Legolas 11-13-2002 09:49 PM

No, it wasn't a Valar, or anyone mistaken to be one.

Morgoth Bauglir 11-14-2002 08:50 AM

tuor to turgon?

Legolas 11-14-2002 01:13 PM

No, you were actually closer before.

Legolas 11-19-2002 10:29 PM

Anybody with a guess?

Eärendil 11-20-2002 04:33 AM

Not a single idea. But with a hint..... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Legolas 11-20-2002 07:16 PM

You've been given a hint. Morgoth was close when he said one of the Valar. It's not one of them, but close.

Joy 11-22-2002 12:52 AM

It was the Herald of Manwë, Eonwë who stated this to Fëanor in the Chapter Of The Flight of the Noldor.

Quote:

But even as the trumpet sang and Fëanor issued from the gates of Tirion a messenger came at last from Manwë, saying: 'Against the folly of Fëanor shall be set my counsel only. Go not forth! For the hour is evil, and your road leads to sorrow that ye do not foresee. No aid will the Valar lend you in this quest; but neither will they hinder you; for this ye shall know: as ye came hither freely, freely shall ye depart

Morgoth Bauglir 11-22-2002 10:33 PM

it was manwe though

Legolas 11-23-2002 12:57 AM

Joy is right, though it wasn't Eonwe. If it was, I'm sure it would've said so. Manwe had many messengers, I'd imagine.

Joy 11-23-2002 01:12 AM

Thanks Legolas, wasn't too sure about the Eonwë part.

Almost. I am spent. I shall go with the sun. Now little time is left: if you know, tell me! How did she find him?

Lindolirian 11-24-2002 10:25 AM

Morwen to Hurin at the stone marking the body of Turin.

Joy 11-24-2002 05:35 PM

Correct! Your go.

Lindolirian 11-24-2002 07:54 PM

Quote:

You can give no aid.

Joy 11-24-2002 10:06 PM

That was Mîm to Túrin Túrambar.

Quote:

Then Mîm looked up at him, and said: 'You can give no aid. For this is Khîm, my son; and he is dead, pierced by an arrow. He died at sunset. Ibun my son has told me.'

Lindolirian 11-25-2002 03:12 PM

Correct!

Joy 11-25-2002 05:50 PM

Quote:

This I say to you, lord, with the eyes of death: though we part here for ever, and I shall not look on your white walls again, from your and from me a new star shall arise. Farewell!
Probably very easy.

Lindolirian 11-26-2002 05:14 PM

Huor.

Joy 11-26-2002 11:21 PM

You are correct Lindolirian!

Lindolirian 11-29-2002 09:19 PM

Quote:

Then your words bode ill, for they can bear but one meaning.

Eärendil 12-09-2002 08:04 AM

Once again I have to swallow my pride ( [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]) and ask: hints please..? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Lindolirian 12-10-2002 06:16 PM

Hmmm.... you made me wait too long and now I forget what the answer was actually. I shall look for it and if I find it, I will give you a hint, or if someone answeres correctly and it sparks my memory I will obviously confirm it. Hehe... sorry.

Beren87 12-10-2002 06:33 PM

It twas Turgon to Thorondor.

Lindolirian 12-10-2002 07:08 PM

Ah, yes it was. Thank you Beren. See you did spark my memory.

Beren87 12-10-2002 08:40 PM

Here's one for ye:
Quote:

'Enter into Bar-en-Danwedh, the House of Ransom; for so it shall be called.'

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood 12-11-2002 12:00 AM

That would be Mim to Turin. I'll wait for your verification Beren before starting a new quote.

[ December 11, 2002: Message edited by: Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood ]

Beren87 12-13-2002 08:46 PM

Correct of course my dear.

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood 12-15-2002 02:27 AM

Okay, here's the next one:

Quote:

"You have my leave, but not my love,"

Beren87 12-15-2002 02:40 AM

Twas Curufin to Eol.

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood 12-15-2002 02:42 AM

That would indeed be correct! You are quite fast at it my I add. Your turn.

Beren87 12-16-2002 06:48 PM

*bows* Thank you, Thank you

Quote:

A wandering elf, a thrall escaped

Lindolirian 12-17-2002 05:39 PM

Well, I'm pretty sure it's describing Gwindor, but was it he who said it?

Beren87 12-17-2002 05:40 PM

That would be correct.

Beren87 12-23-2002 12:08 AM

Your turn Lindolirian. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Beren87 12-29-2002 06:11 PM

*cough* yet again your turn...I know your on, dont try and hide.

Lindolirian 12-29-2002 06:24 PM

Whoops, I forgot about the thread. Just kick me or somethin next time... if that's possible.

Quote:

I have to returned to take what is mine, for I am the last of my people.
Not too sure, if I got the words perfect, I just got it off the top of my head.

Bruce MacCulloch 12-29-2002 08:48 PM

Mîm to Húrin in Nargothrond.
