What Happened to Radagast???

Curubethion · 10-13-2005, 11:56 PM

I'm just curious, does anyone have any theories on Radagast's fate? It seems like he kind of vanishes after that little incident with Saruman in FOTR. What happened to him??

Maybe he stayed in Middle-earth. That's my theory until someone trounces it with a HoME or Letters quote.

yes, he most likely did. liked all the animals and such things.

then he would have had to have chosen mortality or something then.

He does pop up in Assasin's Shadow, though...(oops, did I just shamelessly plug my own RPG?

)
I'm wondering...did he just like wander around Middle Earth?

I just got an idea-what if he turned into Ralph Nader???

I don't think it's possible... he wasn't a mere elf like Arwen (although, Arwen was descendent of Melian) so I don't think he could have chosen mortality even if he wanted to, and I don't see why would the Valar care... maybe he was even punished by not having the option of returning to Valinor.

Would that necessarily be considered a punishment for him though? I mean, by all accounts, he would have been more than happy to stay with his furry friends.

Radghast is a curious character...I don't think you can assume anything, but, I believe that he stayed in Arda after WR and left it when Iluvatar didn't need him anymore.
