Welcome to the most epic reality TV show of the First Age!

A few ground rules:

1. To represent the long passage of time and generations in the Silmarillion, tribes will come and go at certain points, and deaths will sometimes occur as well as evictions.

2. I will be describing the challenges and their results. Vote with an eye to what needs to be achieved. A failed challenge can have dire and radical consequences...

3. The Silmarillion is a substantial work. In keeping with this, all votes without some reasoning are discounted.

Right. It's Day One in Valinor, and Feanor has just created the Silmarilli...

The first challenge-HORTICULTURE. Look after the island's source of light, the Two Trees. Make sure they're tended and watered properly and that no vandals can hurt them.

EDIT: Voting closes at 9 GMT, which is I think 3:00 or 4:00 EST...anyone who keeps a running tally gets a gold star from me!
