And for #3 I'm thinking "woods of nightshade morrowless" might be TAUR-NU-FUIN?

And DRÚADAN FOREST for #7?

Is the password ENTWOOD?

Wondering if #6 is just ME-Lorien, or perhaps Lothlorien.

Some of my answers were actually right?

(I couldn't remember the name of the forest from later in B and L's story, only the one she danced in at the beginning).

E ryn Lasgalen - Legolas Greenleaf
N eldoreth - I came in the autumn
T aur-nu-Fuin - Morrowless
W oody End - Home is behind, the world ahead
O ld Forest - Hey dol! Merry dol!
l O rien - Here beyond the Sundering Seas (2nd letter)
D 7. In the dim morning

'Lasgalen' of course translated Legolas' name. Galadriel was singing about her own Lorien, not the one in Valinor (and how often can you get the right WORD but still get the answer wrong?). The password is indeed ENTWOOD (well done, Nerwen), but #7 isn't Druadan Forest. Think about the specific line I'm quoting.

But Dunharrow isn't a forest, is it? And I think you'd already said it was wrong?

Edoras is a town.

It"s not Dunharrow.

But it's very close by.

Ah, I had the wrong song. I thought it was Gildor and Co singing about 'Snow-white ... o lady clear.' Of course, it's Galadriel's 'O Lorien' and the next words I think are 'now fall the elven-tears.'
