I being told a hint is needed...

The Elvish translation is a part of a song in the Lotr. So think about who might sing a song about leaves, and go from there.

I am assuming it is in an ent song, because the elvish elements make such a long word.

I haven't however, found the word. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Leaf- las
silver- celeb, ithildin, celevren
shadow- hall, dae
shadowy- gwathren

Perhaps another hint? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

You are right...it is sung by an Ent in The Two Towers. It is also a name that was given to something by said Ent... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Sam is given the Star of the Dunedain (or Elendil), and Elanor is made a 'maid of honour' (or handmaiden) to Queen Arwen?

Hm...I PMed Saucepan several days ago asking him to take over my turn, since I have too many responsibilities to keep up with it. I'm sorry, I've left you all hanging, but since he has not replied to me or taken up the thread.

elven maiden Earwen or gilraen can take off from here, since with gilraen's last correst answer, they are tied for first place.

Sorry again.

3, including the Witch-King, went in on their own accord. Glorfindel forced the other 6 into the water.
