Hint Me Here! - Page 6 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-20-2004, 03:10 PM

How about the elves of Lorien? Specifically, singing about Gandalf's death. Not sure about the one color, though.

Gil-Galad · 07-20-2004, 04:09 PM

Hint: First Age

Niluial · 07-20-2004, 05:32 PM

Maybe the Nazgul? They wore black cloaks with hoods yet beneath their bodies were invisible. Their song could be their screech? I’m probably very off.

Gil-Galad · 07-21-2004, 09:42 AM

Hint: look at last hint

drigel · 07-21-2004, 10:33 AM

The Green Elves of Ossiriand ??

Gil-Galad · 07-21-2004, 10:38 AM

must give reasons...

drigel · 07-21-2004, 02:08 PM

sorry im a newbie to this game

looks like fun though

unseen: secretive forest dwellers

one color: green - see above as to why

Singers of Joy and Doom: that was tough - a reference to Teleri in general? I dont remember the Laiquendi being exceptional speakers.... or mabye Lanthir Lamath?

Gil-Galad · 07-21-2004, 02:16 PM

The place where the Green-elves lived was called Lindon, Lindon meaning Land of Song, so the Ossirian are good singers, anyway you can go now

drigel · 07-21-2004, 02:32 PM

ok - good one! Lindon i always associated w/2nd and 3rd ages but your right!

my 1st attempt disclaimer - gonna be lame

Black, Cunning, star

drigel · 07-22-2004, 10:57 AM

black: color of the blade

malice\cunning: 'There is malice in this sword. The dark heart of the smith still dwells in it. It will not love the hand it serves; neither will it abide with you long.'
-Luthian

star: made f/metorite. could "cleave iron like dry wood"

awsome

Gil-Galad · 07-22-2004, 11:06 AM

Shining defense, Frozen Offense, Last of the High cursed

Fordim Hedgethistle · 07-22-2004, 11:40 AM

Gil-Galad · 07-22-2004, 11:41 AM

Hint: this character died

drigel · 07-22-2004, 12:05 PM

Frozen Offense - Aiglos Snowpoint?
Last of the High cursed - Last Noldor king?

The Perky Ent · 07-22-2004, 12:16 PM

Gil-Galad · 07-22-2004, 01:22 PM

this a toughy... Drigel didn't explain the first term to good...or spelled the name right... whoever gets here first, Drigel or Perky...

Shining defense referred to My SHining shield aganest Sauron

drigel · 07-22-2004, 01:44 PM

drigel · 07-22-2004, 01:54 PM

and a thousand apologies for your name, son of fingon

The Perky Ent · 07-22-2004, 03:51 PM

Thank you very much Drigel! Right, here's the next one:

Cold, tall, where spirits bodies remain

Gil-Galad · 07-22-2004, 04:04 PM

Carn Dum? or Angmar? maybe even teh Witch-King!?

The Perky Ent · 07-22-2004, 04:16 PM

No, No, and maybe...no

Try again!

drigel · 07-23-2004, 07:11 AM

Morsul the Dark · 07-23-2004, 09:18 AM
