k, thanks. It was a rather random guess, by the way.

Ehm, What's the difference in the ages between Boromir and Faramir?

No. (now don't start guessing numbers, until you cover all numbers between 1 to 20 )

It was five years. Boromir was born in 2978 of the third age, Faramir was born on 2983 of the third age.

[78(1) 79(2) 80(3) 81(4) 82(5) 83]

just curious, did you actually know that? or did you look it up? because that'd be very impressive if you didn't!

Both, kinda. I knew it was 5 years, and I obviosuly knew third age, all i didn't know was the exact date, I knew it had to be within the 29XX of the third age though, I looked it up just to put the exact numbers in the XX's.

It is 5 years indeed.

You really shouldn't look it up, because everyone can do that...

Good enough translation! My version says 'Lord of the coasts' - essentially the same thing.

You go!
