Do you want a year? If so, that's in 3018. If you want more specifics it is when Frodo sat upon the Seat of Seeing upon Amon Hen with the ring on while trying to escape Boromir.

Manwë loved the Vanyar best and of him they received something that is said to be his delight. What is Manwë's delight?

Who is this verse in reference to and who is being quoted?

Quote:
An Elven-maid there was of old,
A shining star by day:
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold
Her shoes of silver-gray.

Not quite. When Sam uses "precious" it is in reference to Gollum's term. I meant three people who use the term precious with respect to themself. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

So Bilbo and Gollum are correct, but still looking for the third.

I believe that it is the battle of Fingolfin vs. Morgoth. More specifically Fingolfin's death.
