Eol Galvorn has just left Hobbiton.
Greetings

Hello,
I ended up here while searching for information on werewolves in Arda, and I was captivated by the intelligence of the discussions going on here regarding so many interesting topics. I am a writer/artist of a comic book, from which I draw a lot of inspiration from the works of Tolkien (among other things.) I love fantasy, especially dark fantasy, finding beauty in the darkness above all else. I hope to get to know you all and look forward to debating, discussing, and learning from you all.

Eol

Welcome to all the newcomers! I can assure that if you love Tolkien you won't be dissapointed in this forum.

The last thing I need, the last thing I have time for, the last thing I should be doing is spending my days discussing every minute detail of the incredibly intricate world of Middle Earth.

And yet, here I am!

I blame Tolkien.

Welcome, Selador - that has to be one of the most original and subtle Tolkien nicks I've read! If you're so familiar with his works to have chosen it, you'll be able to enjoy and contribute to many discussions here.

Welcome also to Eol, Nessa, Hugo, and those many newcomers who have joined since I last took the time to greet them. I hope you'll feel at home in our little Barrow - the swords that lie around occasionally are purely decorative, I assure you!
