Re: Items in ME

I've finally figured out barrowdowns-speak. When someone says &quot;Here's an easy one&quot;, what they really mean is &quot;Here's an obscure question from one of the minor works that only the truly crazed Middle Earth connouisseurs among you will know&quot; !! <img src=wink.gif ALT=";)">

Re: Items in ME

I think that ca be found in Silm. So, it may seem obscure, but it isn't really. Better luck next time <img src=smile.gif ALT=":)">

Re: Items in ME

Sharku got it!
It's rather possible that the one who asked the question some months ago was th same that has asked it now (I have a horrible memory).

Re: Items in ME

At the end of the War of the Ring, where were the last remaining Palantiri in Middle Earth?

Re: Items in ME

Let me think, at the beginning, there were only three palantiri left: those of Orthanc, Minas Tirith and Minas Morgul. During the war of the Ring, the one of Minas Morgul (which was in Barad-dūr) was destroyed. So te only palantiri left were those of Orthanc and Minas Tirith.

I don't know why I feel I have forgotten something, but I can't remember what.

Both right, but Durelen completes the answer. Proceed Durelen.

Re: Items in ME

Quickbeam lived in the part of Fangorn which had been more damaged by Saruman. I think he was one of Fladrif's ents.

Re: Items in ME

Sorry, I can't think of a more difficult one:
What does Roheryn mean?

Roheryn in Sindarin means &quot;Horse of the lady&quot;. He was given to Aragorn by Arwen.

I'll try to get back to the &quot;Items&quot; theme:

What two gifts were given by Thingol and Melian to Beleg before he returned to the north marches (after he had visited Turin in the wild)?

It's a bit hard to understand a question - there certainly were more horns then one held by Merry, ne c'est pas? And exact number of those is unguessable, as I see so far.
