Lord of the Rings Online: the Echad Candelleth outpost
Explorers of Middle Earth may have encountered Echad Candelleth in their travels. Although not in the books, Turbine certainly did a good job weaving the Elven outpost into the lore of Tolkien in Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar. Read the story of Echad Candelleth in the full article.
If you’ve read the “Lord of the Rings” books or watched the movies, you might remember the part where Strider (better known as Aragorn) took Frodo Baggins and the other hobbits to Rivendell, home of Elrond Half-Elven.
This was where the Fellowship of the Ring was established. In Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar, Turbine Inc. expands the lore of Tolkien by introducing the Elven outpost Echad Candelleth in the game.
The outpost can be located in Tal Bruinen. As the story goes, Elrond sent out scouts and rangers in the surrounding lands to search for enemies that might do harm to the fellowship. One of these scouts established Echad Candelleth.
The outpost was built by an Elf-woman named Candelleth, and has recently given refuge to hunters who fled from the woods of Tal Bruinen, where a strange creature has been seen wandering.
