'Tis indeed! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Yay! Saucepan Man! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I love witty people on this thread [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

In the realm of Ulmo:

True fluid governs

Edit: Sophia, I think that you were referring to my previous attempt, which I unfortunately had to delete because I realised that it didn't obey the rule of starting with the first letter of the last answer. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] It was a good one, so I shall have to keep it in reserve.

Would that be Guild of Venturers?

Indeed it would, Eruanna. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Would this be the sleep of the innocent?

SHH. NOTE FAST O'SLEEP

That must be Stone of the Hapless.

Yes indeedy. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Does the Dark Lord have a soft centre?

Oh! Sauron's heart of toffee

No, but I think he may have been a bit of a show off!

Star of the House of Feanor, I mean.

Bingo! Your turn, Eruanna. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Asgard music press headlines! Were they Heavy Metal?

Thor saw great band

Maybe people are *otherwise engaged* at the party? I'll just *Bump* this up to see if there are any takers [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I've been pondering it while at the party, Eruanna. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

And now I think I have the answer:

Radagast the Brown

You're obviously a (Saucepan) Man of many talents!

Correct of course. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Why thank you, Eruanna. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

A hitherto unseen Scandinavian connection in the Professor's works is found:

Ah! Fins in Lothlorien

I've been trying to decipher this one....how about a teensy little hint? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Cripes! I'd completely forgotten about this thread. Thanks for digging it up Eruanna. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Your reward is a clue: The answer is also known as Orson the Frog. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

drat drat drat... now you know I'm going to puzzle on this all night!

Sophia

I've puzzled and puzzled over this one.....I'm stumped [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

OK, here's another clue, more straightforward this time.

His death was avenged by another of his kind.

*breathes a sigh of relief

Nain of the Iron Hills

The Son of Gror

Avenged by Dain Ironfoot, son of Nain.

Hip hip hooray! Well done, piosenniel.
[img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Nain (of the Iron Hills variety) is the chap that I was looking for.

Might someone want to remind her that she entered this quiz?

I have no time to craft an anagram - Arestevana, I name you my heir, and if you wish please continue on! ~~ Pio

Barring that - the next reader of this quick post: Please take up the challenge!

Okay.

Since it's 29 letters [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] could we have a hint?

Well, you know what letter it starts with. (that's S, for the newcomers) Two of the words are names, the other two are the connection between the names. She is also known as
'the air maiden of the fort of sound'
[img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

The first is her name. The last is her father's. The middle two are the connection between them, which is now pretty obvious.

Okay, this is getting ridiculous. She is the ancestress of the two figures pictured at the Argonath. Her father is the fourth king of Numenor. I can't give you any more hints without actually saying her name. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Why, then it must be Silmarien, daughter of Tar-Elendil. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Oh, I'm so sorry, I completely forgot about this thread! [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
Yes, that is correct. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Please continue!

Just to be clear, this one begins with an 'L'.

Perhaps a case of Uruk-Hai fever, when:

Savage goblin lies back ill

Any takers?

Argh! I am now doomed to create an anagram!

Lobelia Sackville Baggins

Indeed you are, pio, for you are of course correct. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I eagerly await the anagram of doom. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Celebrían tried to escape her doom, o mod.

She was fast, the arrow faster . . . indeed, the

And there you have it, the anagram of doom . . . [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Ah, 'tis my doom to guess the anagram of doom. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
