Guinevere

How about R ?
Edit: don't need the R's after all:

Quote:

"Well, my merry folk," he said, "will you drink another draught with me before you go ?"

It's Treebeard to Merry & Pippin on the way back after the war.

I'll name it in 6:

Quote:

For little price do Elven-kings sell thir daughters: for gems, and things made by craft. But if this is your will, Thingol, I will perform it.

Beren to Thingol, concerning the latter's request that Beren obtain a Silmaril in return for the hand of his daughter.

Guinevere

11-17-2004 02:35 PM

Exactly!

Well done SPM !
I guess the capital T of Thingol gave you an idea, but I wasn't able to write it all in capitals... :p

The Saucepan Man

11-17-2004 05:43 PM

Well yes, the capital 'T' did help, although I started out looking for a quote with "Theoden" in it. :rolleyes:

Here's the next one:

No 'z's. :p

Tuor of Gondolin

11-17-2004 06:08 PM

How about "x's?

In honor of the "XYZ" Affair (in whose administration?) (Oh, just ask
David McCullough). :)

Firefoot

11-17-2004 06:09 PM

E's?

The Saucepan Man

11-17-2004 07:11 PM

Hey - Xz?

Sorry, I've a bit vague on the rules for this game yet. Please forgive me if I make a fool of myself.

Tuor of Gondolin

11-18-2004 07:28 PM

Might/ I/ ask/ what/ you/ were/ doing/ up/ in/ the/ mountains/ of/ (awe?)/, and/ where/ you/ were/ coming/ from/, and/ where/ you/ were/ going/ to/? In/ fact/ I/ should/ like/ to/ know/ all/ about/ you/.

Sorry, this got accidentally posted as I was working on it. I didn't even know it had been posted for a while, so then I thought it might be even more confusing if I took the quote off. :o
No idea of the speaker. :confused:

Nilpaurion Felagund

11-18-2004 11:04 PM

Sorry, Tuor!

Quote:

Might I ask what you were doing up in the mountains at all, and where you were coming from, and where you were going to? In fact I should like to know all about you.

The Great Goblin to the Dwarves and Bilbo, from The Hobbit.

Tuor of Gondolin

11-18-2004 11:13 PM

Not at all. ;) I was actually thinking of The Hobbit, but the only one the
quote semed to fit was Beorn (drat!).

The Saucepan Man

Quote:

Hehe. The reason that I chose it was because it is such an un-Goblin-like thing to say. :p

Well done, Nilpaurion. :) You're up next ...

Nilpaurion Felagund

11-19-2004 11:13 PM

Thanks, Sauce!
