Nope. It wasn't Gandalf to Théoden, either. It wasn't Gandalf at all. Get off the Helm's Deep train of thought - that will help.

Beren87 · 01-30-2003, 04:10 PM

Aye, that one took a bit of searching. It was Hirgon to Theoden as the call for aid was delivered.

Lostgaeriel · 01-31-2003, 09:17 PM

Yes! Beren87 got it. It was indeed Hirgon, carrying the Red Arrow. (ROTK Muster of Rohan) I had thought that 'walls' was a good clue to Minas Tirith but it stumped a couple of people. Your turn.

Beren87 · 02-01-2003, 01:33 PM

It was a good clue, good job.

Beren87 · 02-02-2003, 02:18 PM

That it is.

Quote:

... it seems clear to me ...

Dondagnirion · 02-03-2003, 12:55 PM

That would be Gandalf about the Palantir being his downfall talking about "how it seemed clear to him" that he made contact with Sauron when using it and that caused his downfall, e.t.c.

Bruce MacCulloch · 02-03-2003, 07:04 PM

Nope

Beren87 · 02-03-2003, 07:17 PM

It was Gandalf recounting his little "adventure" in Bree with the Nazgul.

Manardariel · 02-08-2003, 06:02 PM

I am sure you are correct, Beren87, since anything else would be plain SCARY.... Bruce? You agree?

Bruce MacCulloch · 02-09-2003, 02:32 PM

No.

Beren87 · 02-09-2003, 03:30 PM

Quote:

" I do not know, but it seems clear to me that this is what happened. Their captain remained in secret away south of Bree, while two rode ahead through the village, and four more invaded the Shire.

Yes

Bruce MacCulloch · 02-10-2003, 10:17 PM

You're right. Sorry, I was thinking of a question on another thread when I answered you. Your turn, Beren.

Beren87 · 02-10-2003, 10:20 PM

Ah, no problem at all good sir.

Quote:

'Into the gateway!'

Dondagnirion · 02-11-2003, 10:31 AM

That would be Gandalf out loud to the nine walkers as the watcher in the water attacked them at the gate of Moria.

Beren87 · 02-11-2003, 03:32 PM

That's it! Your turn.

Dondagnirion · 02-12-2003, 11:01 AM

Thankee Beren87,

"No, he will not laugh."

Easy one again, but my friend is borrowing my books and its all I can quote off of the top of my head without a possibility of mis-qouting. Good Luck.

Eärendil · 02-13-2003, 07:21 AM

Um...Gandalf about Sauron?

Dondagnirion · 02-13-2003, 10:20 AM

Yep, your go.

It's Legolas to Gandalf in Fangorn, when he tells them they have to go to Edoras. ("The white rider")

[ February 28, 2003: Message edited by: Guinevere ]

Eärendil · 03-03-2003, 07:23 AM

You are correct about Legolas being the speaker. But as for who he says it to...um, I can´t remember! *laughs*
Anyway, we´ll say you are correct, so please proceed! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Guinevere · 03-03-2003, 02:01 PM

Thank you, Eärendil.

"How shall a man judge what to do in such times?"

Beren87 · 03-03-2003, 04:52 PM

Ah, good quote!

It was Eomer to Aragorn about the world changing and his indecision about what to do with the three walkers.

Guinevere · 03-04-2003, 04:53 AM

Correct, Beren. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Your turn!

Beren87 · 03-04-2003, 03:46 PM

Yay! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 03-04-2003, 03:51 PM

Just a hobbit trying to make his way in the world! Sam is correct!

I wait for some stroke of doom

There it is! Who said it to whom?

Guinevere · 03-05-2003, 03:31 AM

It was Eowyn who said this to Faramir, standing on the walls of Minas Tirith and looking eastwards.

Rochelle · 03-05-2003, 09:51 AM

Yep you've got it!

Guinevere · 03-06-2003, 02:41 AM

The grass is deep and springy

Guinevere · 03-09-2003, 03:53 AM

Hm, that one took me quite a lot of searching in the book, but finally I found it! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

It is Legolas who says this to Gimli, when they look for bootprints of the old man they have seen in the night.
" Maybe", said the elf "but a heavy boot might leave no print here: the grass is deep and springy"
