Shut the doors of the fortress and go not abroad. Cast the stones of your pride into the loud river, that the creeping evil may not find the gate.

Orodreth is quoting Ulmo

Guinevere · 06-08-2005, 02:37 PM

That's right, Mormegil. Well done!

mormegil · 06-08-2005, 08:28 PM

Okay this is my first time doing it from this end so I hope it's okay and let me know what I can do better.

Morwen to Húrin, at Túrin's grave . So sad!

mormegil · 06-09-2005, 02:43 PM

Very good Guinevere.

Now I would like some feedback on how I did.

It is very sad and of course I needed to include something from my namesake's life or death for my first try.

Guinevere · 06-10-2005, 01:13 PM

Thank you, Mormegil!

You first "Palantir" was perfect.
(If I had thought about it, your nick would actually have been a hint...

)
