oh yes - then maybe 'here' for the other word?

EllethValatari · 02-10-2011, 10:09 PM

I'm sorry it's taking me so long to post-I'll be home from practice in about 15 minutes and will check your answer.

EllethValatari · 02-10-2011, 10:51 PM

Yes to all guesses, Valandil and CC! Your guess to speaker was correct as well, V. Your turn!

For/here/the/heirs/of/

in line long unbroken

Would that be "But ever" instead of "But even"?

***Valandil*** · 02-12-2011, 09:34 PM

Here is where we stand with what has been solved - and incorrect solutions returned to original quote form:

"But my /_o_e/, such as I have, is in the/_o_t_/.
For here the heirs of /_a_a_d_l/_a_e/ever/_w_l_/i_/l_n_/
l_n_/ unbroken from father unto son for many generations.
/_u_/ days have darkened, and we have dwindled;
But ever the sword has passed to a new /_e_p_r/.

***Earniel*** · 02-13-2011, 06:34 AM

"But my /_o_e/, such as I have, is in the/_o_t_/.
For here the heirs of Valandi have ever dwelt in long
line unbroken from father unto son for many generations.
/_u_/ days have darkened, and we have dwindled;

***Valandil*** · 02-13-2011, 08:51 AM

Adds are all correct. Looks like about 9 words and the speaker left to solve!

EllethValatari · 02-13-2011, 02:52 PM

My guesses bolded

"But my /_o_e/, such as I have, is in the/_o_t_/.

but days have darkened, and we have dwindled;

***Valandil*** · 02-13-2011, 03:29 PM

half right. 'keeper' and 'of' are correct. 'but' was already tried at the one place and is not correct there - and 'even' is not correct.

EllethValatari · 02-13-2011, 03:43 PM

Maybe 'our' then instead of 'but', and 'ever' instead of 'even'? And 'but' in between the two unsolved words.

***Valandil*** · 02-13-2011, 04:33 PM

Those three are all correct.

***Varnafindë*** · 02-13-2011, 06:38 PM

"But my /love/, such as I have, is in the/north/.

***Valandil*** · 02-13-2011, 07:59 PM

'north' is correct, but 'love' is not.

***Earniel*** · 02-13-2011, 08:48 PM

Home?

EllethValatari · 02-13-2011, 08:56 PM

hunters-but hunters even of the servants of the Enemy;

Aragorn?

***Valandil*** · 02-13-2011, 11:12 PM

'home' was right.

Elleth - your new words (and speaker) were right, which completed the quote. But it was 'ever' - not 'even' - as you already picked up a few posts back.

Your turn, Elleth!
