I remember reading who they came from I'll try to find it later when I'm not busy, but I do know that the only reason they were there is because Saruman asked for them. Or one of them asked for the... |

Yes, I don't think that they had too much effect on the WotR otherwise Tolkein would have mentioned them more than what he did. But then again he might have put them in for the sole purpose of... |

Tolkein speaks of the two other istari Pallando and Alatar who went to the East and failed their quest like Radagast and Saruman did. My question is how far into the East did they go? Were they the... |

Clearly the footsteps are coming from Gollum. This means he followed them so it's only logical that he squeezed in to the west gate right before it was shut off by the watcher in the water. Perhaps... |

Yes whenever I read The Hobbit I think of it as Bilbo being the author. So it makes up for the childish stance it takes, but I still wish Tolkein had written as he had done the others. |

I would assume they ate the same foods as the rest of the inhabitants of middle-earth, with the exception of lembas. I think Tolkien would have made it known if they ate other types like he did for... |

Entwives
In the Fellowship of the Ring, Sam tells about his cousin seeing a walking elm tree. Do any of you think this could be an entwife? And do you think the Ents found the Entwives after the 3rd age? |

If you go to a website called the Encyclopedia of Arda and look up hobbit names it will usually give you a limited or complex family tree. I don't remember the exact URL to the site though. |

One odd thing is that on the doors of Khazad-Dum the name is Moria (which translates into blackpit) why would the Dwarves write that on the doors of the greatest kingdom in the peak of its glory? |
