MEE-S2E1: Eriador/Nightmares of Angmar (part 1)

Image
Now TA2964 , 12 years had passed since the group last gathered in Bree. With the rebuilding of Dale, Bard was crowned King. Rohan saw a new King coronated with the death of Fengel, replaced by his son King Thengel. That same year, the Stewardship of Gondor passed from Turgon to his son Ecthelion II. Mount Doom erupted causing the people of Ithilien to flee west across the Anduin. And the shadow of Dol Guldur crept across the lands. And fear began to once again creep into the hearts of man.

Eventually the ring broke apart in sparks and burst of radiation causing all to cover their eyes. When they looked again, the specter was gone.
