The Lord of the Rings Online official site has been updated with a look at Echad Candelleth, one of the many Tolkien inspired locations created by Turbine for LotRO.
In the months after Strider brought four hobbits to the hidden valley of Rivendell, Elrond Half-elven sent forth many Elf-scouts and Rangers to search the surrounding lands for signs of the Enemy's servants. One of these scouts, an Elf-woman named Candelleth, established a way-station in Tâl Bruinen, the southern reaches of the Trollshaws that follow the course of the river Bruinen.
From this outpost, called Echad Candelleth, many scouting parties resupply and take much-needed rest from their arduous journeys. Echad Candelleth also sometimes hosts parties of hunters from Bree-land and from the villages east of the Misty Mountains. Recently, the outpost has given succour to hunters frightened by a strange creature seen wandering the woods of Tâl Bruinen.
Echad Candelleth is one of many locations created by Turbine to populate a relatively untouched region of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. Lore-savvy adventurers stopping here may discover a familiar, though not entirely welcome presence in Tâl Bruinen.
