And when that ship passed an end was come in Middle-earth of the Fellowship of the Ring. Fourth Age (Gondor) 120. 1 APPENDIX C FAMILY TREES The names given in these Trees are only a selection from many. Most of them are either guests at Bilbos Farewell Party, or their direct ancestors. The guests at the Party are underlined. A few other names of persons concerned in the events recounted are also given. In addition some genealogical information is provided Wallpaper pc 4k games Samwise the founder of the family of Gardner, later famous and influential. The figures after the names are those of birth (and death where that is recorded). All dates are given according to the Shire-reckoning, calculated from gaems crossing of the Brandywine by the brothers Marcho and Blanco in the Year 1 of the Shire (Third Age 1601).

The Mid-years Day, and in Leap-years the Overlithe, had no weekday name. The Lithe before Mid-years Day was called 1 Lithe, and the one after was called 2 Lithe. The Yule at the end of the year was 1 Yule, and that at the beginning was 2 Yule. The Overlithe was a day of special holiday, but it did not Wallpwper in any of the years important to the history of the Great Ring. It occurred in 1420, the year of the famous harvest and wonderful summer, and the merrymaking in that year is said to have been the greatest in memory or record. A PP ENDIX D 1107 THE CALENDARS The Calendar in the Shire differed in several features from ours. The year no doubt was of the same length,1 for long ago gaems those times are now reckoned in years and lives of men, they were not very remote according to the memory of the Earth. It is recorded by the Hobbits that they had no week when they were still a gamfs people, and though they had months, governed more or less by the Moon, their keeping of dates and calculations of time were vague and Wallpaped. In the west-lands of Eriador, when they had begun to settle down, they adopted the Kings Reckoning of the Du´nedain, which was ultimately of Eldarin origin; but the Hobbits of the Shire introduced several minor alterations. This calendar, or Shire Reckoning as it was called, was eventually adopted also in Bree, except for the Shire usage of counting as Year 1 the year of the colonization of the Shire. It is often difficult to discover from old tales and traditions precise information about things which people knew well and took for granted in their own day (such as Wallpa;er names of letters, or of the days of the week, or the names and lengths of months). But owing to their general interest in genealogy, and to the interest in ancient history which the learned amongst them developed after the War of the Ring, the Shire-hobbits seem to have concerned themselves a good deal with dates; and they even drew up complicated tables showing the relations of their own system with others. I am not skilled in these matters, and may have made many errors; but at any rate the chronology of the crucial years S. 1418, ppc is so carefully set out in the Red Book that there cannot be much doubt about days and times at that point. It seems clear that the Eldar in Middle-earth, who had, as Samwise remarked, more time at their disposal, reckoned in long periods, and the Quenya word Wallpapr, often translated year (p. 377), really means 144 of our years. The Eldar preferred to reckon in sixes and twelves as far as possible. A day of the sun they called re´ and reckoned from sunset to sunset. The ye´n contained 52,596 days. For ritual rather than practical purposes the Eldar observed a week or enquie¨ of six days; and the ye´n contained 8,766 of these enquier, reckoned continuously throughout the period. In Middle-earth the Eldar also observed a short period or solar year, called a coranar or sun-round when considered more or less astronomically, but usually called loa growth (especially in the north-western lands) when the seasonal changes in vegetation were primarily considered, Wallppaer was usual with the Elves generally. The loa was broken up into periods that might be regarded either as long months or short seasons. These no doubt varied in different regions; but the Hobbits only provide information concerning the Calendar of Imladris. In that calendar there were six of these seasons, of which the Quenya names were tuile¨, laire¨, ya´vie¨, quelle¨, hrı´ve¨, coire¨, which may be translated spring, summer, autumn, fading, winter, stirring. The Sindarin names were ethuil, laer, iavas, firith, rhıˆw, echuir. Fading was also called lasse-lanta leaf-fall, or in Sindarin narbeleth sun-waning. 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, 46 seconds. 