The kevlar were all animate beings under the care of Yavanna, except the Children of Ilúvatar, Ents, and Dwarves. The eagles of Manwë were the greatest of these.

Good job! Go ahead, Eruwen. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Eruwen 11-16-2002 08:24 PM

Ok.......

This one might take a little looking up to find. According to the family tree of the Baggins family in Hobbiton, in what relation was Meriadoc Brandybuck to Frodo Baggins?
(It's not that hard, but you might have to look it up if you don't know that much about the family line.)

TolkienGurl 11-16-2002 08:54 PM

Frodo was his second cousin, I believe. I'm not very good at reading family trees so please forgive me if it is wrong!

Eruwen 11-16-2002 09:37 PM

Yes! You are right. I actually had to go look and remind myself for a sec there. But your go Tolkiengurl.

TolkienGurl 11-17-2002 03:44 PM

How do you say book in Quenya?

Durelin 11-17-2002 05:07 PM

Whoa! I'm searching, can't find it!

Cúdae 11-17-2002 08:06 PM

book: parma

Am I right? If I am, it's a first.

TolkienGurl 11-18-2002 12:11 PM

Yes, you are right, Cudae! Go ahead! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Cúdae 11-18-2002 07:18 PM

Yay, I was right!

Next question:
What are the names given to Maedhros by his father and by his mother? Not his parent's names, the ones they gave to him. Hint: Both are in Quenya.

Cúdae 11-19-2002 06:23 PM

I'm handing out another hint because I think my question was a bit hard.
HINT: Maedhros' father-name means "third Finwe" and his mother name means close to the same, if not the same, as "Maedhros."

Hope it helped.

Legolas 11-19-2002 11:14 PM

Not difficult at all.

Father-name: Nelyafinwe, 'Third Finwe'
Mother-name: Maitimo, 'Well-shaped One'

Cúdae 11-20-2002 07:05 PM

Yes! I was a little worried that it might have been too hard, but I see that I am wrong.

Go ahead.
