what about the rest of the giants?
We can continue to try to contact them and persuade them.
It doesnt make much sense to do this. What Dumbledore and we can offer is very unattractive to the giants, said Mada Maxi solemnly. The situation is dire. They dont even want to see us now
Yeah, but at least we did what we had to do and delivered Dumbledores ssage to them. Many giants have heard it. They will rember it. Recalling Dumbledores kindness, they may be willing to help us. Hagrid continued.
Evan couldnt see that the giants could have such a high awareness of Voldemorts evil, so that to support them instead.
Now the giants are a ss, fighting every day, and it will not be over in one and a half. In this case, the Death Eaters cant take away all the giants. This is sowhat good news, Sirius followed. Although its a bit regrettable, theres no point staying here. We should leave!
We do need to leave, but not just like that said Evan, ready to leave a deep impression on the giants before leaving.
