Ok, I'm taking a guess as I haven't read that part of the Silm yet, but I'm guessing...

Melian, Thingol, Beren,

Then a lot of stuff would work for the last one:
Elwing, Elrond, Elros, Elladan, Elrohir, Arwen, and, a long time later, Aragorn.

If Ivorwen hadn't persuaded Dirhael to let their daugher marry Arathorn then Aragorn wouldn't have been born

If Gandalf hadn't invited Thorin for tea, the expedition might have never gotten a thief.

The last bit doesn't quite seem to clinch, though.

This looks cool, and i love giving life so...


*****REVIVE*****

The way this game works is you give a sentence with something blanked and someone has to give the answer in the blank

Example: Is ____ never found the ring, he wouldn't have 9 fingers.

The answer would be Frodo!

Looks good? Hope so! Anyways, here's the new question:

If Gondolin hadn't fallen, Frodo wouldn't of received _____.


Ask away! should be easy!

Thank you, Perky.

If Thorin hadn't spoken with ________, then ________ would not have fought at the Battle of Five Armies.

Should be fairly easy ...

True, I suppose, but not what I'm looking for.

I'll edit the question to make it a bit clearer ...

Doh! Another possibility, but not the one that I have in mind.

The first blank is not Gandalf. After all, it is quite likely that the Battle of Five Armies would not have taken place at all if Thorin had never spoken to Gandalf.
