White-Hand

Could be totally wrong here, but is it something like Fingolfin's heart? I remember reading something about that before.....

Rhaaa

Is it Himlad?

I cannot think of something else than the Guarded Plain for now, but I have to read some parts again.

Thumbs up

Himlad is not the Guarded Plain. . .

Anyways I have forgotten the answer, it is either Himlad or Thargelion.

Let's just say you were right.

I didn't mean Himlad was the Guarded Plain. I answered in the post before Talath Dirnen and it is the Guarded Plain.
The other possibility was Himlad, but I was more convinced about Talath Dirnen and couldn't think about something else.
I was wrong obviously, as you said it might be Himlad.

Is it said in the Silmarillion? Searching a bit longer, I can try to find the answer.

I cant remember where I read it, because I am not sure I rule that your answer was correct.

Please procede.

Actually I can't remember anyone els than Glorfindel from that house right now, so I am pleased that was your answer. (otherwise I would have to find my companion and thereby break my rule to never use it in the quiz room)

The only one I know as well.

Who was it that picked up the crown of Finrod Felagund when he threw it on the floor?

Tricky... Edahil picked up the crown but it was given Orodreth so that he could govern Nargothrond until the day Finrod returned. But the name you seek is Edrahil, I think...

Thank you my Swedish friend! And I hope you can accept my apologize for keeping you waiting with my question. As I've said before, right now there's simply not enough time... But here I go, even if it'll be an easy one:

Give an other (old) name for Lothlorien and it's meaning!

Good luck you Masters of Quiz! (By the way, who is King of Quiz? We all know who's the king of quotes, so there should be a king of quiz! Vote? )
