Anyway, I wanted to say Amon Lanc :D , yet I see it was (technically ;) ) already taken. So I say Fangorn, just to make it interesting.

doesn't have too, kind of hard to go from minas tirith to Gondolin. its up to whomever turn it is, they can decide whether to continue on or start new. we may get bored of Middle Earth and go to Beleriand or the Undying Lands.

Groin Redbeard 12-28-2007 05:54 PM

How about Lothlorien?

The Might 12-28-2007 08:34 PM

Sorry, but no all wrong.
From all further SW. (guess this won't take too long)

Btw, sorry, must have missed that rule. It would btw, be south of Chetwood, but I think you figured that out anyway now.

McCaber 12-28-2007 08:47 PM

Is it Helm's Deep?

Legate of Amon Lanc 12-29-2007 04:39 AM

Or is it Tharbad?

The Might 12-30-2007 02:42 AM

Tharbad - South
Helm's Deep - West

I think we are pretty much there. ;)

Legate of Amon Lanc 12-30-2007 02:50 AM

You sure it is west and not north-west?

But if so, then I say Drúwaith Iaur.

Groin Redbeard 12-30-2007 04:30 PM

I know this is a little out North-West of Helm's Deep, but is it The Gap of Rohan?

The Might 12-30-2007 04:37 PM

Nope, Leg-it already got it.

Legate of Amon Lanc 12-30-2007 05:51 PM

Okay. From Drúwaith Iaur, let's go North-Eastern.

McCaber 12-30-2007 06:10 PM

The Gladden Fields?

Legate of Amon Lanc 12-30-2007 06:27 PM

Oh no! How did you know so fast? :eek:

Indeed, your turn :D

McCaber 12-30-2007 08:08 PM

Thank you, Legate. With pleasure, we go from the Gladden Fields => Northeast.

Legate of Amon Lanc 12-31-2007 04:47 AM

What about the Mountains of Mirkwood?

The Might 12-31-2007 08:18 AM

As I doubt it's the Iron Hills again, I'll go ahead and say Erebor.

McCaber 12-31-2007 11:01 AM

Mountains of Mirkwood - North
Erebor - still North

Legate of Amon Lanc 12-31-2007 11:17 AM

In that case it's most probably Withered Heath.

McCaber 12-31-2007 11:40 AM

Most Correct, Legate.

Withered Heath it is. Your turn.

Legate of Amon Lanc 12-31-2007 12:37 PM

Okay. For the New Year, let us move to Beleriand.

We arrive together with Fëanor and his sons. We pass through Lammoth and stop on the very southern end of Ered Lómin. And from here, from the camps and firelights in cold New Year's night we have to set on our path eastwards to reach the place we want to move to.

Have fun.

The Might 01-01-2008 05:33 AM

With the sons of Feanor we would probably want to challenge Morgoth so what about the Fen of Serech.

Legate of Amon Lanc 01-01-2008 01:27 PM

Nay. Still east.

The Might 01-01-2008 01:33 PM

Lothlann

Legate of Amon Lanc 01-01-2008 03:50 PM

A very good orientation point to pick. South from there.

McCaber 01-01-2008 09:31 PM

Following Feanor and his sons, could it be the hill of Himring?

The Might 01-02-2008 05:04 AM

Maybe Mount Rerir

Legate of Amon Lanc 01-02-2008 05:33 AM

Of course, correct :) A bonus question (easy for a Tolkien-loremaster): who are we? (Or who is with us, taking where we started and where we ended?)

You can take the thread anyway :)

McCaber 01-02-2008 05:53 AM

Which one of us is right?

(Puzzlement ensues)

Legate of Amon Lanc 01-02-2008 06:10 AM

The Might is right. I forgot to quote his post.

The Might 01-02-2008 06:58 AM

Well, I know Caranthir was there.

Anyway, from Mount Rerir I suggest we go SW.

Legate of Amon Lanc 01-02-2008 07:31 AM

Yup, I meant Caranthir. :)

From one mountain to another mountain: what about Amon Ereb?

Gil-Galad 01-02-2008 12:14 PM

Nan Elmoth perhaps?

McCaber 01-03-2008 06:03 PM

My guess is the Falls of Sirion.

The Might 01-04-2008 10:20 AM

From all SW

Gil-Galad 01-04-2008 11:23 AM

go to the extreme...

Isle of Balar?

The Might 01-04-2008 12:47 PM

And going to the extreme was a good choice.
You're next Gil.

Gil-Galad 01-05-2008 09:07 PM

alright!

from Isle of Balar let us go... North-East

The Might 01-06-2008 09:01 PM

Menegroth

Gil-Galad 01-06-2008 09:16 PM

Menegroth > South-east

McCaber 01-06-2008 09:17 PM

Amon Ereb

Gil-Galad 01-07-2008 11:45 AM

North-East
