Many Mithril Pages @ Faerylands

Huoommm ... sorry, no time for a drink ... I just remembered that I promised to put up some new pictures in that Mathom House ... huoommm ... what is a "short drink", Master Estel? ... I guess I better stay away from that ... rhuoommmmmmmm

Yes, I know what you mean about the latest MS voting. The Gold Fellowship has somewhat of an overabundance of trolls already, compared to the very small part trolls play in Tolkien's legendarium. Still, if that's what the majority of people want, then I guess that's what they want. Next month I might suggest a troll picking his nose, or maybe chewing his toenails. In the meantime I think I'll join you in another drink, Master Estel.

Huoommm ... now trying to be serious again .... hom ... Master Barliman, may I also have one of them shorts together with a drink, please ... rhuoomm ... nay, I won't mind carrying a tie ... or what do you mean saying "tie them tree up, please?" ... rhuomm ... I always knew that language is limited .... hooommm ... but this hassle around my throat is what? ... hmm ... arrghhhh ... eehh ... right, once you let me loose again I'll promise to give some coiny things for that beermat-collection you call yours ... uphhh ... yes, promise to clean them doormates more regularly ... huom ... whatever door mates are ... promised ... [Ent sighs again] ...
All I wanted was to be serious again and having a free drink .... rhuommm ... but that's the way it goes once you enter these pony-prancing-premises ... alas ... huom ...

The only thing dry in here is the humour, Master Caster (or 'humor', as the, ahem, colonials spell it). As for the wargskin doormats, Master Tree, I think we'll give them a rest for a while and just get Nob to lay down on the threshold; then you can wipe your feet on him - he's not good for much else. (Alternatively we could try using Bob's cat - at least that will clean itself afterwards).

Very droll, Master Elf!

Sounds like.........

You could even be the piano, Master Tree!

Not sure about the Huron / Mohican business, Master Dave. Culturally, you may be right, but didn't US troops with their hair cut in that fashion in WW2 refer to it as a 'Mohican'? Perhaps one of our colonial visitors can put us right on that score.

Huoommm ... better not discuss any militray-history-matters with the barkeep, Master DDaines, better not, as he seems to know a bit about them matters ... rhuoommm .... at least that's what I know of .... hoommmm

I know, I'd best tread carefully, lol. But I has seen the film and it is in colour so it must be true

"Mohawks" sported by Native American tribes of the Great Lakes region, particularly the 'Mohawk' tribe when going to war.  Others noted for this fine fashion: 16th century Cossacks, Scythians, WWII U.S. paratroopers, Irish bog people (at least one), and various sub-genre of punks rockers.  What is cool about the versions in the pending HD figures is the unity with the 1/2 orc figures!

Believe me, if I had more hair I'd be sporting a Blue one;)  But the link to the 1/2 Orcs is what is crucial for unifying CT's Mithril/ME visions.  Without getting into the larger (and perhaps endless) debate about half orcs in general, I find it to be a nice touch that supports my own views on the matter.  The other 'half' must be Dunlendings and the hair-do is a cultural artifact.  Good work CT!

Just returning from my travel to Dol Amroth - what a nice place !
First I would like to thank Master Holger, Master Thingol, Master Milo and Master Erchamion for their kind wishes.

Very friendly these gentlemen!

Mister Barkeeper, a round of your best ale for everybody here around. You need coiny things?! You get coiny things!
In the meantime I will inform myself of everything new what is around.
