Both of those are valid Sophia, but they're not what I had in mind. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Turgon - Thingol: Both their daughters married mortal men and they were both slain in the ruin of their Kingdoms.

Tuor - Aragorn: They both married the daughters of Elf Lords/Kings and had to perform certain tasks to end up marrying those daughters.

Emeldir - Dior: They both had to lead their people to a new place to "start over again." Emeldir had to flee over the mountains. Dior had to travel to Doriath to take over the throne of his grandfather.

They are the matching pairs I had in mind, though for slightly differing reasons:

Emeldir / Dior, for the reasons you stated and both their fathers were named Beren.

Tuor / Aragorn, both fostered by Elves and married the daughters' of Elven leaders.

Turgon / Thingol, both were slain and called "The Hidden King"

You matched the pairs and your reasons were just as good as mine....so your go. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I'm gonna have to say no. How do you know Firefoot wasn't a mearas. I think he was. And all of them were buried in Edoras (except Leod), and all of them were related to Folcred. So have more specific guesses.
