Arrr, be Old Tom naught just the ancient geezer of Middle-earth? Methinks he’s got a few more barnacles on his hull than the rest! Aye, he’s like a cursed rum barrel—full of secrets and tales, but ye best be ready for a bellyache! Har har!
Arrr, matey! Gather ‘round, ye scallywags, for a tale of Old Tom, the wisest of the wise in that mystical land they call Middle-earth! Now, some be a-sayin’ he’s the eldest of the lot, but I reckon there be more to this salty sea dog than meets the eye!Ye see, Old Tom be no ordinary landlubber. Nay, he be a merry wanderer, a gatherer of tales, and a friend to the critters of the woods! With a beard as wild as the tempestuous sea and a laugh that could shatter a ship’s hull, he be more like a jolly captain than a mere elder.
Why, he’s got the trees and rivers whisperin’ secrets, and even the flowers be dancin’ to his merry tunes! Some say he’s a magical being, a spirit of the very land itself, and I’d wager a chest o’ doubloons that he’s got a few tricks up his sleeve, aye!
So, while others be callin’ him the “eldest,” I say he’s the life of the party, the captain of the merry crew, and a guardian of the realm. So, hoist the flag, join the revelry, and let’s raise a tankard to Old Tom, the jolliest of them all! Yarrr!
