I'm afraid not.

TC, Moria?

***Earniel*** · 04-21-2002, 03:18 PM

Are my guesses so poorly that I'm named poor too in the process?

I think they're just baffled and speechless by your nasty riddle, TC! Give them some time to catch their breath.

Elf Girl · 04-21-2002, 03:21 PM

Indeed we are baffled! Here's a hint for mine: "fallen blood" could mean more than the blood falling. *air is blessedly free of hint alarm*

***Earniel*** · 04-21-2002, 03:25 PM

Elf Girl:The Noldor being banished after the kinslaying?

TC: Arwen becoming mortal?

Nope. Next hint: the blood is blood, but "fallen" has a double meaning in this case.

***Earniel*** · 04-21-2002, 03:32 PM

Elf Girl: the throwing of Maeglin of the walls of Gondolin?

TinuvielChild · 04-21-2002, 03:37 PM

YAY!!!!!!!!!! GO EARNIEL!!!!!! you rock, chica! yup, it was Arwen falling in love with Aragorn and becoming mortal!

***Earniel*** · 04-21-2002, 03:53 PM

*baffled look* see my mouth falling open. (oh wait no webcam) I got it? It was a total random guess though. But I got it!!! WOOOHOOO!!!! Very though one, TC and VERY cryptic!

TinuvielChild · 04-21-2002, 04:04 PM

all my others were WAAAY too easy, so i figured a hard one was in order.

i'm happy someone guessed it tho. should i post another one? i'm shooting for somewhere between the two extremes that i have now gone too: too metaphorical and too obvious. go me!

Menelvagor · 04-21-2002, 04:22 PM

Go Earniel! Post another one TC, and make it a hard one!

Elf girl: Wormtongue? 'fallen blood' kinda makes me think of impure bloodlines or the waining of Gondor... Denethor?

Elf Girl · 04-21-2002, 04:33 PM

Eärniel's: A guard in a dark place
A remnant of an old age
Has left name, has left face
Forever in a stony cage

Elf Girl's: Foul,
Protects the good,
Is cast away,
After fallen blood.

No one has guessed mine so far. Eärniel, I take it your's wasn't Moria? If not, is it the statue at the crossroads?

Hint for mine: Foul, think Mordor. *everyone else's hint alarm on the moot goes off* Dang! These things are getting more and more sensetive! *sigh* Technology...

TinuvielChild · 04-21-2002, 04:44 PM

Earniel: the Balrog in Moria?

Elf Girl: is it some of the Orcish stuff that Frodo and Sam picked up in Cirith Ungol?

working on a new one, give me a day or so.

Menelvagor · 04-21-2002, 04:48 PM

Elf Girl" the Moranon? The Towers of the Teeth?

***Earniel*** · 04-21-2002, 04:48 PM

It's neither Moria or the Balrog.

I think you're right on Elf Girl's riddle TC, I was thinking of that too.

Post TC POST MORE RIDDLES!!!

Eärniel the addict

Elf Girl · 04-21-2002, 04:50 PM

You guessed, TC! All you people are getting too good...

Here's another:

Wrongful flame,
Heated by despair,
Causing pain,
For strong, proud, heir.

Easy. I need some time to think of a really hard one, like the "accursed eagle thingie", as someone put it.

Menelvagor · 04-21-2002, 04:54 PM

Good job TC! Boy, I need to sharpen my riddling skills...

Um, for Elf Girl's new one: Boromir? Faramir?

Elf Girl · 04-21-2002, 04:59 PM

Nope, nope, both close. I'm working on a toughy...

Menelvagor · 04-21-2002, 05:02 PM

Denethor?

***Earniel*** · 04-21-2002, 05:03 PM

Elf Girl: is it the ring causing Isildur pain?

I've made a short survey of this thread:

Elf Girl posted most riddles: 10
Second place goes to F.B.B. with 8 (where did he go anyway?)
Thrid place is shared between me and TC: 6

BoP guessed the most right answers: I counted 8!
Second place is ME! (5 answers)
And a very close third is Menelvagor (4 answers)

Ha! We sure would send Gollum howling in fear! Good job everyone!
