Morsul the Dark · 11-22-2005, 03:04 PM

if thats right ill cry

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-22-2005, 03:06 PM

now thats not very nice Gothmog, coming here and stealing Morsuls victory. . .

You are very much correct.

(the stone of elendil could not be used for comunication, but only too look towards Numenor and the undying lands)

Morsul the Dark · 11-22-2005, 03:08 PM

e-e-e-e-waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bursts into tears.....oh by the by Rhune your up in Cryptic clues as well you got my clue right

Gothmog · 11-22-2005, 03:48 PM

I can only apologize! To my defence I must tell you that I didn't see Morsuls last post about the lighthouse (well, it wasn't a lighthouse but probably looked something like one), but still this was mostly thanks to you I guessed it right. But I realized early that "ancient eye" must be a palantir. It was those "three" that confused me... However, here's a new chance for you Morsul. Quite easy I think, and not to well composed I'm afraid. But this is the only thing I could come up with right now:

One of brothers three
A king one can't see
The jewel his doom
Killed in his own room

Good luck! And I hope you can forgive me, Morsul

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-23-2005, 12:22 PM

Finwë ?

Gothmog · 11-23-2005, 12:32 PM

That's a very good answer and I see that it fits quite good, but that's not what I had on my mind. The second line is the only one that don't make me think of Finwe now when you say it... But do try again!

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-23-2005, 12:34 PM

Thingol

Allthough I cannot remember more than one brother, but I often forget these things.

Gothmog · 11-23-2005, 01:46 PM

Correct! According to my sources he had two brothers; Olwe and Elmo. We all know of Olwe's fate and Elmo apparently dwelled in Doriath with his brother. I looked it up in the Encyklopedia of Arda to be sure I didn't lie now when you made me unsure

Your turn Rune (the Quiz Master ?)

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-23-2005, 04:49 PM

Thank you Gothmog, allthough I am flatterd and love the titel, I belive it belongs to NightKnight. . .

Many are my names:slayer, murderer.
The bringer of ruin I am.
I make even sons of the tallest fall

No rimes, no nothing, but I realy could not think of anything.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-24-2005, 03:53 AM

Sorry Gil thats not it

NightKnight · 11-24-2005, 01:43 PM

As simple as Morgoth?

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-24-2005, 01:54 PM

No it is not, but not that much harder.

Morsul the Dark · 11-28-2005, 08:37 AM

Witch King

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-29-2005, 12:02 PM

No, but it existet in the same periot of time. (ca.)

Morsul the Dark · 11-30-2005, 09:08 AM

Saruman....(ca.) means what now?

Beleg · 11-30-2005, 01:41 PM

Hello,

as a new member, I salute you.

For this quizz, I would say Gothmog.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-30-2005, 03:56 PM

ca. means that they existet allmost in the same period of time = 2. and 3. age

and your both wrong.

Roa_Aoife · 11-30-2005, 05:03 PM

I don't suppose it could be as simple as the One Ring?

Elu Ancalime · 02-01-2006, 08:31 PM

Ba ba ba ba ba, ba BUMP

I would guess the Ring, but Roa's got it, i would just like to continue the quiz.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 02-01-2006, 08:42 PM

How could I not notice that people had answerd?! I have been waiting and waiting. .
Anyway the one ring is the right answer.

I hand this thread over to the beutiful Roa_Aoife

Roa_Aoife · 02-01-2006, 09:20 PM

Why, thank-you, Rune.

Beauty is in me,
But I'm not for vanity's sake.

Roa_Aoife · 02-15-2006, 11:57 AM

Oh dear, is it too difficult? Is a hint needed?

JennyHallu · 02-15-2006, 12:05 PM

Galadriel's Mirror would be my guess, but I don't have another at hand.

Roa_Aoife · 02-16-2006, 07:48 AM

Well, that wasn't hard at all!

Take it away Jenny.

JennyHallu · 02-21-2006, 12:57 PM

Sorry for the delay: Will develop and post a riddle tonight.

JennyHallu · 02-21-2006, 10:01 PM

The work of Elven smiths, twice,
It is on the cutting edge.

Gil-Galad · 02-21-2006, 10:55 PM

that could be Anduril... but Narsil was forged by Telchar(dwarf) at first then reforged by elves into Anduril

JennyHallu · 02-22-2006, 07:09 AM

well I meant it for Anduril. Forgive my ignorance. Told you I didn't have one in mind...your thread Gil!

Rune Son of Bjarne · 06-14-2006, 04:36 PM

Come on Gil, give us a new one. . .

This Quiz is far to good to die like this.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 07-30-2006, 06:45 AM

Gil-Galad · 09-21-2006, 06:31 PM
