                                                      Q: How Far Can Elves See?

                                                      ANSWER: I received the following question in May of 2025:

                                                      Just how far can Elves see and in what detail? In “The Two Towers” right after restoring Theoden, they are looking eastward from outside Meduseld at Edoras. In referring to Legolas it says “It seemed to Legolas, as he strained his farseeing eyes, that he caught a glint of white: far away perchance the sun […]

                                                      On a world long thought to have no moon, its sudden appearance inspires wonder and terror. Hasty research links the full moon and catastrophe, revealing the existence of the so-called ‘Harbingers of Doom’, creatures from the moon that harvest souls. Can everyone survive or will they become part of the dark harvest?

In the foreground, a redheaded witch and a dark haired wizard fight back to back, holding some rather large pistols. The witch is in a black dress and the wizard is in a black robe with golden decorations. Both looked a bit purple, due to the lighting. The witch's hair blows on the wind and she wears a necklace of bone beads. Behind them, there's dust, mist and fog lit by twilight as a moon rises, framing their heads. Objects that look like shooting stars fall from the moon and there's a few visible impacts. (Right) A white moon, on a background of the stars of space, with the following quote over the top of it: “Idiot! You’ve likely killed us both, leaving us stuck out in the open like this.” “We’ve got incoming. I know you’re angry and I suppose you’ve got every right to be, but we need to defend ourselves.” “ ‘The enemy of my enemy is my friend’, for now, and then we decide what to do about the conflict between us.” (Bottom) https://books2read.com/TymeDarkMoon
