Firefoot 04-03-2004 06:40 AM

Freca, Wulf's father.

It was green with a white horse.

You posted on the same minute!
 
But Thorongil got there first...

Firefoot, Freca was never king.

Thorongil 04-03-2004 01:07 PM

Who was king for only 9 years?

Arestevana 04-03-2004 02:58 PM

That would be Walda, I believe.

Thorongil 04-04-2004 05:10 AM

Yup yup yup yup yup yup yup.

Arestevana 04-04-2004 05:26 AM

An easy one this time...

Which King of the Mark was called Ednew in the lore of Rohan, and why?

Firefoot 04-04-2004 03:47 PM

Théoden, because
Quote:

for he fell into a decline under the spells of Saruman, but was healed by Gandalf, and in the last year of his life arose and led his men to victory at the Hornburg, and soon after to the Fields of Pelennor, the greatest battle of the Age.

Arestevana 04-04-2004 05:21 PM

That's the one!

Firefoot 04-04-2004 08:02 PM

Thanks!

'Yes,' said Legolas, 'there are one hundred and five. Yellow is their hair, and bright are their spears. their leader is very tall.'
And

'There are three empty saddles, but I see no hobbits,' said Legolas.

Arestevana 04-07-2004 02:49 PM

One hundred and twenty. The same reasoning given by Nerindel, but added:
