Ages past
"They had begun to forget: forget their own beginnings and legends, forget what little they had known about the greatness of the world. It was not yet gone, but it was getting buried: the memory of the high and the perilous. But yu cannot teach that sort of thing to a whole people quickly. There wa not time. And anyway you must begin at some point, with some one person." -- Gandalf, Unfinished Tales, p. 345
