'''Mary Fairburn''' (born 13 [[June]] [[1933]]) is an English artist and musician, best known for her illustrations for [[The Lord of the Rings]], which in [[1968]] were seen and admired by [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]].
Her illustrations, unknown until [[2012]], were published as a body by HarperCollins in the Official Tolkien Calendar [[2015]]. Fairburn has been living in Australia since [[1976]].
==History==
===Childhood===
Fairburn was born in London. She was educated at St. Swinthun's School for girls, Winchester, the Winchester School of Art and the Institute of Education, University of London.
===Active life===
In the mid-1950s, she taught art at St. Bonaventure's boys' school Forest Gate, east of London, and in [[1958]] took a job at Masjid-i-Sulieman, Iran, teaching art and music to the children of the employees of an American oil company. In [[1957]] and again in the early 1960's, she painted a number of (now destroyed) murals on religious subjects at St. Peter's primary school in Winchester. She travelled in Europe and Africa during [[1962]] to [[1965]]. She returned to Winchester, and held a number of exhibitions.
===Encounter with [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]]===
In [[1967]] she left England, intending to drive across Europe and Asia to Australia, but had to turn back at India due to bureaucratic difficulties. She wintered in Teheran, where a friend was working for the British Council, and read his copy of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. On her return to England, she executed a suite of pictures based on the novel, mainly in coloured ink, and in [[May]] [[1968]] sent them to [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]]. He wrote back in strongly approving terms, telling Fairburn her pictures were "splendid. They are better pictures in themselves and also show far more attention to the text than any that have yet been submitted to me" (letter of 24 [[May]] [[1968]]). In a subsequent letter, he wrote, "After seeing your specimens I am beginning to change my mind [that is, about not having The Lord of the Rings illustrated], and I think that an illustrated edition might be a good thing." However, soon after this, Tolkien broke his leg in a fall, and was hospitalised; Fairburn was in difficult financial circumstances and needed to urgently pursue more immediately rewarding work, and the [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]] family home in Oxford was packed up for a move to the English south coast. As a result of these disruptions the negotiations between the writer and artist went no further.
Unable to find secure housing or employment, Mary Fairburn left England in autumn [[1974]], and travelled through Asia, eventually settling in Melbourne, Australia, where she taught a range of courses for the Council for Adult Education, and met her husband, Patrick Currie Flegg. They retired to Castlemaine, Victoria, in [[1993]]. She became involved there with a number of musical ensembles, notably Odds and Sods.
Her art work has been exhibited in Winchester, Amantea (Italy), Melbourne and Castlemaine.
Her young adult fantasy novel, Selangath: A Legend of the Sea, with her own illustrations, was self-published in [[2019]].

}}'''Eldarion''' ([[Quenya|Q]], pron. {{IPA|[elˈdari.on]}}) was the son of [[Arwen]] and [[Aragorn II|Elessar]].

==History==
Eldarion became the second King of the [[Reunited Kingdom]] after the death of his father [[Aragorn II|Elessar]] in {{FoA|120}}.<ref name="Tale"/> At the time of his ascending to the throne, Eldarion was "full ripe and ready for kingship". It is known that Eldarion was given the tokens of kingship ([[Andúril]], etc.) by his father, who died soon after the crowning of his son.<ref name="Tale"/> He was also recorded to have several sisters.<ref name="Tale"/>

During Eldarion's reign, [[Findegil]] served as the royal scribe (or King's Writer). In {{FoA|172}}, Findegil wrote a copy of the [[Thain's Book]] for the [[Thain]] of the [[Shire]], probably at the request of [[Peregrin Took]]'s great-grandson. This copy was the only one to include [[Bilbo Baggins|Bilbo]]'s complete [[Translations from the Elvish]], which Bilbo had composed while at [[Rivendell]] during his 'retirement' there.<ref>{{FR|Records}}</ref>

