No.

Anybody??

Beorn?

No. It was a Man who said it.

was it Bard?

No

Who was it, then?

That's what you are supposed to figure out.

the master of laketown?

No.

Hint: he wasn't given a particular name.

Bard's messenger to Thorin, regarding the hoard of Smaug.

There it is!

*smacks head*
I really should've known that...

Cheers. How about:

That could be anyone.

Bilbo to the Dwarves?

I knew that (starting) rereading the hobbit would bring some good... Thorin when Bilbo insists on knowing more about the whole thing

Ok, an easy one to get this thread started again...

"You've et a village"

William.

yup

Next quote:

Balin to the other 13.

That's it. Your turn.

"I have no wish to waste time"

Said by one of Thranduil's elves putting barrels in the river
who wanted to get back to the party.

Yes.

Next:

Is it Smaug when he's planning on attacking the town?

Nope. At least that's not the individual I'm thinking of. Although it does sound like something that droll worm would say.

One of the spiders who wants to eat Bombur.

Yes! Your turn.

"Don't, be precise, and don't worry!"

Gandalf to Bilbo?

Nope.

Ah-ha! One of the Dwarves (Balin, I believe) to Bilbo, as he caught up to them at the Green Dragon in Bywater!

I would quote, but my memory is a bit fuzzy....

Yes! Although it's actually Dwalin, but you guessed close enough.

And nearly I forget about it, as well (not that this thread moves terribly quickly anyway). Have a short one:

Who are we speaking of, and are they really?

'Tis the people of Dale speaking of Bard, and no he is not really 'lost,' or dead.

I'll just continue, then.

Bilbo?

(before he gets the Precious by cheating?) :mad:
