Like everyone at some point or another, I've often wondered "what happened on my birthday in The Lord of the Rings?" This, naturally, expanded into the idea that I should provide a simple way for everyone to find this information. Currently, I only have data from 9/20 to 3/2 loaded, but hopefully I'll get to the rest eventually. If you notice any errors, let me know!
Frodo and Co. arrive at Weathertop, and they are attacked by 5 Black Riders
Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Aragorn, and Bill the Pony arrive at Weathertop, where they find a stone marked G3, which Aragorn interprets as Gandalf being there on 10/03. From Weathertop they spot 5 Black Riders. They stay the night in a dell near Weathertop, and Aragorn tells the story of Luthien Tinuviel. In the night they are attacked by 5 Black Riders, and Frodo puts on the Ring. He attacks, stabbing one of them, but is stabbed himself in the shoulder. The Riders leave, believing the wound would overcome Frodo. Strider leaves to find herbs to heal Frodo.
