Yes.
Gil-Galad - 1 Alquadae -1 What is the flower that shares her name with a weapon? |
Iris?
|
Nope. Is there a weapon named iris? However, it's not the one I had in mind.
|
Aeglos ?
|
Yes, Aeglos which is also Gil-Galad's spear. Mariska, you probably meant the iris-swords. Have to confess I didn't know about them, now I do - thanks [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
So: Gil-Galad - 1 Alquadae - 1 Turambar -1 4. What was the doom of Huan? |
didn't he fight Drauglin and was posioned from his fangs?
|
No, it's not that.
|
That he would fight the greatest wolf in M.E. (and die) ?
|
Correct.
Gil-Galad - 1 Alquadae - 1 Turambar - 2 5. What is the origin of Celeborn? (the tree, not the elf [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ) |
It grew from a seedling of Galathilion, the tree of Tirion.
|
Yep -
Gil-Galad - 1 Alquadae - 1 Turambar - 3 Having reached the middle, I decide it's time to make it a little harder : [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]grin:: 5. What is the most well known quality of the lissuin flower? |
If you mix it with the sap of Tasare, the resulting mixture is an invisibility cream.

I guess my source wasn't that reliable after all... Maybe the answer you are looking for is that it had a sweet perfume. |
I was kidding about the HP thing [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
Yes, that's approximately it - I admit I was a bit vague with this question, mea culpa. It is said in UT: Quote:
Alquadae - 1 Turambar - 3 Mariska Greenleaf -1 7. "Whatever you fare, till your eyries receive you at the journey's end!" Give the appropriate reply. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] |

Gil-Galad - 1 Alquadae - 2 Turambar - 3 Mariska Greenleaf -1 8. What bird did the Teleri hold particularly dear? |
Presumably the Swan, as they fashioned their ships in the likeness of swans and named their city Alqualonde, Haven of the Swans.
|
Indeed.
Gil-Galad - 1 Alquadae - 2 Turambar - 3 Mariska Greenleaf -1 The Saucepan Man - 1 9. "We are horribly afraid - but we are coming with you; or following you like______" |

Gil-Galad - 1 Alquadae - 4 Turambar - 3 Mariska Greenleaf -1 The Saucepan Man - 1 Alquadae, looks like you're up next. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] |
Thank you, I will strive to be worthy!
I would like to host the topic"Things that shine/sparkle" Who created the Seven Butterflys? |
Varda, and for some odd reason I despise that name. :/
|
Varda placed them, she did not create them
|
Yavanna?
|
Not quite,try again [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Aule?
Peace |
The seven Butterflys "Aule was making a silver sickle. Melko interrupted his work telling him a lie concerning the lady Palurien. Aule so wroth that he broke the sicle with a blow. Seven sparks lept up and winged into the heavens.Varda caught them and gave them a place in the heavens as a sign of Palurins honor."
Wait a minute you say , what about the sickle of the Valar and the sign of doom? The Sil has her placing the sickle as a sign of doom but BOLT pp145 refers to the sickle as the Seven butterflys! Well done Yavanna 228 |
ok
"Nahar is the name of his horse,white in the sun,and______ _______ at night." |
Well, after several re-reads it CAN be construed that Varda created Valacirca! Such are the"dangers" of the later publications.I bow to both Beren 87 and Yavanna 228
|
"Nahar is the name of his horse, white in the sun and shining silver at night."
|
Quite right!
Yavanna228-1 Beren87 -1 Mariska Greenleaf-1 Who was named Faelivrin " ,which is the gleam of the sun on the pools of Irvin." |
Finduilas?
|
Very good!!!
Yavanna 228-1 Beren 87-1 Mariska Greenleaf-2 What am I? "It shone like moonlit silver,and was studded with white gems.With it was a belt of pearl and crystal." |
Bilbo's mithril coat ?
|
That it is!!
Yavanna228-1 Beren87-1 Mariska Greenleaf-2 Turambar-1 Who is this about? " A star was bound upon her brows, A light was on her hair As sun upon the golden boughs In Lorien the fair." |
