Is it the twin?

Evisse the Blue · 07-30-2004, 11:06 AM

Is it a gift?

Firefoot · 07-30-2004, 11:44 AM

It is not Estel, Elrohir, or the Elessar.

Thorongil · 07-30-2004, 11:44 AM

Is it one of the three?

Firefoot · 07-30-2004, 11:50 AM

It is not Erellont.

Thorongil · 07-31-2004, 06:48 AM

Is it one of the three?

Firefoot · 07-31-2004, 07:05 AM

Evisse - that's good because I was about to give up on it...

It is not Elbereth or Elostirion.

So in that case you can wait until Perky gives his answer...

The Perky Ent · 07-31-2004, 08:56 PM

Woah. Sorry. Loss of post. Wasn't keeping track. Forget my post. It's rubbish. My answer was Elrohir, but aparently it's already been said. So sorry. My mind must be going. As a matter of fact, I think it is. Terribly sorry.

Evisse the Blue · 08-01-2004, 02:51 AM

Is it the herald of the Lord of the West?

Firefoot · 08-01-2004, 05:22 AM

In that case, it is not Ecthelion, it is not Eä, and it is not Eönwe.

Now, for everybody else's ease (and my own) here is what has been said before: Echoriath, Elured, Elros, Elendur, Elbereth, Elostirion, Esmerelda Took, Entwives, Eressëa, Eru, Emyn Muil, Ekkaia, Elladan, Ezellohar, Eldamar, Erendis, Esgaroth, Ered Nimrais, Eldar, Elfstone, Estë, Edoras, Eriol, Éomer, Éowyn, Elrond, Eärendil, Ered Luin, Estel, Elrohir, the Elessar, and Erellont.

Morsul the Dark · 07-30-2004, 11:50 AM

is it another name for aragorn?

Firefoot · 07-30-2004, 11:54 AM

It is not Elfstone (Does Elessar count for already having been said even though it is referencing different things?).

Morsul the Dark · 07-30-2004, 11:57 AM

is it another name for elves?

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-30-2004, 01:23 PM

Is it a mountain range?

(Can ask again if I have another answer, right?)

I think it would be better if it still counts, since if your word would have been Elessar (aragorn) and someone would have asked the gem, there would be no possible way left for us to ask the correct word, Elessar.

do the harbingers of Manwe dwell there?

The Perky Ent · 07-30-2004, 03:27 PM

Is it the hilll of the two?

Firefoot · 07-30-2004, 04:27 PM

It's not Elladan, Ezellohar, Eldamar, or Erendis.

I think I will be seeing a couple of these questions again...

Morsul the Dark · 07-30-2004, 04:29 PM

is it the outer sea?

Firefoot · 07-30-2004, 06:09 PM

Not Ekkaia.
