NightKnight has it! oh Perky, you try too hard

NightKnight · 06-22-2004, 07:54 AM

Who was said Hurin's grandson?

The Perky Ent · 06-22-2004, 06:18 PM

Hador?

NightKnight · 06-23-2004, 03:58 AM

Nope.

Fingolfin II · 06-23-2004, 04:11 AM

Orodreth?

NightKnight · 06-23-2004, 04:49 PM

Nay. I'm going away, so I'll just give you the answer. It was Theoden. Hurin's daughter was Morwen of Lossarnach, who married Thengel of Rohan. And Thengel's only son was Theoden. New question, anyone?

Carnimírië · 06-24-2004, 01:09 PM

Who told Théoden to turn back and go to Edoras?

wilwarin538 · 06-24-2004, 03:57 PM

Aragorn?

Fingolfin II · 06-24-2004, 08:30 PM

Eomer?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 06-24-2004, 09:13 PM

Ceorl.

Carnimírië · 06-24-2004, 09:36 PM

Nilpaurion Felagund has it. Your turn.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 06-26-2004, 01:02 AM

In RotK, what made Théoden not turn back from Minas Tirith?

Kath · 06-26-2004, 09:24 AM

Because Ghan-buri-ghan gave him a way through to the city wihtout having to find the orcs on the way in?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 06-27-2004, 09:05 PM

Well, maybe, but, after he saw Minas Tirith burning, and decided to slink away, what happened that changed his mind?

The Perky Ent · 06-28-2004, 08:45 PM

Because Eowyn woulda got ticked off at him? I know it's wrong, but it's fun to ask.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 06-30-2004, 11:47 PM

Yep, Perks, it's wrong.

Come on, people! It's easy!

Osse · 07-01-2004, 01:34 AM

Firstly, a wind played with the kings hair, and stirred his heart somewhat from the dread he felt, THEN "there was a flash, as if lightening had sprung from the City. For a searing second it stood dazzling far off in the black and white, its topmost tower like a glittering needle; and then as the darkness closed again there came rolling over the fields a great boom ." Then suddenly, he became brave and battle hungry, one can only assume that this was sent by Gandalf, using his Elven Ring to stir the hearts of the Rohirrim. That, coupled with the wind, was what kept him from running off!

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-01-2004, 01:42 AM

The wind will be good.

Acceptable.

Your turn.

Gil-Galad · 07-27-2005, 07:34 AM

anyones turn now...

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-27-2005, 08:02 PM

Which Rohirric ancestor was the first to ride to Gondor's aid?

Gil-Galad · 07-28-2005, 07:27 AM

Eorl the Young?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-28-2005, 08:27 AM

Someone before him. Not Rohirric, but an ancestor of them.

You can get the answer from UT, in The Chronicles of Cirion and Éorl.

Alcarillo · 07-31-2005, 01:37 PM

Marhwini.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-01-2005, 04:05 AM

Your turn.

Alcarillo · 08-01-2005, 08:49 PM

Which king of Gondor was killed fighting the Wainriders?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 08:38 PM

Narmacil II (or Ondoher).

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 08:43 PM

Yep. Your turn.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 08:48 PM

How many horses are there in an éored?

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 08:54 PM

No less than 120 men, and so, assuming 1 horse per man, there would be no less than 120 horses.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 09:06 PM

Back to you.

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 09:29 PM

Who was long remembered in the song of Rochon Methestel?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 09:34 PM

(

Have fun there! And steer clear of suspicious me.

)

Borondir Udalraph.

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 09:49 PM

Yep, Borondir Udralph is right. Your turn.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 04:16 AM

Who put the "Tradition of Isildur" on a scroll?

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 01:22 PM

That would be Rómendacil I.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 07:46 PM

Nice avvie.

Yours.

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 07:48 PM

What did the seal of the Stewards look like?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 08:09 PM

The letters R-ND-R surmounted by three stars, signifying arandur (king's servant), steward.

UT III 2, footnote 25

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 08:30 PM

Yep. Your turn.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 08:50 PM

Did Éomund (father of Éomer King) have kingly blood, and if so, from whom?
