"To the land of Celegorm for which you seek, Lady,
you can by no means pass through the realm of King Thingol;
you must ride beyond the Girdle of Melian, to the south
or to the north. The/s_e_d_e_t/way is by the paths that lead east
from the Brithiach through timber and along the north-march of this
kingdom, until you pass the Bridge of Esgalduin and the/_o_d_/of/A_o_/,
and come to the lands that lie behind the hill of Himring.
There dwell, as we believe, Celegorm and Curufin,
and it may be that you will find them; but the road is perilous."

And we still need a speaker.

"To the land of Celegorm for which you seek, Lady,
you can by no means pass through the realm of King Thingol;
you must ride beyond the Girdle of Melian, to the south
or to the north. The speediest way is by the paths that lead east
from the Brithiach through timber and along the north-march of this
kingdom, until you pass the Bridge of Esgalduin and the fords of Arod,
and come to the lands that lie behind the hill of Himring.
There dwell, as we believe, Celegorm and Curufin,
and it may be that you will find them; but the road is perilous."

Ilfirin · 10-06-2008, 07:55 AM

Ah well! Its complete.

Im surprised that no one talked about the speaker and the context. Is it because its way too easy?

Its the march-wardens of Doriath speaking to Aredhel, when she left Gondolin in search of her cousins.

Ilfirin

P.S: I just finished my copy of The Silmarillion

Midge · 10-06-2008, 02:45 PM

NO! It's not finished.

"To the land of Celegorm for which you seek, Lady,

and it may be that you will find them; but the road is perilous."

Sorry, guys. I saw the bolded mistake and then completely forgot to change it. It's not correct either.

Ilfirin, sorry for my haste in correcting you. Your speaker addition is quite correct.

I get the impression that quite a few people are drawn into Entmoot by the Quote Game. Yours truly included!

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 10-06-2008, 03:37 PM

Dimbar

Midge · 10-06-2008, 04:22 PM

Yes, Dimbar is the first missing word. The second is still missing.

Ilfirin · 10-07-2008, 06:34 AM

Is it the Fords of Aron? Sirion is the only river in Beleriand that stays in my memory.

Ilfirin

Midge · 10-07-2008, 02:22 PM

No. Aron isn't it either.

Surprise poll! Should I give on this last word, or just wait till you guys find the right letter (you've only got... I think 24 letters left?... and that's without using the major letters!)

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 10-07-2008, 05:30 PM

I vote that you give the next quote to Ilfirin, but if you don't I'll guess: Aros.

Midge · 10-07-2008, 07:30 PM

Aros is right, but if you don't want the quote, it's Ilfirin's.

Ilfirin · 10-08-2008, 04:07 AM

Let The Dead Pirate Roberts give the next one. Actually I wont be near my computer for another couple of days.

"might" is incorrect.
The rest is correct.

Very good. This should be wrapped up pretty quickly at this rate.

Is the speaker Turin's mother - Morwen?

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 10-08-2008, 03:51 PM

All still correct.
