The Black Gates of Mordor

Black Gates- RED SKY IN MORNING
Black Gates Under a Grey Dawn
The Black Gates From Orthanc
The Black Gates Under A Mist of Dread
Built by Sauron, the Dark Lord of Mordor, to prevent invasion at the gap between the Ered Lithui and the Ephel Dúath. The Towers of the Teeth, Carchost and Narchost, were however built by the Men of Gondor as a guard after Sauron's first defeat. The reconstruction of Minas Ithil, Tower of the Rising Moon, as well as the construction of Cirith Ungol were also done for the same purpose.
During the aftermath of the Kin-strife in Gondor the watchfulness of the guards in these strongholds relaxed. Thus the Ringwraiths and Orcs re-entered Mordor, eventually overrunning the garrisons and inhabiting them for themselves. It was at this time that the tower of Minas Ithil was taken by the Nazgûl, having its name changed to Minas Morgul, Tower of Sorcery.
It was only fitting that Hobbit Bagration built the Black Gates of Mordor in Middle Earth. It has the all the elements of gloom and doom..and pure evil!
The Black Gates of Mordor is located in the main sim of Middle Earth on the RP level....

Mirror of Galadriel

"Galadriel Stands By Her Mirror"


"The Guardians of the Glade"



"The Mirror of Galadriel"





When the Fellowship seek refuge in Lorien, Galadriel allows Frodo and Sam to use the Mirror - a pedestal upon which a silver basin of water rests, a divination device used by the Wise of Lothlorien. Many things are revealed in the mirror - the past, the present and things that may yet come to be. But that which is seen, even the Wise cannnot always tell.

Hobbit Bagration, owner and creator of the Middle Earth Realms in SL has replicated this mystical place. It is absolutely spectacular!
The Mirror of Galadriel can be found just north of the Gondor Throne Room in the main sim Middle Earth....
