"300 lives of men I have walked this earth and now I have no time"~~~ Gandalf as he rides from Edoras. I'd say Gandalf was around 3000 years, not 2000. And I have a book (had a book) that said he came to M.E. 3000 years before the War of the Ring. The Balrog, Durin's Bane, was given the name Durin's Bane after waking up after almost 2 full ages. He killed the dwarf king and his son I believe. The dwarves of Moria named it Durin's Bane and packed up there bags. Mean old cranky Balrog!
