• The Life and Times of Mag the Cook

  From humble beginnings in the scullery, Mag rose to Head Cook of the Citadel, a position she held for over 30 years, spoiling generations of Citadel guards and trainees with her excellent food and exuberant affection. Following the war Mag “retired” to Emyn Arnen with the Prince of Ithilien's household. However, Mag did not find country life to her liking and soon returned to Minas Tirith to continue doing what she loved best, cooking and spoiling people. These are some of her stories.
