Gurthang 01-17-2005 10:19 PM

Hmmmm.
 
I'm not sure about this, but...

'And maybe,
the road that leads thence to the pass above will prove an easier way of assault upon the Dark Lord than his northern gate.'

Is that it?

Nilpaurion Felagund 01-17-2005 10:26 PM

Das ist es!
 
Present the next puzzle, Gurthang! :)

Gurthang 01-20-2005 08:51 PM

Had to look something up...
 
Here you go.

Note: The dash in parentheses does not represent a letter; it is a dash in the text.

I've always wanted to do this...
 
Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden!
Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter!
spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered,
a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!

Gurthang 01-21-2005 05:30 PM

:eek: I didn't think it would be too hard, but, wow, that was fast! Good Job, Firefoot . Your go.

Firefoot 01-21-2005 05:40 PM

Thanks.

Aha...Beorn speaking:

A fine comic one. Come in my merry men, and what are your names? I don't want your service just now, only your names; and then sit down and stop wagging!

Firefoot 01-22-2005 09:46 PM

Yes, Ma'am. The thread is yours.

luthien-elvenprincess 01-23-2005 07:52 AM

Ma'am? hum...not sure I like being a Ma'am... sorta sounds dowager-like :p

Firefoot 01-23-2005 12:28 PM

Yes, Ma'am. (Very sarcastic, I assure you. ;) :D )

T's?

luthien-elvenprincess 01-23-2005 08:11 PM

OK, OK...I can see I am being ganged-up on! :eek: (backs off for now...plots revenge)

In the hour that Isildur took the Ring and would not surrender it, this doom was wrought, that Sauron should return.

luthien-elvenprincess 01-24-2005 06:08 PM

"Yes, you are indeed correct" she said primly, wafting her delicately scented hankie past her slightly upturned nose. (Sniffs slighty, then turns to take her seat in the observation section.) :p

Nilpaurion Felagund 01-24-2005 09:34 PM

Merci beaucoup, mademoiselle!

Guinevere 01-26-2005 02:49 AM

Well now it's pretty obvious, but I can't resist that one ;) since I don't even have to open a book:
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 you and from me a new star shall arise."

Nilpaurion Felagund 01-26-2005 07:30 PM

Guinevere strikes again.
 
Present the postliminary puzzle, Banshee of Camelot. :)

Guinevere 01-27-2005 07:51 AM
