You still haven't mentioned the most famous forest ever.

But FANGORN doesn't need to turn to produce a 'him.'

Unless we turn it to inch towards ARAGORN.

Urwen · 05-24-2021, 02:55 AM

Um, Lothlorien?

Pervinca Took · 05-24-2021, 06:01 AM

Well, there's LORIEN, but you can get the Vala from the wood without turning it.

Unless we start with Dwimordene.

Pervinca Took · 05-24-2021, 12:34 PM

Is the password LEADER?

With 5 ERIOL from Lorien.

Urwen · 05-24-2021, 05:27 PM

Nope.

Huinesoron · 05-25-2021, 06:57 AM

Is #6 just LORD OF THE RING(S) - ie, boss of one or more bands of metal?

Pervinca Took · 05-25-2021, 11:42 AM

DEAGOL for the password, with all the answers Ringbearers?

4. LO + GLUM = GOLLUM.

5. OLORIN from LORIEN. The E becomes another O.

1. DAUR, from RUDE, with the E exchanged for an A. A name for Frodo.

Urwen · 05-28-2021, 03:37 AM

DAUR: Is he rude, or in turmoil? One vowel becomes another.
ELROND: Um...he makes a gesture of approval, with direction. Twist it.

GOLLUM: Behold, he is sad! Or maybe troubled by what he did.
OLORIN: A forest turns, and exchanges a sound, for him.
LORD OF THE RINGS: Band boss in medieval lingo.

And over to Pervinca.

Nice one, Urwen!

1. Additional little woman under the weather, they say? See him!

Huinesoron · 06-02-2021, 05:39 AM

Taken straight, #8 could be about Mirkwood; it shares that name (in Sindarin) with the woods of Dorthonion, which were first burned and then destroyed; but by other names it is noted for its greenness, as GREENWOOD THE GREAT or ERYN LASGALEN. (Th'ain't nobody called it "the Wood of Green Leaves"; the Elves used the Sindarin and you know mortals just called it Mirkwood still.)

For some reason I thought the M Little woman was Mary, and looking them up and realizing she's actually Meg made all the difference, because MORE + MEG + ILL (ish) = MORMEGIL.

It might be Saruman but Joseph is correct no matter what your original intent was.

MORMEGIL: Additional little woman under the weather, they say? See him!

Grammatical error corrected in Clue 3. It occurred because I had no internet and had to retype the clues on my phone.

Urwen · 06-06-2021, 06:46 AM

So the one with destructive, burning issues is either Feanor or Orodruin, aka Mount Doom.

Neither of these.

It is a person, though.

Huinesoron · 06-07-2021, 05:06 AM

#9: I think this is EYE OF SAURON. The 'survivor song' is Eye of the Tiger, which becomes 'Eye of', and then takes Sauron as the dark wizard. An eye of course gives perspective.

Has anyone guessed TOM BOMBADIL for #2? "Bright blue his jacket is..."

Urwen · 06-07-2021, 05:01 PM

3. Radagast (ADA+STAG (+R from Er..))

And the password is MORE SHADES.

Urwen · 06-07-2021, 05:05 PM

And with that out of the way, 5 is Salvia, from VIALS+A

Urwen · 06-07-2021, 05:13 PM

And I'll take a stab for 7 too, with Aredhel (LEAD+???)

RADAGAST: Hear a sigh. A palindrome girl meets a confused, antlered creature to reveal him. (brown)

SALVIA: Her little bottles are in a terrible muddle. She's noted for that! (purple)

7. Foreign gunshots mingle for her?
DENETHOR: Verdant namesake of one with destructive, burning issues. (green)
EYE OF SAURON: Survivor song loses article and beast; add a dark wizard for perspective.(yellow)
S Man in the moon's rhyming pair of irregulars.

Aredhel is very, very close.

The R in Radagast is for a sigh that sounds like 'Ah!'

Urwen · 06-08-2021, 02:12 AM

So the password is not MORE SHADES?

How about MORE SHADED instead?

Sorry. I thought I'd put all the letters in. I have now. It's a throwback to the other 'colours' passwords I did, all inspired by Huey's brilliant RAINBOW one.

I was impressed that you got SALVIA, Urwen. Have you been trawling Shire family trees as well?

Urwen · 06-08-2021, 07:14 AM

You still haven't added A. And speaking of which, if Aredhel is close, then maybe Ar-Feiniel?

The only other possible solution that fits is ASPHODEL.

AR-FEINIEL (ALIEN FIRE).

Denethor is green because the 'other' one was one of the Laiquendi.

Remember there needs to be a colour association.

Hollin is red because it's derived from 'holly,' I believe, so red berries.

Urwen · 06-08-2021, 03:35 PM

Spoons are described as silver in the poem, so there is a color association...

(black) ORALD: The brightly-jacketed One. (blue) RADAGAST: Hear a sigh. A palindrome girl meets a confused, antlered creature to reveal him. (brown) ELVEN-EYES: Keen they are, and often the only indicators of age. (grey) SALVIA: Her little bottles are in a terrible muddle. She's noted for that! (purple) HOLLIN: Heavenly, loving nymphs initially mingle with grease here. (red) 7. Foreign gunshots mingle for her? DENETHOR: Verdant namesake of one with destructive, burning issues. (green) EYE OF SAURON: Survivor song loses article and beast; add a dark wizard for perspective.(yellow) S Man in the moon's rhyming pair of irregulars. Aredhel is very, very close. The R in Radagast is for a sigh that sounds like 'Ah!' __________________ "Sit by the firelight's glow; tell us an old tale we know.

Urwen Spirit of Nen Lalaith Join Date: Feb 2010 Location: Meneltarma Posts: 5,376	So the password is not MORE SHADES? How about MORE SHADED instead? __________________ Tuor: Yeah, it was me who broke [Morleg's] arm. With a wrench. Specifically, this wrench. I am suffering from Maeglinomaniacal Maeglinophilia.

Urwen Spirit of Nen Lalaith Join Date: Feb 2010 Location: Meneltarma Posts: 5,376	You still haven't added A. And speaking of which, if Aredhel is close, then maybe Ar-Feiniel? The only other possible solution that fits is ASPHODEL. __________________ Tuor: Yeah, it was me who broke [Morleg's] arm. With a wrench. Specifically, this wrench.
