quest

This story originated as an RP between myself and @Tyelkormo the Fair. We would love to hear your thoughts. https://thetolkien.forum/threads/quest-for-your-heart.32855/ Prequel one-shot about Edrahil: The Sculpture and the Willow Chapter List: Prologue: Once Upon A Time, Far Away Chapter 1...

Link to Discussion Thread and Chapter List Prologue: Once Upon A Time, Far Away Éowyn was starting to get mightily annoyed. The young (he looked young, even if he was not) elf was good looking, she would give him that, but even that could not be enough reasons as to why Éowyn should...

Who's more enduring as a ring bearer? Would Bilbo have made it to the Mount Doom and would he have thrown the ring? Could he have endured the entire journey? How do you see each of them's "wearing style" and purpose of wearing the ring? :D Who's more attached to the ring? Who bears the shadow...

I used to have some solo gamebooks (similar to Lone Wolf, choose-your-own-adventure with some RPG additions) called Middle-Earth Quest and Tolkien Quest. I never got around to trying them out, has anyone read/played these gamebooks? I'm interested in picking some up to keep in my library, but I...

I made a Lord of the Rings themed jewelry box as part of a multi-stage geocache hunt for my girlfriend. It turns the door lights on when it's dark outside. It turns the mirror lights on when you open the doors. Eventually I will have ring rolls above the drawers, mesh for hanging earrings in...

I know Saruman messed up a lot of things by delaying Gandalf and the mess he made in Rohan, but Saruman's interference at the Falls of Rauros seems like it saved the quest from disaster. Here is why: Had not the Isengard orcs, I think they were called Urak hai, overpowered the Mordor orcs...

I feel that, now I am 50, it is time to go on a quest of some sort, preferably one that will save the world from unspeakable evil and bearing in mind that I also want to celebrate my eleventy first. Suggestions below please...

Something struck me when I first read Carpenter's biography some fifteen ago, a clear parallel between Tolkien himself and the hero of his most hopeful First Age tale, Release from Bondage. Of course we all know of the words graven into the tombstone of JRRT and Edith, so perhaps this parallel...

Im not sure if this is in the books as i havent yet got that far, and im am not good enough to remember if it is. But anyway, where Galadriel says in the film: "Frodo begins to see it now, the quest, will claim his life" This can mean one of two things the way I see it, either: 1) He...

here's a new thread for you Hobbit scholars out there. Gandal arrives in Hobbiton one sunny day in May, chats to BIlbo, who invites him to tea. Gandalf arrives, but so do 13 dwarves, who have been led to believe - by Gandalf no less - that they are going to a prearranged meeting with a...

The Silmarillion, Chapter 19: Of Beren and Luthien Another topic from the Debate Tournament. Enjoy:)

From The Lord of the Rings: The Council of Elrond Was Frodo succesful in his Quest to destroy the Ring? Another Debate-Tournament-topic. Enjoy:)

From The Silmarillion: Of Beren and Lúthien Was it ok for Beren and Lúthien to involve other people in their quest for a seemingly selfish reason? Another topic from the Debate Tournament.

Hi guys. I'm an Aussie travelling at the moment and could not get the answer to one of the questions in the last quest posted. There was a classified add in the "Australian" newspaper on Nov 26th. Is there anyone willing to give me the answer?? !!!PLEASE!!! Thanks

I think I am receiving the Sil for X-mas this year. I have heard that it is extremely detailed and complicated. Are there any suggesstions out there as to how to go about starting this book? Should I just "gung-ho" it and read it from the beginning? Or should I read the LOTR again to refresh...

The One Ring Hello All! This is my first (hopefully of many) post on this site so please forgive me if my questions and comments have been overdone. I have recently be reinvigorated with the entire JRRT world and have read the Hobbit, LotR, Silm, and most of the Unfinished Tales in the last...
