	Third Age Isle's (Preview) How many islands were there around northwestern middle-earth in the Third Age? I have looked in various HOME books and see islands called 'Himling' and 'Tol Fuin' and 'Tol Morwen' and stuff but don't see them mentioned in LOTR or the Hobbit or anything.

	Places and ages of Midle-earth. (Preview) I heard someone post that we are now in the seventh age of Tolkiens world. If so when did the other ages start and end. Also, Were in middle-earth is everything? I know the Shire was like England. and Hobiten Londin. That Valinor was north and south America. But what was antartica? And, was Africa supo...

	What about Mithrellas ? (Preview) Ok, so firstly to make sure you all see where I'm coming from with this thread title, I'm going to make a short summary about the story of Mithrellas. She was a Silvan Elf, who accompanied Nimrodel (an Elf of Lorien, loved by Amroth) during her journey to the southern havens. Now it is said that durin...	The Might	14	4580		Dec 6, 2006 by Galin
	The One Ring (Preview) Maybe I am just forgetting something very basic, but I have to ask. If the Elves put on their rings after the defeat of Sauron at the Last Alliance, why weren't Gollum, Bilbo, or Frodo aware of the other ringbearers when they donned the One Ring? Shouldnt they have been able to determine that Galadr...	Celethil	7	992		Nov 25, 2006 by mouth of sauron
	Poor Smeagol (Preview) Once found, The One starts working on Smeagol until will finally consume him. Gollum lies somewhere on the realm of humanity, even tough his appearance shows everything, deep in his heart there is a struggle. And still, I never could understand why this odd changing!!Do you consider him...	Rumil	8	1464		Nov 10, 2006 by mouth of sauron
	Hmmm...Interesting (Preview) I found a very interesting map in my opinion. THE MAP As you can see this is a map of Europe (which in Tolkien's view was Middle-earth a long time ago) The map probably shows Europe quite some time ago, maybe 10000 ye...	The Might	29	1267		Oct 8, 2006 by The Might
	Strange Relationships (Preview) At first I was intrigued by the relationship between Legolas, and Gimli and the friendship that sprung between them. But I'd have to say that the love Gimli hs for Galadriel is probably the most touching aspects of this sort in the book. The way Gimli asks for a strand of her hair was for me, very touching...

	The third age (Preview) I know quite a bit about the first two ages but not so much about the third age. I was wondering if anybody would be good enough to give me a brief outline of what happens in it, particularly the beginning half, with Angmar and Arnor and all that.

	If faramir had survived... (no im not going mad) (Preview) When faramir tried to regain control of Osgiliath and was wounded by an arrow, he was saved by the Dol Amroth, who took him back to Minas Tirith. Yada Yada Yada i'm sure you all know what happens next.... But my question is as Denethor presumed that Faramir was dead, so he set arrangements for he and h...

	What was Saruman's Ring? (Preview) I ask this because Gandalf tells the Council of Elrond that at his last visit to Saruman he saw him “wear a ring on his finger. ...‘I am Saruman the Wise, Saruman Ring maker.’” [LotR p.275-276] But this is never followed up, and we don’t see any evidence that Saruman had any en...

	Mouth of Sauron (Preview) ...What race was he? An elf? As a human Sauron would've had to change his Mouth every 60 years or so, since even the Valar cant tke away the Gift of Eru, that is mortality for men...	Olorin of Nienna	3	887		Aug 17, 2006 by Olorin of Nienna
