Blue Mountains? [In reply to] Can't Post


In Reply To
aren't the Brothers "ur" (Bifur, Bofur, Bombur) from somewhere in the "north"... Bofur, especially, channels Alaskan/Yukon gold miner...

I picture them mushing Malamutes across the tundra or something...







I think they are meant to be from the Blue Mountains, West of the Shire. Open invitation to the forum to correct me if I've gotten my geography and Dwarf homes wrong Tongue

Yes, my username is terrible.
