A non-coherent reminder is just as worthless as no reminder at all.

Legolas, 'tis your turn.

Legolas · 05-27-2003, 10:50 PM

Quote:

For vengeance and redress of their loss the Noldor came. Yet all the more sure shall they be as allies against Morgoth, with whom it is not now to be thought that they shall ever make treaty.

Beren87 · 05-31-2003, 03:06 PM

Thingol to Melian, they were argueing about whether or not to trust the sons of Fëanor.

Elentarimir · 06-01-2003, 09:31 AM

Thingol to Melian doesn't sound right, so maybe Melian to Thingol?

That's my guess. I'll be surprised if I'm right.

Legolas · 06-03-2003, 09:35 AM

It was Thingol. Your turn, Beren87.

Quote:

Then Thingol was silent, being filled with grief and foreboding; but at length he said: 'Now at last I understand the coming of the Noldor out of the West, at which I wondered much before. Not to our aid did they come (save by chance); for those that remain in Middle-earth the Valar will leave to their own devices, until the uttermost need. For vengeance and redress of their loss the Noldor came. Yet all the more sure shall they be as allies against Morgoth, with whom it is not now to be thought that they shall ever make treaty.'
But Melian said: 'Truly for these causes they came; but for others also. Beware of the sons of Fëanor! The shadow of the wrath of the Valar lies upon them; and they have done evil, I perceive, both in Aman and to their own kin. A grief but lulled to sleep lies between the princes of the Noldor.'
And Thingol answered: 'What is that to me? Of Fëanor I have heard but report, which makes him great indeed. Of his sons I hear little to my pleasure; yet they are likely to prove the deadliest foes of our foe.'
Their swords and their counsels shall have two edges,' I said Melian; and afterwards they spoke no more of this matter.

Beren87 · 06-03-2003, 07:46 PM

Go me.

Gil-Galad · 06-04-2003, 03:36 PM

i'm sure thats Gandalf talking about either Bilbo or the Dwarves when they go to the Green Dragon(or Smaug?)

gilraën · 06-04-2003, 03:59 PM

Or ?Niniel about Glaurung and Turin?

Beren87 · 06-04-2003, 06:36 PM

I'm sure gilraën is correct. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Melian to Turin, after she mocked him for comparing himself to Beren.

Evisse the Blue · 07-22-2004, 03:56 PM

Like the title suggests, you have to give a quote that foretells something about future events.
All I could think of now was an easy one:

Quote:

He may become like a glass filled with a clear light for eyes to see that can.

Firefoot · 07-22-2004, 07:13 PM

Gandalf to himself.

Evisse the Blue · 07-23-2004, 02:00 AM

yes.

Firefoot · 07-23-2004, 05:31 AM

Quote:

"To evil end shall all things turn that they begin well;"

Who said it to whom?

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-24-2004, 08:03 AM

Melian to Thingol?

Firefoot · 07-24-2004, 08:10 AM

Nope.

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-24-2004, 11:08 AM

Some might say it was Mandos himself, to the Noldor.

And specifically, the House of Feanor.

Firefoot · 07-24-2004, 11:31 AM

Yeppers.

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-24-2004, 12:43 PM

How about:

"...curb your pride and your greed, or you will fall at the end of whatever path you take, though your hands be full of gold."

Alda · 07-25-2004, 06:21 AM

Gandalf to Thorin?

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-25-2004, 10:35 AM

Yes.

Your turn.

Alda · 07-25-2004, 05:24 PM

Quote:

"well may he fear it. For know this: it is the doom of this Dragon (and all his brood, it is said) that how great so ever be his armour of horn, harder than iron, below he must go with the belly of a snake. Therefore, ...."

Who was this person addressing, and who was the Dragon?

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-28-2004, 04:24 PM

Turin to the people of Brethil, looking for a few good men to help him terminate, with extreme prejudice, Gurthang.

Alda · 07-29-2004, 05:05 PM

You are correct sir,

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 06:06 PM

Translation available upon request.

Anar kaluva tielyanna!

The Perky Ent · 07-29-2004, 06:12 PM

Well, I know Anar means sun, so I think it means :The Sun shall shine upon your path! And I think Tuor said it upon comming to Gondolin.

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 06:18 PM

Hrum, Hoom! That was a rather hasty response.
Good translation.
You're close, but it was said to Tuor (and not at Gondolin), by ____?

The Perky Ent · 07-29-2004, 06:40 PM

Yes! Very Hasty, us ents

Hmm, Cirdan to Tuor?

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 06:43 PM

Nope.

The Perky Ent · 07-29-2004, 06:47 PM

Gelmir!

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 07:41 PM

Gelmir it is! Your turn.

Gil-Galad · 08-02-2004, 06:27 PM

wow i can't believe how annoying i was back then...well anyone can go cause i can't think of anything

The Perky Ent · 08-02-2004, 06:46 PM

? Uh...Gil-Galad? You ok? I think you've been posting to fast. Maybe you should lie down...

Anyways, I don't know a lot of these, so here goes

Quote:

Maybe we shall cleave a road, or make such an end as will be worth a song

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-02-2004, 06:57 PM

How about Theoden King suggesting to Aragorn a cavalry charge at Helm's deep?
