Here's a thread for listing and discussing some of the great unanswered mysteries of Middle-earth. what has Tolkien left unexplained? what loose end are we just dying to learn more about?

Off the top of my head:

1. The Blue Wizards. What ever became of them?

2. Saruman's Ring. what were it's powers? Where was it's power derived from? (My personal opinion is that Saruman crafted the ring himself, but it was bound to the One Ring and Sauron - the tragedy of Saruman being that he became so obsessed with Ring lore that he fell victim to the same fate as the other intended ring victims).

3. The Entwives. Where are they?
