I think I got the whole sentence, more of less, but I'm just not able to place it!
I've been looking for the Outer Lands everywhere but not in the right story, it seems... Would you please add the E's to confirm my guess of words #9 and 15 ?

The alphabet still has some clues to offer for this quote - anyone going to try before time's up?

As far as I can see, the quote is:
"No one from the Outer Lands is supposed ever to come here; and few ever do now." But I still haven't found from which of the Minor Works it is. Perhaps someone else will recognise it now?

The quote is correct, Guinevere! So far, so good - now, try to recall who does some unexpected traveling to unusual places...

Time's up!
Shall I give you the answer or just leave it a mystery and start a new quote?

Heck, I kept hoping that someone of the other participants would eventually find it! (Where is our all-knowing wizard?!)
I am just not able to spot it skimming through the books. So I have given up. But please do solve this mystery first before starting a new quote, Esty! I

It was spoken by Uin, the whale, to Roverandom and the Mer-Dog, whom he had taken for a ride to forbidden territory, within sight of Faery. At this point of the tale, the children's story touches his Legendarium!

This time you really stumped me, Esty! I've looked everywhere else in "Roverandom" - I had completey forgotten about this little excursion!
