Yes, I erm..reminded Thengise, but she doesn't seem to have gotten around to it as she has been busy as of late.

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood 01-26-2003 12:43 PM

Ack! I'm so sorry! I've been really busy lately, considering the fact I'm not supposed to be on the computer. Oh and thanks Beren for reminding me.

Yes, Pallando B.C you are correct!

Russandol 01-26-2003 01:23 PM

Gil-Estel - The Star of High Hope

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood 01-29-2003 05:36 PM

I suppose, but that's not the answer I'm looking for...

Pallando B.C 01-29-2003 06:14 PM

The Morning Star perhaps?

alaklondewen 01-29-2003 08:13 PM

How about the Evening Star?

Russandol 01-30-2003 10:33 AM

So am I right, or are you looking for something more specific? Could we have a clue if that is so?

Beren87 01-30-2003 04:21 PM

I'm no longer ansering on this thread, as I've gone too many times already. She's looking for the Quenya name.

Pallando B.C 01-30-2003 05:45 PM

I elen estelo, then?

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood 01-30-2003 05:49 PM

Nope, still not it...

Oh and 'I elen estelo' I believe is Sindarin not Quenya.

Pallando B.C 02-08-2003 05:40 PM

Hint perhaps? Or on to the next question?

gralin musicteeth 02-08-2003 05:40 PM

please.

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood 02-08-2003 10:16 PM

Sorry everyone about the wait. Hmm...well since no one got it, I'm just going to move on to the next question. Oh and the answer was the Flammifer of Westernesse.

Ultimatejoe 02-09-2003 02:14 PM

Mardil Voronwe was the first person to bear the title of Ruling Steward, if that's what you mean.

Pallando B.C 02-17-2003 10:20 PM

This thread needs you to update frequently, Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood. Please keep up!

Pallando B.C 02-20-2003 07:30 PM

I call for a new set of questions (by someone other then Thengise). Anyone second this?

I'll take it since I was one of the three in first place. Gil-Galad, please feel free to jump in any time and answer.

1) What was the name Aulë gave the Dwarves at their creation?

Pallando B.C 02-22-2003 05:50 PM

Denethor, Son of Lenwë. Leader of the Nandorin Elves in the First Age.

Denethor I, the Tenth Ruling Steward of Gondor. Obviously a Man in the Third Age Age.

Denethor II, the Twenty-sixth and last Ruling Steward of Gondor. A (foolish) Man of the Third Age.

alaklondewen 02-22-2003 09:06 PM

Good job!

Pallando B.C 02-23-2003 03:09 AM

I remember asking the very same question in Geography Grilling a while back.

Irensaga was my answer then.

alaklondewen 02-23-2003 07:48 AM

That's interesting, Pallando B.C, because I don't think I've ever been on that thread. My best is not geography, so it was not intentional.

Pallando B.C - 2

Pallando B.C 02-23-2003 04:17 PM

Pallando B.C 02-23-2003 10:14 PM

Nothing.

Melkor had promised the Silmarils to Ungoliant, but never inteded to give them to her.

alaklondewen 02-23-2003 10:16 PM

He did give her something(s), for she said that he gave to her with one hand only.

Beren87 02-23-2003 10:23 PM

All of the gems that he stole from Formenos.
