As I answered in the other quiz were you also posted this question, Gil-Estel, meaning Star of hope.

Daniel Telcontar · 07-13-2002, 08:32 AM

I guess it is time for a new question:
Who helped Tuor getting to Gondolin?

obloquy · 07-14-2002, 12:51 PM

Voronwe.

Legolas · 07-21-2002, 01:52 PM

Of course...go on.

obloquy · 07-29-2002, 02:28 PM

Galvorn was used to make which two swords?

Daniel Telcontar · 07-29-2002, 02:37 PM

Are you thinking of Anglachel and Anguirel?

obloquy · 07-29-2002, 03:00 PM

Yerp. Go ahead.

Daniel Telcontar · 07-29-2002, 03:30 PM

Alright: Who was a warrior of Doriath and had in his caretake the Silmaril after Thingol's death?

Legolas · 07-29-2002, 04:42 PM

Hm...Mablung?

Daniel Telcontar · 07-30-2002, 06:16 AM

Yes, Mablung it is.

Legolas · 08-01-2002, 07:47 PM

How old was Earendil when the host of Morgoth came to Gondolin?

Lothiriel Silmarien · 08-01-2002, 09:04 PM

I think he was 5.

Legolas · 08-01-2002, 10:20 PM

Not quite.

Daniel Telcontar · 08-02-2002, 03:23 AM

I believe his age was 7.

Legolas · 08-02-2002, 08:29 AM

Seven is correct.

Quote:

At last, in the year when Eärendil was seven years old, Morgoth was ready, and he loosed upon Gondolin his Balrogs, and his Orcs, and his wolves; and with them came dragons of the brood of Glaurung, and they were become now many and terrible.

Daniel Telcontar · 08-02-2002, 03:10 PM

I will ask again, then: What jewelry of old was the most famous of old that the dwarves ever made?

Lindolirian · 08-02-2002, 03:44 PM

The Nauglamir.

Legolas · 08-12-2002, 11:38 AM

Daniel?

Lothiriel Silmarien · 08-13-2002, 10:55 AM

That was more than a week ago, should someone else go?

Mornie Alantie · 08-13-2002, 06:54 PM

Ill go,

How many ages was Melkor first locked up for?

Lindolirian · 08-13-2002, 09:06 PM

3

Orome · 08-13-2002, 09:35 PM

5. chained for 3, then released for the first age, then imprisoned for the second and third. if you count the fourth age, it makes 6

Lindolirian · 08-15-2002, 11:02 PM

ya but the question was first locked up for.

Orome · 08-16-2002, 08:28 PM

yup i missed that how long do you have to wait?

Lindolirian · 08-17-2002, 12:55 PM

When the asker confirms my answer as correct, then I can ask one of my one.

Orome · 08-18-2002, 02:46 PM

yeah what is the standard wait time though? this is a pretty good thread and i dont really want it to die like so many others have, waiting for comfirmation

Legolas · 08-19-2002, 01:32 PM

Lindolirian, just go ahead and proceed with the next question. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Lindolirian · 08-20-2002, 06:29 PM

Who taught the husband of Nerdanel the craft of making weapons?

Aranel · 08-20-2002, 06:45 PM

It was Mahtan.I think.

Lindolirian · 08-20-2002, 07:51 PM

Correct.

Aranel · 08-20-2002, 09:03 PM

Okay.What does Mereth Aderthad mean?

Telchar · 08-21-2002, 12:16 AM

'The feast of reuniting'

Anardil · 08-22-2002, 02:00 PM

Just a note. I don't think that it was Mahtan who taught Feanor how to make weapons. On the contrary, the Silmarillion states that "bitterly did Mahtan rue the day when he taught to the husband of Nerdanel all the lore of metalwork", which suggests that he was very unhappy about the weapons. Rather, it was Melkor who first spoke to the Elves (and Feanor) concerning weapons.

Telchar · 10-23-2002, 02:17 AM

Need to get this going again, so.... Who killed The White Lady of the Noldor? and how?

HerenIstarion · 10-23-2002, 05:29 AM

Eol did, with a poisoned dart/javelin

Telchar · 10-24-2002, 02:39 AM

Yeps HI - proceed, please

HerenIstarion · 10-24-2002, 05:51 AM

what did Tuor leave in Vinyamar when he headed to Gondolin with Voronwë?

[ October 24, 2002: Message edited by: HerenIstarion ]

Telchar · 10-25-2002, 04:20 AM

His spear - upon which his name was written - as a token that he had been there.

HerenIstarion · 10-25-2002, 04:58 AM

correct

Telchar · 10-25-2002, 04:11 PM

The timber that was used to build Vingilot - what forrest was it hewn from?
