Shield Where Am I

okay! it is basically like who am I, but instead you have to describe a place!

you can use anything for it, events, people, landscape etc.


In the land of the swift, gift it was, to allies of old, they ride to battle, they ride to ruin! Where am I?


pretty easy

So sorry! Another easy one...

Unwanting to accept its rightful leader, a city that wanes but then is renewed.

If someone answers and I don't reply before Saturday, the thread is free because I'm going to be gone for six weeks.

Well 'Teeth of Hell' makes me think of the Black Gate (Narchost and Carchost). So I'll go with that.

What calendar are you using, Elwe?

The 10 days weren't up. Osse has 4 days to ask the next question. If he doesn't, then carry on with Elwe's question.

Um... it seems I have missed my question, despite SpM giving me such a courteous respite! (That will teach me to answer correctly in too many places at once and then forget which ones! )


In answer to the question is it: Alqualondë ?

Still no.

Looking back throught the posts, I realise when I read Osse's, I didn't read all of it.

It is Alqualonde so you Osse its your turn.


Sorry guys and girls.

White Tree Way more than 10 days...

I thought this was kind of easy but...

Though shrouded in darkness, the immortal live here, alongside creatures of evil. Don't stray from my path or touch my waters, or you might not come out... where am I?

Okay so it doesn't sound like some of the others, but it works.
