Beren's not posting, so I hope you don't mind if a post the next quote?

I saw him walk in empty lands, until he passed away
Into the shadows of the North. I saw him then no more.

Well, if no one else wants to guess that one, I will [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] :

Together we will take the road that leads into the West;
And far away will find a land where both our hearts may rest.
This is the end of the song "The ent and the entwife" that Treebeard sings.

This seems like it was a nice thread in its Golden Days, so I feel a revival is in order.

I believe I will start, since Guinevere is absent at the moment:

Back to mead,
Good luck!

If you need a hint, just say the word...
