Tulkas the Mighty 06-07-2004 11:47 PM

10 days are up! I'll take it...
The River Glanhir was a border between what two countries?

NightKnight 06-08-2004 12:53 AM

Rohan and Gondor.

Tulkas the Mighty 06-08-2004 08:29 PM

Right.

NightKnight 06-09-2004 12:32 AM

In what river was Dor Firn-i-Guinar?

Fingolfin II 06-09-2004 01:01 AM

The River Adurant.

NightKnight 06-09-2004 05:07 AM

Right-o! :p

Fingolfin II 06-22-2004 01:42 AM

Which river flowed along the eastern border of Beleriand?

Bombadil 06-22-2004 07:19 AM

The River gelion?

Fingolfin II 06-23-2004 01:48 AM

Yes.

Bombadil 06-23-2004 07:43 AM

Name the mountains that bordered Ossiriand, and two Dwarven realms within them.

The Perky Ent 06-23-2004 06:27 PM

That would be the Ered Luin, the blue mountains. And the dwarven cities were Nogrod and Belegost. Why does this question seem familiar. What a minute. Now I remember. Bombadil, did you get this question from Dwarf Jeopardy?

Bombadil 06-23-2004 07:11 PM

haha! If I did, I didn't realize it at the time. :o Correct of course Perky!

The Perky Ent 06-23-2004 07:21 PM

:D That's my job! Anyways, new question...new question. Here's one: What is Deer’s Leap called in Elvish, and what is it?

Fingolfin II 06-24-2004 08:34 PM

It is called Cabed-en-Aras, but was changed to Cabed Naermarth ('Leap of Dreadful Doom') after Nienor jumped into it. It is a chasm in the Ravines of the Teiglin River.

The Perky Ent 06-27-2004 09:12 AM

Correct, Correct, and of course, Correct!

Fingolfin II 06-27-2004 06:02 PM

Since I have a mind freeze, where was the last place that Arwen went to before she died?

The Perky Ent 06-27-2004 08:33 PM

Isn't it Cerin Amroth or something like that?

Fingolfin II 06-28-2004 03:12 AM

Sure is.

The Perky Ent 06-28-2004 04:18 PM

Right! What is the name of the mountains east of where the elves awoke (Cunuvien i think it's called. Well, I know what it's called, but I can't spell it :D)

Phervasaion 06-28-2004 04:30 PM

Im not sure, but are they the Orocarni?

The Perky Ent 06-28-2004 04:31 PM

Yes they are!

Phervasaion 06-28-2004 04:37 PM

Great! In that case, i'll continue. What is the place beyond River Gelion, in which beren adn Luthien dwelt?... Quite easy i suppose, but not to those that haven't read the silmarillion!

NightKnight 06-28-2004 04:38 PM

The Dor Firn-I-Guinar (Spelling? Too lazy to look it up. ;)), the Land of the dead that live or something. Or are you looking for Ossiriand?

Phervasaion 06-28-2004 04:43 PM

I am looking for Ossiriand, but for a certain place there.

NightKnight 06-28-2004 04:44 PM

The island Tol Galen in the river Adurant?

Phervasaion 06-28-2004 04:45 PM

Correct!! Please continue NightKnight.

NightKnight 06-28-2004 04:47 PM

Thank you.

In which region of Tol Eressea was Mar Vanwa Tyaliéva?

Nilpaurion Felagund 06-30-2004 11:13 PM

Near Kortirion?

NightKnight 07-08-2004 11:14 AM

It was in a special region. So, you're wrong. :p

Iaurhirwen 07-09-2004 09:50 PM

that region that is called Alalminore or the "Land of Elms", whcih the Gnomes call Gar Lossion, or the "Place of Flowers".

NightKnight 07-14-2004 06:55 AM

Yup. :)

Iaurhirwen 07-14-2004 07:41 PM

Ok, I don't have much time, having an essay due in 2 hours, so this will be an easy one.

What is another name for the Red Mountains?

Nilpaurion Felagund 07-14-2004 09:09 PM

Orocarni?

Iaurhirwen 07-14-2004 09:32 PM

yep! And if your curious (if you're not I'm telling you anyway) I submitted my paper with an hour to spare - - now I just have to read a 20 page essay for a quiz tomorrow morning and write a 7 page essay for tomorrow. Cheers!

Nilpaurion Felagund 07-14-2004 09:38 PM

Better you than me, I always say.

Good luck on your stuff. :)
