It was in the Third Age for sure. Soon before the start of the War of the Ring. I woke up in some prison cell with amnesia. Still do not remember anything from my earlier life. Prolly I was beaten hard by Blackwolds and this is why I remember nothing. And I think that I would die in that cell if not king Ellesar (then no one knew he will be a king), who had freed me. Yes men, thats not a lie. You can go to Minas Tirith and ask him. I was rescued by king Elessar personally. And later, oh man, so much fighting…
Original SoA Beta. I hated it. Bought it anyway, played the 3day headstart and everything, hated it still. I was young and stupid I guess. It wasn’t ’till 5-6 months before F2P that I decided to give it another chance and I’m loving it ever since.

I’ve been an avid fan ever since my dad read the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings to me as bedtime stories when I was a wee lass, so I was excited to be able to play in world I’d loved for years. Turbine did not disappoint, and LOTRO remains the game I always come back to.
Here is an amazing shot of the Argonath by our fan, Misaborn (a.k.a. Bert). I’m sorry about the size; this was as large as the picture would go. Thank you
