Ah, finally! I had most of the quote, but I only figured out now where it's from

"Hither shall the flowers of Simbelmyne come never unto the world's end" ~Aragorn, the Passing of the Grey Company. Such a beautiful passage!

Guinevere · 04-16-2013, 01:58 PM

That's it, Galadriel55! I find this passage rather creepy and haunting...
