Aww.. I was thinkin' maybe it was a word-confuser thingy.

Is it a spring? Specifically, is it that Spring that the Valar dwelt in when they were in Middle Earth?

<-- hopeful look

cassiopeia · 07-14-2002, 01:06 AM

Sorry

A clue I gave was that is was in the fellowship of the ring. Good Luck!

Mirahzi · 07-14-2002, 01:12 AM

Oh right.. silly me

Has it got something to do with bathing? (i.e. bathing at Tom Bombadil's place)

cassiopeia · 07-14-2002, 01:21 AM

Yay, you got it. It was a bath, but your guess was good enough!

Mirahzi · 07-14-2002, 01:22 AM

Wooo!

Christiana's:
The last in blossom
With elanor the first
Found not in evermind but in a diner
Overflowing with mirth the last to find it.
LFJTKHJ
DIHFTU
FENKPL
MZDEG

Carafin's:
1) In twilight three are wrapped
as the night turns grey
Blazing comes the light
from far away

2) A breath of cold
grips, and twists
Evil of old
burnt away like mists

Willows:
1) A melted icicle
of a slain spark
gone in the second
twice 34

2) Usurper dead
the right restored
enemy established
by civil war

3) Bell with one ring
causing three to be cast
the wise one will ring the loudest

4) A day of circles
a double birth
a feast both in
the third and fourth

5) A unique mention
the sister of oak
and mother of twins

6) An eldest girl
of letters fond
a storage for wasted
writings was left in her care.

Elf Girl's:
Forboding and strange
and then for a change
Merry and light
'most forgotten by might

Hallo! No one has guessed mine! *cackle cackle* Major hint: Where they(the forboding ones and the merry ones) originated was Lothlorien.

Carafin · 07-14-2002, 01:41 PM

sorry, I've been away
ringbearer geussed the first one it was Aragorn gimli and legolas before eomer rode by
no-one has geussed the second one though

Radagast The Brown · 07-14-2002, 02:31 PM

Willow, is your fifth is Vana?

Tanoliel · 07-14-2002, 09:59 PM

I don't think I have any children, Radagast.

EG and I ask, Willow, is your fifth one Elwing?

Radagast The Brown · 07-15-2002, 03:00 PM

Willow is your fifth, maybe, is Luthien?

Willow Oran · 07-15-2002, 08:54 PM

Still no correct guesses. For #3, and #6 think Hobbits. For #1, and #2 think battles, weapons etc. For #5 think dwarves, and for #4 think special name for a day of the year that you have already guessed. Hope that helps.

Mirahzi · 07-15-2002, 09:30 PM

Willow, is your 5th one Yavanna? Is your third the Ringbearers?

Mirahzi · 07-15-2002, 09:46 PM

New riddle:

From east to west
And back again
Travels the company
Made up of no men

cassiopeia · 07-15-2002, 11:31 PM

Mirahzi is yours the Noldor?

Willow: #6 is it Elanor?, #5 is it Dis?

Elf Girl: Is it the 3 elf rings?

Mirahzi · 07-15-2002, 11:44 PM

Nope, not the Noldor.

Elf Girl · 07-16-2002, 02:50 PM

Argh. I have written a new riddle, one of my best, (Not in hardness, but in use of language) and, *sniff* no one can guess my old one! *sigh* Big hint: They came from Lorien, but not when the Fellowship is in Lorien, and we don't hear about them in Lorien! (Hehe. I am the master of complicated hints.

)

Tanoliel · 07-16-2002, 07:58 PM

Willow #5 : Dis, I believe....neh? *snerk*
Mirahzi, is it the elves who were changed to orcs?

-tano

Mirahzi · 07-16-2002, 08:25 PM

Nope, not elves who were changed into orcs. Wow, this riddle has already survived longer than I would've expected

Willow Oran · 07-17-2002, 12:40 AM

Yay!! People got #5 correct. However, #6 is not Elanor, and #3 is not the ringbearers, though it has to do with one of them.

Mirazhi, is your most recent riddle the company of dwarves and Bilbo in the Hobbit?

Yes, yes it is. I was hoping you people wouldn't think of the Hobbit