One hundred years into his reign, he encountered a renewal of [[Morgoth]]-worship known as the "[[Dark Tree]]".<ref>{{PM|Shadow}}</ref>

In a 1972 letter concerning ''[[The New Shadow]]'', Tolkien mentioned that Eldarion's reign would have lasted for about 100 years after the death of Aragorn.<ref name="L338"/>
==Etymology==
His name in [[Quenya]] means "Scion of the [[Eldar]]". In [[Letter 338]], [[J.R.R. Tolkien]] spelled this name '''Eldaron''', this is probably a typographic error.<ref name="L338"/>

== Genealogy ==
Eldarion was descended from several royal Elven houses, including the Three High Kings of the Elves, and from the [[Edain]]. He was a grandson of [[Elrond]] and, through his grandmother [[Celebrían]], a great-grandson of [[Galadriel]]. He was the great-grandson of [[Eärendil]] the Mariner (Eldarion is descended from Eärendil on both sides of his family and in him the two genealogical lines of the [[Half-elven]] are reunited), through his Half-elven mother Arwen; he was also the nephew of the Half-elf lords [[Elladan]] and [[Elrohir]]. He was descended also from the great [[Kings of Númenor|Kings of Westernesse]] on his father's side. As well as being the [[Heir of Isildur]] and [[High King of the Dúnedain|High King]], his descent from Elrond through Arwen made Eldarion the lord of the remaining Elf-lands of Middle-earth.<ref name="Elendil">{{PM|Elendil}}</ref>

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

'''''Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor''''' is an open world action-adventure video game developed by [[Monolith Productions]]. Released in 2014, the story takes place between ''[[The Hobbit]]'' and ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'', acting as a bridge between the two eras. The protagonist's name is Talion, a [[Gondorian]] [[Ranger]] stationed at the [[Black Gate]]. Talion's family is slain the night the Dark Lord [[Sauron]] and his [[Uruk-Hai]] forces return to reclaim [[Mordor]], setting the Ranger on a quest for revenge after he is possessed and sustained from death by a mysterious [[Wraith]].

==Plot synopsis==
The family of [[Talion]], a ranger who guards the black gates into [[Mordor]], is brutally killed by the [[Black Hand of Sauron]]. Talion is also killed but is brought back to life merged with a wraith that gives him inhuman powers. He ventures into Mordor to exact revenge and to help the [[Celebrimbor|wraith]] find his past identity and what brings the two together.

==Gameplay==
''Shadow of Mordor'' is an open-world action/adventure game that is set entirely within Mordor.<ref>{{webcite|author=Chris Plante|articleurl=http://www.theverge.com/2014/10/1/6881161/middle-earth-shadow-of-mordor-torture-terrorism|articlename='Shadow of Mordor' is morally repulsive and I can't stop playing it|dated=31-May-2011|website=[http://www.theverge.com The Verge]|accessed=July 29, 2015}}</ref> The overworld is mainly populated by [[Uruk-hai|Uruks]], as well as never-before-seen creatures, such as the cat-like Caragors and troll-like Graugs.

One defining feature of the game is the Nemesis System, which allows the game to remember Uruks of a certain notability and track their progress as they rise from lowly soldiers to high-ranking captains and even war-chiefs. Most of these Uruks are randomly-generated and can vary in appearance, name, personality, and strengths/weaknesses. the Captains can randomly be found among the anonymous masses, though the war-chiefs can only be encountered by completing certain objectives to draw them out of hiding.

There are a number of tactics and strategies that can be exploited to kill Uruks: In addition to killing them in normal combat, one can also poison a nearby barrel of grog and let Uruk-hai drink from it, grapple them and throw them over the edge of a cliff or platform, set Caragors loose on them by breaking open their cages, launch sneak attacks from above or behind, or "brand" Uruks with the Wraith's powers to brainwash them and pit them against other Orcs.

==Differences between versions==
The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game are severely lacking in comparison to their counterparts for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One: The PS3/360 versions features a simplified Nemesis system, poor framerate, longer loading times, and Graugs are very rarely encountered outside of missions. As such, the hunting challenges involving the Graugs and their variants are omitted from these versions of the game.

