Willow's:
Always there but never staying Ever steady always straying Mirazhi's: Saviour of the saviour Defense of the defended From a great mountain This great one was lended Elf Girl's: Forboding and strange and then for a change Merry and light 'most forgotten by might Elf Girl's: One becomes strong The other weak and then succumbs at gaping peak Nariel's: They come late at night With eyes shining bright Beware, for they leap When you fall asleep But vanish at first sign of light Claenoic's: Glistening, tinkling, ever dark, A black cloak over all, but hark! A gruff voice echoes from the deep, Arousing rest, awakening sleep. Carafin's: One colour to many Red becomes rainbow Fire burns on the water As jewels fall down Okay. Guesses for all! Willow: Ents? Mirahzi: Sam? Nariel: Wargs? Claenoic: Gollum waking up Sam and Frodo? Carafin: The Window in the West? Hint for forboding and strange: "light" means basically the same thing as "merry" in this case. Hint for one becomes strong: The one who becomes weak is the one who succumbed. There. Is that it? *pant cackle pant cackle* What happened to BeardofPants, Kashka, and Eärniel?

Elf Girl, for your 'gaping peak' riddle.. is it Frodo?
And your guess is incorrect.

None correct so far.
Err... it's a very abstract answer.. so I think there'll be a lot more wrong answers

Whny ou say "abstract" do you mean as in an abstract idea? Is it some sort of idea? Neh? Confuzzled.
Willow: Crikey. Is it Sauron's eye? The Eye! No! Not the Eye!  Mirahzi: is it the Balrog? Okay...uh...  Is the mountain Kazad-dum?Elf Girl: (merry and light) it IS from Tolkien, no? (I just randomly thought of the Unicorns from the movie "Legend"). Um...possibly...Denethor? Elf Girl: (other riddle ) Is it Frodo and Gollum at Mt. Doom, as the Ring is thrown in?Nariel: GREMLINS! (Don't feed them after midnight...don't put them in the microwave! ) Um...wargs is a good guess, Elf Girl...I can't really think of anything else. I thought of trolls, but they were in the Hobbit, not LotR.Claenoic: Is it Strider? (Did I already guess that? Can't remember, and I'm too lazy to look) Carafin: erp. Um...the burning ships (corsairs, aragorn, etc). Or something with Denny (er...Denethor)'s pyre? whew. guessed out for now!  -tano