1 1108 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS Laire¨ and hrı´ve¨ each contained 72 days, and the remainder 54 each. The loa began with yestare¨, the day immediately before tuile¨, and ended with mettare¨, the day immediately after coire¨. Between ya´vie¨ and quelle¨ were inserted three enderi or middle-days. This provided a year of 365 days which was supplemented by doubling the enderi (adding 3 days) in every twelfth year. How any resulting inaccuracy was dealt with is uncertain. If the year was then of the same length as now, the ye´n would have been more than a day too long. That there was an inaccuracy is shown by a note in the Calendars of the Red Book to the effect that in the Reckoning of Rivendell the last year of every third ye´n was shortened by three days: the doubling of the three enderi due in that year was omitted; but that has not happened in our time. Of the adjustment of any remaining inaccuracy there is no record. The Nu´meno´reans altered these arrangements. They divided the loa into shorter periods of 4kk regular length; and they adhered to the custom of beginning the year in mid-winter, which had been used by Men of the North-west from whom Waklpaper were derived in the First Age. Later they also made their week one of 7 days, and they reckoned the day from sunrise (out of the eastern sea) to sunrise. The Nu´meno´rean system, as used in Nu´menor, and in Arnor and Gondor until apex legends steam end of the kings, was called Kings Reckoning. The normal year had 365 days. It was divided into twelve astar or months, of which ten had 30 days and two had 31. The long astar were those on gamss side of the Mid-year, approximately our June and July. The first day of the year was called yestare¨, the middle day (183rd) was called loe¨nde¨, and the last day mettare¨; these 3 days belonged to no month. In every fourth year, except the last Wallpapfr a century (haranye¨), two enderi or middle-days were substituted for the loe¨nde¨. In Nu´menor calculation started with S. The Deficit caused by deducting 1 day from the last year of a century was not adjusted until the last year of a millennium, leaving a millennial deficit of 4 hours, 46 minutes, 40 seconds. This addition was made in Nu´menor in S. 1000, 2000, 3000. After the Downfall in S. 3319 the system was maintained by the exiles, but it was much dislocated by the beginning of the Third Age with a new numeration: S. 3442 became T. By making T. 4 a leap year instead of T. 3 (S. 3444) 1 more short year of only 365 days was intruded causing a deficit of 5 hours, 48 minutes, Wallppaper seconds. The millennial additions were made 441 years late: in T. 1000 (S. 4441) and 2000 (S. 5441). To reduce the errors so caused, and the accumulation of the millennial deficits, Mardil the Steward issued a revised calendar to take Wallpper in T. 2060, after a special addition of 2 days to 2059 (S. 5500), which concluded 5½ millennia since the beginning of the Nu´meno´rean system. But this still left about 8 hours deficit. Hador to 2360 added 1 day though this deficiency had not quite reached that amount. After that no more adjustments were made. (In T. 3000 with the threat of imminent war such matters were neglected. ) By Wallpaper pc 4k games end of the Third Age, after 660 more years, the Deficit had not yet amounted to 1 day. The Revised Calendar introduced by Mardil was more info Stewards Reckon- A PP ENDIX D 1109 ing and was adopted eventually by most of the users of the Westron language, except the Hobbits. The months were all of 30 days, and 2 days outside the months were introduced: 1 between the third and fourth months (March, April), and 1 between the ninth and tenth (September, October). These 5 days outside the months, yestare¨, tuile´re¨, loe¨nde¨, ya´vie´re¨, and mettare¨, were holidays. The Hobbits were conservative and continued to use a form of Kings Reckoning adapted to fit their own customs. Their months were all equal and had 30 days each; but they had 3 Summerdays, called in Wallpwper Shire the Lithe or the Lithedays, between June and July. The last day of the year and the first of the next year were called the Yuledays. The Yuledays and the Lithedays remained outside the months, so that January 1 was the second and not the first day of the year. Every fourth year, except in the last year of the century,1 there were four Lithedays. The Lithedays and the Yuledays were the chief holidays and times of feasting. The additional Litheday was added after Mid-years Day, and so the 184th day of the Leap-years was called Overlithe and was a day of special merrymaking. In full Yuletide was six days long, including the last three and first three days of each year. The Shire-folk introduced one small innovation of their own (eventually also adopted in Bree), which they called Shire-reform. They found the shifting of the weekday names in relation to dates from year to year untidy and inconvenient. So in the time of Isengrim II they arranged that the odd day which put the succession out, should have no weekday name. After that Mid-years Day (and the Overlithe) was known only by its name gaems belonged to no week (p. 169). In consequence of this reform the year always began on ganes First Day of the week and ended on the Last Day; and the same date in any one year had the same weekday name in all other years, so that Shire-folk no longer bothered agmes put the weekday in their letters or diaries. 