Where did the pearls come from that Thingol used to reward the dwarves who helped build Menegroth?

The Bay of Balar.

luthien-elvenprincess 09-01-2004 07:42 PM

What was close to giving Morgoth the victory in the War of Wrath?

Gil-Galad 09-03-2004 04:48 PM

When he destroyed all of the elf kingdoms...

NightKnight 09-04-2004 05:45 AM

Nope.

luthien-elvenprincess 09-04-2004 06:02 AM

When he released the winged dragons from Angband?

NightKnight 09-05-2004 03:36 AM

Exactly! But then came Eärendil and the eagles and turned the tide. :p Please continue. :)

luthien-elvenprincess 09-05-2004 03:26 PM

NightKnight 09-07-2004 08:39 AM

NightKnight 09-13-2004 05:46 AM

Gil-Galad 09-13-2004 07:18 AM

Dior i beleive, in the SoF attack on Doriath...

NightKnight 09-13-2004 11:50 AM

Yup.

Gil-Galad 09-13-2004 04:26 PM

bah humbug... wait i was right!

name a Noldor that lived with the Sindar(more teleri) but he didn't grow apart from them...really easy i know

NightKnight 09-15-2004 05:02 AM

Gil-Galad?

Gil-Galad 09-15-2004 07:19 AM

yes NightKnight? can i help you? or yeah the question...your right of course...

NightKnight 09-15-2004 10:06 AM

Heh. :D My first answer was Galadriel, but I changed. :p

Who, except Beren, was held captive by Tevildo?

Nanedhel 09-19-2004 09:26 PM

Tinuviel was held captive by Tevildo, prince of cats, when she went to rescue Beren.

Lindolirian 09-20-2004 07:46 AM

Also Gimli who was an elderly looking Gnome...;)

NightKnight 09-20-2004 09:42 AM

Nanedhel, she wasn't really his prisoner. Gimli, however, was. So that means it's Lindo's turn. But since he's not on much, you can go Nanedhel.

Nanedhel 09-20-2004 04:37 PM

OK, I'll have a go.

What was the first light in Valinor after the death of the two trees?

Gil-Galad 09-21-2004 07:21 AM

The Stars i beleive, but there were also the Silmarils, which were made during the Two Trees so i'll say STars

NightKnight 09-21-2004 12:33 PM

The sparks of Oromë's horse Nahar.

Nanedhel 09-21-2004 04:16 PM

NightKnight has it.

Quote:

The the pursuit was begun; and the earth shook beheath the horses of the host of Oromé, and the fire that was stricken from the hooves of Nahar was the first light that returned to Valinor.

NightKnight 09-22-2004 09:34 AM

Why did Turgon have a scarlet heart on his banner?

Lindolirian 09-22-2004 03:39 PM

You were quite right to go on without me there. I had an extra minute or two in study hall and came here to see how things were doing. I just couldn't resist answering the question, but I should have, since today was the first time I've thought of it since then. Ah... silly me. And now I must resist answering this one for the same reason. Blast! :rolleyes:
