The Warg and Warg Rider Appreciation Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

It is certainly an interesting aspect of the good professor's wide-spanning influence. There's no doubting the fact that his works have spanned further than we can ever imagine. And I think we must all stop to remember one thing, were it not for Prof. J.R.R. Tolkien there is a good chance that we would not know of wargs. That we, that most esteemed and devout alumni would be nought but ignorant fools, completely in the dark as regards those wonderful and great beasts who are like deities amongst us: wargs. So, I thank you, professor, and may you rest in the bosom of a warg.

Indeed, without the professor, we would know nothing of the great and illustrious and Warg.

I will finish transcribing my tale soon. I was lucky to see as many Wargs as I did.

It was an experience I will never forget.

Ah, dear Fingolfin, I have debated long and hard with myself about whether to continue this thread. I think that, perhaps, its time has come and it should be given a proper burial.

I often go back and read the thread in its entirity yet I cannot think of anything worthy to add to it. Maybe I could write a lament for the thread?

Beware, Ka , the warg is not a creature in whose affairs you may meddle flippantly. Wargs are noble beasts, with a lineage greater than all in Middle Earth. The story is so rarely told, but Eomer , I pray for a small time before this thread is laid to rest so that I may post a tale which has no rival: The Last King of Wargs . What say you, Horsemaster?

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 11-03-2004, 03:16 PM

Well, it almost goes without saying that this is a tale that should, nay, must be told Samwise.

And where better to tell it, than on The Warg and Warg Rider Appreciation Thread!

I spoke in a passive voice. In other words, i was not imposing the view of be-littleing Wargs, only telling factual events that i am a part of. I hope you observe this reply without feeling a means for threat, or imposing anger. I wish only to explain.

Thank you,

THE Ka
