Does FEDHIN mean hero, or something?
Is it First Age heroes? |
"fedhin*
"adjective.*ally, friend, bound by agreement, bound by agreement, ally, friend, friend, ally" Ah, ok. Are they pairs of allies ... pairs bound by an agreement of friendship? |
Quote:
Not pairs, trios. |
I wanted to use Finrod and Beren in a password cos I had their awesome dynamic in mind for quite a while now, but no word fit, until I found Fedhin. :smokin:
|
Great idea!
Tell me who the trios are. I'm not as good as you on the First Age. New password tomorrow. It's at work. |
Finrod+Beren+Edrahil, and Hurin+Huor+Turgon
|
But.....are you always at work? You were at work when it was morning for me, and you're at work when it is evening for me, which is kinda weird, since most jobs have only one shift..... Is there a time when you're not at work?
|
No. I solved your password at home, but my two prepared passwords are on my laptop, and *that* is at work, in my cupboard. I take it in at the beginning of the week, and bring it home at the end. Because I need it at work but don't want to carry it home every day.

For 1, are we looking for a particular species of fish or just a synonym for fish?

A kind of fish.

Is there a place called Thinbor?
|
No. You need synonyms.
|
Rob= Mug?
Thin = Slim/Gaunt? |
2. Aros (Sarai-Ai + O)

Quote:
Mug is wrong. Aros is wrong. |
Theme is the places unseen/unvisited by people in brackets.

I looked, and nothing seems to fit both words.....
