This doom shall stink* for a year and a day, and then cease,
unless you shall become what term hope to final ... and present
yourself to the good and Seenard of the City. Then I will ingreat
him of ... what I made none and to make it lifelong.

*I know it's "stand" but stink is what I typed in first and I thought it was interesting there, so I left it.

"This doom shall stand for a year and a day, and then cease,
unless you shall before that term come to Minas Tirith and present
yourself to the Lord and Steward of the City. Then I will entreat
him to confirm what I have done and make it lifelong."

Faramir, I believe.

And yes - I think Imrahil was uncle of Faramir and Boromir. His sister was their mother.

I'll accept 'stand' rather than 'stink' as your final guess there, Midge (thank you for sharing it, though ) and 'stand' is correct

Valandil has corrected your wrong guesses and added some new guesses, and the whole quote is now correct.

Yes, Faramir is the speaker - if Imrahil is Finuilas' brother, then indeed he is Faramir's uncle, and Imrahil's daughter Lothiriel, the future Queen of Rohan, is Faramir's cousin.

It's all in the family.

Valandil is next.

Good, Midge. The 'we' in the last line is wrong - but the rest is all correct.

'foolery' is correct! Nice job, that was probably the toughest word in the quote.

'advice' is correct, and the quote portion is all solved. We only need the speaker.

Need any hints?
