#4 Death Down ?

'Tis not...

2. Moria?
6. Bag-End?

2 is close, 6 is far away

#2 Chamber of Mazarbul ?

#6 Oxford? Sandfield Road ?

2 still holds its mystery.
6 is indeed Sandfield Road, Turambar!

5 - Close.

#3 Thirty-three ?

#5 Mid-Summer's Day, or Eve ?

<font size=1 color=339966>[ 11:50 AM December 11, 2003: Message edited by: Turambar ]

3 - Knice knumber, but knot that one, knimble plum-gatherer!
5 - Master of Doom, again close!

Thirty-two, then - last year of the carefree tweens ?

#5 Overlithe ? Or, more topically, Yule ?

2) Utumno?

7) Isenmouthe?

2 - Nay.
3 - Too old. Think of another word for angst.
5 - Close again. When ye rede it write.
7 - Isenmouthe (ice in mouth). Yes, Finwe
~~~~~
Dexter, sinister, dexter.

4) Barrow?

Hmmm. #3 Twenty-four (angst = fear = vier) ?

3 - Think Elvish.
4 - Think English. Hint: Denethor was awfully anxious to be there.

#3 Ten ? (S. caer, sounds like "care") [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

3 - More elvish than that. Too young, too.
I'll start giving hints for #1 only after first guess.
~~~~~
"Eldest first, or quickest first?"

Last attempt for #3 - Twenty-four (CANTA RASTA) ?

3 - Sorry! This one's toltolly tengwar. And I must away...

Ah - is #3 twenty ? (Tengwa 20 is nwalme = "torment".)

Turambar, yes, nwalme is the clue!
~~~~~
"I'm in a hurry now. Evening will follow day."

4) Tomb? Grave?

4 - The Tombs, is correct, Finwe! Denethor headed there with sickly Faramir.

1. Company?
2. Azanulbizar?
5. Elves' New Year?

No, no and... no. Keep quessing, I think the pass is getting obvious, however.
1 - Another group was there, albeit briefly
5 - Turambar's last guess was closer, wordwise

How about just lithe for #5 ?

#2 Misty Mountains?

<font size=1 color=339966>[ 1:39 PM December 12, 2003: Message edited by: Turambar ]

#2 - You may have to look in the SIL to find this dark Home. Is this thread limited to LOTR?
#5 - So close you're tickling me!

#2 Angband ?

#5 Overlithe?

2 - Yea, Friend, and
5 - Nay, you've already used that guess and it's still wrong. You might have to be a Breelander to get this one.

The Summerdays ?

You're hot, 'tis the correct time of year to be enjoying the May-Honey

Thrimidge ? [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

[img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Alas! No. Hint: About the brew and the bees; bees gather the honey in that month of blooming, so anyone making a mead (honey added) drink is going to have to wait 'til the bees are done to gather it, then make the mix and wait a bit for it to ferment.

1) Fornost? Norbury?

Ah, Noldorian, #1 is a grouping of ... characters (as opposed to place or thing)

1) Rangers? Dunedain?

Nice group, Finwe, but Butterbur's still not happy about #1's grouping.

5) Forelithe? Afterlithe? Lithe?

Afterlithe is correct, Finwe! Surely you have the password on the tips of your fingers, also.
