Is it perhaps Saruman "speaking" to Gandalf on the mountaintop before they decide to go towards Moria. Gandalf fears Moria, but Saruman guesses it first. Ummm... I am not sure if that is correct, but it sounds good to me! [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

'I cannot read the fiery letters,' said Frodo in a quavering voice.
'No,' said Gandalf, 'but I can. The letters are Elvish, of an ancient mode, but the language is that of Mordor, which I will not utter here. But this in the Common Tongue is what is said, close enough:
One Ring to Bring them all and in the darkness bind them.'"

Oh! I got it! It was Dain to Thrain, after Thrain wanted to reclaim Khazad-Dum.(Or so I have heard from my online sources.)

Wow, I had totally forgotten about this question - that's right, Belegfanaion.

Okay, here is your next quote; who shall be first to figure it out, I wonder?
Quote:
"... it shall be set in imperishable crystal to be an heirloom of my house and a pledge of good will between the Mountain and the Wood until the end of days."
Who says it, to whom, and (most importantly) why/under what circumstances?

Best of luck, my friends! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I thought it might be kind of easy for all you very experienced people! Excellent work. It is your turn now, Turambar!

Someone like Prince Imrahil at the council summoned to protect Minas Tírith, maybe, before the Battle of the Pelennor Fields?
