Ah, Sheolb... duh. hmm probably wrong too. Of course this is an VERY broad category.

TolkienGurl · 12-19-2002, 02:30 PM

Yes, it was Shelob. Sorry for the "broadness." I'll try to ask more concise questions if I get any more right! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Lindolirian · 12-19-2002, 02:37 PM

What city stood at the junction of the Gate Stream and River Glanduin?

Eruwen · 12-19-2002, 03:40 PM

Was it Moria? I found the river Glanduin, but I just can't seem to find the Gate Stream. And the only city I see around the first river was Moria.

Lindolirian · 12-19-2002, 04:17 PM

It's an ancient city. Not Moria, but its ruins are still there.

TolkienGurl · 12-20-2002, 09:37 AM

Hollin? That's the only one I could think of.

Lindolirian · 12-20-2002, 11:27 PM

No, its a city.

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-21-2002, 03:04 PM

Ost-in-Edhil? The 'city of the elves'.

Aylwen

Lindolirian · 12-21-2002, 03:29 PM

That's it Aylwen!

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-21-2002, 04:07 PM

Cool!

Anyway, this is kind of easy, sorry [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] ...

The Orocarni are also known as...?

Aylwen

Lindolirian · 07-16-2004, 10:58 PM

Narog and Nenning.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-16-2004, 11:29 PM

Your turn, I guess.

luthien-elvenprincess · 08-01-2004, 06:49 PM

Lindo...bump!!

Pallando B.C · 12-22-2002, 08:58 PM

The Red Mountains

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-22-2002, 09:05 PM

Yes. Go ahead.

Pallando B.C · 12-22-2002, 09:13 PM

If I travelled 40 miles North of the Hills of Evendim and then 100 or so miles East, Then another 120 miles south, where would I be?

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 12-22-2002, 10:50 PM

Would you be at Fornost in the North Downs?

Pallando B.C · 12-23-2002, 04:53 AM

Great Job, Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood.

Your father would be proud [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 12-23-2002, 05:36 PM

I sure hope he would be!

What's the name of the hill in the Forest of Brethil?....I know I know, it's quite easy but hey I'm a bit new at this.

Pallando B.C · 12-23-2002, 06:01 PM

Doesn't matter If you're new, I'm #4760 and that I'm sure would be regarded as new.

The Hill in the Forest of Brethil is Amon Obel.

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 12-23-2002, 06:08 PM

That is correct! Your turn.

Oh and I'm not new to this site. I've been here since July and have quite a lot of posts around here, except that the RPG room used to be my main place. I mean I'm new to quizing.

Besides I'm better at answering than at giving questions.

Pallando B.C · 12-25-2002, 04:06 AM

Oh, ok. As you can see I'm new at least!

What river is the seperates the regions of Eregion and Dunland

TolkienGurl · 12-25-2002, 05:06 PM

The river Glanduin.

Pallando B.C · 12-25-2002, 09:34 PM

Yes, the floor is yours!

TolkienGurl · 12-26-2002, 03:14 PM

Thanks! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

On which river did the Teleri, being slow and reluctant, camp long in Middle-earth?

Lindolirian · 12-26-2002, 06:33 PM

Anduin the Great.

TolkienGurl · 12-27-2002, 03:52 PM

Right! Your turn.

Lindolirian · 12-27-2002, 05:03 PM

Describe the location of Dor Daidelos.

Gwaihir the Windlord · 12-27-2002, 09:07 PM

I am not sure if you've got the right spelling, but I believe the area you are referring to was north-west of Ard-Galan/Anfauglith, the hilly land through which one passes to come to Thangorodrim and Angband.

Lindolirian · 12-27-2002, 09:21 PM

I see what you are thinking. The land you are describing is Dor Daedeloth. I was hoping someone would go for that one.

Gwaihir the Windlord · 12-28-2002, 04:54 AM

Curse you... then it's anybody's guess. Never heard of that.

TolkienGurl · 12-28-2002, 09:12 AM

North of the Iron Mountains and the northernmost part of Middle-earth, Dor Daidelos is the Region of Everlasting Cold.

Lindolirian · 12-28-2002, 11:38 AM

Curse me?? Anyways, yes TolkienGurl, you are correct.

TolkienGurl · 12-30-2002, 03:15 PM

Umm... how about "Bless you" instead! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Name 2 cities in which Numenor's population was concentrated.

I hope it isn't too easy!

Lindolirian · 12-30-2002, 05:41 PM

Andunë and Armenelos

TolkienGurl · 12-30-2002, 06:18 PM

Armenelos is correct, but there was another city with a higher population concentration than Andúnië, or so my book source tells me. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Which one is it?

Lindolirian · 12-30-2002, 06:22 PM

It is Romenna then.

TolkienGurl · 12-30-2002, 06:34 PM

Yup. You're really good at this. Ask away!

[ December 30, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

Lindolirian · 12-30-2002, 08:02 PM

Between what two rivers does the Silent Land lay?

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-31-2002, 03:12 PM

Silent Land is Dor Dinen, so I believe it lies between the River Aros and the River Nivrim. Yet I'm not so sure about Nivrim.

Aylwen
