Congratulations, Nerwen! I actually considered Sarn Ford myself when Galadriel55 brought up the Rangers, but I'd never have thought of the role it played in Tar-Minastir's war, and therefore discarded it 'cause I couldn't make it fit the second stanza. Great riddling!
To answer your question, Legate, I think it was quite tough indeed, but beautifully woven with its allusions across two Ages of history, and once you know the answer, it's perfectly logical. Loved it!
