Quote Game - Part 10

[Varnafindë]

Correct! :)

[Valandil]

"But dost thou not now remember, Kementari, that thy thought
sang not always alone? Did not thy thought and mine meet also,
so that we took wing together /_i_e/_r_a_/b_r_s/_h_t/_o_r/ above
the clouds? That Ulmo shall come to be by the /_e_d/ of Iluvatar,
and before the children awake there shall go forth high /_i_g_/
like the kind who /E_g_e_/o_/t_e/_o_d_/o_/t_e/_e_t."

[Beren3000]

"like great birds that soar above the clouds" ?

[Varnafindë]

Together you've got the first three lines all correct :)

Ulmo in the 4th line is wrong
high in the 5th line is wrong
kind who in the 6th line are wrong

Not bad! ;)

[Valandil]

"But dost thou not now remember, Kementari, that thy thought
sang not always alone? Did not thy thought and mine meet also,
so that we took wing together like great birds that soar above
the clouds? That also shall come to be by the seed of Iluvatar,
and before the children awake there shall go forth with kings
like the /_i_d/ the Eagles of the woods of the West."

Doesn't exactly sound right altogether, but maybe I slipped a few more correct words in on you.

[Valandil]

Oops - more likely, '...with wings like the wind...'

[Varnafindë]

Quite a few more correct words, indeed! :)
And you're right about wings rather than kings :D

Still, 'seed' in line 4 is wrong, and 'woods' in line 6 is wrong.

So we're down to:
"But dost thou not now remember, Kementari, that thy thought
sang not always alone? Did not thy thought and mine meet also,
so that we took wing together like great birds that soar above
the clouds? That also shall come to be by the /_e_d/ of Iluvatar,
and before the children awake there shall go forth with wings
like the wind the Eagles of the /_o_d_/ of the West."

And then we need the speaker.

[Midge]

deed of Iluvatar?
(on that same note, foods? goods? moods? of the west... :D Just being silly, I know.)

Lords of the West?

[Varnafindë]

'deed' is not correct - but 'Lords of the West' is correct :)

[Midge]

bead, dead, head, lead, mead, read, geld, held, meld, veld, weld, bend, fend, lend, mend, pend, rend, send, tend, vend, wend, herd, nerd, feud, lewd, deed, feed, geed, heed, meed, need, peed, reed, seed, teed, weed,

I'll pick "need" for now. "... the need of Iluvatar."

[Varnafindë]

You picked the wrong one. But the correct one is there in your list also, ready to be picked ... ;)

[Midge]

... lead?

[Varnafindë]

Unfortunately not ...

I repeat the text for the new page.

"But dost thou not now remember, Kementari, that thy thought
sang not always alone? Did not thy thought and mine meet also,
so that we took wing together like great birds that soar above
the clouds? That also shall come to be by the /_e_d/ of Iluvatar,
and before the children awake there shall go forth with wings
like the wind the Eagles of the Lords of the West."

The speaker hasn't been found yet.

[Count Comfect]

seed?

[Varnafindë]

No, 'seed' and 'deed' and 'need' were guessed on the previous page, and none of them is the right word.

[Midge]

Unfortunately not ...

I repeat the text for the new page.

"But dost thou not now remember, Kementari, that thy thought
sang not always alone? Did not thy thought and mine meet also,
so that we took wing together like great birds that soar above
the clouds? That also shall come to be by the /_e_d/ of Iluvatar,
and before the children awake there shall go forth with wings
like the wind the Eagles of the Lords of the West."

The speaker hasn't been found yet.

bead, dead, head, mead, read, geld, held, meld, veld, weld, bend, fend, lend, mend, pend, rend, send, tend, vend, wend, herd, nerd, feud, lewd, feed, geed, heed, meed, peed, reed, teed, weed,

Is it head? I'm so confused. None of these sound like they fit there!

[Midge]

I think I might look this up, to keep it going. Princess Varna! Look and see if I'm right or wrong!

[Varnafindë]

Sorry I didn't see it the first time ...

'head' isn't right, but you're very close ... and the right word is there on your list.

[Midge]

I can't make any of them make sense... I'm slowly going away and away from sense.

heed?

[Varnafindë]

Glad to see that you've come back to your senses :D

'heed' it is! :)

Now we only need the speaker - might be easier than that pesky last word ...

[Midge]

No clue. If it's from Sil or UT, I'm probably never going to get it.

