gralin musicteeth · 11-20-2002, 10:19 AM

Correct! quote on Legalos

Legolas · 11-20-2002, 07:15 PM

Quote:

It will be drier above.

Who to whom? Where is 'above'?

gralin musicteeth · 12-04-2002, 05:30 PM

AHA!!! finally found it!! It was Gimli to Gamling the Old at Helm's Deep. "above" is on the wall.

Legolas · 12-04-2002, 05:58 PM

Yes! I was beginning to wonder if anyone was out there.

-Imrahil- · 12-05-2002, 04:26 PM

Gralin going to post?

gralin musicteeth · 12-08-2002, 01:39 PM

Yes, gralin is going to post! whahahahaha!

Quote:

Let us light a fire

Beren87 · 12-10-2002, 04:18 PM

Gimli as the three camped under a tree.

Beren87 · 12-16-2002, 06:51 PM

Am I correct gralin?

TolkienGurl · 12-17-2002, 03:26 PM

You are right, Beren.

Quote:

Gimli shivered. They had brought only one blanket apiece. 'Let us light a fire,' he said. 'I care no longer for the danger. Let the Orcs come as thick as summer-moths round a candle!'

Perhaps gralin is busy elsewhere? I'm pretty sure you may go. It's been a while! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 12-17-2002, 03:37 PM

Well, it had been 7 days since he posted the question, and I am correct, so yes I'll just go.

hmmm....is it wormtongue?

Manardariel · 12-28-2002, 01:06 PM

Possibly Gollum....

Nenya · 12-28-2002, 02:38 PM

I think it's Gríma, too: to Treebeard, talking about going to Orthanc.

TolkienGurl · 12-29-2002, 12:10 PM

You guys are looking these up, right? That's the point... Then you don't have to guess! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] (I'm not trying to lecture you or anything!)

Oi Beren! Where are you? We have some guesses here! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

And, if you want to be technical [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img], Pippin was actually quoting Wormtongue.

Beren87 · 12-29-2002, 06:09 PM

So sorry Tolkiengurl, the accursed parents...

Yes well, it was Pippin quoteing so Tolkiengurl gets it (as always). [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Nenya · 12-30-2002, 02:29 PM

Stupid ol' me, of course it was Pippin!
*bangs her head against the wall*

TolkienGurl · 12-30-2002, 02:52 PM

Beren, I totally understand "the accursed parents" thing! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Hey, are you picking on me? [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Quote:

That is easy to read.

Who
To whom
What is "that"

[ December 30, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

Manardariel · 12-31-2002, 12:16 PM

Gandalf?
Frodo?
Just Kidding!! No need to worry, Tolkiengurl, I did get your "lecture". [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
Anyway, that is: Aragorn speaking to Legolas&Gimli about footprints on the ground. TTT, "The Riders of Rohan"

TolkienGurl · 12-31-2002, 04:29 PM

What? Lecture? Moi? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I seriously didn't mean to sound harsh, or "dictatorish." Nor am I a Moderator. I was just trying to clear up a few gray areas. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I just reread "The Riders of Rohan" to see if this quote was in there also, but (unless my eyes deceive me) it is not, as that is not where I found the quote. Great guess, though. It does sound like what you thought! Try again! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

~TolkienGurl

Nurumaiel · 12-31-2002, 06:37 PM

I'm just making a wild guess because I don't have my books with me, so here it is...

Was it Gimli speaking of Saruman to Theoden, Gandalf, etc.?

I'm almost positive that's wrong but I thought I'd guess anyhow.

~Nurumaiel

TolkienGurl · 01-02-2003, 02:58 PM

You have the speaker (Gimli) correct, but that's not who he's speaking to and what "that" is. Hurry and try before anyone else gets here! I wouldn't know who to tell to go if someone got the other half right! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 01-02-2003, 06:14 PM

I do sooo hate to do this, but it was Gimli speaking of the runes on the slain orc's helms.

TolkienGurl · 01-03-2003, 08:37 AM

Good job, Beren! There's one more piece to the puzzle. Now, whom was he speaking to?

[ January 03, 2003: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

Nurumaiel · 01-03-2003, 01:33 PM

He was speaking to Legolas and Aragorn. "S for Sauron." Is that not correct?

~Nurumaiel

TolkienGurl · 01-06-2003, 09:41 AM

Good job, Nurumaiel! You answered 2 of the three, so you can go. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Nurumaiel · 01-06-2003, 06:47 PM

Quote:

Time to get up and make yourself presentable

Who said it?
Who did he/she say it to?

Hint: It's in ROTK.

Beren87 · 01-06-2003, 07:00 PM

Was it Gandalf to Pippin?

Dondagnirion · 01-07-2003, 10:27 AM

I am pretty sure that it was Gandalf to Frodo and Sam just before the ceremony where they were honored for destroying the ring at the end of ROTK. Please tell me if I am wrong.

Dondagnirion
"...and Faenor rose and cursed Melkor, naming him Morgoth, the black foe of the world.."

Nurumaiel · 01-07-2003, 01:50 PM

Beren87 got it! Gandalf to Pippin it was. Your turn. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 01-07-2003, 03:20 PM

Ahh, lovely.

Quote:

Where can I find him?

gralin musicteeth · 01-10-2003, 06:15 PM

Gandalf to Merry at Isengard?

[ January 10, 2003: Message edited by: gralin musicteeth ]

Beren87 · 01-10-2003, 06:26 PM

Nope, thats not it.

Manardariel · 01-10-2003, 06:48 PM

Gandalf to a guard in Minas Tirith, meaning tha "he" is Denethor?

Beren87 · 01-10-2003, 06:52 PM

Right place, wrong everything else.

Dondagnirion · 01-10-2003, 09:07 PM

I think its Pippin to a guard looking for Gandalf in Minas Tirith perhaps?

Isn't it Eowyn to the Warden of the Houses of healing? The 'him' is Famamir, isn't it?

Dondagnirion · 01-10-2003, 09:28 PM

I think you may be right on that one, I should have thought of that.
