Why pass on the west side? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

***Sharkû*** · 08-28-2002, 03:18 PM

Call me disillusioned, but if you hit the area of the Barrow-Downs coming from the west side like you do from the Old Forest, and you do not want to enter the Downs, isn't it plainly logical to pass them by on the side you are on? What else could they have done? And I strongly and seriously doubt that some ten miles (or ten yards in the case of a single barrow) nearer to or farther from Valinor (which was removed from the circles of the world anyway, making directions relative) makes any difference. Mainly because there is nothing which even remotely hints on that anywhere.