I'll guess, though. Is it ... morgoth? Or whatever his name was before it was morgoth... Mortar? :D

[Varnafindë]

If it's from Sil or UT, I'm probably never going to get it.
I'm afraid it is from one of those ...


I'll guess, though. Is it ... morgoth? Or whatever his name was before it was morgoth... Mortar? :D

Fair guess, but no. You mean Melkor ;) - but it wasn't him.

[Midge]

Yeah... that guy. I am not even sure I own UT. It sounds like some kind of elf talking to some other kind of elf. I don't remember very many old elves' names, except for the ones in LOTR, or like.. Feanor and Finrod, etc. Feanor's the only one I know what he did. It's like a history class. If I were taking a history class in ME, I'd totally fail it.

I feel silly making a guess because I literally have no definite idea. Uh... Galadriel?

[Earniel]

Manwë?

(If so, Midge can take the quote if she wants, since she did all the work for it.)

[Midge]

Psh. Everyone else did MOST of the work. I've been doing GUESSwork to finish the quote. :D

[Varnafindë]

It sounds like some kind of elf talking to some other kind of elf.

It might sound like "some kind of elf", but it's more like one level above that - it's one Vala talking to another Vala.

And Eärniel is right that it is Manwë (who is talking to Yavanna, also called Kementári, who possibly created the Ents).

Eärniel then has the right to bestow the honor and labor of doing the next quote game upon someone else :p

[Midge]

Some kind of being higher than an elf talking to some other kind of being higher than an elf. If I'd paid more attention in my Tolkien history book, I would have known that Yavanna was called Kementári.

If Earn wants me to do the quote, I would be honored. I simply wanted credit to be given where it was due (as in... to all the other people who figured out the meat of the quote).

[Earniel]

If you want to do the next quote, Midge, be my guest. :)

[Midge]

"F_u_t_e_/!/T_a_'s/_h_/f_r_t/_i_e/_'v_/h_a_d/_n_/f_o_/t_n/_e_v_/f_u_t_e_/./
Y_u/_e_n/_i_e/,/_r/_l_e/_o_/h_v_n'_/t_l_/m_/y_t/_l_/t_e/_a_e_/o_/y_u_/p_r_y/./"

[Varnafindë]

/That's/the/first/time/I've/heard/one/from/

[Midge]

Yes, yes.

[Midge]

*Bump* C'mon people! We can solve it, yes we can! Especially this one!

While we're at it, we can try to kick a very bad habit of the admins! KICK THE RULE!!!

[Aikanáro]

...'or else you haven't told me yet all the tales of your party' ? :confused:

[GrayMouser]

Fourteen! That's the first time I've heard one from ten leave fourteen. You mean nine, or else you haven't told me yet all the names (?) of your party.

The speaker is Beorn.

[Midge]

Yes! GM, your turn to give us all a quote!

[GrayMouser]

W_l_/,/_e_l/,/_f/_h_y/_r_/a_r_i_/o_/j_s_/f_v_/o_/u_/,/t_e_/w_/h_v_/m_t/ _o_s_ /e_e_i_s/o_/o_r/_r_v_l_.

[Valandil]

"Well, well, if they are /a_r_i_/o_/ just five of us,
then we have met /_o_s_ /e_e_i_s/ of our travels."

[Varnafindë]

/afraid/of/
/worse /enemies/

[Valandil]

Good solves Varnafinde (I think). If your's are correct, it's 'on our travels'

I can't place this quote at all though - so I'm not coming up with a speaker. It sounds like it might be hobbity, but I'm not sure...

[Midge]

It was when they went into Bree. All the people shrank back from them and they couldn't figure out why till they realized it was how they were dressed. I think that's it. I won't guess cuz you all worked on the quote and you can try it.

Edit: It might also have been when the men of Isengard didn't just attack them in Hobbiton or Bywater or wherever that was.

Note: It must have been in Bree because there were four hobbits, and the speaker mentioned "the FIVE of us". That includes Gandalf, who left the hobbits to go see Tom Bombadil and wasn't in Hobbiton.

[GrayMouser]

Yep, it's in Bree on the way home. The speaker is Gandalf, talking to Barliman.

[Midge]

Oh. My turn? I wasn't trying to guess, but if the answer has been given... *hmm*

[Midge]

Okay, fine. I figured someone would pipe up, but since they haven't, I'll move the thread along. Any objections and we'll just ignore my quote, good?

