Hi all,
here we go, glad to see lots of guesses
Blind Guardian - I agree that Gandaf fits suspiciously well, except for the bit about the 'cousin' in Lothlorien, I guess Radagast would be closest at Rhosgobel, but that doesn't count! Oh, and G accompanied Bilbo back from Erebor.
Legate, I'll come back to...
Urwen, don't think the jewel Elessar was ever at Bag End, sorry, and neither was Aragorn, sorry Beorn.
Go on satansaloser, give it a whirl!
And Legate, asking for hints already
, I think I'll let you have a few guesses first
Cheers,
R
