Wargs run like the wind. There is no escaping the fact that every single Warg is remarkably fast. In general Wargs are just amazing physical specimens.

Apologies for taking so long on my tale of the Origin of Wargs, but I have been delayed by some smugdes in the text that have necessitated travel to the janitor's closet at Marquette University, where the reallly hush-hush Tolkien documents are kept. Therein I am sure I will find the missing pieces to the tale. Apparently Aulë was up to no good again, but that's all I'll say.

You have us all salivating with anticipation Diamond.

I was wondering today while driving all over this country of mine what the warg view on motorised transport is. What do they feel about the environmental impact of the automobile upon their natural lands? I can imagine the answer, but if anyone has any authority laying out the warg point of view I would find it most interesting.

The only point of relevance which I can add just now is this. I remember hearing about a year ago of an assault upon the local bus station. The culprits were clearly Wargs. The event had all the trademarks of a Wargian assault. I would not be at all surprised if Wargs despised man-made transport. As well as sharing the Professor's point of view about toxicity, the invention benefits the race of Men in their struggle against Wargs, a struggle which they have a better chance of winning nowadays.

I'm back and in full health. I have met a whole host of wargs, being very careful to be on their good side. They are very interesting, and have taught me some of their scratchy language. Well, I'm off to learn more with my beloved wargs.

I've caught the warg fascination bug... And now am wondering where the best place to find one is... Should I look in the mountains or in fields or in the forest? I tend to associate them with mountains, but am not sure.
Also, back in the early days of Middle-Earth, how were the wargs created? (After all, when going out looking for a warg, one must know as much as possible about them!
