Two truths and a lie... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I am now, and of course, do carry on!

Hope it'll be a hard one.

Well, I'll try my very best...

Casualties

1. Faramir was slain in battle with the Wainriders.
2. Théodred was slain in the second battle of the Fords of Isen.
3. Grimbold was slain in the battle on the Pelennor Fields.

I believe 'tis the first one.

Pitchwife · 06-02-2009, 09:31 AM

No, sorry, Eonwe, 1. is not a lie. That one was a red herring.

The Might · 06-02-2009, 10:01 AM

It sure was, since there were two Faramirs. The first one, meant here, was indeed mortally wounded by Wainriders.
And Grimbold did indeed die at the Battle of the Pelennor Fields.
However, Theodred died at the First, not the Second Battle. So that's the lie.

I knew it seemed too easy...

Might, I knew you would! Correct, of course. Go ahead!
And Eonwe, the other Faramir was the younger son of King Ondoher of Gondor, about a millennium or so before Boromir's little brother (but a little brother as well). Sorry for being mean.
