Avathar?

Thinlómien · 03-30-2006, 03:00 AM

Angband?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 03-30-2006, 08:48 PM

He flew to Taur-nu-Fuin, I believe.

Elu Ancalime · 03-30-2006, 08:56 PM

Correct, Nilp

I think it was 471, wasn't it?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 04-05-2006, 08:35 AM

You're close, though.

Thalion · 04-05-2006, 10:22 PM

year 472: Turn leaves for Doriath in the autumn of this year

Nilpaurion Felagund · 04-12-2006, 09:19 AM

Still wrong. This one is closer, though.

Tuor of Gondolin · 04-25-2006, 10:27 AM

473?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 04-26-2006, 06:39 AM

Your turn.

Tuor of Gondolin · 04-27-2006, 06:03 AM

In what ways, and by whom, was
the Annon-in-Gelydh important
in the history of Beleriand?

Valier · 04-27-2006, 03:09 PM

uuummm Tuor found it on his way to Nevrast.It is called the gate of the Noldor. Turgon's people built it when they dwelt there. It led Tuor to the dark tunnel, where his trail was unmarked.

I'm not sure if that was what you were looking for...if not, please be a bit more specific.

Tuor in Gondolin · 04-28-2006, 09:25 AM

Almost there. Any specific elves using it
in Tuor's time? And why did they use it?

Valier · 04-28-2006, 11:20 AM

was it Gwindor? He was bringing Tuor there?

Tuor in Gondolin · 04-29-2006, 08:44 AM

Nope. It involves two elves on a seperate mission of their
own who providentially meet and help Tuor. But what's
their mission and who are they?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 05-01-2006, 08:29 PM

They were Gelmir and Arminas, formerly of the house of Finarfin, then stayed with Cirdan at Balar after the destruction of the domain of Angrod and Aegnor. They passed through the gate to bring a message to Nargothrond from Ulmo.

Tuor of Gondolin · 05-02-2006, 05:41 AM

Correct. of course, it may be up to
the vala to decide who's turn it is,

Nilpaurion Felagund or Valier .

Nilpaurion Felagund · 05-02-2006, 06:32 PM

Valier can have the thread.

Valier · 05-03-2006, 03:59 PM

Why thank you very much Nilp! Ok Where did Turin Turambar die and what was written on his grave stone?

Thinlómien · 05-18-2006, 07:39 AM

He died near Cabed-en-Aras and in his grave was carved "Túrin Turambar Dagnir Glaurunga".

Valier · 05-18-2006, 11:15 AM

Exactly correct Thinlomien! Take it away....

Thinlómien · 05-24-2006, 11:00 AM

I know I'm boring, but

Who was Eilinel?

Valier · 05-24-2006, 11:07 AM

I know this one! She was the wife of Gorlim the unhappy. He would do whatever Sauron wanted to free his wife from thralldom, but alas she was already dead.

Thinlómien · 05-24-2006, 02:28 PM

Correct, Valier!

Valier · 05-24-2006, 03:07 PM

Thanks Lommy!!!

what is the name of Turgon's sister and what was she called?

Gil-Galad · 05-24-2006, 05:33 PM

Turgon of Gondolin i persume, well her name was Aredhel which means Noble Elf... though she is also called the White Lady

Valier · 05-24-2006, 05:57 PM

Correct Gil-Galad!!! Your turn....

Gil-Galad · 05-24-2006, 06:19 PM

Other one of the Septenary

hope its good...

Valier · 05-25-2006, 11:33 AM

Ummm I'm not so sure as to what you want.....Septenary is a base 7 numeral system, so are you looking for another system?

Edit:Perhaps...The lamed and the hanged man?

Gil-Galad · 05-25-2006, 06:21 PM

Its cryptic, you gotta work around it

Gil-Galad · 05-28-2006, 11:01 AM

Hint: Other Head of Seven

Thinlómien · 06-12-2006, 10:39 AM

Maglor?

Though I think I'm a waaaaaaaaaaay off...

Gil-Galad · 06-12-2006, 10:47 PM

sort of way off... but sort of close too.

Gil-Galad · 06-19-2006, 10:41 PM

MAJOR HINT: think of the number seven

Valier · 06-20-2006, 12:10 PM

Ok so would it be the dwarves who got the seven rings....How bout Durin the deathless? Am I even on the right path?

Gil-Galad · 06-20-2006, 01:44 PM

not really no... what else involves seven?

also Seven rings of the dwarves would be second age
