I don't suppose they're rings? As in rings of power, etc.

No one has guessed mine. *cackle cackle* Carafin, have we been reading Harry Potter or was typing "Barliman Butterbeer" an accident?
Hint: The answer is several things of the same type, the first ones being forboding and strange, the last being merry and light and almost forgotten by Gandalf.

*sigh*
Okay...I know it's stupid. But at the moment what's in front of my nose is Entmoot. Great Eru, how is Entmoot the backbone of Arda? But I figured I'd guess it anyway... -tano

Maybe this is some sort of role-reversal or what-not..
Ooh.. is it the tectonic plates beneath Arda?! Thought it was worth a shot Or is it that secret flame stuff that Eru made the Valar out of? Is it a mountain range? Is it Valinor? Is it Middle Earth? Are my guesses getting better or worse?

Just take a look at the post I did: No correct answers for mine. Wow, I think I've just reached really terrific standards for riddle-making Doesn't the wording seem strange to you? *hint hint* *nudge nudge*

is it JRR Tolkien?
Only I saw a JRR in the first letters, and I thought, well, he would be the backbone of Arda, I suppose, if he "made it up"...neh? Make sense? Great Eru, forget SENSE, just tell me if I'm right or not! -tano
