About this episode
Aldarion prepares to go from this misenchanted isle of daydreams filled with insolent women; Alan puts 10 pence in the Sara to get her take on said ‘insolent women’. Join The Man of the West and The Shieldmaiden of Rohan as we near the end of Aldarion and Erendis from Unfinished Tales . Aldarion lays out his demands to the King; to soften the blow (and quiet the rumors), Meneldur sends the Sceptre along, “with love, from me to you”; and a letter from Erendis leads Aldarion to a rant that proves she’s damned if she does, damned if she doesn’t. We admire Meneldur’s mic drop moment, decide Aldarion would claim to be a “high-value male” on today’s social media, and speculate about the population density of Númenórean ships. Also, Alan regrets not pronouncing the H. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
