So the other has at least two things in common with the known character. All we know is:
"... the spears that were made for the armies of the great King Bladorthin (long since dead), each had a thrice-forged head and their shafts were inlaid with cunning gold, but they were never delivered or paid for..."
Possible links are:
- spears
- something forged, maybe more than once
- something inlaid with gold
- something never delivered
- something never paid for
- something found in the hoard of Smaug.
Smaug was probably responsible for the non-delivery of the spears, so our mystery guest is [7] long dead or long born pre-Smaug.
The subject is also fated to 'Black pit' (Moria? The Void?),
and something has been said about that fate,
has a throne (or final resting place?) in cold, dark stone
has some majestic quality (Royalty? The first of a type?)
has a proper name, rather than a title alone.

I'm not sure how I'd handle being in your shoes either. I'm content however you choose to respond. It's good to know you're still keeping an eye on the thread though.
