I wonder how we'll implement the eventual encroachment of industry, though, because in Tolkien's works the world is always in a state of decay. For all these threats to have emerged, why did you pick the Fifth Age?

I picked the Fifth because the fourth was canonically pretty peaceful, and I didn't want to go super far into the future for the very reason you brought up- industry. I didn't want to deal with it hahah. However, if you have some ideas regarding developing tech, I'd be interested to hear them. I had some ideas for the Dwarves in that regard, but haven't decided whether to implement them or not.
