Prisoner of Númenor Planning/Discussion Thread

[piosenniel]

SOME EXTRA NOTES FROM SOPHIA:

Story begins in September (Ivanneth in Sindarin), ends late October (Narbeleth in Sindarin)

~*~

Ar-Pharazon landed in Aman 39 days after his departure from Númenor. It would take slightly longer to land in Middle-earth, barring the fierce winds that blew Elendil’s ships to shore. Perhaps it will be a little quicker for them?

NOTE FROM PIO - RELATIVELY SPEAKING IT IS ABOUT 1,000 MILES FROM NUMENOR TO TUNA; ABOUT 1,500 MILES FROM ROMENNA TO THE GULF OF LUNE.

My crew will be on Elendil’s ships (4) parted almost immediately from Isildur’s (3) and Anarion’s (2) ships. We land in Lindon.

On the ships: Palantiri (7), Fruit of Nimloth (on Isildur’s ship), Narsil, Elendilmir (which for the purposes of these stories we will have to call the “Star of Erendis”), Scepter of Annuminas (Rod of the Lords of Andunië).
