Where Would You Put Down Roots in Middle-earth?
Six invitations await you on an unfinished map. Along the way, you will share work, receive hospitality, and make choices about the future: which place in Middle-earth might become your idea of home?
PICTURE THE SCENE
A mapmaker hands you six invitations and a blank page. Each place offers a roof in exchange for a few days of shared work. You are not choosing somewhere for a holiday. You are discovering the rhythm you would want to live by when the journey stops being a break from life and becomes life itself.
Tap to make each choice. Your result is free.
An original, unofficial fan-made experience. Its situations, portraits, and affinities are editorial inventions for exploring your choices, not scientific assessments or new canonical information. The places are canonical; their connections with needs, rhythms, and desires form an original symbolic map, not exhaustive descriptions of their peoples.
