Week In LOTRO
Teriadwyn
- Teriadwyn did another round of Chores for Bears (™), was not allowed to set an eagle on fire despite how annoying he was being, and killed SO MANY TROLLS. Also discovered Lyndelby.
- Elven minstrel Lossenfaen ran around with Morchandir to help him level up a bit.
- Saryssa made it to the Osgiliath culverts!
Aerindys
- Decided I didn’t have enough hobbits in my life so I aria’d a hobbit minstrel to 120. Took her festival-ing and got a few new dances.
Gwaerendes
- Festival of the White Lady
- A Meeting with a very large Dragon, and what happened after
- Questing update – fishslapping functionaries
Sanswinda
- Went warging and timed the respawns of the quest givers in Grothum on accident.
- Almost finished Mordor Besieged with Cyndars and reached Lyndelby with Teri and Pineleaf!
- Did some concert-going and festivaling.
Pineleaf
- My capped warden made it to a nice looking village in the new area
- My Stout-Axe finished up the Stout-Axe story line in Moria. For a moment, I thought that someone may have recognized me as a Stout-Axe but later realized that she spoke that way to everyone.
- On Friday Night Fights, we have a player in the upper-level group who has never grouped before. We introduced him to fellowship quests by running Defence of the Prancing Pony, Breaching the Necromancer’s Gate, and Bells of Dale.

Hoping you will mention the very sad news that Sir Ian Holm passed away, most listeners will be aware of him as Bilbo in Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings and Hobbit films.
However, could you also mention that he also appeared as Frodo in the 1981 BBC Radio Adaption of The Lord of the Rings, and gave a remarkable performance. He will always be Frodo for me.
