"For I followed a sudden spring of water in the hills, until it joined this treacherous stream. But now I know not whither to turn, for it has gone into darkness."
Tuor to Gelmir and Arminas, in U.T. (A good thing I just recently read those! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] )

gilraën 07-21-2003 01:03 AM

Guinevere, I apologise, I thought noone had replied to this, of course you are correct.

Guinevere 07-21-2003 05:54 AM

Thank you, Gilraën! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Found it, at last [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

'I was going to find a way into Mordor,' he said faintly. `I was going to Gorgoroth. I must find the Mountain of Fire and cast the thing into the gulf of Doom. Gandalf said so. I do not think I shall ever get there.'

Guinevere 07-21-2003 12:15 PM

My goodness, Gilraën, your abilities are really uncanny... [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] I thought you'd at least need an "O" to recognize it!
*bows* Your turn again!

gilraën 07-21-2003 12:43 PM

It was the 'and cast' bit that gave it away, though I had to search several possible places were that was said. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

But I have no time to blow smoke-rings this morning. I am looking for someone to share in an adventure that I am arranging, and its very difficult to find anyone.
Said by Gandalf the Wizard to Bilbo Baggins outside Bag End one morning long ago in the quiet of the world. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

gilraën 07-21-2003 05:48 PM

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

There is one stream there, I know, black and strong which crosses the path. That, you should neither drink of, nor bathe in; for I have heard that it carries enchantment and a great drowsiness and forgetfullness.
By jove, I think i've got it. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

The Saucepan Man 07-30-2003 07:57 AM

Oops, I see that I gave a bonus 'T' there. Well, it was late! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Well done Beren, you got it in three. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I thought that all those 'N's and 'S's would help.

Not a terrible lot of help, really, but there you are.

Orofaniel 08-03-2003 03:26 PM

No.....

How about A's? Are there any of those??

By the way; did you, beren, change your picture???
Nice [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Well, can't say "changed" really. Older members will notice that's the infamous blue-confetti throwing wizard, he's back for a short time, filling in until I can get off my butt and make another Ferris avatar.

Found it, I was reading this passage yesterday so it was fresh in my head [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

"but you will need more than one companion in your dangerous adventure."
Said by Pippin to Frodo.
