des Drúedain et d'Aldarion

[Lucius Arobel]

Bonsoir !

Je suis en train de faire quelques recherches sur les Drúedain et je suis en train de m'intéresser à ceux qui étaient en Númenor. L'info que j'ai trouvé (wikipedia malheureusement je n'ai pas tous les livres) stipule que ceux-ci étaient inquiets des voyages de Tar-Aldarion en Terre du Milieu et je m'interroge... Pourquoi ? Les Drúedain ont l'habitude de ne pas s'occuper des affaires des autres Hommes, qu'elles soient légères ou graves. Et l'info stipule qu'ils sont inquiets de ses voyages et tentent de le dissuader :

Ceux qui s'embarquèrent pour Númenor y prospérèrent pour un temps, mais ne prirent pas part aux guerres menées par l'île, car ils craignaient la mer. Les annales de Númenor font état d'un conte, La Femme du marin, les mentionnant. Inquiets des voyages d'Aldarion, ils lui demandèrent sans succès d'y renoncer. Doués d'une capacité particulière de clairvoyance, ils ne sentaient plus, disaient-ils, le sol de Númenor solide sous leurs pieds, et s'embarquèrent par deux ou trois pour la Terre du Milieu. Il n'en restait plus aucun sur l'île au moment de la « Submersion »

Quand je me rend sur la page dédiée au conte (Celle ci https://www.tolkiendil.com/tolkien/resum...et_erendis ), je ne trouve aucun indice sur le pourquoi de la réaction des Drúedain. (au passage il manque un "S" au mot "d'ailleurs" paragraphe 5 ligne 3) y a t-il une raison pour cet engouement soudain des Drúedain envers le roi de Númenor ?

L'information est issue des CLI, note 7, je n'ai pas le temps de traduire :

In the annals of Númenor it is said that this remnant was permitted to sail over sea with the Atani, and in the peace of the new land throve and increased again, but took no more part in war, for they dreaded the sea. What happened to them later is only recorded in one of the few legends that survived the Downfall, the story of the first sailings of the Núimenóreans back to Middle-earth, known as The Mariner's Wife. In a copy of this written and preserved in Gondor there is a note by the scribe on a passage in which the Drúedain in the household of King Aldarion the Mariner are mentioned: it relates that the Drúedain, who were ever noted for their strange foresight, were disturbed to hear of his voyages, foreboding that evil would come of them, and begged him to go no more. Bu they did not succeed, since neither his father nor his wife could prevail on him to change his courses, and the Drúedain departed in distress. From that time onward the Drúedain of Númenor became restless, and despite their fear of the sea one by one, or in twos and threes, they would beg for passages in the great ships that sailed to the North-western shores of Middle-earth. If any asked "Why would you go, and whither?" they answered: "The Great Isle no longer feels sure under our feet, and we wish to return to the lands whence we came." Thus their numbers dwindled again slowly through the long years, and none were left when Elendil escaped from the Downfall: the last had fled the land when Sauron was brought to it;. [Author's note.] – There is no trace, either in the materials relating to the story of Aldarion and Erendis or elsewhere, of the presence of Drúedain in Númenor apart from the foregoing, save for a detached note which says that "the Edain who at the end of the War of the Jewels sailed over sea to Númenor contained few remnants of the Folk of Haleth, and the very few Drúedain that accompanied them died out long before the Downfall."

Note que les Druedain ne "s'occupent" pas de ces affaires, ils sont tout bonnement en désaccord avec ce qui donnera l'impérialisme nùmenoréen.
