Here's another riddle for y'all to guess:

Upon a high hill overlooking the haven
a crystal crowned pillar stands tall and white.
Reflecting sunlight and moonlight to be seen from afar.
A monument to a mariner, leader of a mighty host.
In memory of victory over great evil.
Cast down when evil returned.

Negative. It is not one of the lamps. Guess again if you will....

People are being to specific for my riddle. No one is right.

Elvedans · 01-21-2003, 04:29 PM

Ummm Seeing as all the other guesses are too specific is it just the Anduin Elfgirl?

nope, but the blood of Westernesse is germaine to the riddle.

Elf Girl, is the answer to yours Fanuidhol? Or perhaps it is merely the Misty Mountains in general?

Elf Girl · 01-22-2003, 04:26 PM

Moving yet farther away...

TinuvielChild · 01-22-2003, 11:08 PM

OH! I know! It's the tower in Númenor, I forget the name; my Silmarillion has temporarily disappeared. Yes?

New Riddle:

High unearthly notes,
River leading to the Sea,
A wondrous gift of boats,
Relief for loss of he.

Really easy, but hey, I'm tired.

Aragorn sailing up the anduin with the corsairs?

No, sorry. It is not the tower in Numenor. Try again!

Keith K · 01-23-2003, 08:36 AM

Elf Girl, could the answer to your riddle be snow on Caradhras?

Melkor's significant othe · 01-23-2003, 08:44 AM

Is it the 'Elostirion' (sp?) tower on the white downs, with the palantir that looks over the sea & time to Westernesse and/or Eldamar

Menelvagor · 01-23-2003, 01:04 PM

Elf Girl: the gift of the elven boats to the fellowship in Lorien after Gandalf's death? Or the easing of the decision Aragorn has too make since Gandalf's death of the East or West road by Celeborn's gift of boats? That's pretty specific though... hm... must think...

Elf Girl · 01-23-2003, 04:23 PM

Yup, still too specific people.

Elvedans · 01-23-2003, 04:30 PM

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Is it Gandalf Elfgirl? Um maybe not!

Elf Girl · 01-23-2003, 05:43 PM

Um, no.
