This is a strange quote - I can make out most of it, but I can't find a context to make it make sense.

D's?

I'm with Firefoot on this - A's please.

I'm glad this is difficult. I've been hoping to find one that could stump Firefoot a bit

. Also, I'm sorry I forgot one "N" but living on less than 3 hours of sleep I think that's pretty good

"Do not ask me!" said Erendis. "I do not know. Never, perhaps. But do not trouble yourself; for you have a mother, and she will not run away while you love her."

Erendis to Ancalimë.

Edit: I did get it before the M's. Honest.

mormegil · 07-16-2005, 10:03 AM

Correct and good job!

Getting me back eh?

"A" please

Guinevere you're simply awesome. I knew that you could get it if you were around. Bravo again! Truly.

Firefoot · 07-16-2005, 03:40 PM

Correct, of course.

Guinevere · 07-16-2005, 04:06 PM

Thank you!

I always feel a bit bad when the others have asked the letters and I just pop in and solve it.

Well, here is a new one to ponder over:

"----/ --/ -----/, ----/," (.......) "---/ -/ ----/ -----/ ---/ ---/ -----/ ---/ --/ -/ ---/; ----/ --/ ---/ -----/ ---/ ----/ ----- (-) -----/ ---/ -------/ ------/. ---/ -----/ -/ ---/ --/ -----/ -/ ----/ ---/ --/ -------/ --/ ---/ ----/."

But I can update only in the morning, since it is already midnight now!

Kath · 07-16-2005, 04:07 PM

Don't feel bad, it'll just encourage us to get better. The day we beat you and/or Firefoot will be a grand day indeed!

And E's please when you're back.
