Hewn from the beechwoods of Nimbrethil

Telchar · 10-26-2002, 01:20 AM

Yes indeed

piosenniel · 10-26-2002, 10:08 AM

In a dream Ulmo spoke to two elves and bade them build hidden fortresses.

Who were they, what did they build?

Susan Delgado · 10-26-2002, 02:21 PM

Turgon and Finrod.
Turgon was to build Gondolin and Finrod Nargothrond. Each was later destroyed by the treachery of Morgoth.

piosenniel · 10-26-2002, 02:42 PM

Exactly!

Have you a question?

Pallando B.C · 11-03-2002, 03:09 AM

Ok here's one.
Q:Who was the main contributer to the capture of Turin ( which eventually lead on to Beleg's death )

11-03-2002, 07:23 AM

Mim, I think

Pallando B.C · 11-03-2002, 11:30 PM

Correct- now give me one.

11-04-2002, 08:44 AM

What names were given to the slayer of Glaurung? There are 10!

Turambar · 11-04-2002, 09:09 AM

1. Turin
2. Turambar ("Master of Doom")
3. Adanedhel ("Elf Man")
4. Agarwaen ("Bloodstained")
5. Gorthol ("Dread Helm")
6. Neithan ("Wronged")
7. Mormegil ("Black Sword")
8. Wildman of the Woods
9. ?
10. ?

Lindolirian · 11-04-2002, 08:04 PM

Dagnir Glaurunga which means Glaurung's Bane could be added to that.

Pallando B.C · 11-10-2002, 03:30 AM

Ok this one is easy.
Q: Who was the first person recorded to have made lembas?

Telchar · 11-10-2002, 07:48 AM

I would say Melian?

Pallando B.C · 11-10-2002, 07:00 PM

Correct as usual Telchar

Telchar · 11-11-2002, 10:49 AM

Vinyamar was build near what mountain?

Túroch · 11-11-2002, 05:27 PM

I would say Mount Taras.

Pallando B.C · 11-13-2002, 09:13 PM

What Vala was the main contributer to the construction of Gondolin?

11-13-2002, 09:30 PM

Would that be Ulmo?

Legolas · 11-13-2002, 09:46 PM

Pallando, you have to answer Telchar's question before you can ask.

Gwaihir the Windlord · 11-13-2002, 11:43 PM

Lol, what a mess... Turoch, go ahead. Pallando, please in future, remember that to ask, you must first answer and recieve confirmation of answer. It isn't a free-for-all. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

However, if you want to ask your question without first answering (patience...!) you can start your own thread. Click on New Topic to do this.

Welcome though, all three of you.

Túroch · 11-14-2002, 01:05 AM

Okay. Lets see here.....oh i've got a good one. Which one of the Valar was first to know about the Quendi (the first elves)?

Pallando B.C · 11-14-2002, 03:03 AM

Sorry, i am new to the downs and am still adjusting. I thought since it was already answered by Turoch that the question was answered. Anyway the answer is Mount Taras. ( i knew that anyway )

Pallando B.C · 11-14-2002, 03:16 AM

Ok, im well aware of the rules and im sorry if i made a mess, anyway was the Vala Orome?

Gwaihir the Windlord · 11-14-2002, 04:07 AM

(smiles encouragingly at Pallando) Reminds me of my first few posts here, actually

Túroch · 11-14-2002, 03:08 PM

Your close Pallando, Orome was the Second Vala to have knowledge of the Quendi's exsitencec. Who has the first.

Lindolirian · 11-14-2002, 04:53 PM

Well now that you say that, I know that you're thinking of Melkor, but technically he wasn't a Vala anymore, or at least I don't think. Anyways, its Melkor.

Túroch · 11-14-2002, 05:24 PM

You got it Lindolirian sorry if it was a bit confusing.

Lindolirian · 11-15-2002, 05:30 PM

Who is Mahal?

piosenniel · 11-15-2002, 05:53 PM

The name among Dwarves for the Vala Aulë.

Lindolirian · 11-15-2002, 05:55 PM

Once again, you are correct.

piosenniel · 11-15-2002, 05:59 PM

Who was led by the swans' flight?

Lindolirian · 11-15-2002, 06:00 PM

Tuor.

piosenniel · 11-15-2002, 06:08 PM

Seven feathers for you! Continue, please.

Lindolirian · 11-15-2002, 06:12 PM

Yahoo! Who took the Necklace of the Dwarves from the halls of Nulukkizdin?

piosenniel · 11-15-2002, 06:21 PM

Was that Húrin, who took it from Glaurung and gave it to Thingol?

Lindolirian · 11-15-2002, 06:23 PM

Well since I only asked who, I'll give it to ya, but Glaurung was already dead when he took it, yeah, sorta..

piosenniel · 11-15-2002, 06:34 PM

I should have been more specific - he took it from Glaurung's Hoard. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

What was the Noontide of the Blesséd Realm?

Telchar · 11-16-2002, 03:13 AM

the 2sd age of the chaining of Melkor?

piosenniel · 11-16-2002, 01:09 PM

Mea culpa! This was a prior to the First Age question.

Telchar was correct - It was 2nd Age in the Ages of The Trees, and referred to the chaining of Melkor.

Go ahead, Telchar - bring us back to the 1st Age.

Túroch · 11-25-2002, 12:02 AM

Hmm this thread appears to be falling back into the mists of history. I hope Telchar forgives me for bursting in on his turn, but i'd like to see this thread have some more action. Okay here's a question for anyone who wants it. What king was called "he who looks afar".
