Silmarillion Writers' Guild July 2019 Challenge: Solve a Problem
I only sporadically read fic from![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
silwritersguild (or any fic anymore, really), but if people take up some of these prompts it could be a hoot. For example:
Why does a utopian place like Gondolin have a designated place for executions?
What was the ecosystem of Middle-earth like when there was only darkness? [ha, I've picked on this one myself]
Did Húrin's chair have a flush? … or any matters related to excremental necessity.
So about all those "tallest" Elves and Númenóreans: Who was actually the tallest?
If the palantíri were made by Fëanor, why do we not see them being used in all sorts of canon situations when communications were critical?
Anything to do with the logistics around the anatomical and aerodynamic likelihood of a bird big enough to carry two men on its back. (Also what that might say about the bird poop issue around Gondolin.)
(Yes, I meant to post this here and not![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
arcanetrivia, because I have more audience here who would be interested in this kind of thing.)
