V?

CHAIN TV

"---/ hav-/ ---n/ -nt-/, -/ -in-/, -nt-/ --t/ --/ -an---n/ -----t/, -hich/ in/ ----/ t-n---/ ---/ ca--/ th-/ -nt----/. -i-/ ---/ thin-/ that/ th-/ na--/ -a-/ -iv-n/ -n--/ in/ i---/ -anc- ?"

Merry Christmas!

AGH! I know it but I don't know the whole thing and I don't know what book it's in. :(

The last part is "Did you think that thy name was given only in idle fancy?"

"---/ hav-/ ---n/ -nt-/, -/ -in-/, -nt-/ --t/ --/ -an---n/ -----t/, -hich/ in/ ----/ t-n---/ ---/ ca--/ th-/ -nt----/. Did/ you/ think/ that/ thy/ name/ was/ given/ only/ in/ idle/ fancy ?"

You're KILLING me :Merisu:

Oh, I just realized I didn't give a guess.

How about O?

I know the second word is HAVE, but the fourth word can be ENTS or ONTO, or maybe something else. So let's clear that up.

I'm leaning strongly towards Lord of the Rings.

You have...something...maybe about Ents? Was it Gandalf that said this?

HAVOC TIN

"-o-/ hav-/ ---n/ -nt-/, O/ -in-/, -nt-/ o-t/ o-/ -an-o-n/ -o---t/, -hich/ in/ -o--/ ton---/ -o-/ ca--/ th-/ -nt-oo-/. -i-/ -o-/ thin-/ that/ th-/ na--/ -a-/ -iv-n/ on--/ in/ i---/ -anc- ?"

(O was a very good choice! :) I was wondering why you didn't ask for more vowels...)

Oohh O was a good one!

"You/ have/ seen/ Ents/, O/ -in-/, Ents/ out/ of/ Fangorn/ Forest/, which/ in/ your/ tongue/ you/ call/ the/ Entmoot/. Did/ you/ think/ that/ thy/ name/ was/ given/ only/ in/ idle/ fancy ?"

Is the last bit "king"?

Now you nearly got it!
the sixth word is indeed "King"
posted by Blind Guardian: ;)
and yes, it was Gandalf who said that to Theoden

There are two mistakes though: it's Entwood, not Entmoot! And of course not "thy" name, but "the name"

Do you want me to continue or should we wait a bit and see if Morsul joins us again?

Okay I'll just throw one up here in case someone wants to participate

"----, --- ---- -- --- ----, ---- ------- ----. ---- -- --- ---, --- ---- -- --- ----. --- -- ---- --- --- ---- --- ------ -- --- -------. ---- ----- -- -- ---- --?"

I'll start rightaway with asking my favourite letter: O

"----, --- ---- -- -o- -o--, --o- ----- -o ----. ---- -- --- ---, --- ---- -- --- ----. --- -- ---- -o- --- -o-- --- ------ -o o-- ----o--. ---- ----- -- -o ---- --?"

I missed a space at the end of the first sentence. It's corrected now.

Let's have some T, please

"----, t-- T--- -- -o- to--, --o- ----t to ---t. ---- -- --- ---, --- ---- -- t-- ----. --t -- ---- -ot --t -o-- --- ------ to o-- ----o--. ---t ----- -- -o --t- -t?"

OT

S please

Wait, I think I found it! :) The last sentence seems to be "What shall we do with it?"
and that leads me to the Council of Elrond:

"Well, the Tale is now told, from first to last. Here we all are, and here is the Ring. But we have not yet come any nearer to our purpose. What shall we do with it?"

Yes it is! Wow that was easy :D

Picking this up upon request. :)


"-------, - -------! ---- --- --- --- -- ---, --- ---- ---- ---- ---? ---- --- --- ---? ---- ---- -- ---- ----- ----? --- ---- --- ---- -- ---------------, --- ---- --- -- ---- --- ----, ---- --- ------ -- ----- ------ ---- -- --- -------?"

Love you!

Let's start with an N!

N


"-------, - -------! ---- --- --- --- -- ---, --- ---- ---- ---- n--? ---- --- --- ---? ---- ---- -n ---- ----- ---n? --- --n- --- ---- -- -------n----n-n, -n- ---- n-- -- ---- --n ----, ---n --- ------ -- ----n ----n- ---- -n --- ---n-n-?"

I sense an ING ending so - G!

NG


"-------, - -------! ---- --- --- --- -- ---, --- ---- ---- ---- n--? ---- --- --- ---? ---- ---- -n ---- ----- ---n? --- --n- --- ---- -- -------n----n-n, -n- ---- n-- -- ---- --n ----, ---n --- ------ -- ----n ----ng ---- -n --- ---n-ng?"

F?

FNG - no F


"-------, - -------! ---- --- --- --- -- ---, --- ---- ---- ---- n--? ---- --- --- ---? ---- ---- -n ---- ----- ---n? --- --n- --- ---- -- -------n----n-n, -n- ---- n-- -- ---- --n ----, ---n --- ------ -- ----n ----ng ---- -n --- ---n-ng?"

No F?? :eek: How about W?

WFNG - no F


"-------, - -------! W--- --- --- --- -- ---, --- ---- ---- ---- n--? W--- --- --- ---? W--- ---- -n ---- ----- ---n? W-- w-n- --- ---- -- -------n----n-n, -n- ---- n-- -- ---- -wn ----, ---n --- ------ -- ----n ----ng ---- -n --- ---n-ng?"

L?

Also I'm getting on a plane tomorrow so you won't hear from me for a couple of days :D

WLFNG - no F


"-------, - -------! W--- --- --- --- -- ---, --- L--- ---- ---- n--? W--- --- --- ---? W--- ---- -n ---- ----- ---n? W-- w-n- --- ---- -- L----l-n----n-n, -n- ---- n-- -- ---- -wn ----, ---n --- ------ -- ----n ----ng ---- -n --- ---n-ng?"

A?

WLFANG - no F

My apoloies, I have previously missed a W, now fixed.

I?

That was a doozy:

"Boromir, O Boromir! What did she say to you, the Lady that dies not? What did she see? What woke in your heart then? Why went you ever to Laurelindórenan, and came not by your own road, upon the horses of Rohan riding home in the morning?"

'---- --------, ---- -- -----, --- ----- --- ------! --- ---- ---- -- ------- -- --- ----, ---- --- ---- ---- ----- ---? ---- -- ----- ---- --- ------. ---- --- ---- ----- --------? ---- --- ---- -- -------?'

I'm sorry, I somehow missed your guess - but of course that is correct.

I always like to start with an E.

'---- --------, ---- -- -e---, --- ----e --- -e----! --- ---- ---- -- ------- -- --- ----, ---e --e ---- ---- --e-- ---? ---- -- ----- ---- --- ------. ---- --- ---- ----- --------? ---- --- ---- -e -------?'

E!

A?

'-a-- -----a--, ---- -- -ea--, --- a---e --- -e-a--! --- --a- ---- -- ---a--- -- --- ----, -a-e --e -a-- --a- --e-- ---? ---- -- ----- ---- --- ------. ---- --- -a-- ----- ---a--a-? ---- --- --a- -e -------?'

EA, the world that is