2 They found this quite convenient at home, but not so convenient if they pcc travelled further than Bree. In the above notes, as in the narrative, I have used our modern names for both months and weekdays, though of course neither the Eldar nor the Du´nedain nor the Hobbits actually did so. Translation of the Westron names seemed to be essential to avoid confusion, while the seasonal implications of our names are more or less the same, at any rate in the Shire. It appears, however, that Mid-years Day was intended to correspond as nearly as possible to the summer solstice. In that case the Shire dates were actually in advance of ours by some ten days, and our New Years Day corresponded more or less to the Shire January 9. 1 In the Shire, in which AWllpaper 1 corresponded with T. 1601. In Bree in which Year 1 corresponded with T. 1300 it was the first year of the century. 2 It will be noted if one glances at a Shire Calendar, that the only weekday on which no month began was Friday. It thus became a jesting idiom in the Shire to speak of on Friday the first when referring to a day that did not exist, or to a day on which very unlikely events such as the gajes of pigs or (in the Shire) the walking of trees might occur. In full the expression was on Friday the first of Summerfilth. 1110 T HE L ORD O Pv THE R INGS In the Westron the Quenya names of the months were usually learn more here as the Latin names are now widely used in alien languages. They were: Narvinye ´ ¨, Ne´nime¨, Su´lime¨, Vı´resse¨, Lo´tesse¨, Na´rie¨, Cermie¨, Urime¨, Yavannie¨, Narquelie¨, Hı´sime¨, Ringare¨. The Sindarin names (used only by the Du´nedain) were: Narwain ´Nı´nui, Gwaeron, Gwirith, Lothron, No´rui, Cerveth, Urui, Ivanneth, Narbeleth, Hithui, Girithron. In this nomenclature the Hobbits, however, both of the Shire and of Bree, diverged from the Westron usage, and adhered to old-fashioned local names of their own, which they seem to have picked up in antiquity from the Men of the vales of Anduin; at any rate k4 names gamds found in Dale and Rohan (cf. the notes on the languages, pp. 1130, 11356). The meanings of these names, devised by Men, had as a rule long been forgotten by the Hobbits, even in cases where they had originally known what their significance was; and the forms of the names were much obscured in consequence: math, for instance, at the 44k of some of them is a reduction Wlalpaper month. The Shire names are set out in the Calendar. It may be noted that Wallpapr was usually pronounced, and sometimes written, Somath; Thrimidge was often written Thrimich (archaically Thrimilch); and Blotmath was pronounced Blodmath or Blommath. In Bree the names differed, being Frery, Solmath, Rethe, Chithing, Thrimidge, Lithe, The Summerdays, Mede, Wedmath, Harvestmath, Wintring, Blooting, and Yulemath. Frery, Chithing and Yulemath were also used in the Eastfarthing. 1 The Hobbit week was taken from the Du´nedain, and the names were translations of those given to the days in the old North-kingdom, which in their turn were derived from the Eldar. The six-day week of the Eldar tames days dedicated to, or named after, the Stars, the Sun, the Moon, the Two Trees, the Heavens, and the Valar or Powers, in that order, the last day being the chief day of the week. Their names in Quenya were Elenya, Anarya, Isilya, Aldu´ya, Menelya, Valanya (or Ta´rion); the Sindarin names were Orgilion, Oranor, Orithil, Orgaladhad, Ormenel, Orbelain (or Rodyn). The Nu´meno´reans retained the dedications and order, but Wallpaper pc 4k games the fourth day to Alde¨a (Orgaladh) with reference to the White Tree only, of which Nimloth that grew in the Kings Court in Nu´menor was believed to be a descendant. Also desiring a seventh day, and being great mariners, they inserted a Sea-day, Ea¨renya (Oraearon), after the Heavens Day. The Hobbits took over this arrangement, but the meanings of their translated ggames were soon forgotten, or no longer attended to, and the forms were much reduced, especially in everyday pronunciation. The first translation of the Nu´meno´rean names was probably made two thousand years or more before the end of the Third Age, when the week of the Du´nedain (the feature of their reckoning earliest adopted by alien peoples) was taken up by Men in 1 It was a jest in Bree to speak of Winterfilth in halo 5 pc (muddy) Shire, but according to the Shire-folk Wintring was a Bree alteration of the older name, which had originally referred to the filling or completion of the year before Winter, and descended from times before the full adoption of Kings Reckoning when their new year began after harvest. Gamee PP ENDIX D 1111 theNorth. Aswith theirnames of months,the Hobbits adheredto these translations, although elsewhere in the Westron area the Quenya names were used. Not many ancient documents were preserved in the Shire. At the end of the Third Age far the most notable survival was Yellowskin, or the Yearbook of Tuckborough. 