Words!!!!!!

Hey dudes, thought I'd start a new thread. Okay, I've got a new game, at least I hope it's new. I'm gonna write something that has to do with LotR, and someone else has to look at the last letter of the word/phrase and write a word that begins with it, you can't reuse any words. Sound fun? I'll do the first one: Gilgilad.

Well there have been threads like this before and, yes, they have been closed for not being sufficiently challenging.

But I don't see the problem in a little light relief if people want it, so I'll let it pass ...

Edit: I've (re-)closed that old thread. But along the lines of the game that was being played there, it might make this game a bit more interesting of each person was to say a little bit about the character, object, event etc that they name.

Pipe

And perhaps the person starting a game could limit it in some way (1st, 2nd, 3rd age; or kelvar, or a particular race, or a location, etc.)?

Eldar- a group name for all the elves that began the great journey from Cuiviénen.

Is it worth mentioning that each answer shouldn't be used more than once within a theme?

Kelvar one of the two basic types of being created at the beginning of Arda. Kelvar were animals, whereas their counterparts, the Olvar were plants.

The Eye

Ring-wraiths. They are not technically the race, but they are not merely men either?
