Re: OK, new'un

Oh no! By the time he met Idril he was no long permitted to wander outside of her father's realm.

I should have rightly asked of Maeglin instead of Eol.... Eol would hardly have had the chance to make anything for his wife's niece.

I'll ask the question again in its more correct form.

Re: OK, new'un

Yes, looking up an answer is not a shameful deed if no one else can answer a question. In fact, when a question sits unanswered for more than a day it should be answered at all costs... regardless of the burden it will place upon your soul. (j/k ... I really meant the part about it being cool to look up answers after a while ... as far as I'm concerned)

Of the fate of Elured and Elurin no tale tells. They probably died after cruel servants of Celegorm seized them and left them to starvei the forest of Doriath.

Re: Elured

Don't mean to go off topic, but Gwaihir are you not in the Western hemisphere? I've heard similar complaints elsewhere, something to do with the international time line.
BTW - Elurin means remembrance of Thingol.

Why was a certain part of Lorien called the Naith?

Re: Elured

`Naith` means wedge, as in the Numenorean military formation `dirnaith`. This part of Lorien was wedge-shaped, hence the name.

&quot;Thus unseen he came at last to the dark region of Avathar. That narrow land lay South of the bay of Aldamar, at the feet of the Pelori, and it's long and mournful shores stretched away into the south, lightless and unexplored. There, beneath the sheer walls of the mountains and thee cold, dark sea, Ungoliant had made her abode.&quot;

Melkor sought her there.

If you are unfortunate enough to encounter a haunted barrow (present barrow excluded) on what side should you pass it?

Shocking! With all the Wights here, no one could answer a question about a barrow! Tom Bombadil instructs the Hobbits that if they come upon a barrow when leaving the Old Forest, they should pass it on the West side.

Another one. Thingol meets Melian in Nan Elmoth. Hundreds of years later, what elf met what elf maiden in the same forest?

Neldoreth and Region are correct, but there was another land completely within the girdle.

Was it Brethil? I don´t know if it was completely within the Girdle; the answer could also be Dimbar.

Brethil was outside the Girdle but part of Doriath... Dimbar probably wasn't part of Doriath (and thus def. not within the Girdle) but it was on the border.

Part of Aelin-uial was in the Girdle. Nivrim was the third one I am looking for. Arthorien I never heard of.

Go for it Gwaihir. You found a (partial) third one.

What is another Beleriandic name for Men who were not the Edain of the Three Houses?

Atani is not the answer.

Answer found in HISTORY.

The Easterlings were the only Men that I know of in Beleriand (apart from the Druedain) that were not Edain.

Moerbin is one term, but that is not quite the answer, as it also applied to Avari elves.

But that should send you in the right direction.

Re: Silm: Maeglin

Hmmm... either an alternative name for Dior, or the name of a son of Dior. I'm pretty sure that it was his alternative name.
