Nope, it's not the Gaffer.

I can't find it either. . . M?

And so is this. Folk have come here to grief. Aye, they have, to grief.

These, I think, are the words, but I still cannot work out where it's from. But since it seems no one else can either it might be well for you to just tell us Dimturiel! However, I will randomly guess that Gimli said it.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 12-31-2006, 04:29 AM

That was the wording I figured it would be as well. . .but I can think of no place where this is said, but I do think "Rohan" for some reason.

Dimturiel · 01-06-2007, 11:36 AM

Wow, I have never thought this would cause so much trouble.

Well, Kath, you've got the quote, but it's not Gimli who says it, it's Treebeard, talking to Merry and Pippin in TTT chapter 4.

Kath · 01-06-2007, 06:23 PM

Might explain it! I have to admit to skipping the Ents on occasion. I'll get a quote up tomorrow if you don't mind, the books are in my brothers room at the moment.

Kath · 01-20-2007, 11:14 AM
