According to Gandalf, what might there not have been had he not met Thorin Oakenshield?

Um... Lothlorien, maybe? (Because if the Dwarves hadn't retaken the Lonely Mountain there would have been nothing between Mordor and the Misty Mountains but Mirkwood... I think)

*snaps fingers* darn. Okay, Clarify something for me. What is it that might not have been- an event; or a thing, a place?

Aha!!! No Queen, it was, precious, yess, no Queen of Gondor. Gandalf said, he did, he said there would have been no Queen of Gondor, precious- he said it, he did.
Are we right, my precious, my love?

I disagree - "We might now hope to return from the victory here onlny to ruin and ash." - that's what Gandalf says, in Appendix A.

Close, Valandil.
Val, kind sir, you need to check your pm box. But I'm off for now. I'll not be back until next week- so if someone gets the correct answer for sure *off they go to the book*, they can have it. Otherwise honorary turnship goes to Val.
