Palantir question?
I'm trying to research something for a project I'm doing, but my copy of the Silmarillion is on loan and I can't find the info anywhere. My question is this: the original seven palantir were brought to Middle Earth from Numenor, where the Elves had brought them (right? or is my memory rusty?) Does anyone know *when* they were brought to Numenor? A year, a date, a currently ruling king, anything would be beyond and above helpful.
*First post. Just wanted to let you all know how much this forum ROCKS. |

If you want to learn more about the palantiri read the unfinished tales. There is a lot about them in it
