Gandalf was a wise and impactful leader in the Lord of the Rings, yet it is not clear what he planned to do after the Fellowship got to Lothlórien. In this video, we will explore what possibilities he considered, if any at all! Thank you all so much for watching, let me know your thoughts on Gandalf’s plan in the comments below! As always, a great thanks to the online artists whose visual works made this video possible! If you are one of the artists, please let me know and I will post your name and a link to your work in this description!
