Mithalwen 03-16-2006 12:51 PM

Why thank you...
 
An easy one because of being over committed :(

Seen in the Mirror of Galadriel perhaps?

Alcarillo 03-16-2006 06:39 PM

Legolas, for his namesake's infamous appearance in the mirror.

Mithalwen 03-17-2006 06:36 AM

Ooh good thinking but the answer is much simpler. :D

Thinlómien 03-17-2006 07:49 AM

Gandalf_the_White?

mormegil 03-17-2006 08:19 AM

Another simple guess

SamwiseGamgee

Lalaith 03-17-2006 08:32 AM

well, given that Galadriel would presumably sometimes see her own reflection...we have an Alatariel, and two other variants of that name...am I warm at all?

The Saucepan Man 03-17-2006 10:16 AM

Perhaps Galadriel's Mirror would have shown her as she once was ...

GaladrieloftheOlden?

Mithalwen 03-17-2006 12:42 PM

Well you are more or less in the right direction if not quite on the right track.....you are all being far too specific..

Gil-Galad 03-17-2006 05:49 PM

hmmm... i was thinking Boromir88 cause in ze movie he appears in ze mirror ja

Mithalwen 03-18-2006 06:02 AM

*Smacks head against desk* Still going down the same wrong track......aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggg gggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Kath 03-18-2006 10:37 AM

Vague guess
 
Aiwendil? PT is Late Istar and Frodo thinks he sees Gandalf who at the time has just died.

Or am I wandering completely off track here?

Anguirel 03-18-2006 10:42 AM

Nah, it's going to be something really general...like "water" or "visions" methinks...but I can't yet find anything of the sort...

Mithalwen 03-18-2006 10:58 AM

Thank you Ang, darling, for giving me some indication that my understanding of the words "you are all being far too specific" is not exclusive to me.

Anguirel is very much on the right track and very close.

Mithalwen 03-18-2006 10:59 AM

But Kath is looking at the right area even on the wrong track.... ;)

Kath 03-18-2006 11:04 AM

Okay, Amanaduial for shadow of starlight?

Mithalwen 03-18-2006 11:07 AM

Ooh that is nice and possible but not the one I was thinking off.... it is slightly more specific - remember Ang was very near and I am sure you will hit it..... just have to lynch someone now...

Kath 03-18-2006 11:08 AM

Brinniel - reflections of darkness.

I'm running out here!

Mithalwen 03-18-2006 11:12 AM

Again plausible but not the one. This downer has been around more recently though it seems hasn't posted for about the same time. It is the PT that you are after...as you have clearly gathered..

Kath 03-18-2006 11:17 AM

While I'm looking:

symestreem - face in the water?

That is the one.... too simple? Funny I don't think he/she has posted while I have been here but the PT stuck in my mind......

Over to you m'dear.

Kath 03-18-2006 11:27 AM

Too simple!?! It took me half an hour :rolleyes:

Healing those in the Last Homely House.

Anguirel 03-18-2006 11:40 AM

I'm going to try the obvious

Elrond of Rivendell

as well as the slightly more laterally thought out

elronds_daughter

I meant that the face in the water would be the answer to what you might see in the Mirror :D .. I nearly chose the dead marshes instead..

Kath 03-18-2006 02:07 PM

No to both I'm afraid Ang.

Had symestreem not been right that would have been where I went next!

Awww - you did well....I just htought face in teh water could have been either the mirror or the marshes but I thought the mirror was better...


Ooh I have had an idea (just been thinking about HArry Potter) but I almost don't want to be right sinceI am running out of ideas

Imladris - tears of a Phoenix? Imladris is rivendell and aren't Phoenix tears healing?

Kath 03-18-2006 02:16 PM

That's it Mith! I had hoped someone would be thinking along the same lines!

So mwahaha, your turn :p

Mithalwen 03-18-2006 02:27 PM

Argh.... erm

A nice tear with verve?

Kath 03-18-2006 02:29 PM

Encaitare - bittersweet symphony?

Mithalwen 03-18-2006 02:30 PM

After a full 120 seconds you get the thread back !

Kath 03-19-2006 11:17 AM

And yet it takes me a day to notice :rolleyes:

A hobbit that exists yet does not.

Glirdan 03-19-2006 11:52 AM

burrahobbit is my immediate thought.

The Saucepan Man 03-19-2006 12:41 PM

Firefoot the Illusionary Holbytla?

Kath 03-19-2006 02:30 PM

That's it Sauce.

The Saucepan Man 03-20-2006 06:23 PM

Righty-ho. :)

Movie editor is partially consumed by animal - a tarantula!

Kath 03-26-2006 10:53 AM

Well it seems it isn't just me that's stuck on this! Can we have a clue please Sauce?

The Saucepan Man 03-26-2006 11:02 AM

The answer is staring you in the face ... :p

Kath 03-26-2006 11:13 AM

Oh my the help that was! *faints* :rolleyes:

JennyHallu 03-26-2006 11:28 AM

Is it Kath? If so...I can only interprete the middle clue. Partially consumed could be "ate" without the E.

The Saucepan Man 03-27-2006 06:32 AM

Nope. Not Kath.

It is a cryptic clue, I must admit, but it's a very easy one if you know where to look.

Dearie me, SpM, they're all easy once one knows where to look. :p
