“And thou, Melkor, shalt see that no theme may be played that hath not its uttermost source in me, nor can any alter the music in my despite. For he that attempteth this shall prove but mine instrument in the devising of things more wonderful, which he himself hath not imagined.” ~ The Silmarillion

Topic: Greetings Kind Folk of the Forum

Post Info
KingNorthTX Being lies with Eru - Rank 1 Status: Offline Posts: 1 Date: Dec 24, 2012	Greetings Kind Folk of the Forum Permalink   I come seeking Tolkien enlightenment...mental meanderings, and outright speculations on characters and their actions, outside of what is written... What if's, but then's...and of course the "but did you ever consider"...all that wrought that wasn't. __________________ "...or to take up arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing, end them..."
Laurelin Haldir of Lorien - Rank 6 Status: Offline Posts: 824 Date: Dec 25, 2012	Permalink   Welcome King Texas, I think you'll find what you're looking for here, both lighthearted and more serious discussions on the motives, what ifs, etc. I found that looking for discussions in the search the forums thing lead to a whole lot of information. Plus, even better, there are some really knowledgeable members here. Any favorite characters that you like to speculate about? Again welcome and have fun Laurelin __________________
Anorlas Loremaster Elf of Mirkwood - Rank 4 Status: Offline Posts: 265 Date: Dec 25, 2012	Permalink   Welcome to the forum family, KingNorthTX. I'm sure you will find enlightenment to lighten any Tolkienesque heart. __________________ I'll not bid the stars farewell
FoalOfATook Peoples of Beleriand - Rank 1 Status: Offline Posts: 42 Date: Dec 25, 2012	Permalink   Welcome and while I can honestly say I myself have little taste for speculation. You will be happy to find that I am in the minority here and that you are in the majority. There is much discussion about what ifs, where tos and what thens, all backed up by pertinent facts. Yes this is a fine place, a bit lonely every now and again but nonetheless a wonderful site. Have fun and remember, "not all those who wonder are lost." __________________ "Deep roots are not touched by the frost"

I'm guessing it was the recent film that stirred your interest in all things Middle-earth? __________________ My Master Sauron the Great bids thee Welcome....
