Of course, since the word 'Sauron' is never even used in "The Hobbit"!!

Elemmírë · 01-28-2005, 09:24 AM

I wouldn't know.

Is it the Hobbit, or are you trying to trick me?

I'm not looking forward to sifting through my posts if it's the latter....

***Valandil*** · 01-28-2005, 09:28 AM

Since we've gone a couple pages since the quote was solved, let me update it:

"Fly east not north, folk of Sauron!
See, the homes you stole are in flames!"

Just need the speaker.

and... of course it's not from 'The Hobbit'!

Twista · 01-28-2005, 09:42 AM

I still think its Mauhúr lol.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 01-28-2005, 12:18 PM

Eomer?

Still wrong though... but the guess of 'Eomer' is... well, closer to the... mark!

For another hint, it's probably safe to say that this is the only direct quote we have attributed to this particular group of speakers.

Elemmírë · 01-28-2005, 04:01 PM

I did read all of LOTR, you know.

The name Ghan keeps coming to mind... but I know that's only part of it, and it's probably wrong anyway...

***Valandil*** · 01-28-2005, 04:19 PM

I was pretty sure you had read all of LOTR - and the Silmarillion. But did you read those 'extra' stories included in the Silmarillion book? The Appendices of LOTR?? ALL of UT???

Count Comfect · 01-28-2005, 04:20 PM

The men of Erech?

Nope.

But... I did finally buy UT today to add to my ever growing collection.

Next on the list is PoME...

So, can I cheat and look for it?

Last Child of Ungoliant · 01-29-2005, 06:52 PM

is it the rohirrim on the pelennor?

***Valandil*** · 01-29-2005, 08:16 PM

I don't want to totally kill this thread, so I better go heavy on the hints:

LCOU - distant ancestors...

LM - UT

Last Child of Ungoliant · 01-29-2005, 08:19 PM

the haladin?

***Valandil*** · 01-29-2005, 08:20 PM

Oh - not that far back... Third Age

Last Child of Ungoliant · 01-29-2005, 08:22 PM

the Northmen of Rhovanion?

***Valandil*** · 01-29-2005, 08:32 PM

It's more specific, but I'll give it to you on that.

In "Cirion & Eorl" it was 'Mahrwini's horsemen' - that was from an escapade in about 1899 (I think) TA.

your turn Chrys!

Elemmírë · 01-29-2005, 08:32 PM

The horsemen of Marhwini.

Nope, I haven't read that story yet; but now I will... it looks interesting. Thanks, Val.
