No Angband or Utumno, then?  |
It is the Thousand Caves, which are famously within the
Girdle of Melian.
DWARROWDELF - A proper plural and archaic form gives the black its English name.
ELVENKING'S HALLS - Named for their master in the blackened green.
LONELY MOUNTAIN - Known by where and what it is, home of gold.
THOUSAND CA
VES - Belted and counted; look three from the back.
IRON HILLS - Fear halved, an elementary rise for the new king.
NARGOTHROND - Elvish fire, depart! The hammer begins to be cast by the river.
GUNDABAD - Firearms - the evil in the north.
Theme: Underground realms
Mene in this case is
meneg, 'thousand'; in the constellation, I think it's
menel, 'heaven'.
Over to you,
