Legolas has just left Hobbiton.

doug, none of the answers here (except elven maiden who doesn't seem to be using any sort of logic) said the robe colours carry any rank aside from white. They obviously don't. Nonetheless, it's all speculation, and in a matter such as this (where Tolkien does not say), apologizing for an opinion that can't be contended with is not necessary. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Sauron the Deciever: As stated above, Alatar and Pallando went into the East of Middle-earth with Saruman, but didn't return when he did. We don't know what became of them. Their names only come up in
Unfinished Tales and The History of Middle-earth XII: The Peoples of Middle-earth. To read the excerpts about them from these two books, check out the article I wrote about them here:
