The movie The Fellowship of The Ring started playing and everyone was focused on the film. Anton was glad that the quality of the video and audio was up to par so he decided to stop watching and entered his Diablo II system.
Anton continued on his enchantnt project since he wanted his family and friends to have an enchanted item that would increase their defenses against attacks. He spent the ti when everyone was watching the film doing so experintation and several trial and error just outside the Rogue Sanctuary in Act I in the normal difficulty where he set up a table for experintation.
He was not worried about any of the monsters that spawned bothering him since one clay golem was enough to guard him. Anton would have wanted to set up inside the safe zone but he didn’t want to bother the non-player characters if so of his experintation went awry.
Anton rembered that at first, he wasn’t able to cast spells inside the safe zones but now for so reason, he was able to and there was no announcent from his Diablo II system. That ant that his system could make so changes without notifying him. He was guessing that his system would only do so for major changes but for minor changes that would not affect him so much, the system would just implent it.
He still had so many questions about his system but Anton knew that he was still powerless to pursue that knowledge. Besides, his system was nothing but beneficial and if he couldn’t trust it, what could he trust in this world? He knew that his very existence was tied up to his system and he was truly grateful for it.
Anton had to exit his system when he heard a loud noise and it was the roar and clapping of the audience signifying that the movie had ended. He could hear everyone’s clamor about wanting to watch the second part of the film trilogy and Anders had to go to the front of the theater to make an announcent which was just him reiterating that The Fellowship of the Ring would run for two weeks and that the Two Towers which was the second part of the trilogy would be shown after that.
After that, Anton and his family had to spend several minutes talking with the ship’s higher-ups before they could go and have lunch.
“That was the most wonderful epic story I have ever seen in my life!” Captain Robertson kept saying to Anders while shaking Anton’s father’s hands. The officers and the mages that were with the captain all looked like they fully agreed with him. The talk would have gone much longer but because the employees that their family hired kept shouting that everyone should start leaving already since the next showing would be up in a few minutes, they exited the theater.
Thankfully, the captain and his cohorts left soon after and Anton’s friends led him and his family to a restaurant where they could eat lunch. Anton saw that his father and Nemina were comfortable leaving the new employees in the theater to handle the situating by themselves but he had to ask.
“We’ve trained them well and we’ll only be gone during our lunchti,” Anders told Anton.
Due to his friends' prodigious influence in the Alia, they were able to get a table large enough for everyone even though the restaurant was supposed to be very exclusive. While they were waiting for their lunch to be served, everyone was talking about the film but mostly it was Antonia, Lucia, Walter, and Phillip.
“You’re correct Anton. We shouldn’t have asked for the story from the others. Their storytelling was so garbled that while watching the film, it confused
sotis and it would have been better if I’d seen it without knowing anything about it,” Antonia said and Anna and the other girls complained.
“That’s why I’ve been telling everyone that spoilers are a major no-no. I rember that when I was watching the world where the movies ca from, leaking spoilers is a cri so Father, I suggest that you be much stricter when it cos to everyone sharing spoilers,” Anton exaggeratedly said while glaring at everyone.
“Don’t worry Anton, I’ll talk to everyone about revealing the
contents of the film before the showing and I’ll make sure to be strict.”
Everyone looked apprehensive when Anders announced that but soon their food arrived and they began eating. They kept talking though while they ate.
“I like how the Hobbits live. Their lives are so peaceful and they seed to be content to live their lives joyously and be content to live amongst themselves.”
Surprisingly, it was Phillip who said that since it appeared to Anton that Phillip was an adventurous man but then again, he knew that once in a while, a person needed to calm down and de-stress and the lives of the Hobbits did look stress-free.
“I suddenly wondered if Rendindura would be the sa as the place that Sauron conquered,” Lucia suddenly said and everyone contemplated what she said.
They knew that there was a chance that their ho continent would experience a very dark era because of the Undead Coalition and the scene of the hobbit villages being conquered by Sauron’s forces when Galadriel showed Frodo what could happen looked eerily like a prediction for their continent as well.
“I wonder if there will be heroes who will stand up against the undead,” Anna said softly, but everyone heard her.
“We don’t have to lose hope. Maybe when we are settled sowhere, we will hear the news that a group of mighty heroes vanquished the undead, and then great stories will be told about their deeds. And maybe even soday, once there is magic that can make movies, there will be movies about them,” Anton appeased his sister.
“Do you think there will be magic soday that will allow us to create movies? I want to be in a film like Rose in Titanic or Elizabeth Bennet in Pride and Prejudice!” Anna said loudly suddenly very excited and based on the other girls’ expressions, they had this dream of becoming movie stars and amusingly, even Antonia and Lucia had the sa expressions.
“You’re a mage. If magic appears that will allow one to create a movie, they will probably choose veteran actors and actresses, aning those people who dedicated their lives to the craft like the ones who acted in plays,” Anton did not want to burst their bubble but they had to at least put a limit to their imagination less they beca severely disappointed.
Anton knew that the magic to create films was very possible since there were already magic items that allowed them to record a scene and if an enterprising mage and businessman got the idea, the movie revolution in this world would start.
“We can actually start creating a movie of our own. We do have a recording magic item and if we truly want to spend ti creating our own private movies we can do so,” Frederick absently said while eating.
That statent caught everyone off guard except Anton who had thought of this possibility a long ti ago. He was even surprised that it took everyone a long ti to imagine creating movies of their own but it was understandable. They already had a supply of great movies with great stories and aweso special effects, why would they think of creating movies that would likely end up sub-par compared to what Anton could produce?
