This is worse than Mordor! Much worse in a way.
It comes home to you, as they say;
/_e_a_s_/i_/i_/home,
and you remember it before it was all ruined.

***Valandil*** · 11-21-2003, 05:48 PM

All correct so far, Artanis.

Tuor of Gondolin · 11-21-2003, 05:48 PM

This/is/sworse/then/Gondor/!/much/worse/in/a/way/.
/It/comes/home/to/_o_/,/as/they/say/;
/_e_o_s_/it/is/home,
/and/you/remember/it/before/it/was/all/ruined/.

I have a feeling it's in The Scouring of the Shire. Frodo?

***Valandil*** · 11-21-2003, 05:49 PM

Tuor,

You solved the 'it' and 'is' which Artanis didn't. The speaker is not Frodo.

One word and the speaker left to be solved.

Artanis · 11-21-2003, 05:52 PM

I think the speaker is Sam. But the last word is hard ...

Tuor of Gondolin · 11-21-2003, 05:53 PM

This/is/sworse/then/Gondor/!/much/worse/in/a/way/.
/It/comes/home/to/you/,/as/they/say/;
/because/it/is/home
/and/you/remember/it/before/it/was/all/ruined/.

I have a feeling it's in The Scouring of the Shire.

Yes, it does sound like Sam (oh, well)

***Valandil*** · 11-21-2003, 06:00 PM

Uh Tuor... maybe shoulda mentioned it specifically before, but "Gondor" is wrong on yours.

Tuor of Gondolin · 11-21-2003, 06:03 PM

Right. it's Mordor. But Artanis got the speaker first, Correct?

Evenso, he still provided the last missing element, since Mordor had already been named before he provided the missing word, which was "because" so it is his turn to post a quote.

***Valandil*** · 11-21-2003, 06:07 PM

(Originally in response to Tuor - two posts up)

Yes, but it was only after she did so that you solved 'because'... I thought you'd pick up the 'Gondor' mistake since it was in hers... so really, I should perhaps have noted that the first time you posted it.

If Artanis doesn't mind, I'm inclined to give it to you... I also don't recall you posting in this thread as much as many of us, so it's nice to get more players! (Artanis?)

I think SGH is hanging out around here somewhere, we could appeal to her higher wisdom in sorting out who goes next, if needed.

(EDIT: cross-post with SGH... and she seems to agree with me. Your go Tuor!)

Tuor of Gondolin · 11-21-2003, 06:11 PM

Okee-dokee. This will take a minute.

I just went ahead and deleted the quote in your other post Tuor.

***Earniel*** · 11-21-2003, 06:54 PM

"Even Dwarves!"Suddenly in my mind these/t_r_e/things have/_o_e_h_r: the great dragon with his list, and his keen/_e_r_n_/ and/_c_n_;the/_t_r_y/_e_v_-b_o_e_/Dwarves with/_h_e_r/all/b_r_i_g/_r_d_e;/and the/_u_c_, soft-footed Hobbit.

Tuor of Gondolin · 11-21-2003, 07:25 PM

have,all,and list are incorrect.

How about the speaker?

Ruinel · 11-21-2003, 11:04 PM

"Even Dwarves!" Suddenly in my mind these three things came together: the great dragon with his lust, and his keen hearing and scent; the sturdy heavy-booted Dwarves with their old burning grudge; and the quick, soft-footed Hobbit.

It's Bilbo, who else.

Tuor of Gondolin · 11-21-2003, 11:24 PM

The quote is correct. Your turn.
And the hobbit referred to is Bilbo. But the speaker is
_a_d_l_.

As a bit of trivia, consider who the audience addressed is and where it takes place.

Ruinel · 11-22-2003, 01:23 AM

ah, shite.... hmmmmm... Gandalf?

Tuor of Gondolin · 11-22-2003, 11:00 AM

Gandalf?

Yes

In "The Quest of Erebor"
