The last part makes me think of the Dead of Dunharrow, but not sure if all of the rest would fit completely... The second part makes me think of the Púkel-men in that connection, but then again,...

If Mith posts a new one, I will be very happy to return to the good ol' riddling habit by starting to guess. It'll be nice, haven't been around here in a long while.

At least not on first sight, for sure. My first thoughts were something like "stars" (some particular ones? Borgil. But that would not do, since they are supposed to be two), or maybe some precious...

I just wanted to clarify, because that of course is correct :) Nice job, Morsul! And, of course, means you can prepare a new riddle for us.

A clarification of the riddle, in case somebody was...

By "King of Carn" you mean "The King of Carn Dum", i.e. that would be the Witch-King of Angmar? Do I understand it correctly?

Some very, very, very, very, very good points raised here. I am impressed, honestly :) Especially when it comes to Nerwen's systematic analysis and Ardent's thoughts.

Some very nice brainstorming...

I'm curious to hear it, maybe if you think of some way to make it fit, you can then present it :)
