Anyway, who was King Greymantle?

elven maiden Earwen 07-26-2003 06:48 PM

Elu Thingol?

Beren87 07-26-2003 07:00 PM

That would be the Melian-obsessed person in question.

elven maiden Earwen 07-26-2003 07:06 PM

Does that mean I'm right? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Beren87 07-26-2003 07:07 PM

Er..yeah, it does. =P Although, a little more info would have been nice.

elven maiden Earwen 07-26-2003 07:13 PM

Sorry but all I know is that Singollo which was a old form of Thingol ment greymantle. Greymantle was the literal meaning of the name Thingol.

Explain each short-word component of the name 'Tinuviel'.

Luthien_ Tinuviel 07-29-2003 09:47 AM

Well, tindome means 'starry twilight' (in Quenya), from which comes 'tindomerel'. In Sindarin this is Tinuviel (-iel being the feminine suffix). The name means "Daughter of Twilight".

Is that thorough enough?
