That did hurt! It's only been five days which is half the stale thread time. I'll take as long as I jolly well want!

Just kidding, it's just that it's so tedious coming up with questions in this thread. Right...
Rhosgobel-> Brithombar

Rhosgobel -> Radagast -> Beorn -> Bilbo -> Cirdan -> Brithombar?

Lindolirian · 01-22-2005, 10:41 AM

...cause you got it right!

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-23-2005, 10:05 PM

'coz here comes the next puzzle.

Boromir of Ladros -> Boromir the Steward.

Lindolirian · 01-24-2005, 06:44 AM

Boromir of Ladros-> Bregor-> Barahir-> Ring of Barahir-> Elrond (or Aragorn)-> Isengard/Saruman-> Boromir the Steward
Six degrees, but I fancy there's a shorter way...maybe.

Here's a hint, though: One of the contacts was "magical".

EDIT: Here's another hint: Since Boromir of Ladros died of natural causes (well, I think), we could assume that he lived to see his grandsons.

Hope that helps!

Boromir of Ladros-> Barahir-> Finrod Felagund (your noble forebear)-> Galadriel->Boromir, son of Denethor
