Those answers are both acceptable, but I kinda like the first one better.


You're up.

Thanks! Let's move on from your favourite character to one of my bizarre obsessions: the Witch-Queen of Numenor theory (using the term 'theory' loosely).

Tar-Telperien -> The Witch-King of Angmar

Without going through Sauron, I can do it in six solid steps, or five with an assumption in the middle. Perhaps you can do better!

And as a bonus round of sorts, the one I can't get below 8: Tal-Elmar (of Tal-Elmar) to Borlas (of The New Shadow). Would love to see any solutions that use less names, even if they don't hit 6 and qualify for this game.

Okay, Ill give it a crack.

1. Tar-Telperien was the mother of
2. Tar-Minastir, who came to the aid of
3. Gil-Galad, whose other sub-commander in that war was
4. Elrond, in whose house dwelt
5. Glorfindel, who at Fornost routed and prophesied the destruction of
6. The Witch-King

(If one assumes Glorfindel was already present and was one of G-G's generals, we can skip Elrond)

Alternative:

3. Gil-Galad, who received two Rings from
4. Celebrimbor, who also made the Ring of the
5. Witch-King

That's the one I got, sure enough (though I believe Minastir was her nephew, not her son), including the 'can we assume Glorfindel met Gil-Galad' potential shortcut.

Over to you, William!

All right:

SAURON -> LEGOLAS, without using ANY members of the Fellowship or Council of Elrond.

Well, Gil-galad > Oropher is a bit more distant than I had in mind. Just a graham cracker.

It's not that distant - weren't they both commanders in the Last Alliance?

Of course, there's always this:

Sauron > Mouth of Sauron > Legolas.

Legolas is present at the parley, though he doesn't speak. (Similarly, Sauron > One of the Nazgul > Legolas, who shot at it.)

But I doubt that's what you're thinking of.

Sauron > Galadriel > Legolas?

At Dol Guldur and Lorien, respectively.

I'm not too clear on what the aim of the game in this thread is. Are we trying to find the exact solution the question-setter thought of? Are we hunting for as many answers as possible? Or are we after the shortest answer? It's all a bit vague, it's driving me batty.

(I've been mostly assuming some form of 'match or beat the length specified by the setter', for the record, with the caveat that cheeky/sneaky answers may meet a reply of 'clever, but can you also do it properly?')

For a more serious answer...

1. Sauron captured and tortured
2. Thrain, who was the father of
3. Thorin, who was imprisoned by
4. Thranduil, who was the father of
5. Legolas.

Oh wait, you said no parent-child sets. Hrm. Let's try:

1. Sauron tortured
2. Gollum, who clearly had an encounter with
3. Grishnakh, who argued with
4. Ugluk, who duelled with
5. Eomer, who shortly thereafter met
6. Legolas.

Unless 'he says 'precious' a lot and has a bad cough' is valuable information for the spies of Mordor, I think it's clear Grishnakh and Gollum have met.

I'm pretty sure G did- but then, so did Ugluk! Although it appears nowhere in published writings, in his time-schemes Tolkien wrote that Gollum, while lurking outside Lorien waiting for the Company to emerge, was captured and questioned by Ugluk's team from Isengard (Saruman had been alerted by messengers from Moria that the Coy had passed through).

Anyway, I'll call that a win, although what I had in mind was a bit more roundabout:

1. Sauron was a Maia of
2. Aule, who was married to
3. Yavanna, who obliged Saruman to bring along
4. Radagast, who sent out
5. Gwaihir, who was spotted by
6. Legolas

That is certainly roundabout.

So let's try this: the forced marriage pair.

Tar-Miriel > Aredhel

... without going through any Dark Lords.

I can do it in six, but I'm sure it can be done quicker.

I am going to use some assumptions here, if you don't mind.


Tar-Miriel - Elendil - Gil-Galad - Fingon - Aredhel

Looks good to me! I'd forgotten the GG-Fingon connection, so my version went Gil-Galad > Earendil > Idril > Aredhel, so well done.

Over to you!

There's always the 'opposite assumption' version passing through Gil-Galad son of Orodreth, but I'd like to go for something a bit more subtle, so:

1. Turin was fostered by
2. Thingol, who travelled to Aman with
3. Ingwe, who sits at the feet of
4. Manwe, who sent forth the
5. Eagles of Manwe, which were seen by
6. Tar-Miriel as they flew over Numenor.

How's that?

Thanks. Can I ask what your solution was?

And, in honour of your guess from the Bad Guys thread:

Huan > Bereg

(Note that's Bereg of House Beor.)

I can definitely do this in 6, but I'll be interested to see the routes others take.

I can do it like this

Huan - Celegorm - Meadhros - Amlach - Bereg

Or if you want it longer, I can do that too.

Nope, that's good. I went Huan > Carcharoth > Morgoth > Morgoth's emmisary > Amlach > Bereg, but yours is much tidier (and shorter is always better!).

No, no, we can do this. How about:

1. Glaurung the Golden, while young, was shot at by
2. Fingon, who was best chums with
3. Maedhros, who with his brother found the young
4. Elrond, who went volcano-spelunking with
5. Isildur, who had the guards set on him by
6. Ar-Pharazon the Golden, prospective immortal.

That last step is the only one I'm dubious about; I'm not sure Golden Boy was directly involved. (I think it's from The Lost Road; Isildur's trying to rescue a fruit of the White Tree.)

You know what the problem with this thread is? Too many nobles. We need a bit more representation from the commons.

Rosie Cotton > Nellas of Doriath

I can do this in six. What I haven't yet managed is the bonus challenge: to do it without passing through anyone who held the title of 'king'.

I am assuming that Nienna and Tulkas have met

And there we go. I knew someone would do it!

I'd managed to forget about the Galadriel-Melian connection, so my best was Rosie-Sam-Galadriel-Orodreth-Turin-Nellas, which obviously runs through a king. So over to you!
