Tolkien

Thus spoke Malbeth the Seer, in the days of Arvedui, last king of Fornost, according to Aragorn:

Over the land there lies a long shadow,
westwards reaching wings of darkness.
The tower trembles; to the tombs of Kings
doom approaches. The Dead awaken.

Thumbs up correct, of course !

When I saw that you were online when I posted the additional letters, I was sure you'd solve it, Mariska!

Tolkien Patience, my friends!

Hehe, now I'll pick a quote with few E's, T's and A's *evil smile*

Quote:
'-et/---e/-/-a-/-------/---/--/------/,/a/----/--/-a---t-----/,--t--/-/-e-t/t-/t-e/----aet-/A---e--a-/,a--/-a-/e---a-e-/--/A---a--.'
Hm, apparently it's hard to find a quote without a lot of e, t and a's in it...

No books to hand, but from the letters given I think that it goes something like this:


Quote:
Yet once I was Gwindor son of Guilin, a lord of Nargothrond, until I went to the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, and was enslaved in Angband.
