Quote:

Then Galadriel spoke to Melian of of the Silmarils, and of the slaying of King Finwë at Formenos; but still she said no word of the Oath, nor of the Kinslaying, nor of the burning of the ships at Losgar. But Melian said: 'Now much you tell me, and yet more I perceive. A darkness you would cast over the long road from Tirion, but I see evil there, which Thingol should learn for his guidance.'

'Maybe,' said Galadriel, 'but not of me.'

--The Silmarillion, "Of the Noldor in Beleriand"

Can't believe I didn't remember that the first time around.

Firefoot · 01-31-2005, 06:16 AM

Now you have it!

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-31-2005, 09:10 PM

Name at least two pairs of elves who have the same name.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-31-2005, 11:24 PM

Gelmir - the brother of Gwindor and the companion of Arminas.

Rúmil - the loremaster, and the marchwarden of Lórien.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 02-01-2005, 12:32 PM

The thread is yours.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 02-02-2005, 06:38 PM

Name two with Vanyar blood who lived to see the Second Age in Middle-earth.

Fingolfin II · 02-03-2005, 12:09 AM

Galadriel and Elrond.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 02-03-2005, 09:52 PM

You may continue.

Fingolfin II · 02-03-2005, 11:49 PM

Cheers. By the end of the First Age, how many descendants of Finwe were alive (and who were they)?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 02-03-2005, 11:51 PM

Galadriel, Gil-galad, Celebrimbor, Elrond and Elros.

That's all, I think.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 03-17-2005, 05:44 AM

Fin2?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-31-2005, 08:10 AM

Give me the first name of the betrayer of the Hidden Rock.

Alcarillo · 07-31-2005, 01:16 PM

The Hidden Rock is Gondolin, so its betrayer would be Lómion (Maeglin's first name, literally. He wasn't called Maeglin until twelve years old.)

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-01-2005, 03:52 AM

You read through my attempt at a tricksy question.

Your thread.

Alcarillo · 08-01-2005, 08:58 PM

Which is the first elven couple to have mortal blood on both sides of the family?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-02-2005, 03:15 AM

Eärendil and Elwing?

Alcarillo · 08-02-2005, 02:34 PM

Yep. Your turn.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-03-2005, 12:20 AM

Enedwaith, from what race of Elves did the writer of Aldudénië come?

Alcarillo · 08-03-2005, 06:23 PM

He was a Vanyarin elf.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-03-2005, 06:51 PM

Yours again.

Alcarillo · 08-03-2005, 07:59 PM

Who was also known as Nóm?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-03-2005, 08:20 PM

Or, as you know him, Finrod Felagund.

Alcarillo · 08-03-2005, 09:10 PM

Yep, your turn, again.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-03-2005, 09:13 PM

Aside from Lúthien and Idril, what was the name of that pure Elf who married a mortal?

Alcarillo · 08-03-2005, 09:17 PM

Was it Nimloth?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-03-2005, 09:34 PM

Ach! Ja! Nimloth was also a pure Elf married to a mortal! Agh!

You've totally ruined the effect I was looking for, you smart person, you . . .

*sigh* Your thread again, I guess.

Alcarillo · 08-03-2005, 10:48 PM

Which Noldo has met both Ëol and Beren?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-04-2005, 01:17 AM

Celegorm?

Alcarillo · 08-04-2005, 12:57 PM

Nope, but you're very close.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-04-2005, 09:17 PM

Curufin, my next choice.

Alcarillo · 08-04-2005, 09:44 PM

Yep. Your turn.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-05-2005, 09:49 PM

Aside from Lúthien, Idril, and Nimloth, name the other pure Elf who married a mortal.

(Recycling questions, I know.)

Alcarillo · 08-05-2005, 10:20 PM

In The Peoples of Middle-earth, in Tal-elmar (chapter XVII), Hazad's mother is elven. Does she count?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-05-2005, 11:21 PM

Just because I can.

You'll have to look for another, sorry.

Alcarillo · 08-06-2005, 12:42 PM

Hint, please?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 12:28 AM

Second Age.

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 08:34 PM

Was it Mithrellas? I think she was Second Age . . .

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 09:00 PM

Your turn.

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 10:10 PM

Easy question:
Which elf gave Túrin the name Thurin?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-09-2005, 11:26 PM

Finduilas.
