Glirdan 09-11-2005 08:04 PM

There has to be an S. I think I'm slightly obsessed with that letter now. :rolleyes:

mormegil 09-11-2005 08:28 PM

Some revealing "O" could be helpful

Guinevere 09-12-2005 06:53 AM

That's the one, Mormegil! Please proceed.

"And mariners' wives are few, and they endure what they must, for such is their livelihood and their necessity. The King's heir is not a mariner by trade, nor is he under necessity."

Meneldur to Aldarion

mormegil 09-13-2005 09:21 AM

Correct though I thought this one might be a bit more difficult than my previous ones.

Guinevere 09-13-2005 02:52 PM

Well, mariners are not found in so many places... Besides, I am very fond of UT! ;)

Try this one:

"---/ ----/ --/ ----/ ---/ ---/ --/ ----/ ------/ --/ --------/, ---/ --/ ----/ ---/ -----/ --/ --/ -------/. -----------/, ----/ ----/ --/ ---/ ------/ ---/ ----/ ---/ ----/ -------/ --/ ----/ -----/; ---/ --/ ---/ --/ ----/ --/ --------/ ---/ ---/ --/ ---/ -----/."

Glirdan 09-13-2005 03:06 PM

Let's go with S, shall we?

mormegil 09-13-2005 03:26 PM

Fairly long, let's try "I" please

Guinevere 09-13-2005 03:27 PM

Glirdan 09-14-2005 05:19 AM

Any A's in there?

mormegil 09-14-2005 07:56 AM

Maybe it will be that Es are the key

Guinevere 09-14-2005 02:06 PM

ISN'T A E very useful to thee ? ;)

The love of Arda was set in your hearts by Ilúvatar, and he does not plant to no purpose. Nonetheless, many ages of Men unborn may pass ere that purpose is made known; and to you it will be revealed and not to the Valar.
