I can do it like this

Huan - Celegorm - Meadhros - Amlach - Bereg

Or if you want it longer, I can do that too.

Nope, that's good. I went Huan > Carcharoth > Morgoth > Morgoth's emmisary > Amlach > Bereg, but yours is much tidier (and shorter is always better!).

Back to you.

Do you want an easy one or the hard one?

Hard one it is!

Let's try these two who bore the same epithet....

Glaurung - > Phary

Is it too hard?

If it is, tell me and I'll make something easier....

No, no, we can do this. How about:

1. Glaurung the Golden, while young, was shot at by
2. Fingon, who was best chums with
3. Maedhros, who with his brother found the young
4. Elrond, who went volcano-spelunking with
5. Isildur, who had the guards set on him by
6. Ar-Pharazon the Golden, prospective immortal.

That last step is the only one I'm dubious about; I'm not sure Golden Boy was directly involved. (I think it's from The Lost Road; Isildur's trying to rescue a fruit of the White Tree.)