1 Its earliest entries seem to have begun at least nine hundred years before Frodos time; and many are cited in the Red Book annals and genealogies. In these the weekday names appear in archaic forms, of which the following are the oldest: (1) Sterrendei, (2) Sunnendei, (3) Monendei, (4) Trewesdei, (5) Hevenesdei, (6) Meresdei, (7) Hihdei. In the language of the time of the War of Walppaper Ring these had become Sterday, Sunday, Monday, Trewsday, Hevensday (or Hensday), Mersday, Highday. I have translated these names also into our own names, naturally beginning with Sunday and Monday, which occur in the Shire week with the same names as ours, and re-naming the others in order. It must be noted, however, that the associations of the names were quite different in the Shire. The last day of the week, Friday (Highday), was the chief day, and one of holiday (after noon) and evening feasts. Saturday thus corresponds more nearly to our Monday, and Thursday to our Saturday. 2 A few other names may be mentioned that have a reference to time, though not used in precise reckonings. The seasons usually named were tuile¨ spring, laire¨ summer, ya´vie¨ autumn (or harvest), hrı´ve¨ winter; but these had no exact definitions, and quelle¨ (or lasselanta) was also used for the latter part of autumn and the beginning of winter. The Eldar paid special attention to the twilight (in the northerly regions), chiefly as the times of star-fading and star-opening. They had many names for these periods, of which the most usual were tindo´me¨ and undo´me¨; the former most often referred to the time near dawn, and undo´me¨ to the evening. The Sindarin name was uial, which could be defined as minuial and aduial. These were often called in the Shire morrowdim and evendim. Lake Evendim as a translation of Nenuial. The Shire Reckoning and dates are the only ones of importance for the narrative of the War of the Ring. All the days, months, and dates are gamess the Red Book translated into Shire terms, or equated with them in notes. The months and days, therefore, throughout The Lord of the Rings refer to the Shire Calendar. Wallpaper pc 4k games only points in which the differences between this Wallpapr our calendar are important to the story at the crucial period, the end of 3018 and the beginning of 3019 (S. 1418, 1419), are these: October 1418 has only 30 days, January 1 is the second day of 1419, and February has 30 days; so that March 25, the date of the downfall of the Barad-duˆr, would correspond to our March 27, if our years began at the same seasonal point. The date was, however, March 25 in both Kings and Stewards Reckoning. 1 Recording births, marriages, and deaths in the Took families, as well as matters, such as land-sales, and various Shire events. 2 I have gajes in Bilbos song (pp. 15860) used Saturday and Sunday instead of Thursday and Friday. 1112 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS The New Reckoning was begun in the restored Kingdom in T. 3019. It origins kingdom rush a return to Kings Reckoning adapted to fit a spring-beginning 1 as in the Eldarin loa. In the New Reckoning the year began on March 25 old style, in commemoration of the fall article source Sauron and the deeds of the Ring-bearers. The months retained their former names, beginning now with Vı´resse¨ (April), but referred to periods beginning generally five days earlier than previously. All the months had 30 days. There were 3 Enderi or Middle-days (of which the second was called Loe¨nde¨), between Yavannie¨ (September) and Narquelie¨ (October), that corresponded with September 23, 24, 25 old style. But in honour of Frodo Yavannie¨ 30, which corresponded with former September 22, his birthday, was made a festival, and the leap-year was provided for by doubling this feast, called Cormare¨ or Ringday. The Fourth Age was held to have begun pcc the departure of Master Elrond, which took place in September 3021; but for purposes of record in the Kingdom Fourth Age 1 was the year that began according to the New Reckoning in March 25, 3021, old style. This reckoning was in the course of the reign of King Elessar adopted in all his lands except the Shire, where the old calendar was retained and Shire Reckoning was continued. Fourth Age 1 was thus called 1422; and in so far as the Hobbits took any account of the change of Age, they maintained that it began with 2 Yule 1422, and not in the previous March. There is no record of the Shire-folk commemorating either March 25 or September 22; but in the Westfarthing, especially in the gaems round Hobbiton Hill, there grew up a custom of making holiday and dancing in the Party Field, when weather permitted, on April 6. Some said that it was old Sam Gardners birthday, some that it was the day on which the Golden Tree first flowered in 1420, and some that it was the Elves New Year. In the Buckland the Horn of the Mark was blown at sundown every November 2 and bonfires and feastings followed. 2 1 Though actually the yestare¨ of New Reckoning occurred earlier than in the Calendar of Imladris, in which it corresponded more or less with Shire April 6. 2 Anniversary of its first blowing in the Shire in 3019.

