The Perky Ent · 09-15-2004, 04:16 PM

Woah! Sorry! With my recent evacuation from my home, my mind isn't strait. I'm keeping Dorthonion, and Doom! The others I'll need to recheck

NightKnight · 09-15-2004, 11:30 PM

Is it the land of the Wronged?

The Perky Ent · 09-16-2004, 10:31 AM

Whats your answeR?

NightKnight · 09-16-2004, 12:01 PM

Dor Cuarthol, the land of Beleg and Turin. He took the name Neithan, meaning "the Wronged" at some point.

The Perky Ent · 09-16-2004, 12:34 PM

D O M

Hookbill the Goomba · 09-16-2004, 12:50 PM

I'm running out of ideas...

is it what Sauron and Melkor wanted?

NightKnight · 09-16-2004, 12:53 PM

Is it where the palantir of Osgiliath was kept?

The Perky Ent · 09-16-2004, 01:05 PM

NightKnight got it!

NightKnight · 09-16-2004, 11:26 PM

Yay!

Starts with an R.

Hookbill the Goomba · 09-17-2004, 12:04 AM

Is it where Mirkwood is?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 09-17-2004, 02:59 AM

Is it sacred even to evil creatures?

The Perky Ent · 09-17-2004, 07:21 AM

Is it where it broke?

**The Saucepan Man** · 09-17-2004, 10:17 AM

Is it a waterfall?

Evisse the Blue · 09-17-2004, 12:19 PM

My answer was the same!

(and since I asked my question before nightknight I'm the morale winner.

Am I sensing some Sweden-Finland competition here?

)

but to the topic:
does it have roots?

NightKnight · 09-18-2004, 12:55 PM

It's not Rhovanion, Ring, riverside (Frodo's sword), Rauros, rabbits or Redhorn.

Of course, paavo.

Nah, just kidding.

paavo · 09-18-2004, 02:52 PM

does it have roots?

The Perky Ent · 09-18-2004, 04:44 PM

Is it the liquid departer?

Avie · 09-18-2004, 05:19 PM

I'm just gonna crawl under my mac and die....you lot have MUCH bigger brains than I can cope with

The Perky Ent · 09-18-2004, 05:46 PM

lol It takes time. When I started, I knew nothing. I really didn't even know anyting about LOTR. But, after hanging around the Quiz Room, I was introduced to topics and I learned a lot. It's subtle education.

NightKnight · 09-19-2004, 04:54 AM

It's not Rowans or Running.

paavo · 09-19-2004, 06:21 AM

is it used very rarely?

The Perky Ent · 09-19-2004, 09:48 AM

Is it the liquid departer?

Hookbill the Goomba · 09-19-2004, 09:53 AM

Is it Strider's ocupation?

NightKnight · 09-20-2004, 09:47 AM

It's not Red Ring or Ranger. Perks, what's your answer?

The Perky Ent · 09-20-2004, 06:21 PM

My answer is the Ring of Adament. The Ring of Adament, more commonly know as Nenya, is the ring of water. It departed with Galadriel when she left Middle Earth. Liquid Departer.

paavo · 09-21-2004, 10:10 AM

nice question Perks!

NightKnight · 09-21-2004, 12:33 PM

Ah, a very good one indeed. The next letter is A.

paavo · 09-21-2004, 12:41 PM

was it supposed to be a gamgee?

NightKnight · 09-21-2004, 02:46 PM

It's not Ranugad.

Gil-Galad · 09-21-2004, 04:29 PM

Friend of less knowing?

**The Saucepan Man** · 09-21-2004, 04:42 PM

Does it involve a waterfall?

The Perky Ent · 09-21-2004, 04:43 PM

Is it the big shiny thing?

Evisse the Blue · 09-22-2004, 05:52 AM

Does it come out at night?

NightKnight · 09-22-2004, 09:23 AM

Saucy, the only one I can come up with is Rauros, and I've said that before. If you have another answer, please tell me.

Perks and Evisse: It's not Rana.

Gil-Galad, please tell me your answer.

I was thinking of the Rainbow Cleft, or Cirith Ninniach, so called because "where the water foamed among the boulders or rushed over sudden falls, at morning and evening rainbows were woven across the stream".

NightKnight · 09-22-2004, 02:31 PM

Ah, good one. RAD.

The Perky Ent · 09-22-2004, 04:14 PM

Is it the brown?

I don't know if this has been asked, but better safe than sorry!

Gil-Galad · 09-22-2004, 04:32 PM

My anwser was Radagast... so i guess you add another letter...
