Thanks for the hint!

It was easy as soon as you said it was after they returned to the Shire.

Here it is:

Sam Gamgee married Rose Cotton in the Spring of 1420 (which was also famous for its weddings), and they came and lived at Bag End.

I hope this one isn't too hard. It sounds like it's from the Silmarillion, but it isn't. Here it is:

"And when will that time be? said Baldor. But no answer did he ever get. For the old man died in that hour and fell upon his face; and no other tidings of the ancient dwellers in the mountains have our folk ever learned.

It's from The Return of the King,

but if you need another hint, I'll give you the next sentence. Although that makes it a lot easier, it isn't a dead giveaway.

Good one!

I knew what they were speaking of, but it took me a while to find it.

"Yet maybe the time foretold has come, and Aragorn may pass." This is Theoden talking to Eomer.


new one coming...

This one isn't so hard, hopefully.

And so they stood on the walls of the city of Gondor, and a great wind rose and blew, and their hair, raven and golden, streamed out mingling in the air.

Re: new one

Tar Melian, Balthamos beat you to the answer, even if by just a matter of seconds. Even though your's is so much easier, I know exactly where it is.

Re: new one

Balthamos:
Let us see what Sting may show, answered Aragorn

Tar Melian:
And the Shadow departed, and the Sun was unveiled, and light lept forth; and the waters of Anduin shone like silver, and in all the houses of the City men sang for the joy that welled up in their hearts from what source they could not tell.

Next:
Yes, if she had naught else to say.

Re: new one

That is in "The White Rider", with Gandalf giving Galadriel's messages to Legolas and Gimli. Gimli says this after Legolas says "Would you have her speak openly of your death?" The next line is "'What is that?' said Gandalf, opening his eyes."

My quote is:
"'Day is near,' he whispered, as if Day was something that might overhear him and spring on him."

Wow! It's been a whole day waiting to get back on the board to give this answer! This is Legolas talking to Gimli, Merry, and Pippin in Minas Tirith...

"A wonder they are to me and a trouble to my heart."

New one:

"A fool, but an honest fool, you remain, Perigrin Took."

My quote:
'Aye, and what it knows!' said a second voice.

Re: Uncle!

Imagine this, I have to answer my own trivia questions
The next sentence is
Treebeard carried the hobbits in his arms as on the previous day.

Next:
I'll cut your throat.

It's also from the Two Towers.

Re: Uncle!

Sorry for not posting here, I've been gone for a week. Unfortunately I don't know what this one's from. Findaluin, why do you always make yours so hard? Harder isn't necessarily always better (in my opinion).
