an 'E' please.

Diamond18 · 12-08-2002, 03:28 PM

If it's unfair of me to solve it right away, somebody slap me, okay? But the fact that it's a song and those telling hyphens kinda gave it away, so....

Gil-galad was an Elven-king.
Of him the harpers sadly sing:
The last whose realm was fair and free
Between the Mountains and the Sea.

May I join the guessing team? I think I know what it is:

"Go not to the elves for counsel, for they will say both no and yes." (Frodo to Gildor)

Guinevere · 12-17-2002, 05:26 PM

Ah, at last ! And I think I have already solved it :
"Fear not!
Long have I desired to look upon the likenesses of Isildur and Anàrion, my sires of old. Under their shadow Elessar the Elfstone, son of Arathorn of the house of Valandil Isildur`s son, heir of Elendil, has nought to dread!"
(Aragorn to the Fellowship when they are approaching the Argonath)

This game is really fun, it`s rather similar to crossword-puzzles! [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

lathspell · 12-18-2002, 09:18 AM

Well done, Guinevere.
