That's why I didn't use him in my connection. Try again, but without him.

The hardest step is from Wormtongue to _________. Most people don't know that he met this person.

No, Voronwe got it right. Hers was the first correct one. What you were looking for wasn't correct, so it didn't work.

Old Took - Gandalf - Celeborn - Elmo

Celeborn was Elmo's great-nephew or something similar.

It's also stated that Celeborn was Elmo's grandson. Apparently JRRT never really decided on Celeborn's ancestry. Whatever his parentage, we can probably assume that Celeborn and Elmo met in Doriath anyway.

Ask away.

Try it in 4!

Ecthelion II -> Aragorn -> Legolas -> Ecthelion of the Fountains

Of course, Legoals has to play a dual role (Legolas of the Fellowship and Legolas of Gondolin). Is that allowed ...?

Oh, I thought you meant in four separations, not four people.

Ecthelion II-> Saruman-> Turgon-> Ecthelion of the Fountains.

And according to the rules, Elrond to Tuor would work since Tuor is Elrond's grandfather.

Curunir was a Maia of Aulë in Valinor, and Turgon, being of the Noldor who were friendly with Aulë and his people, I figured they might have met, cause it was quite a LONG time that was spent in Valinor, and with Curunir being such a cool guy, he must have gotten to know such another cool guy...

If you can't think of a better one then OK, but there is one much more plausible way, which involves definate meetings. Anyone???
