  1. Now even while Feanor and the craftsmen of the Noldor worked with delight, foreseeing no end to their labours, and while the sons of Indis grew to their full stature, the Noontide of Valinor was drawing to its close. For it came to pass that Melkor, as the Valar had decreed, completed the term of his bondage, dwelling for three ages in the duress of Mandos, alone. At length, as Manwe had promised, he was brought again before the thrones of the Valar. Then he looked upon their glory and their bliss, and envy was in his heart; he looked upon the Children of Iluvatar that sat at the feet of the Mighty, and hatred filled him; he looked upon the wealth of bright gems, and he lusted for them; but he hid his thoughts, and postponed his vengeance. Before the gates of Valmar Melkor abased himself at the feet of Manwe and sued for pardon, vowing that if he might be made only the least of the free people of Valinor he would aid the Valar in all their works, and most of all in the healing of the many hurts that he had done to the world. And Nienna aided his prayer; but Mandos was silent. Then Manwe granted him pardon; but the Valar would not yet suffer him to depart beyond their sight and vigilance, and he was constrained to dwell within the gates of Valmar. But fair-seeming were all the words and deeds of Melkor in that time, and both the Valar and the Eldar had profit from his aid and counsel, if they sought it; and therefore in a while he was given leave to go freely about the land, and it seemed to Manwe that the evil of Melkor was cured. For Manwe was free from evil and could not comprehend it, and he knew that in the beginning, in the thought of Iluvatar, Melkor had been even as he; and he saw not to the depths of Melkor's heart, and did not perceive that all love had departed from him for ever. But Ulmo was not deceived, and Tulkas clenched his hands whenever he saw Melkor his foe go by; for if Tulkas is slow to wrath he is slow also to forget. But they obeyed the judgment of Manwe; for those who will defend authority against rebellion must not themselves rebel. - J.R.R. Tolkien, "Of Feanor and the Unchaining of Melkor" The Noldor find their hearts gladdened by the fair land of Valinor and the craft and skill of the Valar. Song bursts forth continually from Taniquetil, the palace of Valmar basks in the glow of the living Two Trees, and even the twilight hours are sanctified by festival and rejoicing. There seems to be no bounds to the bliss or the endeavours of the Noldor, and the greatest of these first Children of Iluvatar already seek to prove their cunning and reflect the light and joy of the holy city. Yet amidst this, the most ancient foe lurks; he who first broke the lamps of Valinor and plunged Middle-earth into darkness, whose fastness in the ancient strongholds of Utumno and Angband was never fully plummeted and rooted out, whose new clemency poses an existential threat to the cooperation of the Noldoli and the Valar. Melkor, He Who Arises in Might, roams free again. And Arda may not escape the doom of his coming a second time, unless the Noldor themselves can resist his lies... Welcome to QF62! The rules for the game may be accessed here. They are also, in slightly less organised form, presented in the spoiler below. Changes to the rules based on playercount, if any, will be announced C1. Please participate if you can, as it will be more fun with everyone joining in. If you intend to spectate, or would like to co-GM to help with writeups or PMs, do tell me that as well, and I will accomodate you as best I can. (Eru, that sounded so much like a line from a syllabus. Can you tell it's the start of the school year? ) This game will begin in a week's time, at 10:00 PM on Sunday 4 September at 10:00 PM EDT (-4:00 UTC). Unless circumstances change, this will also be the standard rollover time. My IM for this game will be edited into this space once I receive one, and as usual, you may go to him or her with any concerns you may have about the game. Thank you all! I'm looking forward to a fun Tolkien game, so please RP and have fun. And if you want help with a character I will make one for you I will help you find something you like Good luck!
