yep, Mahatan, the smith.
Additional names for him from the Shiboleth of Feanor are Aulendur and Urendil. The source for the copper colored hair of some of the 7 brothers. |

I'm new to this thread, but here are some questions:
-What do the historians call the time of the hiding of Valinor? -What is the highest elven tower in Tirion called? -Who foretold the coming of Earendil? That's enough for today  |

Actually, Beren, this thread goes in turns... Meaning, after you answer a question correctly you ask the next question, and whoever answers your question answers the next, etc...
So I guess it's my turn. But I'll answer some of your question. 1. The tallest tower is called Mindon Eldalyeva (sp.), I think? 2. I think it was Ulmo? My question: Near what did Dior build his house in Ossiriand? |

Sorry I didn't know about the turns thing.
Mindon Eldalieva is correct But Huor foretold the coming of Earendil when he told Hurin on the day of Nirnaeth Arnoediad : "From you and me a star shall rise" As to your question, Radagast The Brown, I think he built it next to the tree that Luthien was once imprisoned on (can't remember its name  )Any guesses on the "Hiding of Valinor"? |

Rad: I think he built his place near the mound where Deneathor died back in the day. Not sure on the name, maybe haudh-en-Deneathor or somehting
Beren: I dont know

Oops. I mixed up Ossiriand and Doriath
Radagast, I think Dior built it next to the island where Beren nd Luthien lived after they came back. |

Oh, man, I am sorry, dude, hold on. Remember the green elves who fought with the orcs before the Noldor came down, and they fought across Ossirand, until finally they were surrounded on a hill by the river Gelan, or whatever the north-south river that constitutes the western border of Ossirand was, and the king there was Denethor, anyway, they were surrounded, and Thingol could send no aid, and they were slain. It is that mound I am thinking of. Sorry to be vague, I am affraid this is really no better.,

You mean, the ilsand Tol Galen, as Beren said; and the answer is wrong, that's where Luthien and Beren (the real
 ) lived, not Dior - he had his own house. |

Hmmmmm.... *thinking* What were you saying there? What's 'yield'? Why did you have to make it so complicated? *sigh*
 You're correct. |

The question is: What is Rathlóriel? And what is it's significance? Can you give both stories?
