Ah, finally! I had most of the quote, but I only figured out now where it's from

"Hither shall the flowers of Simbelmyne come never unto the world's end" ~Aragorn, the Passing of the Grey Company. Such a beautiful passage!

Guinevere 04-16-2013 01:58 PM

That's it, Galadriel55! I find this passage rather creepy and haunting...

Galadriel55 04-16-2013 03:17 PM

"-- / ----- / --- / --- / --------- / ------- / -- /, ---- /, ----- / --- / -------- / ----- / ------- / ---- / -- / --- /, --- / ------ / ---- / -- / --- / ----- / -- / ----- /, --- / --- / --- / ----- / ---- /."

Guinevere 04-17-2013 01:01 PM

Let's start with A

Aganzir 04-17-2013 01:02 PM

And T.

Galadriel55 04-17-2013 01:57 PM

Guinevere 04-19-2013 01:25 PM

It would perhaps be useful to have the E's after all...;)

Galadriel55 04-19-2013 07:08 PM

Quote:

If there lay no grievance between us, lord, still the kingship would rightly come to you, the eldest here of the house of Finwë, and not the least wise.
Fingolfin

Galadriel55 04-22-2013 05:27 PM

Perfect. Over to you.

Aganzir 04-25-2013 11:43 AM

Thank you.

Guinevere 04-25-2013 01:59 PM

There must be some O's (and what does "X" mean?)

(I won't be able to continue guessing here though, since tomorrow I'll be off to the Tolkien Seminar in Aachen where I'll joinEsty:) )

Aganzir 04-25-2013 03:57 PM

Indeed there are. X is a name - I have clarified it a bit now. Enjoy the seminar! :)

Guinevere 05-01-2013 03:05 PM

What, no more guesses? I thought it would be solved by now;)

T please

Aganzir 05-01-2013 04:24 PM

Apparently nobody wants to play.

"That is strange, Thorin Oakenshield," he said. "For I have thought of you also; and though I am on my way to the Shire, it was in my mind that is the way also to your halls."

Gandalf to Thorin

Aganzir 05-04-2013 05:07 AM

Well done. Your turn. :)

Guinevere 05-06-2013 09:20 AM

Guinevere 05-08-2013 06:57 AM
