Forgotness.
 

Lorgan and Brodda.

but of course, your turn

Thanks!
 

How many times did the army of the Eldar come within sight of the gates of Angband?

I'll take a guess and say one.

Sorry.
 

It's more than one.

Four times, perhaps? (including the War of Wrath)

I'm evil, sorry.
 

Please enumerate them.

(Thread owner's prerogative. ;) )

Curses!
 

And whoops! I was counting times they came into sight of Thangorodrim.

They came within sight of the gates of Angband in the Dagor Aglareb, the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, and the War of Wrath. The Dagor Aglareb actually says within sight of the gates of Angband, in the Nirnaeth elves got to Angaband's steps, so I assume it was within sight of the gates, and in the War of Wrath I'm also assuming some Vanyar and Noldor got within sight. Angband was destroyed in that battle, after all.

Four was right.
 

You need one more, one that happened earlier.

They were close to the gate then, surely they must see it. ;)

ehem

fingolfins host, when they cross the grinding ice? i believe it says they beat on teh doors, but noone comes out.

Yes.
 

Your turn, and welcome to the Downs. :)

Thag you very buch
 

Sorry for the delay; couldn't lay hands on a copy of the silmarillion.

Who was the first to openly mention the Kinslaying in Middle-earth?

mandos was it not

um i was thinking elf, sorry.

That would be Galadriel to Melian

Galadriel it was not.

Maedhros?

Neither was it Maedhros. This is the first elf to openly speak of the kinslaying.

Was is Fëanor?

Fingolfin?

Aegnor or Angrod?

man, i hope im reading the part right. it wasn't any of these.

Finarfin?

Finrod?

it says that wispered tales went abrode about the kinslaying, but Thingol is the first to actually mention it; and since he is speaking to finrod, i'll give it you you gil-galad. carry on:)

So, who killed a son of Mîm?

I believe one of Turin's outlaws shot him with an arrow when he ran away. Khîm i believe it was.


EDIT ~*~*~*~*~*~

What is the name the elves called an ent?

Enyd?

Nope :D

D'oh!
 

Shepherd of the Trees?

Snope

Onodrim?

Nope :D

Onod = An ent

(Enyd is plural, that is "ents". Onodrim is the name for the race ents... For comparison, A man, Men and Mankind)

:D exactly! Your go Telchar!