==Plot synopsis With Spoilers==
The family of Talion, a ranger who guards the black gates into Mordor, is brutally killed by the Black Hand of Sauron. Talion is also killed but is brought back to life merged with a wraith that gives him inhuman powers. He ventures into Mordor to exact revenge and to help the wraith find his past identity and what brings the two together. Through a series of quests with [[Gollum]], Talion and the wraith find relics that give the wraith his memories back in the form of visions. After completing all three Gollum Quests, the wraith is revealed to be Celebrimbor, the elven blacksmith who was tricked into forging the rings of power by Sauron during the [[Second Age]]. Talion also reunites with a fellow ranger, [[Hirgon]] and in a series of missions saves Hirgon's wife, poisons orc grog, and helps the rangers destroy a statue of Sauron in Mordor. Talion and Celebrimbor also meet an orc named [[Ratbag the Coward]]. Talion frees Ratbag from his binds and makes a deal; Ratbag will rank up in Sauron's army as long as he helps Talion kill the warchiefs. After three quests, Ratbag becomes a warchief and the deal is ended. After all of the previous missions, Talion attracts the attention of The [[Hammer of Sauron]]. The Hammer kills Ratbag, the only remaining warchief, for his insolence, and Talion kills the Hammer.

Mary Fairburn

'''Mary Fairburn''' (born 13 [[June]] [[1933]]) is an English artist and musician, best known for her illustrations for [[The Lord of the Rings]], which in [[1968]] were seen and admired by [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]]. Her illustrations, unknown until [[2012]], were published as a body by HarperCollins in the Official Tolkien Calendar [[2015]]. Fairburn has been living in Australia since [[1976]].
Fairburn was born in London. She was educated at St. Swinthun's School for girls, Winchester, the Winchester School of Art and the Institute of Education, University of London. In the mid-1950s, she taught art at St. Bonaventure's boys' school Forest Gate, east of London, and in [[1958]] took a job at Masjid-i-Sulieman, Iran, teaching art and music to the children of the employees of an American oil company. In [[1957]] and again in the early 1960's, she painted a number of (now destroyed) murals on religious subjects at St. Peter's primary school in Winchester. She travelled in Europe and Africa during [[1962]] to [[1965]]. She returned to Winchester, and held a number of exhibitions.
In [[1967]] she left England, intending to drive across Europe and Asia to Australia, but had to turn back at India due to bureaucratic difficulties. She wintered in Teheran, where a friend was working for the British Council, and read his copy of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. On her return to England, she executed a suite of pictures based on the novel, mainly in coloured ink, and in [[May]] [[1968]] sent them to [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]]. He wrote back in strongly approving terms, telling Fairburn her pictures were "splendid. They are better pictures in themselves and also show far more attention to the text than any that have yet been submitted to me" (letter of 24 [[May]] [[1968]]). In a subsequent letter, he wrote, "After seeing your specimens I am beginning to change my mind [that is, about not having The Lord of the Rings illustrated], and I think that an illustrated edition might be a good thing." However, soon after this, Tolkien broke his leg in a fall, and was hospitalised; Fairburn was in difficult financial circumstances and needed to urgently pursue more immediately rewarding work, and the [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]] family home in Oxford was packed up for a move to the English south coast. As a result of these disruptions the negotiations between the writer and artist went no further.
Unable to find secure housing or employment, Mary Fairburn left England in autumn [[1974]], and travelled through Asia, eventually settling in Melbourne, Australia, where she taught a range of courses for the Council for Adult Education, and met her husband, Patrick Currie Flegg. They retired to Castlemaine, Victoria, in [[1993]]. She became involved there with a number of musical ensembles, notably Odds and Sods.
Her art work has been exhibited in Winchester, Amantea (Italy), Melbourne and Castlemaine.
Her young adult fantasy novel, Selangath: A Legend of the Sea, with her own illustrations, was self-published in [[2019]].

