I am going to attempt to reanimate this game which has mouldered dead in the Barrow quite some time. I always thought that this was a fabulous game (not least because I invented it).

Cerin Amroth is to Elanor as the Barrowfield of Edoras is to ______?

Re: Analogies (again)

Elanor is the name given to the small golden-star flowers that grow on the Hill of Cerin Amroth. Likewise, Simbelmyne are the small white flowers that cover the mounds of the dead Kings of Rohan.

Re: Analogies (again)

You are taking the passage too literally, they are made of silma. What's silma? I don't know. Look under sil in the appendix.

Silima was the answer I was looking for...the actual material used to create them.

Re: Analogies (again)

the Rohirrim?
The Bree-men descend from Dunlendings, or rather, have Dunlending blood. Such is it with the Eorlingas whose ancestors lived in western Rhovanion.

I'll say Gondolin, because I don't think that Faramir of Gondor ever had anything to do with Nargothrond.

Faramir had a hidden fastness, that is like Nargothrond. Theoden mastered a land of horsemen, that is like Hithlum.???
