Olorin, that's how the game should be played. The quote makes the reader remember something like it, and maybe it's been changed, so the guess of the reader will be wrong, and the writer may post another qoute.

Firefoot has been trapped in the Barrow!
Well, it is true. Elrond said it at the Council of Elrond. Olorin, you can go.

Question

Um, I think it's true - didn't one of the hobbits say that outside of the Barrow?

Quicksilver is the winner! The quotes from Merry in a slightly...possesed(?)...state of mind, remembering the attack of the men of Carn-Dum on Arnor. The little we learn about Angmar and Arnor in the Tom chapters is one of their highlights imho...along with the mad singing man
