Right-o, Kath. Your go!

Thanks! It's been a while.

"t"s, please. (Are there six?) :eek:

"A" please

Of course, S's please and thank you.

SAT

No, 12 t's - does that matter?

N's?

"L" please

SLANT

E's please (Wow!! That rhymed!!! :eek: )

"Long has that been lost," (...) "Many have said that it was never made save in legend, but others say that it was destroyed."

But I can't find what it's referring to, and don't have more time to look.

I think I know who said that. Gandalf to Galadriel in The Unfinished Tales, forget what chapter. Perhaps the coming of the Istari? That's just a wild guess.

*coughKathcough*

I didn't have time to play "Palantir of Fortune" recently, :(
but at least I can tell you that the quote above is Gimli referring to the "Endless Stair" in Khazad-dûm, when Gandalf tells them about his fight with the Balrog. (The Endless Stair led to the top of Zirakzigil)

Duh! I knew it was in LotR, I knew it! And I knew it was an absurdly familiar quote. :rolleyes:

Sorry sorry sorry! Well who do I give it to!?! I mean Firefoot got the words but Guinevere got who said it and where. Ok, no decisions for me, whoever gets here and posts first can take it :D

And apologies for lateness, I truly did not see that anyone had posted on here. How odd.

I guess I'll go then.

E's then please.

and T's , while you're at it

"N" please

I've always understood that stating where the quote came from is more of a side note instead of the actual point. Getting the quote itself is what constitutes a win.

Of course it is as Mormegil says! It wasn't my intention at all to "steal" Firefoot's turn ! ;)

S, please

You stole my letter!!!! :eek: Oh well, go with another one. A's please.

NEATS

"O" please can't quite get it.

ASTONE How's that?

How about some H's?

“But now my heart is doubtful. The world changes, and all that once was strong now proves unsure.”

Theoden King about the Hornburg and yes it gave the words I needed thanks.

Sure thing! Your go.

Thanks

One question I had for Guinevere and Firefoot does it necessarily need to be an actual quote, that is somebody saying something or can it be anything from the books?

Let's start off with some S's. (Go figure. :rolleyes: )

So..."o"s?

SO

"--s,/----/---/---/s---/---/so---,/(...)/s--/--s/----/-----/-/s---/---/o--/-o/---/so--/--s-,/--o--/----/--/-o--/--o."

Well, I've been playing this game since 2002, and up to now we've as a rule taken actual quotes, or part of songs and poems. (with some rare exceptions, I believe)
It would be much harder if we take just some random piece of narrative, wouldn't it ? Though there are some well-beloved narratives that would easily be recognizable too.

I'd like to see the T's, please.

SOT

"--s,/t---/---/---/s---/---/so---,/(...)/s--/--s/----/--t--/-/s--t/---/o--/to/--t/so--/--st,/--o-t/----/--/-o--/--o."

That's what I thought, thanks.

Some E's please.

N's?

STONE

Can't quite get it. H's?

And the R
