Silmaril

....except for ONE you mean.

May it be the Mouths of Sirion since Silmarils have never been there.


Quote:
Hmm.... And I'm even giving a subtle little hint...
And this hint you speak of...is it the icon that you did every post with regarding this question, the Star Emblem (which I did mine with). Was that meant to be an indication that the answer was indeed the Silmarils?

Of course, that's why it's "Odd PLACE out"

You are correct!

Thumbs up

Ok, but was my instinct correct regarding your suttle hint?

Imladris
Lorien
Minas Tirith
Fangorn

Yes, you were right about my hint.

Imladris in the only one not named after something or someone of the same name.

Other guesseses:

Minas Tirith because it isn't in close proximity to the Misty Mountains, or Fangorn, the only place where Men and Elves do not live. Also, Imladris is the only one on the Western side of the Misty Mountains.

No, none of them.

Think of their residents.

Fangorn is the only place where the residents are trees/ents!

It's also the only place where residents don't have elvish blood

Imladris is the only place where all the fellowship went together? (Oh thats not residents. Sorry)

Is there a hint in the fact that you're using Imladris instead of Rivendell?

Imladris is the only one where people of many races live. In Lorien, it's only elves, Fangorn, only Ents, and in Minas Tirith, only Men. In Rivendell, the Elves of course, at least one hobbit, and Aragorn used to live there.

Pelennor Fields: all have to do with ringed places (mountains and gate or walls and gate), except this one.

Gil-Galad: See the Quiz Room Rules

I posted the question on the 13th. The question was still be asked about on the 16th. You need to give it ten days according to the Rules. Trivia isn't the only thing learned in the quiz room. Patience is too.

O and by the way, I still need the right answer.
Hint: the person who has been to all these places but one, lives by the Sea.

I'm going to say Edoras. Cirdan is the only being I can think that lives by the Sea. He was at the Pellenor Fields and the Morannon during the last alliance. I'm just guessing that he was in Orthanc at some point for a wizard's counsel, maybe? And Dol Amroth is near to the Sea in Belfalas so why shouldn't he have stumbled by there at some point? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sorry it's all guesswork, but it's the best I can do.

AHA! I did not remember that Imrahil had gone to Edoras. So the answer most assuredly is Isengard for Imrahil has never been there. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Sirannon? The Ring never crossed it en route...
or because it's the only one that didn't flow anymore during the Great Years.
Baranduin? The only one with also a hobbit name (Brandywine).

Well, I just HAD to participate in this thread too though I haven't got the slightest idea what I'm doing... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Baranduin is the only one that has its source in a lake rather than coming from tributaries in the Misty Mountains.

Annunfuiniel, the Sirannon is the gate-stream of Moria, not the major river of West-Beleriand... that's the Sirion (sp)

I guess Nimrodel, because all the other rivers were 'ways' into danger.
Baranduin was towards the Old Forest.
Anduin towards Amon Hen
Sirannon towards Moria

All places where their was danger, but after Nimrodel comes Lorien and there was
no danger in that place.
