Galadriel55 · 10-31-2010, 08:24 AM

Turin is related to Hador! He's the Lord of Dor Lomin.
Do you mean that it's a person from Hador who is not closely related to Turin?
The only gues I have in that case is Labadach. Or maybe one of those people who helped Turin escape after he killed Brodda. But isn't that still their dynasty?
Or maybe it was Elros, since he's Hador by his grandfather Tuor. But he's still related to Turin, although distantly.

Pitchwife · 10-31-2010, 02:46 PM

I said the person in question wasn't related to Turin in the sense of family kinship (but still could be connected to him in other ways), and was of the people ruled by the House of Hador but not of the dynasty=the ruling family, to which Turin belonged. No contradiction here.

But to spare you any further guesses, you're right, it's Sador, nicknamed Labadal (whom for some reason you keep calling Labadach). Well guessed, take the thread!

Galadriel55 · 11-01-2010, 05:15 AM

For some reason I keep thinking of him as Labadach.

OK! I'm ready to go! This should be an easy one.

Galadriel55 · 11-03-2010, 05:19 PM

Anyone wanna ask a question?

Pitchwife · 11-04-2010, 04:12 PM

Ah sorry, I meant to, but quite forgot about it. Blame Werewolf.

Is it an object?
