Neither the Southern Shore of Gondor, nor Ithilien.
Since we're on a different page, folks are trying to solve: In the shadows of night's edge, I brew a heady ale, Where dwelt once both Elves and Men, Now I never see a sail.

Neither was correct - but you're moving in the right direction... sort of.

It's not a country.
What do the words point you toward?

Nope.
Hint: involves water.

The Dead Marshes

Not the Dead Marshes.
The Brandywine is not exactly the answer... but IS referenced in the riddle itself.

Lake Evendim is partly encircled by the Mountains of Twilight, hence the "shadows of night's edge" - and is the source of the Baranduin / Brandywine, which the Shire Hobbits jokingly call "Bralda-him" - or "heady ale" due to it's brown color (very last part of Appendix F). Men lived there when Elendil made his capital city Annuminas on its shores, Elves had lived there previously - early in the second age, it was the home of Galadriel and Celeborn. The "sail" was to help tip you off that it was a mass of water (though I'm not sure it did much tipping).

That indeed was a very good one, Val. I guessed the Brandywine connection, but I didn't think about it to look at its source.
Beren, is the answer to your riddle perhaps Túrin?

No. Good guess though.
Hint: He is from Rohan.

Hi guys! Here's a riddle for y'all...
My leaves crack and break, when touched by a breeze. Slashed, stabbed, and burned; is this scion of trees. My story unfolds through many hands. Speaking the tongues of far distant lands. |
