Doesn't matter. While that amazon shitshow tells a different story, Gandalf (as Radagast and Saruman) only arrived in the third age, long after the War of the Last Alliance. Gandalf might be infinitely older than Elrond yet wasn't there.
Small nerd gripe. Maia is the singular form of Maiar. "I am a Maia," or "I am one of the Maiar" get you there
Maia who?
Maia he
Maia ha ha
something-something Núma Númenor
God, I love this community.
"Well I read in a book that I was there. I can't actually remember more than a few hundred years back."
Ashildr from Doctor Who was brilliant.
I SEEN IT!!
I'm wondering now, how our little brains would adapt to living like for thousands of years. Would we really start forgetting things that are waaaay back?
This is a really interesting part of the Red Mars Trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson
I've already forgotten most of my childhood and I'm only around 30. So I'd assume, yes.
That’s… that’s not normal.
Thats usually trauma suppressing memories, sorry mate,
It wasnt specified what was meant by childhood. The further back you go the less you remember. I remember a lot more about 6-10 grade than 1-6 grade.
Nah, it's just shitty memory. I have had quite the happy childhood, actually.
I don't find myself reminiscing a lot and in the rare cases I do, there are quite some gaps. Even in more recent times. If I really try to dig, maybe it comes back, but I assume it's "use it or lose it".
You would forget most everything. Even big events would become fuzzy. Do you remember what you had for lunch on this date when you were 5?
It's Friday. Rectangle pizza
A breadtangle of pizza
Is that just regular pizza with rectangles on it?
"The Man from Earth"
Perfect casting, too
I mean, sure he was alive. But he wasn't physically there.
Is Middle-earth juxtaposed between Top-earth and Bottom-earth or Right-earth and Left-earth?
Hamburger earth or hotdog earth?
Or? And!
Inner earth and outer earth.
Front earth and back earth
No
Yes. It's the inner goo of the earth cube.
Maiar is the plural
