You're guessing the great and feared one, right?

No, it's not Gothmog, but at least it's a closer guess.

Yup, that's the answer. Good guess!

Well, these lines refer to that she was found by Turin, and... to all what happened because of it.

Nebie- Riddle Game

I know that there is already a riddle thread I thought it might prove useful to create one for newbies because the old one is rather long and hard to get through. I read it to find out what has been done already. I will start off-

It was hard to give up.
yet needed to be done.
Underneath the ground,
a new bearer was found.

Clue: Its an event.

I know its pretty easy but whatev. You can post a riddle whenevr you want. Try to answer and give. I want this to be fun and no bickering over whether it was too ambiguous. Enjoy!

Gollum and Bilbo riddle game, isn't it?

I don't tihnk you should read all the riddle game thread. You just need to write a new riddle, if you want, in the end.

Edit - i see Valandil merged them. Heh... he'll explain why next post.

Haradrim - I didn't see a compelling reason for a separate riddling thread for new members... in fact, this might be a nice way for newer members to meet some old salts.

So - I've merged your thread into this existing Riddling thread.

Haradrim, I have no clue what your riddle might be
However, here's a humble on of my own:

In the mountains I lie*
Waiting for a word
And though I won't reply
My answer will be heard.

*lie as in "wait" not as in "fib"

Enjoy

Beren 300- The ring waiting underneath the Misty Mountains for signs of Sauron.

Mine- another hint- Its not underneath a mountain. More like a really really really small mountain.

Haradrim, I'm afraid you're wrong. My riddle is not about the Ring. Hint-it's in the mountains not under them.

As to your riddle, I can only guess: Merry and Pippin receiving the daggers in the Mound on the Barrow-downs?

nope.
Beren3000- string, or the Arkenstone, or maybe whats the name of the spider in the mountains around Mordor. AHHH! I cant remember. But you know who I mean.

Also this very very very very small mountain is quite nice and spruced up.

Think of a idea kind of. Its not really a person though it deals with people. Hope Im not being to confusing. Actually just ignore me.

Beren 3000- Absolutely no idea unless its the ones in my last poiunt which you neither proved or disproved
