Quote Game - Part 11 - Page 43

***Valandil*** · 02-28-2013, 11:47 PM

It was indeed not Bard.

Can someone name another bowman?

***Valandil*** · 03-06-2013, 09:11 AM

Nobody wants to play?

***Earniel*** · 03-06-2013, 05:24 PM

Oh people want to play alright, they just don't want to be the one stuck with posting a new quote.

I'll bite.

Beleg?

***Valandil*** · 03-06-2013, 07:11 PM

Beleg is correct! You're stuck!

. Oh, I mean "your turn!"

***Earniel*** · 03-07-2013, 05:42 PM

Well, I couldn't remember what the last quote I posted was, so I figured I was due getting stuck anyway.

Will try to have something up by Monday.

***Earniel*** · 03-10-2013, 06:23 AM

/_o_e_e_s/,/ _e_/ n_t/ _e_t_i_/."

A difficult one, I think. Lots of small words.

***Valandil*** · 03-10-2013, 08:11 AM

"From the shadow of death you can no longer save Lúthien,
for by her love she is now subject to it.
You can /_u_n/_r_m/_o_r/_a_e/_n_/l_a_/h_r/_n_o/_x_l_/,
/s_e_i_g/_e_c_/i_/v_i_/w_i_e/_o_r/_i_e/_a_t_/.
But if you will not /_e_y/ your doom, then either Lúthien,
/b_i_g/_o_s_k_n/, must assuredly die alone,
or she must with you /c_a_l_n_e/ the / f_t_/ that / l_e_/ before you -
/_o_e_e_s/,/ _e_/ n_t/ _e_t_i_/."

***Earniel*** · 03-11-2013, 06:49 AM

Not that difficult then.

Correct so far.

***Valandil*** · 03-11-2013, 07:49 AM

"From the shadow of death you can no longer save Lúthien,
for by her love she is now subject to it.
You can turn from your hate and lead her into exile,
seeking peace in vain while your life lasts.
But if you will not /_e_y/ your doom, then either Lúthien,
/b_i_g/_o_s_k_n/, must assuredly die alone,
or she must with you /c_a_l_n_e/ the / f_t_/ that / l_e_/ before you -
/_o_e_e_s/,/ _e_/ n_t/ _e_t_i_/."

***Varnafindë*** · 03-11-2013, 09:44 AM

turn from your fate

being forsaken
challenge the fate that lies before you -

***Valandil*** · 03-11-2013, 09:07 PM

I'll try those - and I have at least one other:

"From the shadow of death you can no longer save Lúthien,
for by her love she is now subject to it.
You can turn from your fate and lead her into exile,
seeking peace in vain while your life lasts.
But if you will not deny your doom, then either Lúthien,
being forsaken, must assuredly die alone,
or she must with you challenge the fate that lies before you -
hopeless, yet not certain."

Maybe I tried "hate" because the line before it had "love".

Speaker: don't know... Melian?

***Earniel*** · 03-12-2013, 06:00 AM

The quote is complete and correct but the speaker is not Melian.

***Valandil*** · 03-17-2013, 08:28 AM

I really don't know who the speaker is, but (to keep this game moving) embarrassing as it may become, I'll start tossing out names:

Mandos?

***Earniel*** · 03-17-2013, 09:10 AM

No, not Mandos.

I'll give a hint, this is one of the few time this speaker says anything in the story. Not a great talker.

***Valandil*** · 03-17-2013, 09:52 PM

Beleg? (I remember him from Turin, of course - but don't recall if he's part of the Beren-Luthien story)

***Earniel*** · 03-18-2013, 06:59 AM

No, not Beleg, I don't think he features in the story of Beren and Lúthien.

***Valandil*** · 03-18-2013, 06:18 PM

Finrod Felagund?

***Earniel*** · 03-19-2013, 07:17 AM

No, not Finrod. Unless it was Zombie Finrod, because he'd be dead by the time of this quote. Good of you to keep guessing, though.

***Valandil*** · 03-19-2013, 07:24 AM

Celeborn?

***Earniel*** · 03-19-2013, 12:14 PM

No, not Celeborn.

I think he had since long eloped with Galadriel.
