Cheers Lindol. :)

Name three coastal bodies of water in Third Age Middle-earth.

NightKnight 04-21-2004 08:01 AM

The bay of Belfalas, the gulf of Lhun and the bay of Forochel?

The Saucepan Man 04-21-2004 08:26 AM

Those are the ones that I had, so you're up next NightKnight. :)

NightKnight 04-22-2004 01:53 PM

Name three elven kings that had realms that bordered the sea.

Bombadil 04-22-2004 02:52 PM

Cirdan the shipwright, Gil-Galad, and Fingolfin?

NightKnight 04-23-2004 03:54 AM

Sure. :)

Bombadil 04-23-2004 09:03 PM

Pair up the 6 places into 3 groups:
 
Angmar
Barad-Dur
Dol Gulder
Angband
Minas Morgul
Halls of Mandos

NightKnight 04-24-2004 03:58 AM

Angmar and Minas Morgul - Both were ruled by one or more Nazgūl
Barad-Dur and Dol Guldur - Both were ruled by Sauron
Angband and Halls of Mandos - Both were ruled by a vala

Bombadil 04-24-2004 07:24 AM

Very good! :)

NightKnight 04-25-2004 04:00 AM

Kinda like the Matching Game there...

Anyway...

Which was the easternmost region of Beleriand, and who lived there?

Bombadil 04-25-2004 01:58 PM

Ossiriand, Denethor and the Nandor lived there?

NightKnight 04-27-2004 04:35 AM

As did Luthien, Beren, Dior, Nimloth, Elured, Elurin and Elwing. :p Your turn. :)

Bombadil 04-27-2004 08:10 AM

NightKnight 04-27-2004 09:52 AM

Amon - Hill or mountain, Emyn - Hills or mountains. :p

Bombadil 04-27-2004 05:55 PM

Parfait! :cool:

NightKnight 04-27-2004 11:58 PM

Name three regions where you could find Mallorn-trees.

Tulkas the Mighty 04-28-2004 06:27 AM

Lorien, Numenor, and the Shire?

NightKnight 04-28-2004 08:10 AM

Sure.

Tulkas the Mighty 04-30-2004 06:57 AM

Where was the Rimdath?

Lindolirian 04-30-2004 02:27 PM

The Rhimdath was a tributary of the Anduin, north of the Carrock.

Tulkas the Mighty 05-04-2004 03:33 PM

Yeah sorry about the mispelling

Lindolirian 05-12-2004 07:56 AM

Where is the Mound of Avarice?

NightKnight 05-12-2004 09:26 AM

Menegroth?

Lindolirian 05-12-2004 03:42 PM

Right on!

NightKnight 05-12-2004 03:51 PM

Who guarded the High Pass at the end of the third age?

Lindolirian 05-12-2004 03:57 PM

The Beornings?

NightKnight 05-12-2004 03:59 PM

It was them, led by Grimbeorn the old, Beorn's son.

Lindolirian 05-12-2004 04:05 PM

Describe the location of Amon Darthir.

NightKnight 05-12-2004 04:09 PM

It was a peak in southern Ered Wethrin, and near it lay the only pass from Dor-Lomin to Beleriand.

Lindolirian 05-12-2004 04:10 PM

Yes.

NightKnight 05-12-2004 04:12 PM

For how long did Ascar flow before it reached Gelion?

luthien-elvenprincess 05-12-2004 05:06 PM

about 100 miles.

NightKnight 05-13-2004 11:19 AM

Something like that.

luthien-elvenprincess 05-13-2004 06:24 PM

ah...clue me in...is the answer correct or not?

Lindolirian 05-13-2004 09:25 PM

I see the river's length being closer to 80 miles, but I think NK's answer is in the affirmative. I'd say you can go ahead.

NightKnight 05-14-2004 04:56 AM

Yes, that's what I meant. I would have accepted anything between 80-100.

luthien-elvenprincess 05-15-2004 10:25 AM

What river flowed north from its beginning in Harrowdale, eventually dumping into the Entwash?

Bombadil 05-15-2004 10:48 AM

Merring?

luthien-elvenprincess 05-15-2004 03:43 PM

No

Son of Nśmenor 05-15-2004 03:57 PM

Might it be the Snowbourn?
