I wouldn't mind getting dragon teeth, they sound kind of neath. But I can see how the dwarves would not have thought them jewels indeed.

Will put a new quote up tomorrow.

***Earniel*** · 01-22-2011, 07:57 AM

"A_/l_s_/I/_n_e_s_a_d/_h_/w_/h_v_/w_i_e_/!/T_i_/i_/t_e/_n_i_g/.

***Valandil*** · 01-22-2011, 08:50 AM

"At last I understand why we have waited! This is the ending.
For not /_a_/o_l_/s_a_l/_e/_e_o_e_/, but /_i_h_/ too shall be beautiful and blessed and all its fears pass away!"

***Varnafindë*** · 01-22-2011, 10:47 AM

day only shall be beloved, but night

***Earniel*** · 01-22-2011, 12:17 PM

"For" is wrong, but all the rest is correct. So only one word and the speaker.

***Varnafindë*** · 01-22-2011, 06:15 PM

'Now' instead of 'for'.
And I recognize the quote, but cannot for the life of me remember where I recognize it from.
Should click eventually, though ...

***Valandil*** · 01-22-2011, 07:24 PM

It was Frodo who said it. On - or soon after - the wedding day of Arwen and Aragorn.

***Earniel*** · 01-23-2011, 06:26 AM

All correct. Your turn again, Val.

***Varnafindë*** · 01-25-2011, 06:21 AM

"went away to be destroyed" might perhaps be
"sent away to be destroyed"?

***Valandil*** · 01-25-2011, 08:51 AM

Good start Midge. I'll bold those words that are incorrect - and underline Varnafinde's change (which was correct):

"His /_o_b_/will be growing, even as he/_p_a_/here.
/His eye is now straining toward us,
/blind/_l_o_t/to all else that is moving.
/So we must keep it. Therein lies all our hope.
This, then is my/_o_n_e_/./We have not the Ring.
/It/w_s_o_/o_/great/_o_l_/in his/_e_n/sent away to be destroyed/,
/l_s_/i_/d_s_r_y/_s/./Without it we cannot be/f_r_e/_e_e_t/_i_/f_r_e/.
/But we must at all/_o_t_/keep his eye from his/_r_e/_e_i_/.

***Varnafindë*** · 01-25-2011, 12:05 PM

even as we speak here.

In wisdom or great folly it has been sent away to be destroyed,
lest it destroy us. Without it we cannot by force detect his force.
But we must at all costs

***Valandil*** · 01-25-2011, 02:23 PM

And now... for a rhyming rhesponse...

adds correct,
except 'detect'.

***Varnafindë*** · 01-25-2011, 05:53 PM

reject?
I'm not sure it makes sense, but then again nor did detect

***Valandil*** · 01-25-2011, 08:54 PM

No - not 'reject' either.

I believe we have 6 words and the speaker left to solve...

***Varnafindë*** · 01-25-2011, 11:23 PM

"His /_o_b_/will be growing, even as we speak here.

***Valandil*** · 01-26-2011, 01:09 AM

'defeat' is right! Five more words and a speaker.

Taniquetil · 01-26-2011, 04:30 PM

this then is my counsel?

***Valandil*** · 01-26-2011, 09:10 PM

Yes - 'counsel' is correct.