"Y_u_/p_r_o_/l_r_/!/I/_e_/y_u/_r_/a/_o_e-_a_t_r/,/_o_/m_r_l_/a/_a_t_i_/o_/w_r/./

The speaker has no name; simply giving his occupation will suffice.

[Valandil]

Thanks Midge. You sure have been good about keeping this thread moving. :)

"Your pardon lord! I see you are a lore-master,
not merely a captain of war.
But alas! sir, we do not keep this thing in the Houses of Healing,
where only the /_r_v_l_/h_r_/ of sick are needed.
For it has no /_i_t_e/ that we know of,
save perhaps to /s_e_t_n/ a /f_u_e_/ air,
or to drive away some passing /_e_v_n_s_/.
Unless, of course, you /_i_e/_e_d/_o/_h_m_s/ of all days which /_o_e_/

[Count Comfect]

It has no "virtue."
Or drive away some passing "heaviness."

[Earniel]

"Your pardon lord! I see you are a lore-master, not merely a captain of war. But alas! sir, we do not keep this thing in the Houses of Healing, where only the /_r_v_l_/h_r_/ of sick are needed. For it has no virtue that we know of, save perhaps to sweeten a fouled air, or to drive away some passing heaviness. Unless, of course, you /_i_e/_e_d/to/_h_m_s/ of old days which some such as our good Ioreth still repeat without understanding."

The Warden of the Houses of Healing?

[Valandil]

"give heed to rhymes"

Seems like it wasn't actually the Warden (though I'm not sure). Was it some other lore master or herb-lore master?

[Midge]

Thanks Midge. You sure have been good about keeping this thread moving. :)


I sure like playing this game! It makes me sad that the Narnia Quote game is slightly abandoned. *tear*

"Your pardon lord! I see you are a lore-master, not merely a captain of war. But alas! sir, we do not keep this thing in the Houses of Healing, where only the /_r_v_l_/h_r_/o_/ sick are/_e_d_d/. For it has no virtue that we know of, save perhaps to sweeten a fouled air, or to drive away some passing heaviness. Unless, of course, you give heed to rhymes of old days which some such as our good Ioreth still repeat without understanding."


This is the so-far correctly guessed quote, with incorrect guesses bolded. I'll have to check when I get home this evening to make sure, as I don't have my book with me right now, but I THINK that is right. Disclaimer: It may not be, so don't sue me if it isn't.



Seems like it wasn't actually the Warden (though I'm not sure). Was it some other lore master or herb-lore master?

Yes, it were the herb-master!

[Count Comfect]

"hurt or" sick are "tended."

[Valandil]

"gravely"?

[Midge]

Yes, all adds are correct! If you want to go ahead and post, I am pretty sure it is right. If you don't post by this evening, I'll check to make sure and let you know if it's right or wrong. If it's right, then you HAVE to post! :D

[Valandil]

[Midge]

"Don't be "..." and don't worry!"

[Valandil]

Yes - those are correct. :)

[Count Comfect]

You will have to manage without...

[Varnafindë]

/and/a/good/many/other/things/,
/before/you/get/to/the/journey's/end/./

[Valandil]

All solve attempts still correct. Keep 'em coming! :)

[Valandil]

I don't know if this is giving you guys trouble, or if it's just too easy, and you don't want to solve immediately and take the next turn. ;)

But... I like to see it all come together (and remove those pesky slash marks '/'), so here's a post of what the partly-solved quote looks like now:

"Don't be /p_e_i_e/, and don't worry!
You will have to manage without /_o_k_t-_a_d_e_c_i_f_/,
and a good many other things,
before you get to the journey's end. /_s/_o_/a/_a_/,
/I/_a_e/_o_/a/_p_r_/h_o_/a_d/_l_a_/i_/m_/l_g_a_e."

Does this help? :)

[Midge]

pocket-handkerchiefs

i have got a spare hood and cloak in my luggage.

[Valandil]

Yes, you're very good! :) Just a few more words and a speaker...

[Midge]

Well.. .the other words I can't think of. "as for a"?

My speaker guess is Gloin.

[Valandil]

The words are right, but the speaker is not Gloin.

One word and the speaker remain. :)

[Varnafindë]

Some of the trouble was to keep track of what has been solved and what hasn't - wouldn't there be two words left? Or has /p_e_i_e/ also been solved?
I think that /_a_/, is /hat/,
And I think that Gandalf is the speaker.

[Midge]

I have no idea as to that first word. Is it Dwalin?

[Valandil]

Varnafinde - you're right... the 'p' word was not yet solved either. Sorry about that. You're also right that the other word is 'hat'.

