Come on folks, it's not that difficult is it?
Well, I'm not giving another letter since that would give it away. And that, in a sense, is another clue.
|
Nob?
worked at the prancing pony "nob, he came and told me that two black men were at the door"--butterbur a doorknob is used to open a door |
Bingo
You are most correct, arcticstorm. Well done. :)
The chronicler in question was Merry, whom Nob found after shouting at the black figures stooping over him. The other clues you got spot on. The thread is yours ... |
B
This name is shared by man and beast, he chose the place of his abuse after being released at the black chasm |
Bill the Pony, I suppose?
|
quite correct HerenIstarion
|
L now, than
Thanks
L is the next. Give me, please, the name of the one who made many refuse, father of the first of the three of the same name |
Lenwë?
He was the leader of the Nandor, part of the Avari ("refusers") who abandoned the Great Journey, and the father of Denethor, after whom two Edain were named. |
Indeed :) As I can't recall no names starting with ë, I suggest you offer us a next test with a capital e
cheers |
E:
His lineage was questioned by some, though he sounds like one who rode an elf-coach. HINT: Gondor |
Eldacar?
|
Correct - good job. http://forum.barrowdowns.com/ubb/icons/icon14.gif
|
R
Between the seer and hearer, the taker of the repented, found in the longest.
HINT: Wait for it. :p |
Rauros!
|
Right through the dot!
Your thread, NK. :)
|
*bump*
Herr NightKnight von Schweden, wo sind Sie jetzt?
|
Ich bin nicht hier, nicht viel, so jemand anderes sollen fortschreiten...
In English: Anyone can have it. |
S
In the twilight, Ainu-educated, with slumbering desire for the Sea.
|
A guess...
Elwe Singollo?
In the twilight: leader of the Sindar- elves of the twilight Ainu-educated: learned from Melian, his wife Slumbering desire for the sea: Even though he had sea longings, he never sailed, finding enough of Valinor in the presence of Melian. [edit] Since he's also Elu Thingol and that still begins with E I suppose I ought to include it. ;) |
Ummm . . .
The answer begins in S, which was the last letter of the previous puzzle.
But Elwë Singollo is eerily close. In fact, I think the correct answer is in your post somewhere. Anywhen, welcome back! |
Blush
How could I be so silly :rolleyes: .
Well then, let me modify my answer to Sindar , for mostly the same reasons as above. |
And that is correct!
Take the thread, Thunder Mistress! :)
|
R, matey!
Lone blossom, love struck and erratically following.
|
Rána!
Lone blossom: Last blossom of Telperion.
Love struck: Loves Arien, Maia of the Sun. Erratically following: Erratically follows Arien, so sometimes they show up together. |
Very nice, O quick one! You may proceed.
|
A
The black, the mightiest, the fallen (literally).
I daresay, this one's quite a piece of lembas. :smokin: |
I'll take it!
Ancalagon:
Surnamed "the Black," Mightiest of the dragon-host, Fell "upon the towers of Thangorodrim, and they were broken in his ruin." |
You'll take it, indeed!
The thread is thine, fellow "Fall of the North" player!
|
N
Dearly-held payment, sheen of starlight, great in size.
*yawn* It's too late to be witty. :o |
Nimphelos?
. . . Thingol rewarded [the Dwarves for their aid] with many fair pearls . . . One there was as great as a dove's egg., and its sheen was as starlight on the foam of the sea; Nimphelos it was named, and the chieftain of the Dwarves of Belegost prized it above a mountain of wealth. |
Yep yep yep
Your go!
|
S
The taunter with broken teeth and broken neck.
|
Ummmmmm . . .
Anyone? Anybody at all?
|
A clue?
Any one at all? ;)
|
A clue!
He was an Elf.
OK, that was three clues. |
Eureka
Saeros, it is!

The gruesome details of which I speak . . .
. . . could be found in Narn i Hîn Húrin, in the Unfinished Tales.
Nonetheless, you are correct! :) |
Thanks muchly.
My copy of UT is at my parents house. A serious impediment for me.
Divider of the Great who eases the crossing and must be well protected. |
A Wag.
Sirion?
Divider of the Great: It divided Beleriand (the Great Land of the First Age of the Sun) in two? Eases the crossing: Errrrrrrrr . . . :confused: Must be well protected: In it is one of passes through Beleriand that Morgoth wanted to take, so it was well protected--until Bragollach, that is. |
Nope. :D
