Of Gondorians and Rohirrim...
here is a simple trivia about the Gondorians and the Rohirrim, so when it is your chance too give a question, say only questions that relate too the Gondorians and/or Rohirrim (remember to give explanation)

Oops, sorry, I missed that. Ok - Snowmane because in the middle of the battle he fell and crushed Theoden under him.

My stab at it, Eomer.
He served Theoden, horse-master (horses being swift) Then served Gandalf (the white) after being exiled, thereby helping to stop the night raid of the Uruk-hai at Helm's Deep. The last line I guess to be about him still serving Rohan even after being exiled and of course still serving when he is unexiled (?). Okay, you can laugh now! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Is it Aragorn?
Specifically when he served in Minas Tirith under a different name? Server of the swift- I don't know this one Server of the White- Gandalf? Or the White Tower? Server of the high sun- Minas Anor, tower of the sun, I believe. Killer of the darkness raid- slayer of my dark kin left i did after i've done my duty, reclaimed i also did- He left the city after serving there, then returned as king I'm probably wrong, but that's my guess... |

No you don't, you can just answer what you think you can, then comment on what they have so far.

Still Aragorn-
Server of the swift- he served with the Rohirrim before going to Gondor. The "Dark Kin"- the men at Umbar that he drove away so he could take the ships.

Gil-Galad, I think that you are expecting rather too much in the way of answers to your questions. Yes, you are of course entitled to insist on the correct name being given (which I agree has not yet been given on the current question). And you are also entitled to expect some explanation of your clue when it is in riddle or cryptic form.
But, I think that once you get the right answer and some (even if not a complete) explanation of how it was arrived at, then it's time to move on to the next question. You do not need every part of the clue explained (you can always explain any parts of the clue that remain a mystery yourself when you confirm the answer). Otherwise the thread tends to drag and people might get put off. Also, please try to avoid making 2 or 3 posts in a row. It's often better simply edit your original post. Thanks.

Don't get your knickers in a twist. Estel, Thorongil, Dunadan, Strider, Aragorn, and Elessar. "A rose by any other name..." to quote another literary great... [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Cut that out, you two. The Forum Policies make it clear that there is to be no flaming, trolling or insulting. So please calm down or you will risk having your posting privileges revoked.
Now, Gil-Galad, it seems to me that miellien has given the correct answer and sufficient explanation of your clue. Would you not agree that he or she may now continue?

That's ok. SHE (that would be me) was playing for fun, but this is obviously a much more serious endeavor for some people. Please continue without me. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

They were struggling with the Fell Winter themselves, and many things perished in Gondor, including the White Tree.
