Hmm...ah! Rómenna, the royal haven of Numenor!

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 12:44 PM

Avathar

(Those suffering from Arachnaphobia best not go there).

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 04:54 PM

Evernight

(a.k.a The Shadowy Seas. Come to think of it, there are a lot of a.k.a.'s with Tolkien).

Firefoot · 07-29-2004, 05:16 PM

Taniquetil.

The Perky Ent · 07-29-2004, 05:56 PM

Lorien, the gardens of Irmo

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 06:11 PM

A bit of clarification needed. Is the last letter above "n" or "o"?

(Lorien or Irmo).

The Perky Ent · 07-29-2004, 06:16 PM

the last letter is n! I just to the appositive phrase to clarify to make sure it's right. Sorry for the confusion!

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 06:29 PM

Great. That's what I thought it probably was. So what about:

Night Of The Void

(Of course, "Night Of The Void" is as much the lack of being a place as a place, but it sure isn't in Middle-earth).

The Perky Ent · 07-29-2004, 06:33 PM

Dor Firn-i-Guinar, land of the dead that live

symestreem · 07-29-2004, 09:07 PM

Are you counting Beleriand as Middle-earth?

Encaitare · 07-29-2004, 09:15 PM

Remirrath ("the netted stars," a constellation. Not really a place per se but not in ME either!)

The Perky Ent · 07-29-2004, 09:36 PM

Helcaraxë

Morsul the Dark · 07-29-2004, 09:47 PM

do I need that E or can i use a normal one? ezellhar

The Perky Ent · 07-29-2004, 09:49 PM

No, you don't need the ë! Rána, a name for the moon

Morsul the Dark · 07-29-2004, 09:55 PM

Atalante(double dot that e) Its another name for numenor so is it still valid since numenor has been said?

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 10:39 PM

Umm. This gets a bit tricky, may need The Saucepan Man to arbitrate.
1--- "Probably" Beleriand is part of Middle-earth, but it could be too complicated to negate the above guess, and Beleriand after the First Age (mostly) isn't.
2--- "Rana" was used before.
3--- I believe various names for something/someone should be allowed.

Perhaps a solution is not to allow more Beleriand references, to ignore double Rana use, and continue??????????

Agreed.

Beleriand was part of Middle-earth before it sunk.

Please try to spot the double use of words, since the previous last letter should remain open. Otherwise it's unfair on the previous poster who might otherwise be able to claim victory.

And, yes, alternative names are allowed, since this gives the game more scope ...

... which allows me to post Narrow Ice, another name for the Helcaraxe.

Right, well Tuor got it right, and it's been over 3 days, so Tuor gets to pose the next question, right?

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-05-2004, 05:53 PM

Okay.
The theme now is women/girls.
