"Two Towers" Trivia - Page 30

Nanedhel · 09-20-2004, 10:16 PM

Frodo was alive, but taken by the enemy? (roughly)

Halbarad of the Dunedain · 09-24-2004, 01:32 AM

I checked Nenedhel and that is correct. Its your go...

ethuiliel · 09-24-2004, 06:33 PM

I thought I had replied

. Yeah, it's right.

Nanedhel · 09-24-2004, 06:34 PM

What stands guard over the Fords of Isen?

Halbarad of the Dunedain · 09-25-2004, 02:43 AM

Guard, Isen? Isenguard? Orthanc? hehe.

Nanedhel · 10-02-2004, 04:48 PM

I am afraid I am not quite that clever of a trivia question-maker. I am looking for something taken more literally from the book.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 10-02-2004, 04:53 PM

The White Hand?

Nanedhel · 10-03-2004, 09:14 PM

Nope. It appeared after the fall of Isengard, and is not associated with Saruman.

Halbarad of the Dunedain · 10-04-2004, 12:00 AM

The Ents and the Hurons?

Rosie Gamgee · 10-04-2004, 04:01 PM

How about.... oh, wasn't there a mound of dead people or orcs or something at the Fords of Isen? Or was that another river? Argh, I don't remember.

Halbarad of the Dunedain · 10-04-2004, 11:29 PM

I'm pretty sure that you are right Rosie, I think I just read that in the Two Towers. Something about a mound of riders that fell at the battles of the fords.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 10-05-2004, 03:06 AM

Where Theodred fell.

Nanedhel · 10-05-2004, 08:09 PM

Rosie Gamgee has it. It is the grave of the fallen that was left as a guard at the Fords of Isen.

Rosie Gamgee · 10-14-2004, 12:48 PM

Oops. Sorry I haven't posted in here. Um..... Someone else may ask a question. I'm so horrible at keeping up on these threads. I'm sorry.

mallondwen · 10-14-2004, 02:16 PM

*sneaks out of the shadows and says softly* I think I have one, though it is quite easy:

what is Legolas' response when Gimli says of the Aglarond,

"Strange are the ways of Men, Legolas! Here they have one of the marvels of the Northern World, and what do they say of it? Caves, they say! Caves! Holes to fly to in time of war, to store fodder in! My good Legolas, do you know that the caverns of Helm's Deep are vast and beautiful? There would be an endless pilgrimage of Dwarves, merely to gaze at them, if such things were known to be. Aye indeed, they would pay pure gold for a brief glance!"

Telcontar_Dunedain · 10-14-2004, 02:21 PM

And I would pay gold to be excused.

mallondwen · 10-14-2004, 04:17 PM

correct, your turn Telcontar_Dunedain

Telcontar_Dunedain · 10-14-2004, 04:24 PM

What name was given to Gandalf by Wormtounge in Edoras?

Rosie Gamgee · 10-14-2004, 04:41 PM

lath spell... I know I'm spelling it wrong. It means 'Ill-news', I think. I don't know.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 10-14-2004, 04:47 PM

That is it. Your go Rosie Gamgee.
