Okey, I really hope there aren's anyone else who have made a game like this....

You are supposed to find the correct order of the letters and find the quote. (The quotes should be from the LOTR book or the LOTR movies.) You should also find who said it and to whom....

This is mine....

He walks here and there, they say, as an old man hooded and cloaked.

I'm not sure who says it..but could it be Butterbur to Gandalf and the hobbits?

[ElenCala Isil]

the line is correct, but it is not said by butterbur...if it helps any it was said in TTT (the movie)

[gilraën]

Is it not Eomer to Aragorn and Co.

[Orofaniel]

He walks here and there, they say, as an old man hooded and cloaked.

Is it Treebeard then, he says it about Sarumann....He say is to Merry and Pippin perhaps?

[gilraën]

It is also in the book.

[Orofaniel]

wait, wasit, or is treebearsd saying it to gandalf and co? smilies/biggrin.gif

[ElenCala Isil]

yes gilraën, it is Eomer to Aragorn (yep, also in the book, but I have easier access to my scripts online smilies/biggrin.gif )

Someone may proceed now...as you both were right

[gilraën]

Orofaniel deserves all the credit smilies/smile.gif

He opened an eye and tried gallantly to smile. Who's this young giant with the loud voice? He whispered.

I think it's Merry to Pippin, or Pippin to Merry or something...someone to Merry or Pippin

Bilbo to Pippin, when they return to Rivendell.

[Sleepy Ranger]

The sentence is correct.
But wrong person.

Hint: Someone to Pippin

[Beth the Elf]

Frodo to Pippin?

Nope wasn't Frodo

Hint: Think food..... Not part of the fellowship.

That was Fredregar Bolger (Fatty no longer) talking to Pippin right after getting pulled out of the Lockholes.

...tey ncteina gneeld own dolsem kospne, sah ot msoehtaw rptoer.

Was it Theoden to Eomer
or

I'm not sure though who said it. Maybe Gimli? It sounds like him. smilies/biggrin.gif

My mistake it was from ROTK not TT. It was Gimli who said it. Now its your job to figure out who he said it to.

Could I have a hint please? :)

[luthien-elvenprincess]

Hint: a hobbit said this toward the beginning of the journey of the ring

[Encaitare]

"Are you still willing to help me" and I believe it is Frodo who says this, to the other hobbits once he learns that they know of the Ring and tells them what danger they are in.

[luthien-elvenprincess]

"Are you still willing to help me" is correct. Frodo said it...but not to any hobbit.

[Encaitare]

Hah! ::strikes triumphant pose:: I fetched my pretty Alan Lee-illustrated copy of the book and skimmed like mad.

[Morsul the Dark]

I do know I've read it just having a horrible horrible mind block.... is it Frodo to Gandalf? That doesn't sound right but this block is annoying me so thats the best I can do sadly

[Encaitare]

Nope, keep trying. Hope the block goes away; I hate it when that happens.

[ElenCala Isil]

even when he sneaks out at night it is only to look at the stars, I believe this is Saruman to Wormtongue?

[Encaitare]

It's Saruman speaking of Wormtongue... but not to him...

[ElenCala Isil]

*headdesk * Of course. I most certainly need to read RotK again!

Hope that works...

"woe-begotton spirit, fall now into dark oblivion, and forget for awhile the dreadful doom of life."
Luthien to Carcharoth.

[Mithalwen]

Solved so quickly but I take comfort from the fact that at least it was solved by it's speaker!!! Over to you Miss Tinuviel :D

[luthien-elvenprincess]

Yes, my delight in her character certainly helped me with this one. :)
Next:
...nda ew lhasl ese ndlaafgs draeb lnugicr enew eh surretn.

[Mithalwen]

And we shall see Gandalf's beard curling when he returns?

Pippin?

[luthien-elvenprincess]

correct :)

[Mithalwen]

Gosh that really does show how well Tolkien gave each character a "voice" cos it sounded like Pip but I still can't place the quote :o

"Nyam rae het genrats shaccen fo eth drowl dan elph tof halls moce morf eth dansh fo het kwea "

[Sleepy Ranger]

Many are the strange chances of the world and help oft shall come from the hands of the weak

-Gandalf..

[Mithalwen]

Yes indeed.....

Love your avatar .... btw .... now if Viggo hadn't been available .... how about Hugh J for Aragorn :p

[luthien-elvenprincess]

Mithalwen, the 'beard-curling' quote is found toward the very end of the chapter entitled Flotsam and Jetsam. Pippen is saying that Gandalf's beard would curl if he had ent-draught to drink! :)

[Encaitare]

now if Viggo hadn't been available .... how about Hugh J for Aragorn

Well, I just saw Hugh in "the Boy from Oz," and now I will always envision him running about in Hawaiian shirts singing his heart out.

[Mithalwen]

Well it would be an interesting interpretation ......

Thanks Luthien .... I thought it could well be something like that but had misplaced TTT :)

odom sganh lilts no a rhetad

Here you go.

[Kath]

"Doom hangs still on a thread", but I don't know who said it - Gandalf?

[Sleepy Ranger]

Now just find out to whom it was said and you have a corect answer.

[Firefoot]

Did he say it to Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli?

[Sleepy Ranger]

Yes, take it away Firefoot. Oh and reminiscent to old times, "Good Job!"

[Firefoot]

"utb noe os gioknwn ilwl otn aevh ogreotntf htta."

[Encaitare]

"But one so knowing will not have forgotten that."

Pippin to Merry about how they have been warned about Fangorn Forest, one they are freed from the Uruk-hai

[Firefoot]

Yuppers.

[Sleepy Ranger]

[rutslegolas]

Ya bump Encaittare. Where are you?? :(
