Sam, looking at Sting in the tunnels of Shelob's Lair...oh darn, it's FOTR trivia, so that couldn't be it.
I'm stumped

Was it Gildor being asked about the Nazgûl by Frodo?

This sounds like something typically cryptic that Gandalf would say. Hmmmm.

It kind of sounds like something said because someone was looking at Sting and talking about the proximity of orcs...
Frodo, in Moria?

Well, "kind of" and "sounds like" don't cut it in the correct department.

Try, Try again because you have only another 24hrs before this question self-destructs.

While not the answer---and no, I'm not revealing it now; might want to use it again in the future it's was on the right track and so
I ask you, Curubethion, to post the next question.

Okay. The first chapter of FOTR was "A Long-Expected Party". What was the second chapter called? (Don't look it up if you can help it )
