A guard said that to Gandalf when they wanted to speak with Theoden.

The name of the guard was Harma I think.

Maybe it was Eomer that said that though.

No, it was guard that said that to Gandalf, when they wanted to see Theoden.
'Strange names you give indeed! But I will report them as you bid, and learn my master's will,' said the guard.
Ok my turn, I guess.
zifnab
01-15-2002, 01:39 PM
'I am not a tree-root, Sir,' he said, nor a bag, but a bruised hobbit.'
Ok, now you know it was a hobbit, but which one and who did "he" say it too.

Ok, here's a guess off the top of my head...
Was it Pippin, talking about how he had left behind the brooch of his cloak, to be found?
Gayalondiel
01-23-2002, 02:15 PM
was that really a guess? absolutely right!
your turn, zifnab
zifnab
01-23-2002, 03:22 PM
Believe it or not it was off the top of my head! I had just re-read that section actually. But I have found one that might be too easy, but oh-well.
But heres my quote:
I have, maybe, the power to heal her body, and to recall her form the dark valley.

it was Eomer when Aragorn said that he would come and fight at Helm's Deep.

I think that Turambar has been over taken by his doom and DIED! just kiddin anyways.......who's right?

02-14-2002, 06:37 AM
Lindolirian when did you last time look ind the Quiz room? Here is goes:
I’m going AWOL and I don’t want to kill this thread so I’ll give the answer. Galadriel, Aragorn and Gandalf all passed through Moria prior to the War of the Ring. Celeborn likely didn’t because he had a grudge against dwarfs as a result of the killing of his kinsman Thingol and the sacking of Menegroth Turambar
Androndo the Thoughtfull
02-14-2002, 06:42 AM
ah, yes, The awnswer..... look here, friends - and if you don't believe me look in silmarillion in 'Of the Coming of the Elves and the Captivity of Melkor'
and
Yavanna spoke before the Valar, saying: 'Ye mighty of Arda, the Vision of
Iluvatar was brief and soon taken away, so that maybe we cannot guess within
a narrow count of days the hour appointed. Yet be sure of this: the hour
approaches, and within this age our hope shall be revealed, and the Children
shall awake.
zifnab
02-14-2002, 10:40 AM
Well since it apears you have got a correct answer, Androndo. And that Turambar has gone AWOL. I think it would be alright for you to post the next quote. smilies/smile.gif

Book 6 of LOTR ?
I found a copy-cat in 'Riddles In The Dark' - The Hobbit
"Well, what is it?" he said. "The answer's not a kettle boiling over, as you seem to think from the noise you are making."
However, Entmoot appears to be right - just adding my two-penneth