'''Mary Incledon''' is the cousin of [[J.R.R. Tolkien| Tolkien]], she is also the sister of [[Majorie Incledon]].
She invented the [[Animalic]] language with her sister which [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]]. She also helped [[J.R.R. Tolkien|him]] to create the [[Nevbosh]] language.

Animalic

2020-02-07T18:06:37Z

Aarrnn:

'''Animalic''' was a private language invented by [[Mary Incledon]] and [[Marjorie Incledon]], [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]]'s young cousins, around [[1905]]. [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]], then about ten years old and already strong in Latin and Anglo-Saxon, found it amusing and learned it. The only surviving fragment of the Animalic is the phrase given by [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]] in [[The Monsters and the Critics]] p. 200: Dog nightingale woodpecker forty, meaning "you are a donkey". Forty was the Animalic word for "donkey" while donkey was the word for 40. It appears that the Animalic was a rather awkward language; certainly it was not rational that extremely frequent grammatical words like "are" or the article "one / one" be rendered by long words like nightingale and woodpecker. We will never know how many animal words [[Mary Incledon|Mary]] and [[Majorie Incledon|her sister]] made. Tolkien's judgment is harsh, but justified : the Animalic was "raw ... to the extreme" (MC: 200). However, he was one of his very first acquaintances in invented language, perhaps the first. And he was going to generate the [[Nevbosh]] - the first invented language to which [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]] contributed.

'''Animalic''’ was a private language invented by Mary and Marjorie Incledon, Tolkien's young cousins, around 1905. Tolkien, then about ten years old and already strong in Latin and Anglo-Saxon, found it amusing and learned it. The only surviving fragment of the Animalic is the phrase given by Tolkien in The Monsters and the Critics p. 200: Dog nightingale woodpecker forty, meaning "you are a donkey", the animal and nothing else. Forty was the Animal word for "donkey" while donkey was the word for 40. It appears that the Animalic was a rather awkward language; certainly it was not rational that extremely frequent grammatical words like "are" or the article "one / one" be rendered by long words like nightingale and woodpecker. We will never know how many animal words Mary and her sister made. Tolkien's judgment is harsh, but justified : the Animal was "raw ... to the extreme" (MC: 200) .However, he was one of his very first acquaintances in invented language, perhaps the first. And he was going to generate the Nevbosh - the first invented language to which Tolkien contributed.

'''The Grey Havens''' is the ninth and final chapter of the second book of ''[[The Return of the King]]'', the final volume of ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]''.

==Summary==
Now that [[the Shire]]'s brief police state had been overthrown,<ref>{{RK|Scouring}}</ref> the [[Hobbits]] rebuilt the villages of the region. [[Samwise Gamgee|Sam]] opened the box [[Galadriel]] had given him<ref>{{FR|Farewell}}</ref> and found a small silver seed, which he planted. In the [[Party Field]], a [[Mallorn]] sprang up to replace the old tree that had been cut down. Many children were born that year. [[Meriadoc Brandybuck|Merry]] and [[Peregrin Took|Pippin]] became heroes in the Shire, but [[Frodo Baggins|Frodo]] quietly retired. That spring, Sam married [[Rose Cotton|Rose Cotton]], [[Tolman Cotton Senior|Farmer Cotton]]'s daughter, and they lived at [[Bag End]] with Frodo.

[[Frodo Baggins|Frodo]] decided to travel to [[Rivendell]] to see [[Bilbo Baggins|Bilbo]]. [[Frodo Baggins|Frodo]] entrusted to [[Samwise Gamgie|Sam]] a history of the War, written in part by [[Bilbo Baggins|Bilbo]]. Frodo, Sam, and others set out. As they entered the [[Woody End]], they met [[Elrond]] and [[Galadriel]], who now wore two of the [[Three Rings|Three Elven Rings]]. Riding slowly behind the two elves was Bilbo himself. Sam and Frodo accompanied the travellers to the [[Belegaer|Great Sea]]. When they reached the gates of the [[Grey Havens]], they found [[Gandalf]], wearing the [[Narya|last]] of the Three Rings, waiting for them. Beyond him was a great white ship, ready to sail to the West across the sea.

