I think I got the whole sentence, more of less, but I'm just not able to place it!
![]() I've been looking for the Outer Lands everywhere but not in the right story, it seems... ![]() Would you please add the E's to confirm my guess of words #9 and 15 ?

The alphabet still has some clues to offer for this quote - anyone going to try before time's up?

As far as I can see, the quote is:
"No one from the Outer Lands is supposed ever to come here; and few ever do now." But I still haven't found from which of the Minor Works it is. Perhaps someone else will recognise it now?

The quote is correct, Guinevere! So far, so good - now, try to recall who does some unexpected traveling to unusual places...

Time's up!
Shall I give you the answer or just leave it a mystery and start a new quote?

Heck, I kept hoping that someone of the other participants would eventually find it! (Where is our all-knowing wizard?!)
I am just not able to spot it skimming through the books. So I have given up. But please do solve this mystery first before starting a new quote, Esty! I

It was spoken by Uin, the whale, to Roverandom and the Mer-Dog, whom he had taken for a ride to forbidden territory, within sight of Faery. At this point of the tale, the children's story touches his Legendarium!
