Who said &quot;Do not be a fool. If you wish to treat with me, while you have a chance, go away, and come back when you are sober! And leave behind these cut-throats and small rag-tag that dangle at your tail! Good day!&quot;

Re: new quotation

I recognize that one! It is Gandalf chastising Gimli, Aragorn, Legolas and Hama at the door of Meduseld. They were arguing with Hama about leaving their weapons at the door before they could enter to see Theoden.

What is the name of Gwaihir the Wind-Lords brother?
And, which of the two is bigger?

Re: new quotation

Landroval was the brother of Gwaihir, but I don't know who was largest of the two. In the part where it describes how the two rescued Sam and Frodo at Mount Doom, it seems to say that Landroval is the Greatest of the Eagles of the North. But after reading it a few times, I think it is Gwaihir that JRRT was referring to.

Kingsfoil, thought Ioreth, smelt like the roses of Imloth Melui did when she was a girl (and not even the king could ask for better, or something like that).

Re: new quotation

Hmm.... by Imroth I guess you mean Ioreth, who was from Lossarnach. Forlong was killed on the Pelennor Fields (on the 15th and Ides of March). Since her lord was gone, and his lord (Denethor) was also gone, Imrahil (who was a kinsman of Denethor and was give rule of the city and state) became her prince until a new ruler of Lossarnach could be named.

Re: new quotation

Yes, yes, pardon the typo; of course it was witted as Ioreth.
The answer was superlative, inasmuch as the Lay of Pelennor Fields named no heir of Forlong the fat.

Re: Definitions

I missed this question in the earlier excitement. Sorry. I assume that &quot;rarum&quot; is sort for &quot;burarum,&quot; a brief Entish expression for orcs. Inasmuch as &quot;rarum&quot; is even hastier than &quot;burarum,&quot; it sounds like something Quickbeam might say.

rarum

It was Fangorn that used the words burárum and rárum, but I’m sure other ents must have muttered these syllables. burárum is used for orc, but the root rárum was clarified by Treebeard to be ‘hewing (of trees)’..more specifically ‘wanton hewing without purpose’. Thus, his word for orcs translates something like ‘senseless tree destroyers’.

I’ve looked in other internet and printed sources for a better description of this word, but haven’t been able to find a discussion of it. If anyone knows of one, please post it here.

Your turn galpsi. I think I need to quit for the evening. My questions are getting cryptic.
