silmarils cause there the only ones who have an intirebook about them? I think this might be a longshot.

I thought they said in the Sil that it was unknown what the silmarils were made of, and the only one who did was Fëanor?

The Silmarils- only ones where a war(s) was waged for?

Bombadil, the Silmarils were made of Silima like Mithalwen said, but you're right in that no-one actually knows what Silima itself is.

So far, no. But I'll give you a hint. Think Geography.

Mithalwen · 06-27-2004, 11:18 AM

If the Silmarils are the O>O>O ... then because they were the only things made in the undying lands? Seems too simple........

Here's a major hint: It's not where it is, it's where it isn't! That was a big hint. But then, you needed it

Mithalwen - No, but keep thinking outside the box
