beleriand

What follows is a lesser known translation of Ælfwine, a children's book. Bilbo in Beleriand Recorded by Elemil of Eressea Based on the dreams of Bilbo Baggins I have sat by fires and listened to tales more numerous than pearls off the coast of Eldamar, and more various than...

Anyone like "Bilbo in Beleriand"? A light-hearted RP that is a series of Bilbo's heroic dreams that take place in Beleriand. RPG here. I envision exactly how I would like for this to go, and I seek major players who share the same vision. To help further demonstrate what this vision is, I...

1. What would it have taken for the Noldor to realize the futility of their war with Melko? Had it occured, would this realization have changed anything. How? 2. Finrod is deemed the wisest of the Exiles. Why was he not of like mind with Fingolfin regarding Melko? Or did his wisdom show...

I was thinking back earlier to an old debate we had on the forum about the rightness of Finarfin's return to Valinor. During the course of this debate somebody (Maedhros of course!) mentioned that Finarfin's duty lay with his people in Beleriand and that his wisdom could have put to good use...

Sorry if this has been asked before, but where exactly is Beleriand located, comparing to Middle Earth in the 3rd Age. In the index of the Silmarillion, it says that the grassy plains north of Angband, Ard-Galen (spelling?) was also Rohan. So I was just wondering if this area evolved into the...

Chapter XV is nothing like "Of Beren and Luthien" or "Nirnaet Arnoediad". It's plain to see it's not one of those remarkable epic parts of the Silmarillion. When I was asked to write this intro, I had to think for a long time before I recalled what it was all about...and no wonder this...

Do you think Beleriand is a fitting name for this country? It was named after Ossë, who came to the coasts. There is no mention of Ossë journeying inland, rather loving the shallow waters of the seas: Wouldn't it be more proper then if only the coasts were named Beleriand, and 'Beleriand...

Here are some useful maps: Silmarillion Map of Beleriand Re-editted Silmarillion map Realms of Beleriand I must admit that the first time I read the Silmarillion, I read this opening paragraph and skipped the whole chapter. . . Reading further the next time, I discovered that this...

Anyone know where i can find a decent poster-map of Beleriand for my wall??? i've looked everywhere! ~V~

Annuals of Beleriand I made this off of information found in The War of the Jewels, The Silmarillion, and The Complete Guide to Middle-earth. I have made some additions from my own thoughts that I have no evidence for. I am sure there is mistakes and that is why I am posting it, any thoughts...

I wanted to know what has happened to the land of Beleriand thats lies west of the Ered Luin In the map of the Simmarillion and it can't be seen anymore in the map of The Lord Of The Rings. Could anyone answer me? Thank you! :)

I'm curious what other people's opinion are on this... Which of these 3 strongholds of the elves was the strongest and most fair ere its fall?

Is there going to be new editions of some of the History of Middle-Earth books? Like The Lays of Beleriand or the Shaping of Middle Earth? I read that there will be new editions of The Book of Lost Tales available in April of 2003. Is this correct?

Did the Valar destoroy Beleriand with the War of Wrath, or did Eru destory Beleriand when he sunk Numenor?

i recently looked at a map of bereliand and noticed some lands called fingon, turgon, fingolfin, and finrod and so on, so are these names of elvish kingdoms and if so where do men have thier kingdoms, i assuming that gondor and such have not been established but numenore was around at the time...

Ok, I might be getting ahead of myself here as I've only reached up to the Ackallbeth in the Silmarillion, But I'm confused about the Flooding of Beleriand. The Valar leave the Belssed Realm and come to Middle Earth, kick Morgoths butt, and save the day and at the end of it all the whole of...

I am currently reading The Silmarillion for the first time and I am a little confused. How does the land of Beleriand relate to the ME of the lord of the rings era. I konw it was a land mostly inhabited by the Noldor and ruled by Fingon and Fingolfin and all those other elves, but how does it...

This may seem dumb and stupid, but I dont think it will hurt anyone. Why couldnt Rivendell and the enemies of Sauraun look to Beleriand for help. From what I have learned and just remember from the Silmarilian that there is many elves up there, some who are not allowed to go back to the undying...

This question was brought up in another thread, and it seems to me that both sides take it for granted that they're right, which obviously can't be so. I always assumed that it Beleriand was a part of ME, though obviously no longer a part by the time of the War of the Ring. I don't have my...
