Urwen, I'm going to be on the road all of today and a lot of tomorrow, so if you have one ready, feel free to go instead of me.

Here is a shorter one

Nine versus nine
A long road ahead
This road is mine
One which I must tread

Sounds like the Fellowship and the Nazgul, with Frodo speaking.

Urwen · 03-31-2019, 03:58 AM

Yes. Should we continue, or wait for Nerwen?

Pervinca Took · 03-31-2019, 05:20 AM

I'm pretty sure Nerwen would say continue ... Galadriel has just guessed one, so it's her go.

Ere elf sang or hammer rang,
Ere iron was found or tree was hewn,
When young was mountain under moon,
I was still whole, I dwelt alone.

Ere tree was hewn, they needed me.
A great force did tug at me,
But strong was my connection,
My land I would not leave.
From that day I was broken.

They came again to my domain,
And tree was hewed, and jewels were found,
And then no more they needed me
To leave the land, where I was stuck.
But I gave them protection,
I gave them a start.
I shall stay until I die,
They will all depart.

Have fun with it!
