No one has guessed mine. No more hints! Eärniel, Boromir?

Arathorn · 04-27-2002, 12:40 PM

Grima?

Elf Girl · 04-27-2002, 12:47 PM

Or the One Ring? (for Eärniel)

Strength beyond was thought,
Till evil was confronted,
and evil refuge sought.

Eärniel, Mordor?

All right, I will give you a complete translation of my riddle because I can't wait to see you struggle over my next one. Translation:

At first he/she/it/they thought this represented strength beyond what was possible and was merely a symbol. Then when he/she/it/they met evil, it turned out that this strength was had after all.

Menelvagor · 04-27-2002, 02:48 PM

a random guess for elf girl's : the eye of Sauron?

TinuvielChild · 04-27-2002, 03:00 PM

Earniel: Saruman?

Menelvagor · 04-27-2002, 03:02 PM

Oh yeah! *light goes on* I think your right TC.

TinuvielChild · 04-27-2002, 03:03 PM

Elf girl: Frodo/sam in Mordor?

Menelvagor · 04-27-2002, 03:09 PM

Um, Elfgirl: Gimli eating Lembas for the first time? (rather random

)

***Earniel*** · 04-28-2002, 07:23 AM

No correct answers yet. Pfiew it seems to last longer than I thought, hopefully I have enough time come up with a successor. Which doesn't mean you lot can stop guessing

Elf Girl: The phial of Galadriel?

Elf Girl · 04-28-2002, 01:35 PM

Nopenope. No one has guessed mine, but I will not give a hint. I gave you a complete translation, that ought to be enough! Eärniel, is yours the messanger that came to Dain from Mordor?

TinuvielChild · 04-28-2002, 03:28 PM

OH! Earniel, Smaug?

***Earniel*** · 04-28-2002, 03:49 PM

Congrats TC! You beat me again......
It'll take some time to come up with another one. Stay tuned

TinuvielChild · 04-28-2002, 04:01 PM

whoo-hoo! go me! i had to go back and analyze it line by line, and then i realized that it might not necessarily be in LotR, it might be from the Hobbit. we'll wait. and in the meantime, i might post one of my own. perhaps. we'll see.

Tanoliel · 04-28-2002, 06:16 PM

Congrats, TC! Hey, Elf Girl, is yours from Hobbit too?

Oh, wait, you aren't telling, are you...drat. Um...
EG: Something doing with the black riders?

btw, I am compiling these riddles....I can mostly get the riddles but I'm losing the answers sometimes. Anyone want to help by just checking it over when I'm done? Like a beta-reader...

-tano
ps. Hey, kashka, now I'm in TWO people's sigs! (Ah! How exciting!

)

***Earniel*** · 04-28-2002, 06:39 PM

Tano, I'll send you my own compilation if you want to. You can send me your compiled list as well. Whatever you prefer.

Elf Girl: Anduril?

TinuvielChild · 04-28-2002, 08:03 PM

tano- i know you're in Arathorn's sig, who else? i might be able to help with checking over the riddle compilation, ask me again when you're done.

TinuvielChild · 04-28-2002, 10:27 PM

oh-duh! you're in Menelvagor/Kashka's sig. *smacks forehead* sorry. i'm slow today
