Nope, it's not this. I think it has been a long time since Aug 25 when the riddle was first posted, and as nobody gets it - I'll provide the answer.
The OMO was Eomer because he never had a moment of 'clairvoyance' - the rest all predicted something:
Aragorn - told Gandalf 'if you pass the doors of Moria, beware'
Theoden - predicted that he will not see Aragorn again
Gandalf - predicted lots of things; Gollum having still a part to play is the one that comes to mind now.

Eomer actually predicted something of which the opposite would come true: that Aragorn will not make it through the Paths of the Dead.

Now that's settled - anyone care to provide the next riddle? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
