If this be jest, then it is too bitter for laughter. Nay, it is the last move in a great jeopardy, and for one side or the other it will bring the end of the game.

Radagast The Brown · 07-23-2004, 05:04 PM

Correct.

Only the speaker is left.

Radagast The Brown · 07-25-2004, 04:29 PM

No guesses anyone?

Beren3000 · 07-25-2004, 05:30 PM

Hints, please? Is it the Sil. or UT?

Radagast The Brown · 07-25-2004, 05:34 PM

It's in LotR. I can't believe you 'mooters don't know it. But I guess it's more obvious to someone who already knows the answer.

Count Comfect · 07-25-2004, 07:48 PM

OK, I'll take a stab at it... Elrond?

Beren3000 · 07-26-2004, 03:56 AM

I don't know....Denethor?

Radagast The Brown · 07-26-2004, 04:27 AM

No, not Elrond or Denethor.

***Valandil*** · 07-26-2004, 06:57 AM

Gandalf?

Radagast The Brown · 07-26-2004, 03:43 PM

No. Another hint - it's a man.

***Valandil*** · 07-26-2004, 04:02 PM

Aragorn? (sounds like something from 'The Last Debate')

Radagast The Brown · 07-26-2004, 04:05 PM

YES! Aragorn from the last debate, in the last page I think.

Your turn. I have to go to sleep... the flight and all. See yah.

Meriadoc Brandybuck · 07-26-2004, 08:21 PM

crown, Gondor, belongs, solely to the heirs, Elendil (extra dash?)

Merc... glad to have you join in the game... but we generally refrain from 'multiple-choice' solutions in a given post. Rian - your adds were correct except 'Elendil' - spaces are correct as given. Will attempt to update:

"The crown and royalty of Gondor belongs solely to the heirs of /_e_e_d_l/,

Beren3000 · 07-27-2004, 06:08 PM

"The crown and royalty of Gondor belongs solely to the heirs of Meneldil, not of Anarion, to them Isildur relinquished this realm. In Gondor this ...is weakened through the ...only; and we have not heard that the law is otherwise ...."

This is (IIRC) the letter sent to Arvedui refusing his claim to the throne of Gondor. (You and your appendix stuff, Val

)

***Valandil*** · 07-27-2004, 06:17 PM

You filled in some more blanks, but some of your words were wrong. Let me re-post - and show your post below it with wrong words in bold:

"The crown and royalty of Gondor belongs solely to the heirs of Meneldil,
/_o_/ of Anarion, to /_h_m/ Isildur relinquished this realm. In Gondor this /_e_i_a_e/ is /_e_k_n_d/ through the /_o_s/only;
and we have not heard that the law is otherwise /_n/_r_o_."

The crown and royalty of Gondor belongs solely to the heirs of Meneldil, not of Anarion, to them Isildur relinquished this realm. In Gondor this ...is weakened through the ...only; and we have not heard that the law is otherwise ...."
