***Earniel*** · 05-16-2007, 03:12 PM

All is correct except for 'walls' and 'higher'. I'm impressed you found Crissaegrim so soon.

Count Comfect · 05-16-2007, 03:13 PM

halls, and

***Earniel*** · 05-16-2007, 03:44 PM

And, yes. Halls, no.

***Valandil*** · 05-16-2007, 10:27 PM

"Short is the sight of mortal men! I see the _a_l_s of the Crissaegrim; and they are rowing hither. Watch a while!"

Midge · 05-16-2007, 10:58 PM

I was going to guess "malls" but then I saw it was a typo...

***Earniel*** · 05-17-2007, 06:22 AM

'rowing' is incorrect.

The Gaffer · 05-17-2007, 06:26 AM

Vaults? Coming?

***Valandil*** · 05-17-2007, 06:27 AM

Ah... "eagles" and "coming"... was it Voronwe?

***Earniel*** · 05-17-2007, 06:41 AM

Correct! Your turn, Oh High King!

Sorry for the delay - first time I tried to post, the server problems were cropping up, then came the weekend...

For some reason the first sentence leapt out at me:

"No! Trolls do not build. No one lives in this land. Men once dwelt here, ages ago; but none remain now. They became an evil people, as legends tell, for they fell under the shadow of Angmar. But all were destroyed in the war that brought the North Kingdom to its end. But that is now so long ago that the hills have forgotten them, though a shadow still lies on the land."

All correct Gaffer - your turn!

The Gaffer · 05-21-2007, 06:41 PM

Mon then, you can do better than that young fella me lad.

Butterbeer · 05-21-2007, 07:27 PM

well, is it right or wrong?

Answer the question LADDIE! Or don't post the F'in question.

***Valandil*** · 05-21-2007, 11:09 PM

What's this BB? You want to be as lazy as you please, but not allow the other guy any slacking?

I say a lazy try,
Deserves a lazy reply!

***Valandil*** · 05-21-2007, 11:24 PM

Meantime, I'll may a try of my own:

"All the lot of your help is full of /t_n_e_s/_a_k_d/ with phases of good and /s_l_e_,/a_d _o_l_,/ by what I've heard."

... though I'm reasonably sure those words don't ALL belong - I'm just not certain which ones do, and which ones don't.

Midge · 05-22-2007, 12:05 AM

All the top of your hill is full of tunnels packed with chests of gold and silver AND jools, by what I've heard...
