While I was in town yesterday, I discovered a series of books that are pertinent to my people. I would like very much if the people from my world would read them, but I would also like to offer them to those from different places.

They tell the story and tragedy of my people, and all the griefs we have suffered. They are not an easy read - indeed, they are quite a painful one - and yet they explain our sorrows and hearts better than anything else ever could.

Please, let me know if you are interested. I think it would be a good way to start a conversation between the different peoples of the island.

	My Lord Elrond would not let his daughter out on such an errand, and she would never deign to do it herself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, I'm sure I'd love to read them, ma'am, if I hadn't come from such a place of heartbreaking misery myself...! I mean, I don't know how much more heartache I can really take! Sorry.... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I've read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings but I haven't read any more of Tolkien's works. You could tell he was a language professor, he used a hundred words where ten would do. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It is The Silmarillion which tells of my people, but my son does not seem in favor of people reading it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	izzyshaw 2013-06-25 02:35 pm UTC (link)
	I can understand that. I'd rather people got to know about me by talking to me rather than reading about me in a book somewhere. (Reply to this) (Parent)
