Episode 01 – The Beginning (-Remastered 2024-)

The story

It is with great pleasure that we present the remastered version of the episode Alenwen S01E01 The Beginning. This remastered version now contains more scenes and additional voice material, giving the episode a new depth. We decided to add a new storyline at the beginning of the episode to make the plot even more exciting and entertaining.

Why a remaster?

The original footage of the episode was of poor quality due to its age and the way it was recorded. In order to preserve the story in the best possible form, we decided to technically enhance the episode. Despite the improvements, however, there were some unavoidable losses and compromises. Unfortunately, due to the condition of the source material, it was not possible to eliminate all technical flaws.

What has changed?

More scenes and voice material: The remaster version has allowed us to include additional content that adds new facets to the episode. These elements were not included in the original version and now contribute to an even more intense viewing experience. In addition, two episodes have been merged into one, making the episode longer and more coherent.
New storyline: The introduction of a new storyline at the beginning of the episode provides fresh impetus and expands the plot in an exciting way. This allows viewers to experience the familiar characters in a new context.

Challenges with the remaster version

Despite all our efforts, we had to realize that the possibilities for improving the old material were limited. The original recordings were in poor condition, and even modern technology has its limits here. Unfortunately, we were therefore unable to correct all the quality defects. In the future, AI technology may offer us the opportunity to further optimize such old recordings. But at the moment, we are still a few years away from such progress.

Conclusion

We hope you enjoy this revised episode despite the remaining limitations. It was important to us to get as much out of the existing material as possible to give you the best possible viewing experience. We look forward to your feedback on the remastered version and to continuing to accompany you on our adventures.

The following is a summary presented by AI – Mila.

In an exciting episode of the “Alenwen” series, the charming Elf takes us on a musical journey through the breathtaking places of Middle-earth. With her cheerful and naive personality, Alenwen sees the good in everything and spreads joy wherever she goes. Her dedication to singing is admirable, but sometimes her enthusiasm gets on the nerves of others.

Alenwen, a young Elf, dreams of becoming a famous singer and embarks on a journey to the Shire to perfect her singing.

Over the next few years, she not only hones her singing skills, but also her dancing. Although she is happy in the Shire, she feels the call for new adventures and decides to continue her journey.

In this episode of the series Alenwen, which is based on the online game “The Lord of the Rings”, we see how the Elf Alenwen meets the Beorningen Skaldiv for the first time. The two couldn’t be more different: Alenwen is a cheerful and musical Elf who loves the beauty of nature, while Skaldiv is a rough and pragmatic Beorningen woman.

The encounter between the two does not start out very friendly: Skaldiv is annoyed by the Elf’s whining as she wanders around her homeland and asks her to leave.

However, Alenwen does not know where to go. Skaldiv’s dog Erwin, who is a little soul in the body of a “Cane Corso” and has a better sense of the Elf’s feelings, whines and tells his mistress that she should help the Elf. Reluctantly, Skaldiv invites Alenwen to his house and offers her dinner.