Speaker - Gandalf was wrong, but Midge is correct that the Dwarf speaker was Dwalin.

So NOW... just one word. '/p_e_i_e/'

It's harder when they're mostly vowels. But let's see how you do. :)

[Midge]

I keep thinking pensive. But that doesn't fit. pierite? Haha. That word! RAR!

[Midge]

*sigh* Okay. I know the answer but I don't want to give it because I like solving quotes too!

It's "precise".

[Valandil]

Precisely! Your turn! :D

[Varnafindë]

We'll try to solve yours fast so that you can join us on the solving side again, Midge ;)

[Midge]

*whew* thanks! My least favorite quotes are the ones that take a REALLY long time. :D

"A_d/_o_/t_a_/t_e/_r_a_/o_e_/h_v_/g_n_/t_/d_s_u_s/_i_h/_a_t_r_/,/

That SHOULD be correct.

[Valandil]

"And for that the /_r_a_/o_e_/ have gone to discuss with /_a_t_r_/,
/t_e/_u_t_r_/c_n/_e_h_p_/l_a_n/_h_/a_s_e_s/_o/_h_i_/o_n/_m_l_/ riddles.

He tracked you as far as the /_o_e_t/, but there are still many things

[Varnafindë]

the /answers/ to their own small riddles.

[Valandil]

'perhaps learn' - just before yours

[Valandil]

Oh - and 'great ones' in the first line! :)

[Valandil]

"And for that the great ones have gone to discuss with /_a_t_r_/,
the hunters can perhaps learn the answers to their own small riddles.
We tracked you as far as the forest, but there are still many things
that I should like to know the truth of."

S: Aragorn?

[Midge]

"And/_o_/that the great ones have gone to discuss/_i_h/_a_t_r_/,

We tracked you as far as the forest, but there are still many things

Speaker is NOT Aragorn.

[Earniel]

"And now that the great ones have gone to discuss high matters,..."

Gimli in Isengard, I'd wager.

[Midge]

adds are correct, speaker is not.

[Valandil]

Well, by shear process of elimination, I'll have to guess Legolas. :)

[Midge]

Haha. By sheer process of elimination you guessed right. I figured once we got rid of the first two as candidates, it wouldn't be too hard! Your turn, Val.

[Valandil]

Third line: 'all fool' is wrong

Fourth line: 'Seas' / 'sea' / 'guile' are wrong

Other new solves are right.

[Varnafindë]

most like ... fly from

the Star with no star to guide you

seeking a land of exile

[Valandil]

Those are all correct.

[Varnafindë]

To meddle not in the war and to watch.
Until I return I can say no more.
But it is most like that you shall fly from the land of
the Star with no star to guide you; for that land is/_e_i_e_/.
Then you shall lose all that you have loved,

/_u_/e_s_/o_/w_s_/t_e/_a_a_/a_o_e/_a_/s_y."

[Valandil]

'fire' is not correct - the other added words are right. :)

[Varnafindë]

To meddle not in the war and to watch.
Until I return I can say no more.
But it is most like that you shall fly from the land of
the Star with no star to guide you; for that land is/_e_i_e_/.

/_u_/e_s_/o_/w_s_/t_e/_a_a_/a_o_e/_a_/s_y."

death in life?

[Valandil]

Yes - 'life' is correct there.

[Count Comfect]

land is "defiled"?

[Valandil]

yes - 'defiled' is correct

[Varnafindë]

/But/east/or/west/the/Valar/alone/can/say."

Amandil as the speaker?

[Valandil]

All are correct, Varnafinde.

Does that leave us just one word?

[Midge]

desired? retired? defiled? ... Haha.

So I'm guessing "defiled", but the way I came across that word was by trying to think of a word that would be a synonym with "unfiled".

[Valandil]

CC already got 'defiled' a few posts up.

The first word in the next-to-last line is still unsolved. I think that's all that's left.

[Midge]

Oh, geez. Don't you hate it when you miss the last page of a thread?

"To meddle not in the war and to watch.

But it is most like that you shall fly from the land of
the Star with no star to guide you; for that land is defiled.

/_o_e_a_t_n_/death in life, seeking a land of exile elsewhere.
But east or west the Valar alone can say."

forewaiting?

[Valandil]

'forewaiting' is not right - but it could almost pass.

The correct word sounds like it has to do with one of the senses.

[Varnafindë]

forecasting?
Don't know whether that sounds like you're describing it, but it's the only thing I can come up with so far ...

