Robin Smallburrow it is.

The 'w' is from 'will', and there are 3 'r's (burn or rob) and 3 'r's in Robin Smallburrow. So it should work.

Password, anyone?

The completed clues:

1. Gladden Fields - Cheery hideout stands before stretches of grass.
2. Robin Smallburrow - Confused Sam will burn or rob.
3. Araman - Half a judge follows Elvish noble in barren wasteland.
4. Luinil - Blue-shining star.
5. Woses - A lack of direction makes Wild Men miserable.
6. Nauglamir - Gift to Elvish leader causes his downfall.
7. Strawheads - Incomers precede heads with dried grass to mock thralls.
8. Aftercomers - Beginnings of a hobbit's departed uncle meet Elvish land, and are translated for men.
9. Andrath - Long Climb passed by Greenway.

Oops - you're right - well, that was a nice scramble, then.

Thanks!

Anyone going to venture a guess at this password? (Hint: look at the second letters in each word)

An earlier name for Irmo/Lórien?

Miriel · 03-30-2004, 10:33 AM

That would be correct.

Continue!
