Who was the last King of Gondor before the interregnum?

Can't be as simple as Eärnur, can it?

Ondoher?

Actually you're both right, there were two interregnums, and I didn't specify which one I was talking about...
Any of you can go!

What was the western boundry of The Mark of Rohan?

Hint: Not the Isen

At what time? Cirion's gift to the Rohirrim was indeed bounded by the Isen on the west.

The North-South Road?

True, the Isen was part of the western border, but most of it was actually a northern border. The border that I'm talking about is, more specifically, a south-western border. And I don't mean the White Mountains either.

I would suppose you mean by south-west border the river Adorn.

Very good, Mr. Of Rivendell!

Thank you Lindolirian.

What hill did the Rohirrim call "the Holy Mountain"?

Okay, okay, it was my first question ever posted on this forum. I hope it wasn't to easy for you Lindolirian. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] But of course, you are perfectly correct. Please proceed.

What marriage was the spark that started the Kin-strife?

The marriage between King Valacar and Vidumavi, the daughter of Vidugavia (a Northman). Valacar's son Eldacar was only of half-Gondorian descent, a fact that Castamir used to reclaim the throne.

King Valacar and Vidumavi?
[EDIT]: Apologies, didn't see EoR post a few minutes before me.

Correct, of Rivendell. Alas, for ye of Angmar, I know the feeling.

How many messengers did Cirion send to the Éothéod and which of them was able to deliver the message to Eorl?

Six, but only Borondir was able to make it.

Correct Lindolirian. Your turn.

When did the news of the northern assualt of the Wainriders reach Ondoher?

12th of Cermie, 1944

Right on.

Thanks Lindolirian.

Who brought the mearas from the West over the Sea? (Name in the speech of the Northmen)

Greetings,
EfR

Béma, who was also called Oromë.

Perfectly correct. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Your go Lindolirian.

In which battle did Ugluk and his company "flee"?

Battle/Ambush of Amon Hen?

<font size=1 color=339966>[ 5:26 PM January 15, 2004: Message edited by: Gil-Galad ]

Hundreds vs. one is hardly a battle. Hint: They never participated in the battle. Just ran right on by.

When the Rohirrim killed the orcs near Fangorn?

Nay, Ugluk and his troop certainly participated in that one.

...Grinzazh(sp) and the hobbits? he was trying to protect them for saruman but grisnazh wanted to eat them and ugluk "fleed" to counter the rohrrim attack

No, it was the whole troop of Isengarders. I put "fleed" in quotations because they really didn't flee, it just seemed like they did.
Think! This is Of Gondorians and Rohirrim.

Could have been the battle of the Fords of Isen, at which Theodred fell?

Yes, you are correct.

Who was the "dark maiden"?

Morwen?
Mor-Dark
Wen-Maiden

So is it Morwen?

Morwen of Lossarnach, who wedded Thengel, and brought Gondorian blood into the "Royal Family"?

You are both correct. I am giving it to Finwe, because he specified which Morwen. There were two, Morwen Fengel's wife and Morwen Tuor's mother.

(Actually, I'm a "she." *waits for horrified gasp* [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img])


All right... hmm...

Which long-fated King of Rohan had a name that rhymed with his ill-fated brother's?
