Is the speaker an emotion?
Is the one being addressed a particular person?

I suppose you could call it an emotion.
And no, it's not one particular person.

Thanks, lord of dor-lomin.
I guess, power or greed, to whoever comes under the influence of the ring? [ February 12, 2003: Message edited by: Nevvasaiel ]

The word "beware" reminded me of something someone said to Legolas (maybe Galadriel said it), "beware of the sea" or something like that. And I also remember Legolas saying something about never being satisfied (or at peace) with the woods again since he heard the ocean birds. So it seems to me that the sea, or more accurately, the sea-longing, seems to fit the riddle fairly well.
So I'll say the sea-longing talking to an elf.

Could be....but Denethor was the steward, not Boromir. Fits though.

Sorry about the confusion. Actually, the horn is exactly what I had in mind. The horn had been passed down, so it had been carried by stewards, so that's why I put in that part. When the next line says "he", it's referring to Boromir, not to "a steward" in the line before. It's a riddle, so I didn't want to make the wording too easy (but apparantly, it was anyway).
Go ahead, raci!

Correct, Tigerlily! (I would've accepted wood or trees)
Go right ahead.

A fate that cannot be denied
Some crave me though they can not have me Others despise my existance for what they can lose in time For things that you love can just pass before your eyes And be gone before you can stop it I know it doesn't ryhme or anything, but it really fits the music I am listening to right now. |

Death?
-obviously a fate that cannot be denied -immortal beings may crave it(?!) but cannot have it etc. I know, I'm so not good with these... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Close to death? I've turned it on its head...
Immortality? I cannot see what else would be a fate.

That's actually what I had in mind when I said life (I was thinking eternal life).
Dang it!!

You were really close earlier, Samwise...
They are persons so you can leave all unanimated things aside. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] And they are like one meaning that they look very much like one (and this reads in the books).

And here we have the winner! Tigerlily, my congratulations! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
And if someone didn't get what I meant by the first lines: Elladan&Elrohir were half-elves as you remember, so they had both elven and human blood in their veins. [ February 24, 2003: Message edited by: Annunfuiniel ]

I'll post a new one as soon as this one is discovered...
Are we speaking of an inantimate object? It sounds like it... I was going to guess the light of Earendil... but that doesn't exactly fit I don't think. |
