His stunt double?

The Perky Ent 07-21-2004 07:36 PM

Correct!

***Gandalf*** 07-21-2004 08:06 PM

For 4 points, who are the "we" the riddle refers to?


The Riddle: Both times we came first, and fought the first when we could

The Perky Ent 07-21-2004 08:07 PM

I'll bid 4 points and say the Petty Dwarves. They were created first, and came to Beleriand before the elves, and attacked the first born whenever they could at night.

***Gandalf*** 07-21-2004 08:38 PM

It is! 4 points your way!

The Perky Ent 07-22-2004 12:22 PM

Ok, for two points what is the meaning of Moria in dwarvish?
