On This Day in Middle-earth

October 5th

Gandalf and the Hobbits leave Rivendell.


We’re moving forward in the timeline with today’s event.  Previously the past couple of days we’ve been discussing events as they’ve happened in The Fellowship of the Ring.  Today’s event takes place near the end of The Return of the King.  Since September 21st, the Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, and Gandalf has been staying in Rivendell spending time with the Elves and Bilbo. 

However, as much as they enjoyed spending time in Rivendell, these Hobbits knew they needed to get back home to the Shire.  So, today they continue their journey, at a leisurely pace though. 

Thank you for your time and remember, a light from the shadows shall spring.

– The Wandering One
