It has been 18 years since Turbine despatched us off on this journey. And whereas the corporate fell by the wayside, having been bitten off, chewed up, then spat out by Warner Brothers, the by no means ending story of Center-earth continues on.
Wait, weren’t we alleged to have a giant end, to have an finish in some unspecified time in the future?

So on we go into the sport’s eighteenth anniversary celebration, as a result of the sport survives as long as the celebration retains going!

With Mordor having fallen, we’ll stay in an ongoing denouement as long as the cash lasts.

Message from Waldo
The time stamp on letters appears to be a bit off. Or perhaps that’s the expiration date. It’s in all probability the latter. The ship time is seen if you open the message, however it’s typical LOTRO UI to go away me questioning what it meant. Additionally my message from Elrond is gone.
Anyway, it has been just a few years since I ran by any of the festivals and have fairly strictly averted occasions on this run by the sport. They could, in reality, make it easier to advance, they’ll additionally distract from the objective at hand… which on this case entails cleansing up individuals’s crap in Dunland. Dungland extra prefer it. However I’ll get to that in a bit.
First I’ll replicate a bit alone time in Center-earth during the last dozen and a half years.
