Any guesses? :(

Pitchwife 11-01-2009 02:00 PM

Sorry for coming late to the party, and not meaning to steal anyone's thunder, but I think it's time for a new one. The words have been rather obvious for a while, it just took me quite some time to identify the speaker and the source.

My mind is now set, lord, to leave the shadows of the mountains and go West, whither others of our kin have gone. - Haleth to Caranthir, Chapter XVII of The Silmarillion.

TheGreatElvenWarrior 11-01-2009 07:42 PM

I was sure that since it said something about the shadow of the mountains that it was talking about the Paths of the Dead. I spend fifteen minutes looking for it the other day.:rolleyes:

Erendis 11-02-2009 02:46 AM

Congratulations to Pitcwife!Just when I found it,I saw you have posted it!

Lindale 11-02-2009 07:18 AM

Congrats to Pitchwife!~

Pitchwife 11-02-2009 09:48 AM

Thanks, Lindale - and sorry, Erendis! I really didn't mean to come barging in and take away your chance, but everybody seemed rather clueless (as I had been)...
Anyway, here's a new one:

------/!/----/--/---/-----/--/----/---/-/--------/----/-----/--------/-----/--/---/----/,/---/-----/-----/----/--/---/-----/-----/-----/----/?

It's a rather well known quote, I think, so this shouldn't take too long.

Inziladun 11-02-2009 09:52 AM

Let's start with M, please.

Thanks Erendis, I've been way too lazy (or, well, busy) visiting the Downs lately but now that is going to be changed!
