Ah, thank you

Indeed, it tickles my vanity to have that additional bright square. Good for me to have it, bad to be vain about it.

Back to the matter at hand, though:

Who she was to wake up at three AM to be, in the long run, dissapointed about it not only because of lack of sleep but due to lost of wonderful opportunity?

Is it Fíriel? I'm not sure I quite understand the question, but that is the only "she" who is mentioned in connection with three o'clock, as far as I could find it.

She was. Word 'wonderful' applied as the journey with elves as it would bring her wonder for sure, not to imply she in any way may have stopped the earth from catching her feet. The ground is yours, m'lady

Tolkien very amusingly describes the smell of a spell in one of his stories - what is it like?

Granted, the spell did not smell of Christmasy spices; still, does anyone want to attempt an answer at this season?

I guess no one is going to attempt to answer that question, so here's a new one:

Who was not the duke's nephew, though he had the same name?

I'm reviving this question in hopes that a minor works fan will answer it or at least ask for a clue to show interest... If not, I may have to ask a really easy question to get it moving again!