[Valandil]

not 'forecasting', but that's close. By letters. :)

[Midge]

foretasting!

[Varnafindë]

That would finally make sense, Midge :)

[Valandil]

'foretasting' it is! Your turn, Midge. :)

[Midge]

Oh - I didn't even look closely at the letters there and spelled 'bain' instead of 'bane'! :p:o Maybe I tried to spell it like 'Dain' :confused:;)

Midge - did you leave out a letter at the start of the last line? Should those other words be:

'dwell again in Moria'?

[Midge]

No. I didn't leave out a letter. I think we've got all the words except that one. Uno momento...

Nope, I was wrong. There are a couple more words at the end. Dain is the speaker. The words remaining are exactly as they should be. Just think outside the box (or maybe in this case, the mine)!

[Count Comfect]

walk again on?

[Midge]

yes to "walk", no to "on".

It seems like it's been a while since I've seen you, CC! ... Good to see you!

[Varnafindë]

in

("The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 4 characters.")

Which I then have done :p

[Midge]

Okay. So we did get all the words.. I never filled in the last one, which Val got WAAAYYY up there. In is the last word, so it's your turn, Princess.

Isn't it funny that you can't post a two-letter message?

[Valandil]

Actually - I had the 'in' the same time I had 'Moria' - so I think Count Comfect got it with the last word being 'walk' - right?

[Varnafindë]

You're quite right, Val - Count Comfect it is.

[Count Comfect]

Oh bah. Now I have to post a quote? I guess that's the danger of answering, huh?

"B_c_u_e/_o_/w_r_/a_l_e_/./I/_a_e/_e_n/_/g_o_/d_a_/o_/y_u/.
/_/h_v_/s_t/_y/_o_r/_i_e/w_t_/s_m/_a_h/_a_/.

/_n_/I/_a_/s_m_t_i_g/_l_e/_o/_o/./"

[Varnafindë]

Oh bah. Now I have to post a quote? I guess that's the danger of answering, huh?

It is indeed! :D

"Because/you/were/asleep/./

[Count Comfect]

So far, so good.

[Valandil]

We'll try to get you out of your misery as quickly as possible, CC! :p


"Because you were asleep. I have seen a good deal of you.
I have sat by your side with /s_m/_a_h/_a_/.
But as for the /_e_s_/, I don't go in for such things much now.
And I had something else to do."

[Count Comfect]

Haha, thanks :).

And still so far so good.

[Valandil]

'Sam each day' ? (I wondered before about 'Sam', but you hadn't capitalized the 's' ) :p

Speaker: Bilbo?

I can't come up with the /_e_s_/...

[Count Comfect]

No mistakes yet. And oops, should've capitalized the S. Was too focused on making sure the letter itself was right...

[Valandil]

Oh wait... 'feast'?

[Midge]

Yeah... we need to fill in the little words as soon as possible. They're easy to miss. Sry for the mistake.

[Count Comfect]

And Val has the solve! Correct!

[Valandil]

OK - a bit slow, but here I go:

"I/_o_d_r/_f/_h_s/_s/_/c_n_r_v_n_e/_f/_h_/E_e_y/.
/_h_y/_a_/i_/m_/l_n_/t_a_/h_/c_n/_o_e_n/_h_/s_o_m_/i_/t_e/
_o_n_a_n_/o_/S_a_o_/t_a_/s_a_d/_p_n/_h_/b_r_e_s/_f/_o_d_r/.
/_e/_a_/s_r_n_e/_o_e_s/_n_/m_n_/a_l_e_."

[Count Comfect]

I wonder if this is a contrivance of the Enemy. They...

[Midge]

Goodness, that's a hard one!

"I wonder if this is a contrivance of the Enemy.
/They/_a_/i_/m_/l_n_/t_a_/h_/c_n/_o_e_n/_h_/s_o_m_/i_/t_e/
_o_n_a_n_/of Sauron that staid open the borders of Mordor.
/_e/_a_/s_r_n_e/_o_e_s/_n_/m_n_/a_l_e_."

[Valandil]

Midge - good tries. In the third line; 'Sauron', 'staid' and 'open' are incorrect. The rest is correct.

I've always wondered about 'The Borders of Mordor' - like what selection of books they have there. And if it's nearly as good a place to shop as 'The Gap of Rohan' :p

[Midge]

"I wonder if this is a contrivance of the Enemy.
/They say in my land that he can/_o_e_n/the storms in the
Mountains of Shadow that stand upon the borders of Mordor.
/_e/_a_/s_r_n_e/_o_e_s/_n_/m_n_/a_l_e_."

