Rochelle · 12-13-2004, 06:20 PM

Yes.

7. What road is used by mourners?

Rochelle · 12-13-2004, 07:44 PM

7. To get from Tol Sirion to Nargothrond, what road would you use?

Rochelle · 12-14-2004, 06:36 PM

The Pass of Sirion?

Firefoot · 12-14-2004, 08:06 PM

Nope.

Evisse the Blue · 12-15-2004, 06:51 AM

Through the Forest of Brethil coming out at the crossings of Teiglin?

Lindolirian · 12-15-2004, 02:39 PM

Does this road have a specific name? Or would description like Evisse's suffice?

Firefoot · 12-15-2004, 05:16 PM

I'll take Evisse's answer, since the route is right. According to the UT index there is a road, but in the text there isn't an actual name and the map doesn't show a road all the way through...

Nil - 3
Lindo - 2
Rochelle - 2
Evisse - 2

10. What was the name of the pass that Bilbo and the Dwarves took through the Misty Mountains (before they were captured by Goblins)?

Lindolirian · 12-15-2004, 06:07 PM

The High Pass, also known as Cirith Forn en Andreth.

Firefoot · 12-15-2004, 08:45 PM

And we have a tie, between Lindo and Nil. This question will be for those two only then:

*Name two places where you might walk on a road or trail that is lined with stones.*

Nilpaurion Felagund · 12-16-2004, 01:09 AM

The path to Rivendell is lined with white stones . . .

And perhaps the road to Halifirien.

I am so throwing guesses blindly.

Firefoot · 12-16-2004, 04:57 PM

I'll accept the Rivendell one, but I need another unless you can prove the Halifirien one (I couldn't find any).

Firefoot · 12-21-2004, 07:51 AM

I'm going to be away for a while so a big hint: There are two different places where Frodo does before he reaches Bree.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 12-24-2004, 07:56 AM

The path to Bombadil's house?

Firefoot · 12-28-2004, 05:07 PM

And the winner is Nilpaurion Felagund. I surrender the thread to thee.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-02-2005, 09:49 PM

Slightly ambiguous question, sorry.

I refer to gift of Bilbo that was actually from him.

Evisse the Blue · 01-10-2005, 07:07 AM
