Palantir of Fortune: Lost Tales/HoME
 

What about a perhaps more challenging form of "Palantir of Fortune"
based on the less known CT edited Book Of Lost Tales and HoME?
(Unless it's too redundant to other games, at the discretion of moderators).

Citations could be drawn from poems, songs, and/or quotes.

1) It might be more challenging to not look up the quotes, unless stumped.
2) Where known, the speaker should also be identified, although many times
there is no specific speaker.

Not too popular, eh?
 

Let's breath some life into it, probably the thread simply went unnoticed (I for one just spotted it)

How about some E's?

T's --- please

Oops! There are a couple of problems here.
1) I have erratic access to a computer (my old one can't get online and I have to use library ones)
2) It's been so long I forgot the quote. :D :o

So here's a new one. However, I can only check it 4-5 times a week, so you may need to be patient.

P.S. Had to start a new poster form:
so Tuor of Gondolin=Tuor in Gondolin.

Er, mind adding some a's, please?

And while we are at it, did you forget your previous login pass or something? Is there difference between the post # 1 and #4 or are my eyes deceiving me? :eek: (yes, I indeed do mean 'of' and 'in' interoperability...)

how about an H please :)

It's obviously been a while :) so i don't have the
quote with me. I'll try to check tomorrow. Also, I
put in a missing "r".

G?

some i's would be useful :)

Looks strangely familiar.

I think a 'W' might help.

Now it's nearly complete!! Come on, Macalaure, you surely know it! ;)

Thanks for reminding, Guinevere. I forgot about this.
Well, I can't check right now, but I think it's:

Lady beloved, whom all Men,
whom Elfinesse, and whom all things
with fur and fell and feathered wings
should serve and love - arise! Away!
Put on thy cloak! Before the day
comes over Nargothrond we fly
to Northern perils, thou and I.

Sounds like Huan to Luthien.

That's it! And in only 13 months! :D

I thought there might be indecision as to whether
the speaker was Huan or Beren.

Let's see if I can do the next in 12? :D

Alrighty, new one:
