Hey, I think it's not that unspecific. Or at least with the "the first you can't know" - that makes me think of, for example, Tom Bombadil. Although this one would not make sense for different reasons (like who would be the other Tom "long ago", of course you have e.g. Tom the Troll, but he was not "long ago" unless you think of Bombadil as the Bombadil in LotR, at that particular moment, in that case Bilbo's journey could be perceived as "long ago", but in the context...). I think this one actually need not be that unspecific, one just needs to think... It will be Tom, Ungoliant, something like that
