Half of it is en elvish. That's hardly fair.

"Elen sila lumenn omentielvo, a star shines on the hour of our meeting."

Frodo to Gildor in Three is Company.

(Sorry, Galadriel, for butting in after not guessing any letters.

)

Tuor in Gondolin · 01-02-2012, 02:57 PM

Correct. Hey, your mother never told you life isn't fair.

And you have to cut Gildor some slack, after his big scene
was cut from the movie FoTR.

I thought "star", probably preceded with "A" and from
them deducing "shines" might give it away.

Folwren · 01-02-2012, 08:18 PM

Actually, it was 'our meeting' that got the wheels rolling for me. That and "a star."

Here's the next one.

Bad(ish) news, folks. I leave tomorrow for a ten day holiday, and have no idea if I'll have any internet access while I'm away yet. So if no one has guessed this by the time I leave in the morning, and it has been determined tha I will NOT have internet, I will give the quote and someone else will do the next puzzle.
