"The tide" gave it away. I scurried to find my Two Towers.

Quote:

Be merry! We meet again. At the turn of the tide. The great storm is coming, but the tide has turned.

Gandalf to Gimli, when the Three Hunters meet Gandalf the White.

Tuor in Gondolin · 10-17-2010, 12:04 PM

That's it.

You're on!

Galadriel55 · 10-17-2010, 07:57 PM

This is a brilliant idea! I feel so left out, though - I've only read the translation of the books in Russian, and I have no idea how all the lines that I know so well in Russian sound in English! I wish I could join!

Lindale · 10-18-2010, 12:02 PM

Thanks, Tuor.

And Galadriel55, it's so easy to play this! Grab a copy in English and you're all set.
