Yes, that is correct, Radagast. The place is not written, however, the time is - a year before Bilbo's 111th birthday party.

You may have a turn!!

What is the meaning of the name Gil-Galad?

[Durin1]

Star of Radiance

[Radagast The Brown]

Yes. Or, at least, very close - because by FotR it's Starlight. Your turn then, Durin.

Most questions have probably been exhausted during the course of this thread but here goes anyway:

What do the Elves call the Hoarwell?

[Erkenbrand Of Rohan]

Mitheithel?

Did you get an email regarding this post Spock?? I wondered why you were missing from the most recent trivia threads!! I thought you were giving the rest of us a chance!!

BTW what is "re-moused"??

[Spock]

Elanor, yeahhhhhhhhh I got an email notification of your post back. My "kick the computer post" did it.

Re-Moused is when one has been to Disney Land (Calif.) or Disney World (Fl) and enjoyed Mickey Mouse & Company. Once experienced, re-Mousing is necessary from time to time to be able to deal with the real world.

Erkenbrand, I checked and you're right. So it's your turn. (just to keep the thread moving)

[Erkenbrand Of Rohan]

Who sang part of the song 'The Fall of Gil-galad'?

Gil-gal was an Elven-King,
Of him the harpers sadly sing;
the last whose realm was fair and free
between the Mountains and the Sea.

His sword was long, his lance was keen,
his shining helm afar was seen;
the countless stars of heaven's filed
were mirrored in his silver shield.

But long ago he rode away,
and where he dwelleth none can say;
for into darkness fell his star
in Mordor where the shadows are.

[Radagast The Brown]

Sam?

[Erkenbrand Of Rohan]

Yes, that's right. Your go.

[Radagast The Brown]

When (date) did the hobbits and Strider arrived to Weathertop? (sp.?)

[Radagast The Brown]

Indeed.

[Count Comfect]

What are the sign(s) Gandalf leaves on Weathertop that Aragorn interprets to mean he was there 3 days before?

[Radagast The Brown]

A 'g' and three lines (III)?

[Count Comfect]

Yes, indeed. Your go.
