Since Urwen bumped this up a couple of weeks ago, how about I give a puzzle?
Narvi -> Maeglin (just for you, Urwen!). I can do this in 6 (assuming that means '6 names total', including both ends) several ways, and 5 by at least two slightly cheeky routes... oh, and 3 by a very cheeky route. No Sauron, Gandalf, or Saruman required. (If you include a non-obvious link, it'd be nice to get an explanation for it - that's how we learn random trivia, after all!) hS |

Care to try for a shorter route, or do you just want to post your own? hS |

Narvi>Celebrimbor>Turgon>Aredhel>Maeglin OR Narvi>Celebrimbor>Turgon>Idril>Maeglin

What's your link from Celebrimbor to Turgon, other than them being... some sort of cousins?

According to one version of legendarium, Celebrimbor lived in Gondolin for a time, where he made the early prototype of the stone known as Elessar for Turgon.

The route I first thought of was Narvi-Celebrimbor-Finrod-Ulmo-Tuor-Maeglin, which is definitely beaten by either of yours (you can actually skip Celegorm on your first one - Curufin talks directly to Eol). So I think I'll pass it over to you at this point. (I also had one which took advantage of the theory that all the Durins are the same person to go Narvi->Durin III/IV->The Balrog->Morgoth->Maeglin... ^_^) Over to you, Urwen! hS |
