Morgoth's Return - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

This is not personal, LH. However, this is a forum for the discussion of Tolkien and Tolkien-related material. We try to allow, within reasonable limits, supposition and what-iffing based on things that have been hinted at or left loose, but to borrow from Aiwendil, it's rather like imagining what Sauron might have been able to accomplish if he'd had a Klingon warship at his command, or if they could have just gotten Scotty to beam the Ring into Mount Doom. It has nothing to do with "the world that is" -- by that I mean, it's not based on anything that could reasonably be supposed within the established boundaries of Tolkien's works.

Let me know via PM if you need further clarification.
