Dear all,

Day 1 of the party has been a great success: 170 comments on 2 pages so far. As agreed, I hereby kick off the second day, so that we won't lose everything like last year, should LJ crash our party again.

Threads of interest can still be commented on, but I ask you to start any new threads here from now on

And now: on with the party!!!

Short summary: After the battle of Azanulbizar, the remnants of Durin's Folk settled in Ered Luin, and laboured hard to build a new life there. But one day, Riders from the south came looking for skilled stonemasons. The Orcs, driven from the Misty Mountains, were now raiding Rohan; and the Hornburg, the refuge of the Eorlingas, was crumbling. Thorin and his companions set out with the Riders...

Why do I recommend it?
Well, firstly because it's about the Rohirrim, aside from being about Dwarves. Secondly, because it takes place in the times of King Brytta (otherwise known as Léofa) of Rohan, only two generations after Helm Hammerhand, and stories from that era are practically nonexistent. Thirdly, because it's well-written and as canonical as possible, despite the few movie elements. Enjoy!

One minor comment: I didn't have the time to check the timeline, so I'm not sure it actually works, but the story is a very good one, even if it does not.
