I'm just wondering...... (Tolkien religion) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I read somewhere that Tolkien hated it when people became too obsessed with Middle Earth, like having lotr weddings and such. So he'd probably send balrogs down from the halls of mandos or something on any island we'd start. But any tolkienites living there would just take it as a religious sign and triumphantly keep on going so it wouldn't work. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]
But seriously, lotr definitely has enough history and details to actually start something from all that. But it would be kind of weird. How would it work?
