Right. Proceed

Legolas · 03-17-2003, 05:06 PM

To restart this thread:

Who was Fingolfin's wife?

Pallando B.C · 03-17-2003, 07:15 PM

Quote:

The wife of Fingolfin was Anaire. She remained on Aman mainly due to her friendship with Earwen. All her sons went with her father.

This was my answer to the question you asked me on this thread back in Nov, 2002. You must be interested in Anaire. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Legolas · 03-17-2003, 08:45 PM

rofl

I have a tendency to reuse questions. I'll think of a new one. She's just left out of The Silmarillion so folks have to dig a little deeper.

Name all of the sisters of Fingolfin that Tolkien went through.

[ March 17, 2003: Message edited by: Legolas ]

Pallando B.C · 03-17-2003, 10:12 PM

Findis, Faniel, and Írimë were the sisters, I hope!

Legolas · 03-17-2003, 10:24 PM

That's it! Good work.

Pallando B.C · 03-18-2003, 07:14 PM

Thank You.

Name the lament made by Maglor.

Beren87 · 03-19-2003, 05:11 PM

The Noldolantë?

Pallando B.C · 03-19-2003, 06:22 PM

Good to see you back Beren. Your Turn.

Beren87 · 03-20-2003, 03:08 PM

Thanks Pallando! and wow, that was a complete guess as that was the only work I knew by Maglor.

Where did Galadriel dwell with Finrod early in her stay in ME?

Ultimatejoe · 03-20-2003, 03:37 PM

Minas Tirith?

elven maiden Earwen · 03-22-2003, 11:34 PM

Doraith??
or
Hithlum??

Pallando B.C · 04-02-2003, 05:22 PM

With the sudden urge to ressurect old threads sweaping across people on the Downs, we start to lose really good threads such as this one. Beren's confirmation is required on this one, which is odd, because Beren is very good at keeping commitments to threads, but I think we can forgive ol' Dry Bones for this one.

Ok, a question. What was Ondolindë the original name for?

Eruanna · 04-05-2003, 05:18 PM

It was the original Quenya name for Gondolin.

Pallando B.C · 04-06-2003, 04:18 AM

Yes!

Eruanna · 04-06-2003, 01:02 PM

Thanks...Here's my question:

Galadriel was her chosen Sindarin name, but what two other names (proper names not nicknames) had "The Lady of the Golden Wood" also been called?

[ April 06, 2003: Message edited by: Eruanna ]

Lord Elessar · 04-06-2003, 02:30 PM

well all the names i could find are:
Alatáriel, Artanis, Galadriel, Nerwen

all the names she has i think !

ps if i'm correct relinquish my right to ask a question since i'm not a frequent here!

Eruanna · 04-06-2003, 02:41 PM

That was quick!

Well done Lord Elessar (and welcome to the Downs [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] )

If you don't wish to pose a question then the floor is open.....

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-08-2003, 02:45 AM

I'll ask one [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Which two kings were slain by Gothmog?

alquadae · 04-08-2003, 03:50 AM

Azaghal
Bregolas

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-08-2003, 12:26 PM

Was Bregolas actually a king? *puzzled*
I should probably have said "two of the kings" not "the two kings" because there were more than two... Azaghal should certainly count.

Hm...

alquadae · 04-08-2003, 04:52 PM

Oops oops oops, Read The Full Question.
Get a little excited some times.
"Gothmog, Lord of Balrogs. High captian of Angband,slayer of Feanor,Fingon and Ecthelion."

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-08-2003, 05:46 PM

[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Now you can have it... I was thinking of Feanor and Fingon.

Sophia

alquadae · 04-08-2003, 06:29 PM

What is known as a "Dusk Singer"?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-11-2003, 07:11 PM

A nightingale... Lomelinde... I think?

alquadae · 04-12-2003, 05:20 AM

Yes Great!!

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-12-2003, 01:43 PM

Where did Nienor meet her brother Turin and not know him? (before they married each other?)

That's a hard question to word, if it's too confusing, tell me.

alquadae · 04-12-2003, 03:10 PM

alquadae · 04-14-2003, 07:00 PM

Yes indeed, please carry on!!!

Eruanna · 04-14-2003, 07:18 PM

Which one of the Eldar was the first to meet men and by what name did they call him?

04-14-2003, 07:42 PM

Finrod Felagund, who was known as Nom the Wise.

Eruanna · 04-15-2003, 09:38 AM

Correct, Galadriel's Slave.

Which jagged precipice was the Dark Elf executed by being flung over?

Beren87 · 04-15-2003, 03:39 PM

Eöl was cast over Caragdûr.

04-15-2003, 07:44 PM

Yes indeed... go for it [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 04-15-2003, 07:53 PM

Allrighty.

What year [circa, anyway] did Thingol forbid the Sindar to speak Quenya?
