Hey - look Midge! Someone besides you and me has posted the last two in a row now!!!
"They are hearing /_l_e_d_/. I had kept vigil by my /_r_t_e_/ for two nights, and last night I slept. I woke /_e_o_e/_o_n_n_/c_m_/, and I was in /_a_n/, and found my /_e_s/_l_s_e_e_/. Then I /_u_s_e_/ what had happened. Alas! If some /_o_e_/ passes from you to a thing that you have made, then you must have a share in its hurts."

 This is what you have correct so far: "They are h_a_i_g /_l_e_d_/. I had kept vigil by my brother for two nights, and last night I slept.

"They are healing /_l_e_d_/. I had kept vigil by my brother for two nights,
and last night I slept. I woke before morning came, and I was in /_a_n/, and found my /_e_s/_l_s_e_e_/. Then I /_u_s_e_/ what had happened. Alas! If some /_o_e_/ passes from you to a thing that you have made, then you must have a share in its hurts." Edited to try: "healing" I can't place this one yet. Maybe the words still missing will help.

And maybe that's 'already' in the first line?
"...and I was in 'pain'?"

:O I'm in shock!
This will include the unconfirmed guesses given by Val and BB. "They are healing already. I had kept vigil by my brother for two nights, and last night I slept. I woke before morning come, and I was in pain, and found my /_e_s/_l_s_e_e_/. Then I guessed what had happened. Alas! If some /_o_e_/ passes from you to a thing that you have made, then you must have a share in its hurts." So "plastered" fits in that spot after BB's guess "legs". Which when you put the two together, it's just FUNNY.

I'll admit that one is a bit more obscure than Bunnidir.  |

Someone with a brother, who needed a vigil kept over him. I'm thinking this must be a Silmarillion or UT quote, but can't place it yet.

The legs riddle has been confounding me..
Midge's 'plastered' genius evoked a drunken night out replete with traffic cones.. ..and has led my imagination a merry old dance... Is it 'blistered' ?  If the speaker is more obscure than Bunnidir, I guess that rules out the infamous Tubdir Last edited by Butterbeer : 04-13-2016 at 09:05 PM. |

It's been too long, but is this from the UT account of the Druadin? Or maybe early life of Turin??? Getting warm at all?

Ding! Ding!
'blistered' is indeed the last remaining word. Clearly you three need to re-read your copy of UT  but Val has found where the quote is from. Now, I reckon the name of the speaker is asking too much, so what do we do? Let Val have the next quote since he identified the story? or should I ask for something more, like what the character is or what he did in the story? |

If you have to give us the speaker, then I think Butterbeer gets the next quote, since he solved the last part. My working toward the speaker isn't really a solve. Just a compass direction.
BB - good job coming up with 'blistered'!

Well, BB, would you like the next quote?
Or am I'm going to have to make you lot sweat to squeeze more of the speaker out of you?  |

Mkay. The speaker's name is written like a woolen blanket without the F or like being horrified or shocked without the ST but with an N.
