| SPECIAL GUEST: The Scrolls of Middle-earth : VI. Planning Additional Scrolls
 Reading the Epic Tales in Original Form
 
 VI. Planning Additional Scrolls.Wither next after Beren and Luthien?  I imagine having an extensive collection of scrolls including stories from the creation of Arda, the migration of the Elves, Numenor, Gil-galad and the Last Alliance of Men and Elves, and others.  The critical element is the form of the stories from the available published works and papers of Professor Tolkien.  I could even see placing The Hobbit and the three volumes of the Lord of the Rings in scroll form with the myriad of pictures available.  But remember, the LOTR is over one million words in length.  Scrollifying that epic will be a multi-year project! I will proceed with the First Age stories and then work forward in time.  The list for scrolls looks
like the following:
 
	Turin Turambar
	Earendil and Elwing
	The Making of Valinor
	The Theft of the Silmarils and the Doom of Mandos
	The Nauglamir
	Fall of Numenor and the Founding of Gondor
	Smith of Wootten Major
	The Song of Tom Bombadil
