ummmmmmm the forest of Brethil?

ummmmm no

ok, I'll give you a hint: forget the Sil ;)

ummmm Forget the Sil? Wouldn't that river only be named that in the Sil? All other maps are different. The river Norog flows from Irvin to the mouth of Sirion.

not quite...the UT name it Narog as well ;)

uuuum Fangorn then?

Fangorn...was not even in Beleriand

*sigh* Ok I give up on this one. :p

ok, I know it's a hard one

The woods of Nuath are mentioned during Tuor's journey together with Voronwe to Gondolin

How many tributaries did the river Gelion have ?

10? I counted Tol Galen, and where it splits into little Gellon, greater Gellon and lake Helevorn

nope...

some hints:
1. Tol Galen is an island, not a river
2. Gelion is formed after Little Gelion and Greater Gelion meet

So 6 then?

yes, this is where the name of Ossiriand comes from, The Land of the Seven Rivers (Gelion + 6)

What kind of Elf was Voronwe's mother?

his mother was of the Grey-Elves in Falas and akin of Cirdan

Correct!!!

Whom did Tuor cut the legs during the Fall of Gondolin ?

Hmm... A dragon?

nope

Maeglin then... i know he threw him off the side of the walls

no, he actually cut this guys feet with his axe...

This question seems rather complex, or else I need to get the HOME. In the fall of Gondolin from the Book of Lost Tales 2: The Fall of Gondolin. It says "Tour. Ecthelion was wounded in the arm, and dropped his shield, and he must lean on Tuor, who could not leave him, even as the trampling feet of the dragon of fire passed overhead, and it seemed as if they would be crushed. Tuor hewed at the foot of the monster, and flame sprouted forth, and it screamed and lashed with
its tail, slaying many, Orcs and Gnomes both.” And also “There Tuor slew the Orc captains Othrod, Balcmeg, and Lug” But I see no other refences to any feet being cut by Tour. So I’m really at a loss on this one. :confused:

Interestingly it seems it is not mentioned here that Lug is the one whose legs were cut from under his knees by Tuor with his axe...I know strange question

Anyway, since you did mention his name, and the question was indeed maybe a bit too much, please post the next question Beleg. :)

That's odd, what book did you get it from?

Q: How after death do men come the destination of which only Eru Ilúvatar knows?

I hope this is clear enough.

From another version of the Fall of Gondolin:

Since I believe this version was not as old as the one you are talking about I take this information as more likely since Tolkien didn't change for nothing.

As for your question:

When Men die they goe to the Halls of Mandos where Nienna gathers them in her hall Fui, from there they are send aboard Mournië after their final judgment and they sail now south to the destination of which only Eru Ilúvatar knows.

Quote:

"Then when she is laden, of her own accord she spreads her sable sail and before a slow wind coasts down those shores. Then do all aboard as they come south cast looks of utter longing and regret to that low place amid the hills where Valinor may just be glimpsed upon the far off plain" ~ from the Earliest Tales

I'd sure like to get that book. Your go.

Near which ford did Beren recover the Nauglamir from the Dwarves ?

At Sarn Athrad The ford of Gelion.

Sorry I'm a little slow, I'm wacthing hockey highlights.

you're correct...any hockey fights going on? :D

Hey I'm still around, and there are no fights that I know of.

My Q is not that hard (I don't think anyway) but anyway... Exactly how many people remained of the Gondothlim after its fall?

three hundred and twenty men and boys, and two hundred and sixty women and children totalising 580

Umm...Right, your go then...



*bump* *bump*

At what feasts did the Elves remain silent until sunrise?

sorry, I meant what feast

The only feast I remember is Mereth Aderthad. . .but I don't remember anything about being silent.

nope

The Tarnin Austa, or Gates of Summer I believe...?

lost for names right now... its the festival they had at Gondolin before it was attacked by Morgoth...bah....

yes, Gates of Summer it is

Well, I guess after a month I should be posting a new and easy one:

Who was the Nauglamir made for?

I believe it was made for Thingol.
