Riddles in the Downs - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Correct

Round a river east and west we’d settle, (Lorien & Mirkwood)
we decided during a great westward travel. (The great journey)
But when darkness engulfed the land, (Sauron's might spread to Mirkwood and Lorien)
only the west would stand. (Lorien was protected by Galadriel and her ring, Mirkwood would be taken by the Necromancer whom in fact is Sauron)
East moved north, (The wood elves retreated to the north of Mirkwood.)
and would hide underground henceforth. (They lived in underground dwellings protected by magic)

The Perky Ent: I couldn't count your answer as correct because only the Elves of Mirkwood are wood elves.

All of you: Are my riddles ok like this?

Party, all night long

Joy in many ways

Hmmmmm, I was actually hoping an other member would answer this one. I saw the answer immediately, but decided that it was too much Marky, me, Marky, me, Marky, me in this thread since I joined. But....

I CAN'T... TAKE IT... ANYMORE!!! ARGH!... MUST...... ANSWER!... CAN'T LET... THREAD... DIE...

Party field, where Bilbo had his eleventy-first birthday.

It indeed was Party Field.

Yours again!

This one shouldn't be too hard...

Elves beautiful and bright,
tortured in the night.
Afraid of the sun,
I made each of them now a dark person.
Tough soldiers in line,
each of them are mine.
