This is my first post on this wiki. I've been a long-time fan of the Middle-Earth universe, though I've bounced around other interests, such as Zelda and Murder Drones. I'll be active from time to time :)

Hello everyone, I’m new on this Wiki :) I’m Robbie (which is short for Robin), I’m a teenage girl & I’ve read & watched all of the Hobbit and am currently reading The Two Towers (I’ve already finished all the movies lol). I probably am a LOT less informed on all the characters & lore than y’all are but nonetheless I’m very excited to be here ^^

I've watched the films for like a hundred times, they are really getting more appealing to me!

Opinions?

Ok so you know how the password to the entrance to moria is "friend" in elvish? I've always wondered why it isn't "friend" in dwarvish or something. knowing tolkien, there has to be some kind of symbolism here.

What do you believe happened to them.

Hello! I'd like to start reading The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, but I honestly don't know which one to start with. I know The Hobbit takes place before The Lord of the Rings, but I'm feeling inclined to read the latter first because I know it explores magic/monsters more quickly. So, which one do you think I should start reading?

I ask because I've not seen it (I have no ways to now, as I no longer have Netflix), but I've heard that, to be discreet, it suffers from a similar problem to Rings of Power. Would you guys say that's accurate? If not, is any of the criticism the show got valid from a lore standpoint?

MAN, NOT ELF. I have to specify that or everyone is gunna say Fingolfin. (Understandably)
