It is not the Brilthor, Bree, or Bifur.

The only answer I could think of for paavo's question (and if this isn't what you meant, I'll give you the next letter) is Brego, who was made into a horse in the movie. It's not him either.

Paavo, doesn't that mean that you should have given separate answers to the questions that Evisse and I asked? I know that this was the last game, but I just want to be clear on the rules.

Anyway, as to Firefoot's clue:

Is it a mountain?

that's completely true. it just seemed that you were both after Shelob so I thought I'd answer to both of you. I did intend to say that if the answer doesn't satisfy you, just ask the same question again, but somehow I didn't.
sorry for the confusion

And Firefoot you are one shrewd woman Brego is excatly what I was looking for! And I thought I was clever and would get the next letter...


EDIT: lets see how you manage this! is it a sword that talks?
