Gandalf?

Varda Oiolosseo · 09-09-2003, 04:53 PM

Yup

Over to you durin's bane.

LutraMage · 09-15-2003, 06:02 PM

Where's Durin's Bain got to?

Cirdan · 09-15-2003, 07:32 PM

Somebody may as well ask a question.

durin's bane · 09-15-2003, 07:57 PM

Sorry, I forgot I posted here.

Anyway, here's the question:

What did the Hobbits have for supper at Farmer Maggot's house?

Rosie Gamgee · 09-16-2003, 07:11 PM

Mushrooms!!

durin's bane · 09-18-2003, 09:19 PM

Yup, your turn!

Kirinki54 · 10-07-2003, 11:53 AM

This one looks like it is up for grabs!

What was the detail Aragorn changed in Bilbo´s song of Eärendil?

(Hope nobody asked this before...)

***Valandil*** · 10-07-2003, 11:58 AM

It was an EMERALD!

That is correct!

This is a nice link: http://www.thetolkienwiki.org/wiki.c...oldid=Elfstone

***Valandil*** · 10-07-2003, 04:30 PM

My Question... (asking is definitely harder)

OK - when do we first see Strider laugh?

Elvengirl · 10-07-2003, 06:03 PM

Hmmm total guess - in Rivendell?

***Valandil*** · 10-08-2003, 09:35 AM

No... but nice guess. Any other tries? Anyone else??

Alqualaure · 10-08-2003, 12:15 PM

Hoo, hom... how 'bout Bree?

***Valandil*** · 10-08-2003, 12:25 PM

Yes - I'll take that.

I was thinking of where Frodo admits that he thought a servant of the enemy would seem fairer and feel fouler. Aragorn laughs and remarks that he therefore must "feel fair and look foul"

Had to check the chapter though - and found two prior places where Aragorn laughs as he says something: first when replying to Sam's statement to the effect that perhaps he has good reason for spying and eavesdropping - and should perhaps explain it to them - and the second when he gives a "queer laugh" saying that it would be nice to be taken in for what he is.

Alqualaure - your question?

Alqualaure · 10-09-2003, 08:52 AM

Holy moly! I didn't actually consider I would be correct - just sort of tossed that one out there! LOL!

Alright, give me half a moment to come up with something!

(Be back shortly...)

Alqualaure · 10-09-2003, 09:38 AM

Okay, here goes nothing...

Who was Amroth?

Radagast The Brown · 10-09-2003, 03:49 PM

King of Lorien?

Alqualaure · 10-10-2003, 12:30 PM

Hmmm...

Okay, I'm technically not sure on this one! LOL I think you are correct, Radagast - but there's a sort of "technicality"... perhaps others can pitch in to confirm this for us?

I was going for "the lover of Nimrodel". However...

Quote:

Of old he was an Elven-king,
A lord of tree and glen,
When golden were the boughs in spring
In fair Lothlorien.

SO... does this mean he was a king of Lorien? Or is it that he was a king "when golden were the boughs in spring in fair Lothlorien"??? I was under the impression that only Galadriel and Celeborn ruled Lorien... See what I mean?

Help!?!

PS! - Sorry this reply took so long folks - I had a pile of work yesterday!
PPS! - I guess I've thrown the answer at any rate... regardless of the "technicality", I think it's your go, Radagast!

Radagast The Brown · 10-10-2003, 04:35 PM

It's from UT: 'The History of Galadriel and Celeborn and Amroth king of Lorien' - in the forth chapter in the second age.

I don't have a very good question, so... When (month) did the fellowship left Rivendell?

Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends." "Very well,' he answered aloud, lowering his sword.
