Rumil has been trapped in the Barrow!
Eye Roll up, roll up, ladies and gents, and try your luck!

Well here we go,

I think this one will either prove maddeningly impossible, or someone will have a brainwave and get it straight off. Not sure which yet -here you go-


Often found at Bag End,
and though no-one mentioned me,
I must have been there that fine night,
under the party tree.

No sign at Farmer Maggot's
nor Crickhollow hideaway,
none at all at Old Tom's house,
even on washing day.

At Rivendell, the elves do tell,
Bilbo was warned of me.
But on his dragon quest and return West,
I'm lacking, don't you see?

My ancient cousin, you may discover,
in Galadriel's fair realm,
and mention of another,
but the cousin's far less bother.

But I'll be there,
though it's cold and bare,
by the seat of power,
in Ecthelion's Tower.
And you'll be glad,
my lass or lad,
to set your eyes on me.
