Is it a person? No
Did it happen or exist in the 3rd age? Yes
Is it a weapon? No

Is it a building? No
Is it something that you can handle? No
Did it exist in the 2nd age as well as the 3rd? No
Is it a place? No
Is it a ship? No

I could, at a stretch, have said "Yes" to two of those questions, but I've decided to be strict. So, sue me. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Is it the one of the towers before the gates of Mordor? Narchost? Carchost?
