I hope you don't mind, but I have already found what it is... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] (After all, there are not so many speaking "it"s in the book!)

It is the old thrush speaking to Bard, the Bowman:

I don't mind in the slightest!

Please continue!

Thank you, Piosenniel!

You chose your letters well [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] now there are already some clues!

Well done, Gilraen! (I was sure that you would already solve it!! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] ) Your turn.

Good Luck [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

'T' please

"I" please

Hi
And N please.

Did you forget the I's or are there none in the quote?

Sorry I didn't see the request for I, added now. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Can I have an E please?

A new Power is rising. Against it the old allies and policies will not avail us at all. There is no hope left in Elves or dying Numenor. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Well Done. Your turn [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

So victory is shorn of gladness, and it is bitter bought, if both gondor and Rohan are in one day bereft of their lords.
