Lorebook Update: Girdley Island
By Keith Cross on May 06, 2008
The Lord of the Rings Online Lorebook has been updated with an entry on Girdley Island, a former outpost of the Dúnedain, and currently a popular fishing spot for local Hobbits.
In the midst of the Brandywine River, between the North Bridgefields and the Brandy Hills, lies a small but steep island. In the early days of Arnor, the Dúnedain used this island as a beacon-hill, but it was abandoned when the hobbits came to dwell here. Later, a member of the Brandybuck family rowed out to the island and discovered it was a particularly excellent spot for fishing.
Girdley Island, as it has come to be called, has become a popular excursion for Brandybucks on holiday (for they among hobbits are the least afraid of water). They have built two small piers on the island, providing ample room for fishing hobbits, or anyone wishing to take a break from their adventures with LOTRO’s fishing system.
