6 letters, Guinevere! You're slipping. :p ;)

Well done - the floor is yours ... :)

Guinevere 11-09-2004 07:13 AM

Thanks, SpM! :D Well, it's hard to live up to one's reputation ;) And I have long been surpassed by Firefoot!!
Another problem is that I'm not sure anymore which quotes I have already used as "palantir"

I have heard songs of many battles, and I have always understood that defeat may be glorious. It seems very uncomfortable, not to say distressing. I wish I was well out of it.
