The Matching Game! - Page 2 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Both of those are valid Sophia, but they're not what I had in mind. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Finwe · 05-26-2003, 06:25 PM

Turgon - Thingol: Both their daughters married mortal men and they were both slain in the ruin of their Kingdoms.

Tuor - Aragorn: They both married the daughters of Elf Lords/Kings and had to perform certain tasks to end up marrying those daughters.

Emeldir - Dior: They both had to lead their people to a new place to "start over again." Emeldir had to flee over the mountains. Dior had to travel to Doriath to take over the throne of his grandfather.

Eruanna · 05-27-2003, 08:21 AM

They are the matching pairs I had in mind, though for slightly differing reasons:

Emeldir / Dior, for the reasons you stated and both their fathers were named Beren.

Tuor / Aragorn, both fostered by Elves and married the daughters' of Elven leaders.

Turgon / Thingol, both were slain and called "The Hidden King"

You matched the pairs and your reasons were just as good as mine....so your go. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

NightKnight · 04-10-2004, 02:33 AM

M'kay, herm...

Samwise and Elendil - Both were friends of Elrond
Barahir and Tuor - Both ancestors of Elrond
Egalmoth and Ecthelion - Both stewards of Gondor

Arvedui III · 04-16-2004, 08:38 PM

Sure. What you said.

NightKnight · 04-18-2004, 04:11 AM

So...

Folca
Frealaf
Folcwine
Eomer
Leod
Helm

And don't say they were all kings of Rohan/Eotheod.

Arvedui III · 04-19-2004, 04:42 PM

Darn it.

Eomer and Leod: Both of them did not ride mearas into battle.
Helm and Frealaf: Were both burried in the mounds at Edoras
Folca and Folcwine: Are both related to Folcred.

NightKnight · 04-20-2004, 01:28 PM

I'm gonna have to say no. How do you know Firefoot wasn't a mearas. I think he was. And all of them were buried in Edoras (except Leod), and all of them were related to Folcred. So have more specific guesses.

symestreem · 04-20-2004, 06:03 PM

Frealaf and Eomer- both started a new line of kings and mounds
Folca and Leod- both were killed by an animal
Helm and Folcwine- both had two sons fall in battle

NightKnight · 04-21-2004, 03:26 AM

Exactly what I was looking for.
