The Lord of the Rings Online official site has been updated with a look at Gwindethrond, another of the Tolkien inspired locations created by Turbine for LotRO. Deep within the folded lands along the shores of Nenuial, known to most as Lake Evendim, lies a grotto, its entrance hidden behind a waterfall – but this is no ordinary cave, for it is home to Gwindeth, the Blue Lady of Evendim. Who or what she is remains a mystery, but she has dwelt at Gwindethrond for many an age, and was a friend to the Kings of Arnor, from Elendil to Amlaith of Fornost, the first King of Arthedain. Some believe she is kin to the River-maidens – though her temperament is much stronger than theirs – or perhaps even one of the messengers of the Valar who chose long ago to remain in Middle-earth. At the behest of Amlaith, Gwindeth placed under her protection the last of the Silithair, gems of surpassing beauty and power crafted by the Elves. Aragorn, son of Arathorn, came to Gwindethrond to seek the Silithar, but Gwindeth turned him aside. Aragorn still hopes that the Silithar can be recovered, for its power will be needed to help drive back the Shadow in the East. Read more here.

Haha, I remember my girlfriend's annoyance when she first saw Gwindethrond and I explained that yes, Turbine did add in some stuff to the lore. On a side note, I don't know how long I was gone, but when did 6th graders with 1997 Angelfire's website creator get put in charge of LOTRO's official website?