Oh. Sauron doesn't even fit. Sharon does, though.

Edit: Just read your jokes! Those are funny! Haha.

[Valandil]

Hey Midge - your additions are correct.

Thanks for the compliment. :) Hmmm... in line with where you are these days - I wonder if Aragorn and Arwen were registered at those two spots? :p

[Varnafindë]

govern the storms

/He/can/s_r_n_e/_o_e_s/and/mind/a_l_e_."

[Midge]

"I wonder if this is a contrivance of the Enemy.
They say in my land that he can govern the storms in the
Mountains of Shadow that stand upon the borders of Mordor.
He has strange lovers and many asleep."

Is the speaker Legolas?

[Valandil]

Speaker is not Legolas - nor are 'lovers' or 'asleep' correct. The other words are all good.

However - I think that attempt '...he has strange lovers...' belongs in the All-Time Quoters Hall of Fame! :D

[Count Comfect]

many "allies"

[Valandil]

'allies' is correct. :)

[Varnafindë]

Is the speaker Gimli?

And is there only one word left now?

[Valandil]

Not Gimli - and yes, I believe there is only one word left. :)

[Count Comfect]

strange "powers"?

[Valandil]

'powers' is correct - we need only the speaker. :)

[Midge]

Speaker is not Legolas - nor are 'lovers' or 'asleep' correct. The other words are all good.

However - I think that attempt '...he has strange lovers...' belongs in the All-Time Quoters Hall of Fame! :D

Well, you know me. When I can't think of the real word, sometimes you just need inspiration! Speaker: There's a prince from a southern kingdom, Named something like Amroth, or Imril or something that always has sounded elvish to me. Is it him? I'll look up his name (but not the quote) asap.

[Varnafindë]

Do you mean Imrahil? I believe he is Prince of Dol Amroth, and it is said that there is Elvish blood in his line.

If it is correct, you are entitled to the next quote, though - I wouldn't have thought of him if you hadn't pointed him out.

[Valandil]

Neither Imrahil nor Amroth. :)

[Varnafindë]

Could it be Boromir?
It would make sense for him to talk of 'in my land' when they are away from it.

[Valandil]

Yes - it was Boromir, as they were dealing with Caradhras!

Your turn, Varanfinde. :)

[Midge]

Imrahil. I tried to post it yesterday when I remembered it, but apparently entmoot+the LG NV2 does not mix well.

[Valandil]

Close relative anyway - I think Imrahil was Boromir's uncle. :)

[Varnafindë]

I'm not sure whether he was that close - but at least he terms himself "one who is a kinsman of the Lord Denethor".

Here's a new one:

'T_i_/d_o_/s_a_l/_t_n_/f_r/_/y_a_/a_d/_/d_y/,/_n_/t_e_/c_a_e/,/
_n_e_s/_o_/s_a_l/_e_o_e/_h_t/_e_m/_o_e/_o/_i_a_/T_r_t_/a_d/_r_s_n_/

[Midge]

This doom shall stink* for a year and a day, and then cease,
unless you shall become what term hope to final ... and present
yourself to the good and Seenard of the City. Then I will ingreat
him of ... what I made none and to make it lifelong.

*I know it's "stand" but stink is what I typed in first and I thought it was interesting there, so I left it.

[Valandil]

"This doom shall stand for a year and a day, and then cease,
unless you shall before that term come to Minas Tirith and present
yourself to the Lord and Steward of the City. Then I will entreat
him to confirm what I have done and make it lifelong."

Faramir, I believe.

And yes - I think Imrahil was uncle of Faramir and Boromir. His sister was their mother. :)

[Varnafindë]

I'll accept 'stand' rather than 'stink' as your final guess there, Midge (thank you for sharing it, though :D ) and 'stand' is correct :)

Valandil has corrected your wrong guesses and added some new guesses, and the whole quote is now correct.

Yes, Faramir is the speaker - if Imrahil is Finuilas' brother, then indeed he is Faramir's uncle, and Imrahil's daughter Lothiriel, the future Queen of Rohan, is Faramir's cousin.

It's all in the family. ;)

Valandil is next. :cool:

[Valandil]

Oops - forgot I was up!

Yes - all adds correct!

Keep it coming - and we need the speaker too. :)

[Varnafindë]

/foolery/! :confused:

[Valandil]

'foolery' is correct! Nice job, that was probably the toughest word in the quote. :)

"Not at my expense!

