Many Mithril Pages @ Faerylands

Perhaps he's had to take shelter somewhere because of the pandemic?

Again no news from Twrich nor Gavin since very long ago.

We do not even know if it has left from Twrich's place or if he is in London with Gavin.

Last time Gavin connected into the forum was on May 2020 and it would be an enormous pity to loose Elrond's track without digitalising his travel memories since the very beginning....

Milo should already be preparing his home to host Elrond by now... (you know, Elrond has some very expensive elven tastes...) xD

that's amazing how this travelling Elrond is surviving all those adventures  in the mail through years... that's certainly a more dangerous one than the one lived by Bilbo or Frodo ...
If we take into consideration we are in the 5th age of the world (nearly the 6th?) and he's been around since the end of the First age !

that's great news

But it will be fine to see some of the photos from his adventures....

Hmm ... I'm glad to learn that Elrond's travels are about to be continued once again.
There's one thing I'm really interested in by now: what is the present size of Elrond's travelling-parcel now??? I just recall that it had to be (slightly) extended one or two times.
So I would be very thankful if some of those hosts now being involved in the present steps of Elrond's travels would provide a pic of the parcel (outside !)... not of the content,please.

The "Travelling Elrond", our dear Mistress Wendy once started, seems not to have lost its magic.

By now I can imagine that it might take some days to unpack the parcel carefully. Then some more days to check all of the content. Alas. - Then you have to read quite a lot of interesting comments in small books. Some more days might be necessary to look at pictures included. - That's hard work all in all, but it's not all there is about it.  ..... Whoops ... I'm glad that I was once through with all that what I hosted and that was ages ago ... though I really still enjoy what I remember still.

That "Travelling Elrond - figure is one of my favourite "Mithrils" as he definitely did never tend to haste anything. I do confirm this as an Ent. RHhuûoôOOmmmmm ... mmm

Great news!  I hope I can host him along this year (or next) after his visit to Maese Milo.

By the way... Any can give some feedback about when his travel started? I saw that the messages in this thread begin in 2008, but It seems that Elrond began his journey a bit early!

Ah well, yes, I can confirm this, Master Gildor. Good old "Mithrandir" (Marc Campbell) with his Many Mithril Pages in 2005.
Then later the shocking disappearance of MMP on the net.
In January 2008 we got in contact, Master Gildor (if you do rmember), about re-opening of a new MMP. Fortunately you had the skills and possibilities to try to do so. In those days Wendy and I also tried to help a little bit with what was left. Well, nothing was saved well enough, so nearly everything of the old MMP got unfortunately and definitely lost.
To find out about the old pictures of the "Traveling Elrond" Wendy tried to help. But neither Ken nor Dave (of the old MMP - Shadowspawn and Sherie) saved old pics, as Wendy told me.

So, that January in 2008 mmp.faerylands was decided to be  born by our skilled Elf Gildor.

the old site is still available (some pages) on the wayback machine (webarchives.com)  under the old name : mmp.perilousrealm.com (maybe I shoulc redirect the link in the link section to point directly there)

As a side note, originally it meant "Marc Mithril Pages" later Mithrandir Mithril Pages and in finally "Many Mithril Pages"

Hm ... Master Gildor is completely right about the changes of the old names of MMP. I can confirm that.

Well, Master Barliman, in those days I tried hard, also with the help of Mistress Wendy, to contact Marc again. All that unfortunately was in vain. Sorry, Master Barliman, that I cannot be of any help concerning that matter.

well I don't know how we could reach Marc Campbell anymore (that's his name right?) His old email is linked to perilousrealm which does not exist anymore either

That's good to know, Gavin. Keep on, please.

Elrond was sent last week, and I'm sure Gavin will let us know of his arrival. And yes, I miss Marc and many others who have faded away over the years. But many of us still are here after over 15 years, and after three decades of collecting Mithrils.

I am waiting Elrond for years with patience. We have so many castles and ruins to visit (and the infamous Orval abbey where monks brew their famous beer)
