A non-coherent reminder is just as worthless as no reminder at all.

Thingol to Melian doesn't sound right, so maybe Melian to Thingol?

That's my guess. I'll be surprised if I'm right.

It was Thingol. Your turn, Beren87.

Quote:
Then Thingol was silent, being filled with grief and foreboding; but at length he said: 'Now at last I understand the coming of the Noldor out of the West, at which I wondered much before. Not to our aid did they come (save by chance); for those that remain in Middle-earth the Valar will leave to their own devices, until the uttermost need. For vengeance and redress of their loss the Noldor came. Yet all the more sure shall they be as allies against Morgoth, with whom it is not now to be thought that they shall ever make treaty.'
But Melian said: 'Truly for these causes they came; but for others also. Beware of the sons of Fëanor! The shadow of the wrath of the Valar lies upon them; and they have done evil, I perceive, both in Aman and to their own kin. A grief but lulled to sleep lies between the princes of the Noldor.'
And Thingol answered: 'What is that to me? Of Fëanor I have heard but report, which makes him great indeed. Of his sons I hear little to my pleasure; yet they are likely to prove the deadliest foes of our foe.'
Their swords and their counsels shall have two edges,' I said Melian; and afterwards they spoke no more of this matter.

Like the title suggests, you have to give a quote that foretells something about future events.
All I could think of now was an easy one:
Quote:
He may become like a glass filled with a clear light for eyes to see that can.

Some might say it was Mandos himself, to the Noldor.

And specifically, the House of Feanor.

Well, I know Anar means sun, so I think it means :The Sun shall shine upon your path! And I think Tuor said it upon comming to Gondolin.

Hrum, Hoom! That was a rather hasty response.
Good translation.
You're close, but it was said to Tuor (and not at Gondolin), by ____?
