Green Dragon Ep 21 Istari

"Emissaries they were from the Lords of the West, the Valar, who still took counsel for the governance of Middle-earth, and when the shadow of Sauron began first to stir again took this means of resisting him. For with the consent of Eru they sent members of their own high order, but clad in the bodies of Men, real and not feigned, but subject to the fears and pains and weariness of earth, able to hunger and thirst and be slain; though because of their noble spirits they did not die, and aged only by the cares of labours of many long years." It's that time again, your monthly extended episode of the Green Dragon! This time around we have our usual Month in Middle-earth, discussing our exploits at Ark 2016; A Shadow of the Past looking at Shadow and Flame, one of the earliest sourcebooks; a Lore segment about the Istari, or wizards, sent to Middle-earth by the Valar to combat Sauron; and finish up with an extra un-hasty Entmoot! (We have also added a "Player Shoutout" section before the Entmoot, depending on the response this may continue each week so if you are looking for fellow gamers in your area, let us know!) So join Jeremy, Kylie, David and Matt for an episode filled with shadows, flames, laughs and Radagast! (Me?)