Pippin and Merry appeared, wishing to be present at Frodo's departure. Frodo sadly bade farewell to his three friends, kissed them, and boarded the ship. Gandalf entreated the three hobbits to enjoy each other's friendship as they quietly returned to the Shire. Sam entered his warm home, where he found [[Rosie Cotton|Rosie]] waiting. She put their young daughter, [[Elanor Gardner|Elanor]], in his lap, and Sam drew a deep breath and said, "Well, I'm back."

[[File:Hilary Tolkien.jpg|frame]]
'''Hilary Arthur Reuel Tolkien''' ([[17 February]] [[1894]] — [[1976]]) was [[J.R.R. Tolkien]]'s younger brother and son of [[Arthur Tolkien]] and [[Mabel Suffield]]. He was born in Bloemfontein, South Africa.

As a very young man, Hilary became involved in agriculture. After his military service (he began as a bugler, and received " multiple minor schrapnel wounds" in process of moving materiel in support services) he bought a small orchard and farm at Evesham, Worchestershire, where he spent the rest of his life. [[J.R.R. Tolkien]]'s wife and children stayed with him on occasion.

He married Ann Madeline (Magdalen) Matthews in [[1928]]. Their first son, Gabriel, was born in [[1931]], Julian in [[1935]], and Paul in [[1938]].

Hilary Tolkien had a dog which he called Bilbo when it was good, and Baggins when it was bad.<ref>[[Wayne G. Hammond]] and [[Christina Scull]] (2006), ''[[The J.R.R. Tolkien Companion and Guide]]: Chronology'', p. 758</ref>

'''Aragorn I''' ({{TA|2227}}<ref>{{PM|Elendil}}, p. 196</ref> - {{TA|2327|n}},<ref name="North">{{App|North}}</ref> died aged 100) was the son of [[Aravir]], and fifth [[Chieftain of the Dúnedain]].

==History==
Little is known of his life as it was during the [[Watchful Peace]], other than that he succeeded his father when Aravir died in 2319. It is likely that his short rule was uneventful, with small battles to free the lands of evil.

Indeed, after having ruled as Chieftain for only eight years, his life was cut short in {{TA|2327}}, when he was killed by wild [[wolves]] in [[Eriador]] (which were always a peril in that land). He was succeeded by his son [[Araglas]].<ref>{{App|Eriador}}</ref><ref name="North"/>

==Etymology==
Aragorn's name is [[Sindarin]], and means "Revered King", from ''[[ara]]'', a prefix for royalty, and ''gorn'' "revered". See also [[Aragorn#Etymology|here]] for his homonym [[Aragorn II]], the king of the [[Reunited Kingdom]].<ref>{{PE|17}}</ref>

Viking Club

2020-02-01T16:42:24Z

Aarrnn: Link for the 2015 year

The '''Viking Club''' was a club for philologists and historians specializing in Germanic and Scandinavian studies.<ref>{{L|7}}</ref> It was founded by [[E.V. Gordon]] and [[J.R.R. Tolkien]] when the two were professors at [[University of Leeds|Leeds University]] in the 1920s. At meetings of the club students and faculty would gather to read [[Old Norse|Old Icelandic]] sagas and drink together in an informal setting. Members of the club also invented original songs and poems in [[Old English]], [[Gothic]], [[Old Norse]] and other extinct Germanic languages. A collection of these works was privately published as ''[[Songs for the Philologists]]''.

Similar groups have continued at Leeds University since the time of Tolkien and Gordon. As of [[2015]] the successor of the Viking Club was known as the Old Norse Reading Group, and associated with Gordon's distant successor, Alaric Hall.
