Midge - your words are mostly correct (including 'born') - the wrong words are 'there' and 'dally'.

Midge · 01-20-2008, 01:50 AM

"The/_o_e/_e_d/of/_a_t_/!/The/_a_s/are/d_r_e_i_g/before the storm/,
/and great things are to come/./If t_e_e/_w_/w_d/_o_/,
/hope may be born for our people/;/but if they d_l_y/,
/it will not come while this age lasts."

Sorry, just a recap b/c it's a new page!

Midge · 01-20-2008, 02:00 AM

these ... wed now? it makes no sense to me.

delay. That one took a while.

two.

It was Gilraen's mom to her dad... Don't rightly know their names.

***Valandil*** · 01-20-2008, 08:52 AM

Your additional words are correct.

Gilraen's mother was Ivorwen - and yes, she was the speaker. She's a little obscure, so I don't mind giving it (Hmmm... these may be her only recorded words!)

Incidentally, Gilraen's father was Dirhael.

Just five words left...

***Earniel*** · 01-20-2008, 08:56 AM

"The/_o_e/_e_d/of/_a_t_/!/The days are darkening before the storm, and great things are to come/. If these two wed now, hope may be born for our people; but if they delay, it will not come while this age lasts."

***Valandil*** · 01-20-2008, 09:13 AM

Earniel - 'days' and 'darkening' are correct adds - but Midge already had gotten the five later words you solved.

That leads three left to solve - all in the first sentence. And a rather non-entish sentence it is!

Count Comfect · 01-22-2008, 01:35 PM

"hope"

***Valandil*** · 01-23-2008, 08:16 AM

No CC - the 'hope' that comes later in the quote is solved, there's just the one. The second word of the quote is something else.

Count Comfect · 01-23-2008, 11:48 AM

I was trying to guess the unsolved bit, yes

.

How about "seed" for the third word?

***Valandil*** · 01-23-2008, 08:46 PM

Not 'seed', but a rhymer!

Midge · 01-24-2008, 04:05 PM

sore need?

***Valandil*** · 01-24-2008, 10:19 PM

'need' is right, but not 'sore'.

Two words left to solve.

***Earniel*** · 01-25-2008, 06:09 AM

More?

***Valandil*** · 01-25-2008, 08:07 AM

Yes - 'more'. One word left... the one which Ents are less than fond of...

Midge · 01-26-2008, 12:41 AM

"The more need of/_a_t_/! The days are darkening before the storm, and great things are to come. If these two wed now, hope may be born for our people; but if they delay, it will not come while this age lasts."

HASTE!!! Would never have figured it out except for your hint! That word was killin' me!

***Valandil*** · 01-26-2008, 08:18 AM

Correct Midge! Your turn.

Midge · 01-28-2008, 04:30 PM

_a_b_/ I /_o_d/_a_e/_e_t/_g_i_/ the /_o_/ of battle,

This is a toughie, Midget!
