I'm not good in writing riddles. You are. write some, instead of asking from people to.

Keith K: Smoking weed?
Elf Girl: I'm pretty sure it's Cirdan, but Christiana got it first.

Yeah, ElfGirl must be thinking of Cirdan. He gets my guess too. Last edited by Keith K : 04-12-2003 at 03:17 AM. |

"Beginning light" refers to the fact that he was one of the "original" Elves, that awoke at Cuivenen (how do you spell that!). "bearded might" signifies both that he is powerful and the only known elf to have a beard. "gives to the wise/elven eyes" is about the gift of Narya to Gandalf.

Riddle!
I've got a riddle for you! I am not sure if it ties in with what we are talking about, but I guess I can start a new subject. Ok:
Poor people have it Rich people need it And if you eat it, you die? What is it?

That is why I said it doesn't tie in with the subject but try it anyway.

Ok
It actually can tie in with LotR. Nevermind. The answer was NOTHING. Do you know any LotR-related riddles?

A NEW RIDDLE
A new riddle for y'all....
Riddle #1: Upon a bier of elven wood the Numenorian lay. A peacful face with long dark hair upon his shoulders was arrayed. Grey hood and cloak pillowed his head, beside the steep isle glowing. His shattered sword upon his lap, the hilts and shards lay broken. His journey home through golden haze, in the southern distance shimmering. A dark spot against the golden light moving rapidly then vanishing. Long days would pass for tidings to come to loved ones who only could wait; What evil fate on this unhappy day occured in the woods about the lake? Last edited by Keith K : 08-21-2003 at 02:38 PM. |

New Riddle #2:
Short-statured, long-armed, crook-legged, finger-groper. Yellow-fanged, foul-breathed, soft-spoken, evil-talker. Lugburz-slave, Nazgul-fane. Ring-lust, spear-thrust was his bane. Last edited by Keith K : 08-22-2003 at 12:30 PM. |

Riddle #1: The guy the riddle's about would be Boromir? And the question the riddle's asking (what happened) would be the battle on Amon Hen?
Riddle #2: Grishnagk (oh those darn orc names; who can spell 'em)?

Another Riddle
There are not many, who can render,
the facts from rumor in this riddle of gender. For few there are among that race, who move about from place to place. Their voices and looks, why even their dress, confuse other folk and cause all this mess. Your eyes and your ears may bring you to perceive, that they do not exist, (but you are deceived). In fact it is often that many are prone, to believe that these folk have grown out of stone! Yet that is but fiction, these creatures are real. So who are these people? That you must reveal. [editors note] I am looking for a very specific answer, but it shouldn't be too difficult for y'all. Last edited by Keith K : 08-22-2003 at 04:53 PM. |
