Well, you didn't outright say no to Orodreth, so one of the three could be him.

I'd rather not give direct yes/nos to individual names, because you could easily just go through each one you've listed. I'll happily say whether a trio is correct, though. hS |

Remember that the 'rulers' line is part of a riddle with a specific answer. The three must, by the structure of the riddle, have a strong connection to a single, specific person-place-or-thing - and a stronger connection than any other possible 'rulers', too. (If you were looking for a Beren/Luthien or Turin link, for instance, I'd surely have included Morgoth in there.) hS |

Then I give up. Someone else can solve it, though I doubt anyone will. Your hints don't narrow it down much, if at all.

Wait, I just had a thought. Goldberry could be a ruler over stream, being the daughter of a River King.