I fail to see what any hobbit, good or bad,

[Valandil]

No - not Bill Ferny. :)

[Varnafindë]

/advice/ ?

[Valandil]

'advice' is correct, and the quote portion is all solved. We only need the speaker.

Need any hints?

[Midge]

Farmer Cotton?

[Valandil]

Nope - not Farmer Cotton.

[The Dread Pirate Roberts]

Thorin Oakenshield

[Valandil]

Yes! Thorin it was (another UT quote! ;) ).

Your turn, DPR. :)

from you and from me a new /s_a_/ shall arise. Farewell!"

Said, I think, by Huor.

[Midge]

white walls,

a new star

[The Dread Pirate Roberts]

Done. Great job. Midge is up.

[Valandil]

Hey Midge - don't forget us! :)

[Midge]

I know. I just haven't had time at home to pick up my books and post one and I don't have them here with me. I'll put the quote up for grabs. I'll post next time I get one.

[Midge]

So... nobody has taken up the mantle of posting a new quote???

*request* Can we please get rid of the rule... at least for like, members or something???

Edit: wait... *sigh* Excuse me while I go think of something intelligent to say.
(Yes, I could have deleted it once I realized it was idiotic, but I figured, hey. Why not share my stupidity with those who would appreciate it?)

[Varnafindë]

Why not share my stupidity with those who would appreciate it?)

Why not indeed? We appreciate you :D

*sits back and waits for Midge's quote* :cool:

[Midge]

[Count Comfect]

serene and magnificent, punishment enough?

[Valandil]

"He was, and also Saruman's spy and servant in Rohan.
Fate has not been kinder to him than he deserves.
The sight of the ruin of all that he thought so serene and
magnificent must have been almost punishement enough.
But I fear that /w_r_e/_w_i_s/_i_."

Sounds like Gandalf.

[Midge]

"He was, and also Saruman's spy and servant in Rohan.
Fate has not been kinder to him than he deserves.
The sight of the ruin of all that he thought so/s_r_n_/and
magnificent must have been almost punishment enough.
But I fear that /w_r_e/_w_i_s/_i_."

All is right, except for serene, which I've replaced. Speaker is not Gandalf.

[Earniel]

Are some of the missing words 'strong', 'worse' and 'him'?

[Varnafindë]

And if so, the last word, 'awaits'?

What about Aragorn as the speaker?

[Midge]

Yes and yes! Princess, it's your turn!

[Varnafindë]

A hint - perhaps not very helpful: The speaker is NOT the current or former or next President of the Entmoot, although said president may perhaps wish to have such an authority!

[Valandil]

S: The Elf King of Mirkwood (aka - Thanduil, father of Legolas)

[Varnafindë]

'are' in the last line is wrong - even with the wrong number of characters :p
/_a_e/

Otherwise everything is correct, including the speaker.
I thought him appropriate in these days of the Entmoot Election ;)

[Valandil]

Oops - careless, careless!

[Midge]

Did you not three times pursue and ... my people in the forest and rouse the spiders with your .. and clamour?

[Count Comfect]

This is Thranduil.

[Varnafindë]

Val's correction is ... correct ;)
Midge - 'food' is wrong, everything else is correct.
We now have the speaker and most of the quote:

"It is a crime to wander in my realm without leave. Do you forget
that you were in my kingdom, using the /_o_d/ that my people made?
Did you not three times pursue and /_r_u_l_/ my people in the forest
and rouse the spiders with your /_i_t/ and clamour? After all the
disturbance you have made I have a right to know what brings you here,
and if you will not tell me now, I will keep you all in prison until
you have learned sense and manners!"

[Count Comfect]

riot and clamour, road that my people made.

[Varnafindë]

Both correct!

Just one word now.

[Midge]

"It is a crime to wander in my realm without leave. Do you forget
that you were in my kingdom, using the road that my people made?
Did you not three times pursue and /_r_u_l_/ my people in the forest
and rouse the spiders with your riot and clamour? After all the
disturbance you have made I have a right to know what brings you here,
and if you will not tell me now, I will keep you all in prison until
you have learned sense and manners!"

Just reposting. That last word has me really hanged up on it.

[Valandil]

I just read this yesterday with my younger sons - so it wouldn't be fair for me to solve. :p

[Midge]

I am stumped. Is that word particularly hard???

[Varnafindë]

I can't really say whether it's particularly hard.

