"My brother has been wounded, and he lies now in pain and calls for me, since I have skill in treating Orc-wounds."

It wasn't difficult to complete the words, but I had to wrack my brains to remember where the quote comes from!

It is from U.T. "The Drúedain", the Drûg Aghan speaking to his friend Barach.

Firefoot · 07-18-2005, 02:06 PM

Ooh, I made Guinevere wrack her brains? I'll call this quote a success...

Correct, of course.
