Quote:

And what shall that design be?
said Elendil (to Amandil, before Amandil left to search the Valar).

Guinevere 12-09-2003 02:14 PM

Exactly! Your turn, Celegorm [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] (and welcome to the thread! )

Celegorm 12-10-2003 06:43 AM

Thank's for your welcome.

Here is my quote (easy I think):
Quote:

I did not desire such lordship.

Mariska Greenleaf 12-10-2003 06:59 AM

That was Aule to Iluvatar.

Celegorm 12-11-2003 02:40 PM

Of cause, Mariska, go on.

Mariska Greenleaf 12-12-2003 03:41 AM

thanks!

But a worse thing is yet to come forth.

Lord of Angmar 12-12-2003 09:00 AM

A clue, perhaps?

Mariska Greenleaf 12-12-2003 10:06 AM

It's a quote in a quote... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Lord of Angmar 12-12-2003 10:14 AM

This is only a guess, since my copy of the Silm is temporarily unavailable, but could it be Manwe quoting some foreshadowing by Iluvatar after taking counsel in his mind with Eru?

Mariska Greenleaf 12-12-2003 10:20 AM

I'm sorry, but that's not it...

gilraën 12-14-2003 09:42 AM

Gelmir and Arminas say it to Thingol ?

Beren87 12-15-2003 09:40 PM

They were quoting Ulmo, too.

Mariska Greenleaf 12-16-2003 05:41 AM

You're both right of course.
Gilraen can go I suppose.. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

gilraën 12-19-2003 04:30 PM

Okay [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

I would weep

Celegorm 12-20-2003 05:50 AM

'and I would weep, if I were not so weary.'

Grandma! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
That was Míriel to Finwë.

gilraën 12-20-2003 06:19 AM

Correct [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Celegorm 12-20-2003 11:46 AM

Who said:
Quote:

'for I loved him well'

Guinevere 12-20-2003 03:15 PM

Thingol said this to Beleg about Túrin.

"gladly would I welcome him back; for I loved him well"

Celegorm 12-21-2003 03:36 PM

Yes, your turn, Guinevere.

Guinevere 12-21-2003 04:45 PM

Thank you, Celegorm!

Do I not strike near the truth?

Eöl 12-21-2003 05:11 PM

that would be Queen Melian to Artanis
Quote:

"Artanis, tell me, of what cause were the high people of the Noldor driven forth as exiles from Aman? What evil lies on the sons of Fëanor that they be so haughty and fell? Do I not strike near the truth?"

Guinevere 12-21-2003 08:41 PM

Correct, Eol!
(Except that in my copy of the Silmarillion, Melian does not call Galadriel Artanis...)
Anyhow,it's your turn! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Eöl 12-22-2003 06:22 AM

Maedhros to Fingolfin:

Quote:

'If there lay no grievance between us, lord, still the kingship would rightly come to you, the eldest here of the house of Finwл, and not the least wise.'

Eöl 12-22-2003 12:26 PM

[img]smilies/smile.gif[/img], my previous answer , anyone?

Melian to Galadriel

Quote:

But Melian said: 'Now much you tell me, and yet more I perceive. A darkness you would cast over the long road from Tirion, but I see evil there, which Thingol should learn for his guidance.'

Mariska Greenleaf 12-23-2003 02:47 AM

Very good!

Celegorm 12-23-2003 06:20 AM

Without looking into the book:
Meadhros to Maglor about the Silmaril that are in Eonwe's posession?

Eöl 12-23-2003 07:44 AM

the one and only(maedhros) [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

And Maedhros answered: 'But how shall our voices reach to Ilúvatar beyond the Circles of the World? And by Ilúvatar we swore in our madness, and called the Everlasting Darkness upon us, if we kept not our word.

Celegorm 12-23-2003 01:01 PM

Celegorm 12-24-2003 04:28 AM
