Tumbalemorna = Treebeard?? What's your source?
I'm pretty sure that means 'deep valley black' according to the appendices.

Hookbill the Goomba 08-18-2004 03:49 AM

Well anyway its wrong.

paavo 08-18-2004 04:57 AM

Hookbill the Goomba 08-18-2004 06:59 AM

Hum... Ok, but you'll probably get it now. :p
The next letter is O. So far we have;

Tuo

The Perky Ent 08-18-2004 07:01 AM

Hookbill the Goomba 08-18-2004 07:05 AM

Indeed it is! Tuor is the answer.
You win a new tombstone for your Barrow, with special features including Rot prevention for your corpse.
Take it away Perky Ent. :smokin:

The Perky Ent 08-18-2004 07:12 AM

Actually...I'm an ent, so what would I do with a barrow? I have made friends with many who dwell in barrows, but I myself am not one. Maybe I'll give it to them....


The first letter is W!

Even as an Ent you can appreciate rot prevention :p ... Wait! If you’re not dead, why are you on the Barrow downs? Intruder! :p

Anyway, is it the constellation known as the Butterfly in Quenta?

Hookbill the Goomba 08-19-2004 03:51 AM