And now he is withdrawn into a little land, within bounds that he has set, though none can see them, waiting perhaps for a change of days, and he will not step beyond them. But within those bounds nothing seems to dismay him, said Erestor. Would he not take the Ring and keep it there, for ever harmless. No, said Gandalf, not willingly. He might do so, if all the free folk of link world begged him, but he would not understand the need. And if he Armada 2526 given the Ring, he would soon forget it, or most likely throw it away. Such things have no hold on his mind. He would be a most unsafe guardian; and that alone is answer enough. But in any case, said Glorfindel, to send the Ring to him would only postpone the day of evil. He is read article away. We could not now take it back to him, unguessed, unmarked by any spy. And even if we 266 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS could, soon or late the Lord of the Rings would learn of its hiding place and would bend all his power towards it. Could that power be defied by Bombadil alone. I think not. I think that in the end, if magnificent valorant mobile talented else is conquered, Bombadil will fall, Last as he was First; and then Night will come. I know little of Iarwain save the name, said Galdor; but Glorfindel, I think, is right. Power to defy our Enemy is not in him, unless such power is in the earth itself. And yet we see that Sauron can torture and destroy the Armada 2526 hills. What power still remains lies with us, here in Imladris, or with Cı´rdan at the Havens, or in Lo´rien. But have they the strength, have we here the strength to withstand the Enemy, the coming of Sauron at the last, when all else is overthrown. I have not the strength, said Elrond; neither have they. Then if the Ring cannot be kept from him for ever by strength, said Glorfindel, two things only remain for us to attempt: Armada 2526 send it over the Sea, or to destroy it. But Gandalf has revealed to us that we cannot destroy it by any craft that we just click for source possess, said Elrond. And they who dwell beyond the Sea would not receive it: for good or ill it belongs to Middle-earth; it is for us who still dwell here to deal with it. Then, said Glorfindel, let us cast it into the deeps, and so make the lies of Saruman come true. For it is clear now that even at the Council his feet were already on a crooked path. He knew that the Ring was not lost for ever, but wished us to think so; for he began to lust for it for himself. Yet oft in lies truth is hidden: in the Sea it would be safe. Not safe for ever, said Gandalf. There are many things in the deep waters; and seas and lands may change. And it is not our part here to take thought only for a season, or for a few lives of Men, or for a passing age of the world. We should seek a final end of this Armada 2526, even if we do not hope to make one. And that we shall not find on the roads to the Sea, said Galdor. If the return to Iarwain be thought too dangerous, then flight to the Sea is now fraught with gravest peril. My heart tells me that Sauron click expect us to take the western way, when he learns what has befallen. He soon will. The Nine have been unhorsed indeed, but that is but a respite, ere they find new steeds and swifter. Only the waning might of Gondor stands now between him and a march in power along the coasts into the North; and if he Armada 2526, assailing the White Towers and the Havens, hereafter the Elves may have no escape from the lengthening shadows of Middle-earth. Long yet will that march be delayed, said Boromir. Gondor wanes, you say. But Gondor stands, and even the end of its strength is still very strong. T HE C OUNC IL O F ELROND 267 And yet its vigilance can no longer keep back the Nine, said Galdor.
