It's sort of between Beorn's and Dol Guldur, which was what those lines were aiming at.

Over to you, then. :)

Which is the woodland dell? Is that bit literally chez Beorn?

Are the murksome trees Mirkwood?

Is 'Hell' Dol Guldur?

I was mostly looking for a rhyme, but Bilbo and company trek through a broad valley (that leads Bilbo to declare the forest goes on forever); that's what I was thinking of.

Mirkwood and Dol Guldur, precisely.

I would insert a comment here, but people are angry at me for it, so I'll just talk about my dog instead.

Huan? Huan sounds like a Spanish name, and he helped Luthien.

Yes!

I thought it up the moment I read your post mentioning your dog. ;)

Last remnant of the fallen line
Lost in the rivers of time
A crafty soul, like my grandfather
My courage will never falter

The one I trusted deceived me
Which I could plainly see
In secret I used my craft
And with that, the die was cast

Why did I do this, you ask
Knowing it would mean my death?
In truth, I was up for this last task
Knowing that I'll join my family once I drew my final breath

Celebrimbor?

'Crafty' referring to art.

Last of Feanor's line ... unless anyone's seen Maglor lately.

Yup.

Your turn, in case it wasn't clear enough.

Grima Wormtongue aka Lomion 2.0?

Good reasoning, but no.

Gollum?

No. You'd have to really stretch those lines to apply them to Gollum.

But your hint implies him......

No, it implies hobbitlike things/priorities.

Mushrooms?

Closer, but no.

Hobbit priorities are food and things that grow.

It is a food item, but it doesn't grow. It's made/prepared.

Lembas bread?

No.

Close, though.

I put 'pale' to make the riddle a little harder. I might have said 'white.'

Earth-bread?

You mean Mim's stuff? No.

Cram, then?



Or Cramsome bread?

No.

Think of somewhere where there wasn't as much food as a hobbit desired.

Not in the Wild.

Minas Tirith, the White City?

Right place.

So what's the food item?

White cakes?

Yes, the white cakes Pippin has to endure all that questioning for.

Over to you!

You'll like this one. ;)

I married someone
From a different clan
Our creation
The carrier of One

Some say I caused our demise
Some say it was he
Whatever the case may be
The truth shall remain a mystery

That's Primula talking. ;)

You win a virtual cookie, and the right to write a new riddle.

Can you make the riddle now?

I mean, it was a pretty delayed put-down, but 'I wouldn't give Feanor a single one of my hairs, but you, you squat bearded creature, you can have three!' remains classic despite that.

Mandos might actually be sadistic enough to tell him, too!

Your turn. :)

I thought you didn't partake in this game? :p
