How about R?

Ibrīnišilpathānezel 08-10-2010 01:26 PM

Ah, that may give it away. :)

Indeed!:D (though I could only make out "labour", "Ring-bearer" and "accomplished")

Quote:

"By the labour and valour of many I have come into my inheritance. In token of this I would have the Ring-bearer bring the crown to me, and let Mithrandir set it upon my head, if he will; for he has been the mover of all that has been accomplished, and this is his victory."
Aragorn at his crowning.

Ibrīnišilpathānezel 08-10-2010 02:16 PM

Quite right! Which shows that sometimes, it only takes one key letter. :D The floor is yours!

Guinevere 08-11-2010 01:52 PM

Thank you, Ibri! :)

"Give him pity nonetheless," (said Hśrin). "An honest hand and a true heart may hew amiss; and the harm may be harder to bear than the work of a foe."

Hśrin to Morwen, concerning Tśrin's treatment of Sador. Not entirely a lucky shot; I'd read that passage recently. :D

Guinevere 08-13-2010 01:09 PM

Exactly
 
Well done, Ibri! http://www.myrias.de/Templates/Elron.../notworthy.gif
Besides being a hero, Hśrin is really a very nice guy, isn't he.

Ibrīnišilpathānezel 08-13-2010 07:54 PM

Nicer than his son turned out. :D

morwen edhelwen 08-14-2010 02:24 AM

An s, please.

Guinevere 08-14-2010 06:28 AM

I do beg your pardon, I had a couple of errors in the first post. That's what I get for doing something later in the evening after spending a day trying to survive the heat and humidity. Must've sweated out a part of my brain.... :rolleyes:

Ibrīnišilpathānezel 08-14-2010 04:41 PM

That's it. About as good a daughter as Tśrin was a son, eh? :D

Guinevere 08-15-2010 09:13 AM

Thanks, Ibri!

"You are a ruffian and a fool. Down on your knees in the road and ask pardon, or I will set this troll's bane in you!"

Pippin to a ruffian (the one that called Frodo 'little cock-a-whoop,' I believe).

Guinevere 08-19-2010 12:42 PM

That's it, Ibri; well done! :)

Ibrīnišilpathānezel 08-19-2010 05:49 PM

Thank you. :) A relatively short one for a change....

That's it! Isn't it curious the way things can just jump out at you? :D The floor is yours, milady.

Guinevere 08-21-2010 03:28 PM

Thanks, Ibri! I feel a bit guilty, snatching it away again...but I just couldn't resist!:o
Well, here's a new quote. But tomorrow I'll be away most of the day.(no pc on the sailboat;))
