What is the perimeter of Pelennor Fields. Distance and name

alaklondewen · 03-01-2004, 05:14 PM

The outer-wall that surrounded the Pelennor fields was called the Rammas Echor. I hope this is what you're looking for:

Quote:

For ten leagues or more it ran from the mountains' feet and so back again, enclosing in its fence the fields of the Pelennor:

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-02-2004, 05:46 AM

Correct...Rammas Echor and more than 10 leagues long.
Congrats..your turn.

alaklondewen · 03-02-2004, 07:05 PM

Thank you, luthien-elvenprincess.

Now, which river flows into the Isen at Enedwaith?

NightKnight · 03-03-2004, 01:16 AM

Adorn?

alaklondewen · 03-03-2004, 01:31 PM

That's the one, KnightNight. Well Done.

NightKnight · 03-03-2004, 02:04 PM

Thanks.

Name the seven rivers of Ossiriand.

symestreem · 03-03-2004, 02:55 PM

Ascar, Thalos, Legolin, Brilthor, Duilwen, Adurant, and Gelion.

NightKnight · 03-03-2004, 03:09 PM

That's right. Your turn.

symestreem · 03-03-2004, 08:10 PM

Name a non-moving body of water in Turgon's realm.

Lindolirian · 03-04-2004, 06:42 AM

Linaewen in Nevrast.

NightKnight · 03-04-2004, 02:02 PM

Eh...the great fountain that Ecthelion and Gothmog fell in?

symestreem · 03-06-2004, 08:10 PM

Lindolirian got it, but NightKnight gets points for creativity, although a fountain is technically moving.

NightKnight · 03-07-2004, 05:24 AM

Yay! Points for me!

Lindolirian · 03-08-2004, 07:53 AM

Hahaha... Good one NightKnight!

What two rivers is the Forest of the Hunters in between?

NightKnight · 03-08-2004, 10:59 AM

Sirion and Gelion?

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-08-2004, 02:21 PM

The River Narog and the River Nenning

Lindolirian · 03-09-2004, 01:36 PM

That's it, Luthien!

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-09-2004, 06:03 PM

OK...
If you wanted to take a baby present to Dior Eluchil, but you lived in Caranthir's Land; on which rivers would you have to paddle order to get there?

NightKnight · 03-10-2004, 01:31 AM

You would have to paddle down Gelion and then turn left on Adurant.

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-10-2004, 09:40 PM

Correct, Night Knight. Your go.

NightKnight · 03-11-2004, 01:57 PM

Damn, I'm running out of questions.

Name the regions of Númenor.

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-11-2004, 03:28 PM

Forostar-Northlands
Andustar-WEstlands
Hyarnustar-Southwestlands
Hyarrostar-Southeastlands
Orrostar-Eastlands
Mittalmar-Middleland
Arandar-Kingsland

NightKnight · 03-12-2004, 07:10 AM

Correct-ness. Your turn.

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-12-2004, 07:27 AM

Where is Scary?

Lindolirian · 03-12-2004, 10:51 AM

Scary is in the mid-northern part of the East Farthing of the Shire. Its gives its name to the nearby Hills of Scary and is approximately 30 miles northeast of the Three Farthing Stone

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-12-2004, 12:19 PM

wow, all I really needed was 'a village in the Eastfarthing"!

You are very correct, Lindolirian.

Lindolirian · 03-12-2004, 04:33 PM

Well, sometimes you never can be too sure; some people want answers to be really specific.

O well!

A little geometry problem for ye...
What is the area in square feet of the Ring of Isengard?

The Perky Ent · 03-12-2004, 05:34 PM

Um...howabout 84,480 square feet?

Lindolirian · 03-12-2004, 09:56 PM

That would be it if the Ring was 328 feet from rim to rim. It is much larger.

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-12-2004, 10:51 PM

There would be about 21,895,626 square feet in the Ring of Isengard.

Lindolirian · 03-13-2004, 01:40 PM

Very nice!

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-14-2004, 08:19 AM

Leaving Bywater, I head to the place where Aragorn met Gandalf on May 1, 3018. Continuing onward for about 150 miles, I then turn north-east and voyage about 300 miles. Where am I?

The Perky Ent · 03-14-2004, 01:13 PM

Angmar?

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-14-2004, 08:50 PM

nope

The Perky Ent · 03-14-2004, 09:43 PM

Erebor?

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-15-2004, 05:52 PM

No, again.

Firefoot · 03-15-2004, 06:03 PM

Mount Gundabad?

luthien-elvenprincess · 03-15-2004, 07:52 PM

No.
Hint: you can find where Aragorn and Gandalf met on 5/1/3018 in the chapter entitled 'Strider'.

Lindolirian · 03-15-2004, 08:05 PM

Rivendell. Taking the Greenway to Sarn Ford (the place of their meeting) and onward another 150 miles to Tharbad. Then northeast on the Greyflood/Hoarwell/Bruinen to Riven 300 miles away.
