Hrm... I saw in the Very Easy Trivia thread that you have not read UT. It is in there. I'll give you a hint though... Hallas was the son of Cirion. That probably won't give you much unless you know what Cirion did... Sorry, I don't want to give away too much.

Well Russandol, it's only been two days, but the Quiz Room is a bit more active than it was in the days of Mat_Heathertoes. Friendly reminder to keep up on your threads!

They all have a name which someone else has also.

e.g
Denethor -> Son of Lenwë
Denethor -> Father of Boromir and Faramir.
