"Cloven Vale"

or perhaps Imladris?

Gil-Galad · 01-15-2005, 06:04 PM

nope

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 01-15-2005, 07:19 PM

But.....but....Karningul is the Westron name for Rivendell/Imladris, meaning a deeply-cut, steep sided valley.

Or is there some other name for Rivendell that you are looking for? The Last Homely House?

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 01-15-2005, 07:21 PM

...Or the First Homely House, or the House of Elrond....

Gil-Galad · 01-15-2005, 07:41 PM

Looing at the enclyclopedia of Arda aren't ya?

anyways its First Homely House...

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 01-15-2005, 09:43 PM

Actually, I wasn't - I happen to be a fan of Imladris.

Russandol

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-16-2005, 03:05 PM

er, that, I suspect, *glances above* was probably his mother's nickname for him...

Better known as Maedhros.

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 01-17-2005, 09:25 PM

Absolutely. Your question

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-17-2005, 09:56 PM

Yôzâyan .

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-17-2005, 10:15 PM

Númenor?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-17-2005, 10:37 PM

Indeed. Goodness you people are sharp.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-17-2005, 10:40 PM

Rochon Methestel.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-17-2005, 10:58 PM

Well, Rochon Methestel is a song remembering Borondir in specific and the Battle of Celebrant in general, but I'm not sure that Borondir is Rochon Methestel. It translates to "rider of the last hope".

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-17-2005, 11:01 PM

I always thought he was the Rider of Last Hope.

Take the thread, anyway.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-17-2005, 11:10 PM

Perhaps he was. I'd never have figured it out without my handy dandy copy of Hisweloke's dictionary. I must go now and prepare something sufficiently nasty.

Eureka, I have found it: Uilos.

Feanor of the Peredhil · 01-18-2005, 08:01 PM

Nasty indeed, Sophia. Uilos is the Sindarin form of Oiolosse, which is Taniquetil.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-18-2005, 08:12 PM

Ah, but it also means something else. See if you can find it now...

Feanor of the Peredhil · 01-18-2005, 08:44 PM

Cruel and nasty, we shall be. As the name may have only referred to the summit, the answer may be as simple as Ilmarin, which are the halls built upon the summit.

However, considering 'Oiolosse' was simply the most common name used, there are also Amon Uilos, Mount Everwhite, the White Mountain, the Holy Mountain, Elerrina, the Hill of Ilmarin, and the Mountain to choose from.

Fea [has handy dandy references]

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-18-2005, 10:54 PM

Perhaps I'm nastier than I should be.

There is still another meaning. One I might add (if I wanted to give you a clue) which has personal significance to me. And nothing to do with Oiolosse

Sophia

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 01-19-2005, 05:02 PM

Uilos, also know as alfirin or simbelmyne. A pretty white flower

That what you were looking for? I believe that Amon Uilos was named for these flowers that adorned it.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-20-2005, 12:50 AM

Sorry, Fea, but Celebriel has it.

*Points at her pt, snickers at her own audacity* Hence personal significance... it was simbelmyne.

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 01-20-2005, 03:34 PM

Well, I don't have my books with me right now, so here goes from memory:

Ilverin

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-21-2005, 12:17 AM

Littleheart, son of Bronweg?

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 01-21-2005, 08:37 PM

:claps:

Well done. your turn

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-21-2005, 10:53 PM

Belaurin

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-23-2005, 10:41 PM

Anyone? Anybody at all?

luthien-elvenprincess · 01-24-2005, 05:59 PM

Palurien?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-24-2005, 09:30 PM

And in exchange, I give you the thread!

luthien-elvenprincess · 01-25-2005, 07:15 PM

Thanks Nilp.

Coimas

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-25-2005, 09:34 PM

Oh, sorry. You want some lembas?

Bear with him. Tolkien's Letters is getting to him.

luthien-elvenprincess · 01-27-2005, 12:10 PM

Correct. (cleans up crumbs left behind)

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-27-2005, 06:53 PM

asëa aranion

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-27-2005, 07:06 PM

Kingsfoil, my friend. Or perhaps you mean Athelas.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-27-2005, 07:49 PM

Ask away!

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-29-2005, 02:18 AM

Mar Vanwa Tyalièva

Feanor of the Peredhil · 01-29-2005, 03:40 PM

The Cottage of Lost Play, praps, or be this tricksier than the last of yours?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-29-2005, 03:52 PM

Nope, I'm playing nice today.

Edit: and lest we get confused, by "Nope" I mean, yes you're right, go ahead.

Feanor of the Peredhil · 01-31-2005, 04:13 PM

All right... here she be:

Ship-lord

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-31-2005, 10:59 PM

Tarannon Falastur?

Wait: she??

Feanor of the Peredhil · 02-01-2005, 07:44 AM

Argh, the question be she, the answer be he. And yer answer be incorrect. Try again, my friend.
