The Mouth of Sauron
Diary of a Tolkien Fiend
Saturday, December 06, 2003
 
It's snowing here in New York City, which is mostly a good thing because it means I've been hibernating for the past few days, and that's given me more time to work on my various online projects. I'm starting to go a little stir-crazy, though, but it helps to have the internet to keep me occupied. I have some minor news regarding the Lugburz Message Board: I've renewed our CSC Gold (the service that keeps the board ad-free) for another year. Also, I've come to the conclusion that Witchking and I have been seriously neglecting the board of late, which may be part of the reason why it's been so dead. Witchking in particular has been posting infrequently even for him; he explains why here. For my part, while I have been posting more or less regularly, I realized that I haven't started any quality topics in a really long time. So I took some time out today to start a new Tolkien-related discussion: The Magic of Elves, Wizards, Demons & Sorcerers. The purpose of the discussion is to better understand how magic fits into Tolkien's world, what its nature is, and what the relationship is between different types of magic in Middle-earth. If you have something to contribute to this discussion, please feel free to join in at any time.

The rider was robed all in black, and black was his lofty helm; yet this was no Ringwraith but a living man. The Lieutenant of the Tower of Barad-dur he was, and his name is remembered in no tale; for he himself had forgotten it, and he said: 'I am the Mouth of Sauron.' J.R.R. Tolkien
