If that is correct, as I believe it to be, that is amazing!!! I don't have any cool emoticons but BRAVO!!!

Guinevere 06-25-2005 02:29 PM

Thanks for the compliments, Mormegil! *blushes* ( English isn't even my mothertongue ;) )
(Explanation: The third word could be "go" or "do" , so the first two almost had to be "we must", and "without" was obvious. Then I tried possible words for -o-- , and when I put in "hope" I recognized the quote, just had to look up the rest. :D
Oh, and if I remember rightly, this same quote has already been used as Palantir here some time ago(not by me), so it stuck in my mind.)

Kath 06-25-2005 04:49 PM

Sorry morm but no, Guinevere is correct. I wasn't aware it had been used before though!

Firefoot 06-25-2005 07:33 PM

I'm pretty sure that it was me who used this quote. I hadn't recognized it with so few letters, though.

Guinevere 06-26-2005 03:19 AM

"And a curse too upon your errand! This only was wanting. Now comes the night."

Turin speaking to Malbung when he found out that Niniel was his sister. :(

luthien-elvenprincess 06-27-2005 07:40 PM

Ahh...Iluvatar speaking to Aule of the Seven Fathers of the Dwarves:

"Thy offer I accepted even as it was made. Dost thou not see that these things have now a life of their own, and speak with their own voices?"

mormegil 06-27-2005 08:25 PM

Well done Luthien. Your turn.
