[Narduewen]

Gandalf said that from words of old in the seige of Gondor.

[tifo_gcs]

I'm going to say Malbeth the seer, it seems like something he would say, but I'm in no way certain

[Gil-Galad]

tifo is correct Malbeth the seer said it first when Angmar came to power

[Gil-Galad]

tif oit is your turn so you can go now

[Beren87]

Give them time Gil-Galad, they have to figure out what your post actually says, that should take a few days at least. smilies/wink.gif

[Gil-Galad]

tifo it is your turn and i have o go super-slow for you so plz hurry

[Gil-Galad]

hello tifo? Beren go so we can keep this thread up to date

[elven maiden Earwen]

tifo has ten days to reply so just wait and if you want pm themn to remind them

[tifo_gcs]

sorry about the delay. Will go home and hit the books. I'll try and have something about 5:00 Am tomorrow

[tifo_gcs]

Once again sorry about that smilies/frown.gif So I've taken the easier of the two quotes i was considering.
"...much sorrow and many lives of men shall pass, until the Dunedain arise and are united again"

[Gil-Galad]

Galadriel?

[tifo_gcs]

sorry, no

[Gil-Galad]

Elrond?

[Gil-Galad]

ELROND?

[Gil-Galad]

E-L-R-O-N-D?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[elven maiden Earwen]

gil-galad calm down and give them a chance to reply. they might be busy, so just wait OK!

[tifo_gcs]

no not Elrond either, and just because I don't reply right away doesn't mean I'm going to frown on you if you come with another guess while you're waiting for my slow behind to drag my fingers to the keyboard ;-)
I'll give you hint. Its easy, but not because I expect you to know the quote off the top of your head...

[Morgoth Bauglir]

ah!malbeth the seer!right??its one of the people who fortold the future, but its been so long since ive read the Silm. it happened furing the kin strife of gondor...thats all i know.anyways, malbeth i say!

[ April 15, 2003: Message edited by: Morgoth Bauglir ]

[Beren87]

Malbeth isn't mentioned in the Silm.

I can't find it in UT, H, LotR, or The Silm. Nice quote!

[tifo_gcs]

Yes it's Malbeth the Seer. About 90% of all the quotes about the future are from him. which i hope explains my saying
Its easy, but not because I expect you to know the quote off the top of your head...
The quote is from the appendixes to Return of the King, where the king of the Dunedain of the North flees from his hiding among the snow-men because the army if the Witch King approaches (can't remeber the name of the king right now), but his ship sinks and he dies. The first half of the quote talks about the King having a choice, and if he picks the one that seems the safest/easiest, then... "...much sorrow and many lives of men shall pass, until the Dunedain arise and are united again."
So Morgoth is quite right, and the buck has now been passed
Nice quote!
You flatter me, Beren87... i like it smilies/biggrin.gif

[Gil-Galad]

who ever got it right plz go and keep this thread up to date

[Morgoth Bauglir]

skip me please...sorry and thanks

[Gil-Galad]

Beren whoudl you plz go?

[Gil-Galad]

fine then i will go


"Come hither Mansbane! and get a new name!"

[Gil-Galad]

is my quote that hard?

[Beren87]

Well, considering it has nothing to do with the theme that you based this thread around, it's not even a viable qoute.

But, it was Eorl to Felaróf.

[Gil-Galad]

this was in 2nd age of sun i belevie and yes it was eorl to the horse that killed his father

[Beren87]

The topic of this game is supposed to be that of prophecy and quotes relating thereof.

in the armour of fate (as the Children of Earth name it) there is ever a rift, and in the walls of Doom a breach, until the full-making, which ye call the End.

[Gil-Galad]

well are you gonan go or what? and it said 1,2,3 ages of sun and Eorl was in the second age SO CONTINUE THE THREAD smilies/mad.gif smilies/evil.gif smilies/mad.gif

[Beren87]

I did continue the thread, it's the post right above your last.

And this game should be for prophecy and quotes dealing with the future only. If it's for quotes from the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd age of the sun then it's not a valid quotes game.

Edited to control my anger. smilies/wink.gif

[ May 04, 2003: Message edited by: Beren87 ]

[Gil-Galad]

well the quote is put, it had soemthign becasue Eorl was riding Mansbane into the battle of the wold which gave him success and Gondor gave him land for his people

[Beren87]

I have no idea what you said or what its purpose was.

Here's the current quote, again.

in the armour of fate (as the Children of Earth name it) there is ever a rift, and in the walls of Doom a breach, until the full-making, which ye call the End.

[Gil-Galad]

for your quote, i would say Aule or Manwe

(childeren of Earth: Dwarves created by Aule)

[Beren87]

Good educated guess! Bud sadly, incorrect.

[Gil-Galad]

Illuvatar? when he was talking to Aule about his creation of the Dwarves? or another time

[Beren87]

Nope, that's not it.

I'll give a hint though, it comes from UT.

[Gil-Galad]

give another hint?

[Beren87]

It's not by a man, elf, or dwarf.

