Welcome to Episode 13 of DO NOT BE HASTY - I'm calling this one "Sam at the Green Dragon"!"And I've heard tell that Elves are moving west. They do say they are going to the harbours, out away beyond the White Towers.'Sam waved his arm vaguely; neither he nor any of them knew how far it was to the Sea, past the old towers beyond the western borders of the Shire. But it was an old tradition that away over there stood the Grey Havens, from which at times elven-ships set sail, never to return."In this episode of DO NOT BE HASTY, we continue through The Shadow of the Past, as we listen in on Sam’s speculations at the Green Dragon concerning Elves and Tree-men!This section begins with the words: “Little of all this, of course, reached the ears of ordinary hobbits.”And ends with: “...and they stayed up far into the night.”Join us!EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Melkor27- KG- SaberSystems- Jeremy DWATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/5YybnnhfQRQWATCH AD-FREE » https://www.patreon.com/posts/106218699/LISTEN AD-FREE » https://www.patreon.com/posts/106221711/FOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:- take 10% OFF Tolkien Road merch at True Myths Press » https://truemythspress.com/discount/TENOFF (enter code TENOFF at checkout)- listen to TOLKIEN'S WORKS for FREE » https://www.audibletrial.com/everon- buy Tolkien's Requiem » https://tolkiensrequiem.com/ - buy Tolkien's Overture » https://tolkiensoverture.com/SPECIAL THANKS TO THE FOLLOWING PATRONS:- John R- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- Melkor27- KG- SaberSystems- Jeremy D- Emilio P- Jonathan D- Richard K- Paul D- Julia- Werty- Chris B- Tuor91- Carolyn S- Emiel K- Brian O (the 2nd)- Jonathan R- Matthew W- Daniel D- Harrison C- Seb M- Willbo Baggins- Ms. Anonymous- Andrew T- Redhawk- Shannon S- Brian O (the 1st)- Zeke F- James L- Chris L- Asya V- Ish of the Hammer- Teresa C- David of Pints with Jack- Eric BAS WELL AS THOSE CELEBRATING THEIR PATRON ANNIVERSARY IN JUNE OF 2024- Richard BW- Teresa C- James LThank you so much for sticking with us over the years!!! 🙌 Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tolkien-road--5222755/support.
