Appendices Quotes - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Fingolfin II · 07-17-2004, 11:52 PM

I did a search and couldn't find any threads like this, so here goes-

Basically, what happens here is that the person gives a quote said by someone in the LotR Appendices and you have to guess who said that and on what occasion.

Here's the first one-

Quote:

This cannot be borne!

Evisse the Blue · 07-18-2004, 05:11 AM

Said by Thrain when Nar told him of his meeting with Azog.

Fingolfin II · 07-19-2004, 12:40 AM

Yep.

Evisse the Blue · 07-19-2004, 03:29 AM

"Take counsel with yourself..."

InklingElf · 07-31-2004, 02:23 PM

Here's the rest of it said by Aragorn:

Quote:

"'Lady Undómiel,' said Aragorn, 'the hour is indeed hard, yet it was made even in that day we met under the white birches in the garden of Elrond where none now walk. And on the hill of Cerin Amroth when we forsook both the Shadow and the Twilight this doom we accepted. Take counsel with yourself, beloved, and ask if you would indeed have me wait until I whither and fall from my high seat unmanned and witless. Nay, lady, I am the last of the Númenoreans and the latest King of the Elder Days; and to me has been given not only a span thrice that of Men of Middle-Earth, but also the grace to go at my will, and give back the gift. Now, therefore, I will sleep.

Evisse the Blue · 08-01-2004, 03:15 AM

Well done! Go on.

InklingElf · 08-03-2004, 02:52 PM

Thanks! Sorry I took forever here's a quote:

"Azog! Azog!"

InklingElf · 08-09-2004, 03:15 PM

I'd really love to go on with the game so I'll give a clue as to who it is said to:

they are creatures of the dark

Firefoot · 08-09-2004, 03:23 PM

It was the warriors of Náin as they hewed through the Orcs to the threshold of Moria.

InklingElf · 08-09-2004, 03:40 PM

right on Firefoot! Your turn.

Firefoot · 08-09-2004, 04:31 PM

Thanks.

Quote:

I will await you.

Rinfanawen · 08-09-2004, 05:32 PM

"Take this ring, Master," he [Círdan] said, "for your labours will be heavy; but it will support you in the weariness that you have taken upon yourself. For this is the Ring of Fire, and with it you may rekindle hearts in a world that grows chill. But as for me, my heart is with the Sea, and I will dwell by the grey shores until the last ship sails. I will await you."

'Twas Círdan who said it, and a fine quote it is. I had forgotten about that one. Well researched, Firefoot.

Firefoot · 08-09-2004, 06:43 PM

Thanks. That's correct (as if you couldn't tell

).

Rinfanawen · 08-11-2004, 12:38 PM

Okay, here's the next quote:

Quote:

"He will not return to this land."

There you go!

InklingElf · 08-11-2004, 10:36 PM

It was Glorfindel:

Quote:

“Do not pursue him! He will not return to this land. Far off yet is his doom, and not by the of hand man will he fall.”

Rinfanawen · 08-12-2004, 03:56 PM

Right you are, InklingElf. Your go!

InklingElf · 08-13-2004, 03:41 PM

Alright here's another one:

"But I am tired of poverty and the scorn of Men."

Guinevere · 08-19-2004, 07:33 AM

Thror to Thrain before setting out to Moria

InklingElf · 08-24-2004, 02:44 PM

Correct! Your turn.

Guinevere · 08-25-2004, 02:18 AM

Thank you

Quote:

Be off! We need no hearers.

Encaitare · 08-26-2004, 12:46 PM

Helm Hammerhand to Freca's men, shortly before killing Breca with a blow from his fist.

Guinevere · 08-26-2004, 01:47 PM

Please proceed.

Encaitare · 08-26-2004, 02:23 PM

Here's the next one:

Quote:

Such is my fate.

rutslegolas · 08-27-2004, 08:09 AM

Arwen To Elessar at Elessar's death when she decides to reamin behind in Middle-Earth.

This is my 200 hundreth post ,so i hope its correct

Guinevere · 08-27-2004, 11:46 AM

Sorry to disappoint you, Rutslegolas,

but it was young Aragorn who said this to Elrond in Imladris, about his (seemingly hopeless) love for Arwen.

Encaitare · 08-28-2004, 12:03 PM

Indeed you are right, Guinevere! Go ahead!

Guinevere · 08-30-2004, 12:32 PM

Thanks!

Quote:

...I guess that we share one trouble at least.

paavo · 08-30-2004, 01:19 PM

is it Gandalf to Thorin or Thorin to gandalf at the prancing pony?

Guinevere · 08-30-2004, 02:06 PM

Gandalf to Thorin is correct! Your turn.

paavo · 08-31-2004, 08:24 AM

"for if I will not go now, then I must soon go perforce."

Encaitare · 08-31-2004, 03:50 PM

Aragorn to Arwen, talking about his decision to die.

paavo · 09-01-2004, 07:56 AM

correct. your turn.

Encaitare · 09-01-2004, 01:14 PM

Next one: "But surely my own kin will not desert me?"

Fingolfin II · 09-02-2004, 02:46 AM

Thrain to Dain after the Battle of Azanulbizar?

Encaitare · 09-02-2004, 06:25 PM

Yup.

rutslegolas · 09-04-2004, 11:32 PM

Fingolfin are you there??

Fingolfin II · 09-05-2004, 12:39 AM

Ah, sorry, yep here I am.

Quote:

If you will cleave to me...

Firefoot · 09-05-2004, 05:38 AM

Aragorn to Arwen.

Fingolfin II · 09-06-2004, 01:47 AM

Correct as usual.

Firefoot · 09-06-2004, 09:03 AM

"But you have said much already"
