Do u mean the ring of Barahir??

Cookieman hasn't been around since Sept and this question is 4 months old I think you could just take the thread and ask a question. :)

What is the name of the defence created by Morgoth against Orome?

Do you mean ungoliants darkness or maybe mordor?

Could be: Hithaeglir - Misty Mountains, raised by Melkor to hinder the riding of Oromë...

Yes that’s the answer i was looking for please proceed Telchar

Among wizards, one rode off as if the Nine were after him, and another rode like a gale... who were they?

Radagast and Gandalf, respectively. I think.

right you are... :)

time to bring this thread back to life...


Q: Who Were the Dwarves fighting during the War of the Ring?

Easterlings, who had been sent north to Dale.

But of course Master Eomer, your turn

Thank you, good Elvenking.

Who was Wandlimb?

I am pretty sure he was one of the Ents of Fangorn...

She was an entwife and the beloved of Treebeard.

Lommy is correct. :)

How did Fingon die?

One of the more horrific parts of the story, for me. He was slain by Gothmog, and hacked and battered into the ground.

Right you are, of course. :)

Who is the Hewer of Caves?

You mean Finrod Felagund?

That would be right!

Who was wearing blue hoods, apart from the Blue wizards?

Fili and Kili, right?

Exactly. Your turn now.

All right, so tell me when did Turambar and Niniel get married.

I can't think of a year, but it was Midsummer.

That's what I was looking for. Go on.

Who was Hild?

You mean the mother of Fréalaf?

Yes, Legate. But if you'd be so kind as to give one more sentence about the significance of Hild and Fréalaf, you may carry the thread. ;)

(Picky, eh? :D )

Like that she was Helm's sister? And the line from Hild (Fréalaf, later) was the one that continued the line of the kings.

But of course. Please continue, my fiendish vampire ally. :)

Alright, O Wise Firthhyando... ;)

What about this, a little non-typical: If you were an owner of a tourism agency in the first millenium of the Third Age, what of the following cities would be surely the best choice to present in your catalogue, and why?

Choices: Bree, Calembel, Edoras, Tharbad, Umbar.

Once again: I want reasons as well.

Well Edoras was fairly New at the beginning of the Third Age... and it also has the Golden Hall recently made so that would defiantely bring tourism up

No, not Edoras. You caught into the trap, Gil, because Edoras didn't yet stand at the first millenium of Third Age. And the Golden Hall was finished by Eorl's son Brego in 2569. :)

Then i could say Umbar, i beleive it was still in Gondors hands and it was a growing port city

i must research on what calembel is

Then look at it first. But I want a good tip why, you know, the destination must have something special about it, so you'd have to pick the city with the really most, most, most attractive (for ME tourists) things in it, whatever it might be. Big city is nice as well, but it doesn't mean people would find it attractive. I suggest you try to imagine a slogan in the agency's catalogue. "Visit big city!" is certainly nothing much. If you live in Minas Tirith for example, you are in a big city as well.

Well, is it Calembel?

"Visit the chief town of Lamedon... close by the famous green fields of Lebennin... watch the sun set blood-red behind the Pinnath Gelin..." Something like that?

No, it is not Calembel... there is one location that really, ultimately beats the others in the eyes of an early-3rd-age Middle-Earthian...

You only have to figure out why it is (and of course which one it is) ;) And it is more than just blood-red sunset and beautiful fields with streams...
