That was really brutal.

All right.

I should have known that was coming.

All right.

Thank you, Don.

Folks, join us as the Druidine's laughter proves wonderfully contagious, and we begin a two-episode look at the mysterious people that the Druidine are, and we read about them in the Unfinished Tales.

Of course, we do have not only the conversations, digressions, and speculations.

We have bad jokes and apparently really, really insulting jokes at that.

But our purpose is not to make fun of each other.

It is to dive deep into the lore.

to discuss the story, our favorite characters, themes, talk about Tolkien's inspirations, and a whole lot more.

Indeed we are, and I'm sure you'll be glad you joined as well.

But before we get to today's chapter discussion, it's time for Fan Favorite Philology Fair.

I always love that.
