NightKnight has just left Hobbiton.
But isn't the 33rd tengwa H?

Dark-Eye Mr. Nightknight:

I was referring to the name of the 33rd tengwa.

The name of the 33rd letter (h) is hyarmen. Is this the one you had in mind?
Is 'dead laughter' Lalaith?
This is one tough riddle. Me very confused...

Dark-Eye Aaaaah!!!

It should have been "36th tengwa", not "33rd". Major syntax error.

And yes, Ms. Evisse, Lalaith is the "dead laugher".

I think you're right, Urwen– if I understand how these puzzles work, which I'm not sure I do.

The question is, does Nilp himself remember what the answer was, after all this time?

I like rebuses, so I attempted this.

([named by shapeshifter] - [elvish noble] - stone) + ([where an unlikely pair ended their days] - island - g) + ([a jolly dancer] - [and anon]) + ([elvish winter] - ([blue water!?] - blue - R2)) + ([quenya for a hidden rock] - action! - song) = between a great one and an iron one in days past