[Legolas]

Ulmo, my chat nick's namesake, to Tuor. smilies/wink.gif

[Beren87]

Bing-o Ulmo!..err...Legolas..err...

Correct, your mod-ship! smilies/tongue.gif

[Gil-Galad]

whiever is suppsoe to go GO!!!

[Beren87]

whiever is suppsoe to go GO!!!

A non-coherent reminder is just as worthless as no reminder at all.

Legolas, 'tis your turn.

[Legolas]

For vengeance and redress of their loss the Noldor came. Yet all the more sure shall they be as allies against Morgoth, with whom it is not now to be thought that they shall ever make treaty.

[Beren87]

Thingol to Melian, they were argueing about whether or not to trust the sons of Fëanor.

[ May 31, 2003: Message edited by: Beren87 ]

[Elentarimir]

Thingol to Melian doesn't sound right, so maybe Melian to Thingol?

That's my guess. I'll be surprised if I'm right.

[Legolas]

It was Thingol. Your turn, Beren87.

Then Thingol was silent, being filled with grief and foreboding; but at length he said: 'Now at last I understand the coming of the Noldor out of the West, at which I wondered much before. Not to our aid did they come (save by chance); for those that remain in Middle-earth the Valar will leave to their own devices, until the uttermost need. For vengeance and redress of their loss the Noldor came. Yet all the more sure shall they be as allies against Morgoth, with whom it is not now to be thought that they shall ever make treaty.'
But Melian said: 'Truly for these causes they came; but for others also. Beware of the sons of Fëanor! The shadow of the wrath of the Valar lies upon them; and they have done evil, I perceive, both in Aman and to their own kin. A grief but lulled to sleep lies between the princes of the Noldor.'
And Thingol answered: 'What is that to me? Of Fëanor I have heard but report, which makes him great indeed. Of his sons I hear little to my pleasure; yet they are likely to prove the deadliest foes of our foe.'
Their swords and their counsels shall have two edges,' I said Melian; and afterwards they spoke no more of this matter.

[Beren87]

Go me.

This night, it may be, he will meet the Dragon

[Gil-Galad]

i'm sure thats Gandalf talking about either Bilbo or the Dwarves when they go to the Green Dragon(or Smaug?)

[gilraën]

Or ?Niniel about Glaurung and Turin?

[Beren87]

I'm sure gilraën is correct. smilies/wink.gif

[gilraën]

Thanks smilies/smile.gif

Beware of yourself, lest it be ill.

[Beren87]

Melian to Turin, after she mocked him for comparing himself to Beren.

[Evisse the Blue]

Like the title suggests, you have to give a quote that foretells something about future events.
All I could think of now was an easy one:
He may become like a glass filled with a clear light for eyes to see that can.

[Firefoot]

Gandalf to himself.

[Evisse the Blue]

yes.

[Firefoot]

"To evil end shall all things turn that they begin well;" Who said it to whom?

[Tuor of Gondolin]

Melian to Thingol?

[Firefoot]

Nope.

[Tuor of Gondolin]

Some might say it was Mandos himself, to the Noldor.

And specifically, the House of Feanor.

[Firefoot]

Yeppers.

[Tuor of Gondolin]

How about:

"...curb your pride and your greed, or you will fall at the end of whatever path you take, though your hands be full of gold."

[Alda]

Gandalf to Thorin?

[Tuor of Gondolin]

Yes. :)
Your turn.

[Alda]

"well may he fear it. For know this: it is the doom of this Dragon (and all his brood, it is said) that how great so ever be his armour of horn, harder than iron, below he must go with the belly of a snake. Therefore, ...."

Who was this person addressing, and who was the Dragon? :)

[Tuor of Gondolin]

Turin to the people of Brethil, looking for a few good men to help him terminate, with extreme prejudice, Gurthang.

[Alda]

You are correct sir, :D

[Tuor of Gondolin]

Translation available upon request.

Anar kaluva tielyanna!

[The Perky Ent]

Well, I know Anar means sun, so I think it means :The Sun shall shine upon your path! And I think Tuor said it upon comming to Gondolin.

[Tuor of Gondolin]

Hrum, Hoom! That was a rather hasty response.
Good translation.
You're close, but it was said to Tuor (and not at Gondolin), by ____?

[The Perky Ent]

Yes! Very Hasty, us ents ;) Hmm, Cirdan to Tuor?

[Tuor of Gondolin]

Nope.

[The Perky Ent]

Gelmir!

[Tuor of Gondolin]

Gelmir it is! Your turn.

[Gil-Galad]

wow i can't believe how annoying i was back then...well anyone can go cause i can't think of anything

[The Perky Ent]

? Uh...Gil-Galad? You ok? I think you've been posting to fast. Maybe you should lie down...

Anyways, I don't know a lot of these, so here goes

Maybe we shall cleave a road, or make such an end as will be worth a song

[Tuor of Gondolin]

How about Theoden King suggesting to Aragorn a cavalry charge at Helm's deep?
