You're right, you got one right and one wrong. Denethor is the right one.

One more to go...

Aragorn was said to look "fey" by Eowyn after he talked with her before going to the Paths of the Dead.

Evisse the Blue · 01-15-2005, 03:08 PM

That's correct!

I have no choice but to give both Lindo and Sophia one point each, since they gave me each half of what would make a correct answer. So,

Firefoot - 2
Sophia the Thunder Mistress -1
Lindolirian - 1

3. On what date fell the "Dawnless Day"?

Firefoot · 01-15-2005, 03:14 PM

March 10, 3019.

Evisse the Blue · 01-15-2005, 03:25 PM

Yep!

Firefoot - 3
Sophia the Thunder Mistress -1
Lindolirian - 1

4. What was the 'small oversight' that according to Gandalf, proved fatal?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-15-2005, 04:33 PM

Sauron failed to check that Thrain had nothing of value, and allowed the map and key to be passed to Gandalf.

Evisse the Blue · 01-16-2005, 05:39 AM

Yes.

Firefoot - 3
Sophia the Thunder Mistress - 2
Lindolirian - 1

5. Who was the last to be swallowed by the waves in Numenor?
