Yes!

Eruanna · 04-06-2003, 01:02 PM

Thanks...Here's my question:

Galadriel was her chosen Sindarin name, but what two other names (proper names not nicknames) had "The Lady of the Golden Wood" also been called?

[ April 06, 2003: Message edited by: Eruanna ]

Lord Elessar · 04-06-2003, 02:30 PM

well all the names i could find are:
Alatáriel, Artanis, Galadriel, Nerwen

all the names she has i think !

ps if i'm correct relinquish my right to ask a question since i'm not a frequent here!

Eruanna · 04-06-2003, 02:41 PM

That was quick!

Well done Lord Elessar (and welcome to the Downs [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] )

If you don't wish to pose a question then the floor is open.....

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-08-2003, 02:45 AM

I'll ask one [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Which two kings were slain by Gothmog?

alquadae · 04-08-2003, 03:50 AM

Azaghal
Bregolas

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-08-2003, 12:26 PM

Was Bregolas actually a king? *puzzled*
I should probably have said "two of the kings" not "the two kings" because there were more than two... Azaghal should certainly count.

Hm...

alquadae · 04-08-2003, 04:52 PM

Oops oops oops, Read The Full Question.
Get a little excited some times.
"Gothmog, Lord of Balrogs. High captian of Angband,slayer of Feanor,Fingon and Ecthelion."

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-08-2003, 05:46 PM

[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Now you can have it... I was thinking of Feanor and Fingon.

Sophia

alquadae · 04-08-2003, 06:29 PM

Thank you.
What is known as a "Dusk Singer"?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-11-2003, 07:11 PM

A nightingale... Lomelinde... I think?

alquadae · 04-12-2003, 05:20 AM

Yes Great!!

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-12-2003, 01:43 PM

Where did Nienor meet her brother Turin and not know him? (before they married each other?)

That's a hard question to word, if it's too confusing, tell me.

alquadae · 04-12-2003, 03:10 PM

Haud-en-elleth

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-13-2003, 12:55 PM

indeed [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] (you made me run for my books on that one... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] I was looking for the vaguer answer, Brethil)

alquadae · 04-14-2003, 06:07 PM

Thank you,btw Nice job on the" Sceptre of Annuminas",
Name Thingols reward to the Chieftan of the Dwarves of Belegost. "as great as a doves egg"

Eruanna · 04-14-2003, 06:45 PM

It was a great pearl, called Nimphelos. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

alquadae · 04-14-2003, 07:00 PM

Yes indeed, please carry on!!!

Eruanna · 04-14-2003, 07:18 PM

Which one of the Eldar was the first to meet men and by what name did they call him?

04-14-2003, 07:42 PM

Finrod Felagund, who was known as Nom the Wise.

Eruanna · 04-15-2003, 09:38 AM

Correct, Galadriel's Slave.

Which jagged precipice was the Dark Elf executed by being flung over?

Beren87 · 04-15-2003, 03:39 PM

Eöl was cast over Caragdûr.

04-15-2003, 07:44 PM

Yes indeed... go for it [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 04-15-2003, 07:53 PM

Allrighty.

What year [circa, anyway] did Thingol forbid the Sindar to speak Quenya?

Estanesse · 04-20-2003, 04:54 PM

It's Before the Dagor Aglareb(75 FA )
and after the Journey of Turgon and Finrod(50 FA)

So I guess that Thingol forbid the Sindar to speak Quenya circa 65 years First age

Beren87 · 04-21-2003, 11:23 PM

Good Job! Just when I thought I had made a difficult question too. Your turn.

Estanesse · 04-23-2003, 08:19 AM

Thank you.
How many Noldor High Kings were there in the first age and name them.

Lindolirian · 04-23-2003, 08:52 AM

If you are including the Years of the Trees in the First Age, then there are five. Finwë, Fëanor, Fingolfin, Fingon, and Erenion Gil-Galad. If you you are refering to the First Age counted from the first rising of the Sun, then there are three. Fingolfin, Fingon, and Gil-Galad.

Estanesse · 04-23-2003, 08:59 AM

I'm referring to the First Age counted from the first rising of the Sun,
but sorry your answer is not correct

Lindolirian · 04-23-2003, 09:07 AM

GASP!!! Being away from the books for 40 days has depleted my knowledge. I think I forgot Turgon. so.. FOUR!

gosh i think i'll die of humiliation if i get this wrong...

Estanesse · 04-23-2003, 09:19 AM

hehe your right of course [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

The floor is yours

Lindolirian · 04-23-2003, 09:28 AM

What was the name of the man who told Beleg of a man who saved his daughter?

Estanesse · 04-23-2003, 11:47 AM

Is it Larnach
But was it not Larnach’s daughter self who told about the man who saved her

[ April 23, 2003: Message edited by: Estanesse ]

Lindolirian · 04-23-2003, 04:01 PM

Technically yes, but I was going to say the guy who told Beleg about Turin's whereabouts, but I thought that was too easy...

Go for it.

Estanesse · 04-24-2003, 10:39 AM

Who decided who would be the first lord of Ladros and who was the first lord?

Lindolirian · 04-24-2003, 03:11 PM

Boromir was given Ladros by Fingolfin.

Estanesse · 04-24-2003, 03:29 PM

Sorry that’s not the right answer [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 04-24-2003, 10:33 PM

My my Lind., just not your day is it.

Actually, that's strange. You would think it would be given by the same elf who gave Dor-Lomin to Hador Lorindol, which would be Figolfin. [Both gifts are given in the same paragraph in The Silm]. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Finarfin.

Whatever the answer is, I'd like to know where you go it.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-24-2003, 11:16 PM

Ladros was given to Boromir by Finrod Felagund, I believe. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
