For the later story i again would chose a human as main POV character... this time i'd like to recycle Tal-Elmar who will be brought to Numenor (maybe by the future witch-king) so we will experience the üolitical,intrigue on Numenor through the eyes of a lesser man.He may later actually come back to Middle-earth and may accompany the Blue Wizards...
 
Do we need to keep this in two threads or could we combine them? Only thinking, I’ve pitched some witch king and Two Blue in other thread? Love some of the concepts here though
 
I fear it would get too much very soon... so,i propose to split the 2nd age into logical divisions storywise... like an anthology .
