Ack! I'm so sorry! I've been really busy lately, considering the fact I'm not supposed to be on the computer. Oh and thanks Beren for reminding me.

Yes, Pallando B.C you are correct!

4. What is the name of Earendil as a star?

Mardil Voronwe was the first person to bear the title of Ruling Steward, if that's what you mean.

Denethor, Son of Lenwë. Leader of the Nandorin Elves in the First Age.

Denethor I, the Tenth Ruling Steward of Gondor. Obviously a Man in the Third Age Age.

Denethor II, the Twenty-sixth and last Ruling Steward of Gondor. A (foolish) Man of the Third Age.

That's interesting, Pallando B.C, because I don't think I've ever been on that thread. My best is not geography, so it was not intentional.

4) What small flower grew in the fields of Lebennin?
