The Darkside of the Ring

Quickbeam aka Bregalad- Coolest Character in Lord of the Rings... followed by Tom Bombadil.

I think they they both deserve their own movies... I think that they could be combined into a movie.

It was obvious that Quickbeam possessed the powers to grow lots of plants, and sell them on the DL.

Imagine the cron he must have had... Also there is an undeniable link between Tom and the Ents.

As you may or may not know when Bilbo was in Withywindle where Tom Bombadil he was attacked by

trees. It is very possible and likely that these were the remains of the Entwives. Withywindle is part of

Old Forest, a tributary of the Brandywine river, on eastern edge of the shire. Fangorn Forest (Treebeard's

other name is Fangorn. Is very far SE from this point. The Ents searched for their wives but is it possible

that this small old forest was overlooked? It was a magical and dangerous forest, so not many entered it.

Except for Tom Bombadil because he was most likely hiding out in there,so he could deal with Quickbeam

and his supplies. They could easily transport back anad forth from The Brandywine, to the Ocean, and up

The Angren via the Fords of Isen right up to Fangorn. Quickbeam could easily slip out into the mountains

and send his secret forest growth down to Tom. Quickbeam and Tom definately had an import/export

business going on. I think that the Ent wives were trapped in The Old Forest by some kind of spells.

Where do you think all the shire's pipe weed came from? They were bordering Old Forest and im sure

that Tom would slip them some goods so that they would continue to have the blind eye towards their

operation. You can notice when looking at a map that there is a very convient river to each major kingdom

of middle earth, its a perfect business... this can all be backed up in the Trilogy books and from any tales

of Tom. Here is a list of drugs they probably sold along with other things Quickbeam would think up:

Aeglos, Alfirin, Athelas, Culumalda, Elanor, Lairelosse, Laurinque, Lebethron, Lissuin, Mallorn, Mallos,

Nessamelda, Niphredil, Oiolaire, Seregon, Simbelmyne, Taniquelasse, Uilous, Vardarianna, Yavannamire,

and of course pipe-weed, but i think that all of the above were varieties of pipe-weed.
