This is a continuation of Odd Man Out 2, it having reached 100 posts. Falmar is asking. Can we have another hint? <img src=smile.gif ALT=":)">

Re: Odd Man Out 3

This is just so Falmar will notice it and that we are looking for a hint!

"He turned to Eldarion, and gave into his hands the winged crown of Gondor and the sceptre of Arnor, and bade him farewell."</p>

Re: Odd Man Out 3

P.S my answer still stands, Everyone had been to Mordor except for Radagast!

Re: Odd Man Out 3

I don't think it actually says anywhere that Aragorn entered Mordor. Although it is likely he did after the war. Anyway here are some hints.

It has something to do with travel, and Bilbo mentioned it very early in the Hobbit.

Aragorn in Mordor

Somewhere in one appendix it is said that Aragorn went with Gandalf over the Ephel Duath in some secret errand, and we all know what land is over this range of mountains...

Anyway, after the War; Aragorn did enter in Mordor.

Re: Aragorn in Mordor

Is Gollum the only one who never rode a horse? Just a wild guess, I don't remember Saruman doing so either.

Re: Aragorn in Mordor

Let me repeat the question.

Aragorn, Radagast, Gollum, Saruman, Frodo, Samwise.

Which doesn't belong? And why?

Another hint: Bilbo talked about this early in life and did it late in life.

PS: Others may disagree, but I think it is debatable whether or not Aragorn ever went to Mordor. In the appendix it says he was last seen looking toward the Mountains of Shadow, but it does not say he crossed them. He searched Ithilien for signs of Gollum but I think it unlikely he entered Mordor at this time. The boundary of Mordor doesn't start until one goes beyond Shelob's lair, or passes the Gates of the Morannon. While it is likely Aragorn conducted mopping up operations in Mordor after the War, I don't believe it says anything definite about it.

Re: Aragorn in Mordor

The answer doesn't involve things they likely did, but something they definitely did. Except for the 'odd man out'.

Re: Fostering

Yes, Telchar has it -- all but Finrod fostered his &quot;sister-son&quot; at some point, which was &quot;the custom of men in those times&quot;. (That's what The Silm says about Haldir-Hurin-Huor.)

You ask one, Telchar.

Re: Fostering

Was Narsil ever wielded by an elf? All the others were.


PS: Someone above asked when Aragorn ever sailed the ocean. He did so when he served under Ecthelion. He raided the fleet of the Corsairs of Umbar, destroying a good part of it. He slew the Captain of Umbar and withdrew his fleet with small loss. At the time he went under the name Thorongil.

Re: Fostering

Aranruth eventually became the sword of the Kings of Numenor. Assuming it was wielded by Ar-Pharazon, then it was the only one to travel to the Undying Lands.

Not exactly the answer I was looking for but, I'll give it to you. Actually looking for Gimli as the only one not to have died in Dale/Lonely Mountain
btw Celibrimbor was captured after the ruin of Ost-in Edhel
and tortured so Sauron could find out where he hid the rings.

Does the answer have to do with jewel robbery? Morgoth, Thingol, Sauron and Barahir had rings or Silmarils taken from them by force. Fëanor lost the Silmarils to Morgoth, of course, but wasn't present at the robbery.

Re:

Nope.

HINT: According to an old Irish saying, if he hasn't lost it already, a man loses his heart when this happens to him.

<font size = "-2"> The Sun has left his blackness, & has found a fresher morning / And the fair Moon rejoices in the clear & cloudless night / For Empire is no more, and now the Lion & Wolf shall cease.</p>[i]

HINT #2 -- it has to do with their families.

Hint #3 --

4 of these fellows had a certain kind of relative, the odd man did not.

Odd one out

Could it be that all of them fell when they died except for Gothmog?

-Ancalagon must have fallen from the skies.
-Gandalf cast Durin's Bane from the top of the endless stair.
-Glorfindel fell as he killed that Balrog.
-Smaug fell when shot by Bard.

Re: Odd Man Out

Sorry I've taken so long in replying; I had forgotten that I'd posted here.

- Gandalf
- Luthien
- Morgoth
- Sauron
- Elwing
- Galadriel

</p>

[The Laurenendorian]

Nobody?

[Elenhin]

Sauron never saw the light of a Silmaril?

[Telchar]

That's very unlikely Elenhin, As Morgoth wore them in his crown for all of the first age - those two most have been face to face... + there is the evening star...

Luthien - for never having sailed the Sea!

[The Laurenendorian]

When did Morgoth 'sail', then?

A nice try, but no.

A clue:
I could have included Radagast in the set, but not Fëanor.

[Turambar]

Was it Galadriel because she never changed her form?

[Telchar]

I just assumed that Morgoth sailed when he was taken prisoner and brought back to Valinor???

[The Laurenendorian]

Turambar has the answer I was looking for.

I hadn't considered sailing at all, at first. That was why I said that I couldn't have included Fëanor, though.

Turambar's turn.

[Turambar]

Feanor
Finarfin
Hurin
Mim

[Turambar]

No guesses? It's an easy one !

[Telchar]

Im a little at a loss here...

[ October 31, 2001: Message edited by: Telchar ]

[Turambar]

It's said to be a great tragedy when this happens to a parent . . .

[Telchar]

Feanor didn't have children that died before him...

[Turambar]

Correct as always Telchar.

[Telchar]

Saruman
Faramir
Aragorn
Denethor

[onewhitetree]

Faramir never got hold of a Palantir?

I would like to add that, though I never post in the trivia threads, I read them quite often, and I totally suck at this game. smilies/smile.gif

[Telchar]

HI OWT - you didn't suck this time smilies/wink.gif Ask a new one smilies/smile.gif
