Oh, wait? S could be 'sable mole', from STABLE (where horses are kept) - T (for tea) + MOLE (for imitation, I guess, though it's used to denote spies, these days. Which they were, but I digress...

Per The Fall of Gondolin , there were in that city, and they all conveniently had their own symbols, emblems, colours, traits, and leaders. I decided I wanted to try another Full Set password.

Just 'Sable' actually; 'unadorned and imitative' refers to the fact that their black banner was identical to Morgoth's, which I believe is what we call "definitely a coincidence and not at all suspicious".

So the two houses left are the Pillar and the King, and yeah, these are the trickiest clues, because:

3: Note that this uses the second letter, which I'm very disappointed to have needed.

11. 'Look around' is just an anagram indicator. Focus on the next three words to find an anagrammed name with a Gondolin association, and then follow the rest of the clue.

Correct. 'To pen' is a synonym for 'to write', and Lot > Lod changes the stop consonant at the end.

Enerdhil?

Huinesoron · 06-20-2021, 03:52 PM

None of those. You are not looking for an anagram of 'three' (or 'three e).

Urwen · 06-20-2021, 04:35 PM

As for the dreamer bit, from his TG page:

Quote:

Many days after they passed Ireland the voyagers were exhausted. A "dreamlike death" seemed to come over them, and soon they passed out.

No and no.

The clue breaks down like this:

[Anagram of whatever is meant by [three directions threee]] + 'a spouse' = 'a dreamer'.

Given which House is left, the person constituting the final answer should be pretty easy to guess; it's just a matter of figuring out how I'm referring to them.

Urwen · 06-21-2021, 03:24 AM

The archaic meaning of 'SPOUSE' is 'WED', and I am thinking we should take away directions rather than add them. So 'WED' - 'W' = ED...

Either way, I think the answer is Earendil...

Earendil was in the House of the Wing, with his dad, which is already represented by Voronwe.

As to the other: you're overthinking it. Remember this:

[Anagram of whatever is meant by [three directions threee]] + 'a spouse' = 'a dreamer'.

'a spouse' is not part of the anagram or its instructions.

You are looking for letters to mix together. What does 'X directions' usually mean? What could the text 't h r e e e' possibly indicate?

And more importantly: how many named people are there in the House of the King? How many have an association with dreams? How could we get from them to someone beginning with E by thinking about spouses?

hS

Urwen · 06-21-2021, 04:27 AM

I don't even have the list of named people in the House of the King.

Tolkien Gateway doesn't provide it and the FoG book doesn't either.

In that case, he must have some unheard-of elvish name...cos I know who you mean, and his name doesn't even contain the letter E...

Urwen · 06-21-2021, 07:30 AM

And I've been blind. So, so blind. The answer was right there all along if you looked at it another way. You even told me one of those names is releavent, and I took it to mean one of those names is the answer. Once I realized that, and the fact that spouse could also mean 'husband', it all slid into place.

The answer is ELENWE'S HUSBAND, you sly dog, you.

And I've managed to make the full set too, with only one letter not being the first. So have at it!

1. An article, a broken container, a delay, and a preposition come together for him.
2. A direction precedes a musical instrument for him.
3. Headless argot and a preposition form him.
4. A preposition, a verb, and two directions form them.
5. A holiday and headless throws form them.
6. They're ghosts of unlight.
7. Reversed chromium is within a confused Disney bear. There he is.
8. An admirer. A murderer, cut in half? That's him.
9. A bilabial nasal, a vowel and a Vala make him up.
10. A heated metal stick is warped. He is revealed.
11. He is a band creator.
12. An insect, a verb and a note spin in circles for him.
13. Centers are muddled and vowel-less. They appear.
14. Twisted sword handle meets little mother; a robot with two directions moves in circles; there they are.
15. A medieval vehicle, a modern vehicle, to stop, are in a muddle for him.

An article, a broken container, a delay, and a preposition come together for him. 2. A direction precedes a musical instrument for him. 3. Headless argot and a preposition form him. 4. A preposition, a verb, and two directions form them. 5. A holiday and headless throws form them. 6. They're ghosts of unlight. 7. Reversed chromium is within a confused Disney bear. There he is. 8. An admirer. A murderer, cut in half? That's him. 9. A bilabial nasal, a vowel and a Vala make him up. 10. A heated metal stick is warped. He is revealed. 11. He is a band creator. 12. An insect, a verb and a note spin in circles for him. 13. Centers are muddled and vowel-less. They appear. 14. Twisted sword handle meets little mother; a robot with two directions moves in circles; there they are. 15. A medieval vehicle, a modern vehicle, to stop, are in a muddle for him. __________________ Tuor: Yeah, it was me who broke [Morleg's] arm. With a wrench. Specifically, this wrench.

Please hold while I change it. __________________ Tuor: Yeah, it was me who broke [Morleg's] arm. With a wrench. Specifically, this wrench. I am suffering from Maeglinomaniacal Maeglinophilia.
