Well then, I suppose 'Paths of the Dead' would be quite out of the question?

Nothing does-there is not friday on the first of the month-cf. "Friday the 1st of Summerfilth" (or so I recall, I can't find the quote for some reason)

Quite right markedel. It's in a footnote in Appendix D. Unlikely events such as pigs flying and trees walking were said to happen on Friday the first.

Who was the first Numenorian to revisit Middle Earth?

I've not read UT. I retire defeated, leaving the field clear for the experts...

I'm gone until Saturday. If it's not up by then...I'll answer it. But it's in UT. I promise.

I think markedel means "revisit" in the sense of travel to Middle Earth after the removal to Numenor, when that island was given to the Edain as a reward for their struggles against Morgoth. I don't he means the first individual to make the journey twice.
But surely one of your answers is correct and as markedel won't be back until Saturday why don't you post a new question?

You are probably right DoLC.
 Who was Galathil?

I thought that is what he meant as well, and I said "Bëor" but he said the answer was wrong, so either he doesn't know the answer or he meant something else by his question
