The White tree in Minas Tirith died when this Steward died. What is his name?

Firefoot · 05-05-2005, 05:33 PM

Belecthor II.

mormegil · 05-05-2005, 05:38 PM

Bravo on the quick answer! (correct of course.)

Firefoot · 05-06-2005, 03:39 PM

When was the land of the Beornings aflame?

mormegil · 05-06-2005, 04:08 PM

Do you want a year? If so, that's in 3018. If you want more specifics it is when Frodo sat upon the Seat of Seeing upon Amon Hen with the ring on while trying to escape Boromir.

Firefoot · 05-08-2005, 01:04 PM

I was looking for the specific. Correct of course, and your turn.

mormegil · 05-08-2005, 02:16 PM

Manwë loved the Vanyar best and of him they received something that is said to be his delight. What is Manwë's delight?

Holbytlass · 05-08-2005, 03:33 PM

poetry

mormegil · 05-08-2005, 09:19 PM

Very good and spot on!

Holbytlass · 05-11-2005, 09:13 PM

Who is Galmod's child?

mormegil · 05-11-2005, 09:27 PM

That would be our beloved Grima Womrtongue

Holbytlass · 05-12-2005, 07:05 AM

Yep, that's correct. Made his daddy proud, didn't he?!

mormegil · 05-12-2005, 12:21 PM

Who is this verse in reference to and who is being quoted?

Quote:

An Elven-maid there was of old,
A shining star by day:
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold
Her shoes of silver-gray.

Firefoot · 05-12-2005, 02:13 PM

Nimrodel, sung by Legolas.

mormegil · 05-12-2005, 04:23 PM

That is correct my good Firefoot

Firefoot · 05-13-2005, 05:43 PM

Thank'ee.

List three people who called the Ring "precious."

mormegil · 05-13-2005, 09:46 PM

Gollum, smeagol

Bilbo, Sam

Firefoot · 05-14-2005, 06:25 AM

Not quite. When Sam uses "precious" it is in reference to Gollum's term. I meant three people who use the term precious with respect to themself. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

So Bilbo and Gollum are correct, but still looking for the third.

mormegil · 05-14-2005, 08:50 AM

Isildur

Firefoot · 05-14-2005, 10:14 AM

That's the one. I knew you'd figure it out!

mormegil · 05-15-2005, 12:04 AM

How many years after the forth battle was is before Morgoth attacked again?

Holbytlass · 05-19-2005, 08:58 PM

400 years

mormegil · 05-19-2005, 11:06 PM

Nope--lower

Firefoot · 05-24-2005, 04:33 PM

7 years?

mormegil · 05-24-2005, 04:40 PM

You are correct

Firefoot · 05-25-2005, 02:17 PM

Who tells Frodo not to travel by night?

NightKnight · 05-27-2005, 10:02 AM

Gandalf?

Firefoot · 05-27-2005, 02:07 PM

Yep.

NightKnight · 05-28-2005, 03:14 AM

What physical harm did Gollum do to Aragorn?

Firefoot · 05-28-2005, 06:46 AM

He bit him.

NightKnight · 05-29-2005, 03:30 PM

Yep. Your turn.

Firefoot · 05-29-2005, 07:49 PM

What First Age event is remembered only in tale and not in song?

mormegil · 05-29-2005, 08:42 PM

I believe that it is the battle of Fingolfin vs. Morgoth. More specifically Fingolfin's death.

Firefoot · 05-29-2005, 08:57 PM

You believe correctly.

mormegil · 05-30-2005, 08:02 AM

Amon Rudh was situated between which two vales?

cookieman · 06-07-2005, 01:08 AM

Doriath and Nargothrond?

mormegil · 06-07-2005, 07:36 AM

Nope. Good guess.

cookieman · 06-07-2005, 03:58 PM

Sirion and Narog

mormegil · 06-07-2005, 04:32 PM

There you have it....your turn.

cookieman · 06-07-2005, 04:40 PM

What is the badge of Finarfin?
