The Saucepan Man 09-29-2003 05:01 PM

Ah, I see it now. It's from Appendix A to LotR:

Quote:

Do not pursue him! He will not return to this land. Far off yet is his doom, and not by the hand of man will he fall.
Glorfindel to Earnur, concerning the fate of the Witch King.

It was the "not by the hand of man" that got it for me. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Guinevere 09-30-2003 12:42 PM

Well done, SaucepanMan! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] please proceed!

The Saucepan Man 09-30-2003 06:19 PM

Guinevere 10-01-2003 03:07 PM

[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Got it!
Quote:

"Is that all you know? Why don't we search them and find out? We might find something that we could use ourselves."
That's one of the orcs (or Uruk-Hais) who have kidnapped Merry and Pippin, talking to another orc.
(I had guessed quite a lot before, but it was finding out "search" that put me on the right track!) [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

The Saucepan Man 10-03-2003 09:55 PM

Yup, that's it, Guinevere, Queen of the Quotes. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Guinevere 10-04-2003 09:54 AM

gilraën 10-06-2003 04:12 PM

I think this is it.....I recognised Beleriand and then the rest made sense [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

Thus ended Beleg Strongbow, truest of friends, greatest in skill of all that harboured in the woods of Beleriand in the Elder Days, at the hand of him whom he most loved; and that grief was graven on the face of Túrin and never faded.

Guinevere 10-06-2003 05:20 PM

Yes, that's it! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] You found it with only 3 letters! Kudos!!

Eruanna 10-22-2003 01:50 PM

It's been more than ten days, and I'm sure that Gilraën would like us to carry on [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
So......

Sleepy Ranger 10-24-2003 02:54 PM

I used to play before but then I stopped but now I'm back so if no one minds I'm joining again.
Can I have a C?

Oooh, an "E" please.
