what happened in the autumn of 1484 S.R?

***Valandil*** · 08-26-2005, 11:52 PM

Are you sure about that? I take it you mean "Fourth Age" since we don't have any year-by-year account of "First Age" - but the Fourth Age accounts don't go as far as 1484.

I suspect you mean "SR" - is that the case?

yeah sorry i meant shire reckoning but i thought it was in the fourth age

***Valandil*** · 08-27-2005, 10:44 PM

Well - it was in the Fourth Age, but I wouldn't call it year 1484 of that age. Still - I see you've corrected it now, so I will guess:

Is that when Merry and Pippin saddled up their ponies and left the Shire for the last time, to make a visit to see Rohan and Gondor once more?

rohirrim TR · 08-28-2005, 02:28 PM

not quite something significant happened in the autumn of that year

***Valandil*** · 08-28-2005, 07:15 PM

Is that when Pippin and Merry died?

no you are getting closer though

***Valandil*** · 08-30-2005, 07:08 AM

Oh - is that when Sammy dropped the Redbook off at Westmarch - and kept going on to the Gray Havens... to sail off with Cirdan?

rohirrim TR · 08-31-2005, 09:31 AM

no...

the clue is rohan

***Valandil*** · 08-31-2005, 09:30 PM

When King Eomer died?

rohirrim TR · 08-31-2005, 10:24 PM

yes it is

***Valandil*** · 09-01-2005, 12:17 AM

OK - who had two sons - named Artamir and Faramir, and at least one daughter?

rohirrim TR · 09-01-2005, 09:03 AM

Pippin?

Telcontar_Dunedain · 09-01-2005, 02:26 PM

Ondoher

***Valandil*** · 09-02-2005, 07:30 AM

Ondoher is correct - King Ondoher of Gondor.

Your turn TD.

Who was Tar-Palantir's father?

Lotesse · 09-05-2005, 04:20 PM

Ar-Gimilzor.

Spock · 09-05-2005, 04:22 PM

Are you sure it wasn't Al Roker?
