Oh, and not the flag.

The crown could stand for your head, the head...hmm...

BeardofPants · 03-29-2002, 09:44 PM

Could the silver crown refer to some sort of weapon? (and my turn: hope this isn't in the Sil... haven't read beyond the first chapter!)

It doesn't. *hint-alarm is going berserk in the backround*

BeardofPants, this an incredible long shot, is it the Ring?

Don't worry, it isn't. But it's a very small detail in LotR.

Not, the ring (again). So, is the crown a weapon them? You didn't answer...

Nibs · 03-29-2002, 09:54 PM

Is it Aragorn's banner? Or did someone already mention it already?

Last hint! No, It's not a weapon. *hint alarm goes off. Its batteries are running low*

No. Getting closer, though.

Nibs · 03-29-2002, 10:02 PM

Is it the Tolkiens' coat of arms? Or did someone already mention that?

I have to go.

BeardofPants · 03-29-2002, 10:04 PM

Well, we're never going to find out now...

Nibs · 03-29-2002, 10:09 PM

I was joking on the last one.

Perhaps it refers to the crowns that the guards of Gondor wore? And did Aragorn receive a similar one when crowned?

Starr Polish · 03-29-2002, 10:18 PM

The Seven stars that are represented along with the white tree of Gondor and the crown on that emblem? GAH!

TinuvielChild · 03-29-2002, 10:18 PM

If you mean in regards to my riddle, then yes, and no, it's not the ring.

TinuvielChild · 03-29-2002, 10:51 PM

yeah, that's what i thought, but amidst the 3 or 4 riddles going at the same time, i wasn't sure which riddle the (incorrect) answer "the Ring" was for.

hmmm...now what could it be, precioussss??

Menelvagor · 03-30-2002, 01:31 AM

for elfgirl's:
The sigel of Dol Amroth was a white swan on a blue background.
The King's crown was a silver helm with seagull wings.

I hope I'm at least on the right track...
