Dorwinion and The Sea of Rhûn (which may very well be host to a Wood-Elf kingdom).
Nah. It'll be a boxed set, not combined with anything else, called "In the Deep Dark Places of the Earth".skywalker wrote:That could be paired with Lothlorien too given they are geographically close. Not sure what the overarching theme would be.zedturtle wrote:Khazad-dûm
And a clan of Eastern Dwarves could inhabit the mountains bordering the Sea of Rhûn.Er-Murazor wrote:Dorwinion and The Sea of Rhûn (which may very well be host to a Wood-Elf kingdom).
Is that a reference to "kinfolk in the South"? I was just pondering that recently. It could easily mean Lorien (south west), where all the elves except Celeborn and Galadriel are wood-elves, but the phrase could be used to justify an entirely new elven community.Er-Murazor wrote:Dorwinion and The Sea of Rhûn (which may very well be host to a Wood-Elf kingdom).
It would be logical to conclude that Tolkien was referring to Lórien in that passage from The Hobbit. However, he complicated matters in The Lord of the Rings when we discover that there has been little contact between Lothlórien and the Woodland Realm. And since the Sea of Rhûn is to the East not the South, the comment becomes even more mysterious and perplexing.Glorelendil wrote:Is that a reference to "kinfolk in the South"?