All I can say, is - I haven't got my book with me, and I can't remember the word - and I cannot work it out either :p

So we'll all have to wait until tomorrow when I can look it up :D

[Midge]

I vote Val gives it. I'm sure I'm going to feel silly for not thinking of it, but that's okay.

[Valandil]

Sorry to put you through any trouble - but that's what it is... 'trouble'! :p

[Varnafindë]

Sure, you've given us 'trouble', Val - is it your reward or your punishment that you now are to do the next quote? :D

[Valandil]

Probably punishment - since technically, I did solve it by looking it up (though 'looking it up' was not my purpose) :)

Might be a day or two - but I'll try to keep it to that.

[Midge]

I was right! I love it when I'm right, but unfortunately, what I was right about was that I couldn't think of it. I was correct in my guesses that it was "ou" and "le", but I kept getting stuck on a "s" or "t" where the "b" was supposed to be.

So I was right: I feel extremely silly about not getting it.

*awaits Val's quote*

[Midge]

By the way, Val, it's your quote, if I remember correctly.

[Varnafindë]

You do - he said it might be a day or two ...

[Midge]

*checks dates*

[Valandil]

Oh goodness - I have gotten a bit behindhand. Very distracted with RL activities of late.

I'll see what I can do, but if either of you (or anyone else) gets tired of waiting on me and wants to post, by all means go ahead. Meanwhile - thanks for the reminder.

[Midge]

RL is rather bothersome when it gets in the way of Entmoot, huh? :D

I'll wait. Practice my patience for my presidency... :)

Correction and completion of one of the sentences:

[Count Comfect]

In which case you also were meant to have it. And that may be an _n_o_r_g_n_ thought.

[Varnafindë]

[Midge]

that by spying

[The Dread Pirate Roberts]

So is this where we're currently at? Corrections and/or confirmations?

"Behind that there was something else at work,
beyond any design of the ring-maker.
I had put it to /_l_i_e_/that by spying Bilbo was meant to find the Ring,
and not by its maker. I which case you also were meant to have it.
and that may be an encouraging thought."

[Varnafindë]

I don't think we've given the speaker - but it's Gandalf.

[Valandil]

The speaker is Gandalf.

Most solved words are correct - two wrong ones, both in the third line; "had" and "spying".

In the fourth line (DPR), I think you mean, "In which..." - not "I which..." - as has already been solved above. "In" is correct, of course.

I guess that leaves just three words? Nice work everyone! :)

[Varnafindë]

'saying' rather than 'spying'?

[Valandil]

Yes - 'saying' is right - and OOPS - 'to' and 'that' are also wrong in that same line - and I left out another 'that' in the line in my first posting. :o Sorry about all that - I guess I was rushing when I posted and when I checked.

So here's where the quote stands now:

"Behind that there was something else at work,
beyond any design of the ring-maker.
I /_a_/ put it /_o/_l_i_e_/t_a_/ by saying that Bilbo
was meant to find the Ring, and not by its maker.
I which case you also were meant to have it.
and that may be an encouraging thought."

[Varnafindë]

Only one word is wrong: 'are' in the first sentence.

[Midge]

age. indeed. yet.

[Varnafindë]

That's the first sentence finished correctly! :cool:

Only three words and the speaker are missing.

[Midge]

All I'm getting from this is "doom", "great" and something like "winona", as in Ryder?

[Varnafindë]

"doom" and "great" are correct. :cool:
"winona" is nothing like it ...

[Midge]

"In this age the Children of Ilúvatar shall come indeed, but they come not yet.
Moreover it is doom that the Firstborn shall come in the darkness,
and shall look first upon the stars. Great light shall be for their /w_n_n_/.
To Varda ever shall they call at need."

waning?

[Varnafindë]

'waning' is correct! :)
Only the speaker now ...

[Midge]

I sincerely haven't the foggiest idea of who might have said it, but I'll go ahead and start the bidding with...

Manwë?

[Varnafindë]

Not Manwë ...

[Butterbeer]

Barliman Butterbeer???

(Wisest Sage , of the Prancing Pony?)

[Midge]

His name was ButterBUR, not Butterbeer.

[Varnafindë]

And he didn't say those words.

It was a guess further away from the real speaker, too ...

[The Dread Pirate Roberts]

Looks like something Mandos would say, to me.

[Varnafindë]

And it was indeed something that Mandos did say.

Your turn, DPR!

[The Dread Pirate Roberts]

I should have something up by late afternoon EST.
