Nope. Why would Bilbo refer to Erebor as "he"?

Well, since Eowyn killed his key minion, you're probably right, Arvedui III.

But, then again Eomer was among those at the Black Gate "diversion". So, just for the fun of it, I'll go with 'B'.

Do you mean related, besides being husband and wife? Because if so, I think the right answer is B.

Yes Evisse, I do mean besides being husband and wife, and yes, the answer is B. Good job.

Rosie and Sam are something like 6th cousins and technically brother and sister because their siblings (Marigold and Tom) married. Merry and Estella Bolger are also related, though, I don't think they've yet invented the words to describe exactly how.

Those silly, inbred hobbits.

No that was surely Cirdan. And he later entrusted this ring to Gandalf. This ring is known as the Ring of Fire

Heni, it was actually given to Gil-galad, who gave it to Cirdan.

Yes, it was Gil-Galad (if still not convinced, look in UT, History of Galadriel and Celeborn).
Sleepy, give us the next one.

Ring

I haven't got my books handy, but I have a feeling that Heni and Gil-Galad are correct. I thought that it was Vilya that was given originally to Gil-Galad (and passed by him to Elrond), wheras Narya was originally borne by Cirdan and passed by him to Gandalf.

Eye

None, as far as I know. Scatha, Glaurung and Smaug were all slain by Men, Ancalagon and his cronies were vanquished by Earendil, a Half-Elf, and the Eagles.

So I'd say A.

Well in that case should it maybe be C because Earendil was half elf.

Well I was thinking C. Since the Silm says he was counted among Elves. But Saucepan Man had a better answer. Whoever makes it first may answer.
