LOTR20: Day 1: history: The Blue Wizards

They must have had very great influence on the history of the Second Age and Third Age in weakening and disarraying the forces of East ... who would both in the Second Age and Third Age otherwise have ... outnumbered the West.

Source: Last Writings | The Peoples of Middle-earth ✔All arts are mine and can be found on my blog. Today an awesome #lotrweek starts and I want to celebrate it by recalling my favorite and so underrated heroes - Ithryn Luin - Alatar Morinehtar and Pallando Romestamo. In his last writings Professor Tolkien revised their story and aknowledged the great impact they have had on a history of Middle-Earth. Their heroic deeds and sacrifices left vague but yet we can clearly see Professor's commitment to tell us more about their fate and Faithful Haradrim\Easterlings. What a story it could be... we can only guess now.

Special thanks to @lotr20 for welcoming any works based on LOTR - not movies only ❤

They were clothed in the bodies of old men, restricting their powers so that they would only assist to the peoples of Middle-earth and not seek domination like Sauron, who was also a Maia. By inhabiting the bodies of Men they were ordered by the Valar to assist the people of Middle-earth through persuasion and encouragement, not force or fear. Being clothed in the bodies of Men they also became susceptible to all the weaknesses of a physical body, they felt hunger, pain, greed, sorrow, joy, and all other emotions and pains of Men.

Long they journeyed far and wide among Elves and Men, and held converse also with beasts and with birds; and the peoples of Middle-earth gave to them many names, for their true names they did not reveal.
