Seriously, I am all for posting more than one quote at a time... I love sitting there and solving quotes! ...

Go ahead and solve if you like Midge. It's alright. And it'll keep the game moving.

There just wasn't room in my luggage. It takes a person of extreme strength to go for so long... you'll find one almost needs a hobbit-like strength...

Had a message all typed out and the internet timed out on me.

Uno momento, gente. I'll get the quot-o up soon! I promise!

Okay. Here it is (I didn't realize I didn't post that part up there...)

"I came myself /_e_n/_t/_h_l_s/_n/_o_a_/,
but I have never /_r_s_e_/ it northwards.
When I was sent out as a messenger,
I passed through the Gap by the skirts of the White Mountains,
and crossed the Isen and the Greyflood into /_o_t_e_l_n_/.
A long and wearisome journey. Four hundred leagues I reckoned it,
and it took me many months; for I lost my horse at Tharbad,
at the /_o_d_n_/ of the Greyflood. After that /_o_r_e_/,
/a_d/_h_/r_a_/I/_a_e/_r_d_e_/ with this Company,
I do not much doubt that I shall find a /_a_/t_r_u_h/_o_a_/,
and /_a_g_r_/ too, if need be."

and the road I have trodden with this Company

Boromir is the speaker (who lost his horse at Tharbad).

Yes - that "I lost my horse at Tharbad" is such a memorable line. Sounds like it could come out of a western song.

"I have myself seen it..."?

Northerland is indeed the last word. What a strange word - possibly the ONLY time I've ever heard it.

Anyway, since the rest of the quote is correct and poor horseless Boromir is the speaker, it appears that it's your turn, Valandil!

Yes - I didn't really remember the word. I just sort of worked it out. And I tried once to enter it from my phone, but the phone replaced it with 'northland'. It seems like something JRRT would have a character say - and sort of uses English in a Germanic way. Also - Boromir, from the south, would naturally think of anything beyond the Isen as 'north'.
