Ok, so we have most of it right. Except the missing words. Only wrong word is the first "on". So:
I do not doubt there is some shadow/o_/the Great Darkness lying there still away north; and/_a_/memories are/_a_d_d/_o_n/. But there are hollow dales in this land where the darkness has never been/_i_t_d/... Any takers on the speaker? Last edited by Midge : 01-14-2006 at 07:05 PM. |

You've got all the words in the quote right, now who said it?

Nope, none of them. Hint: Don't think of people who have names that are hard to remember. It is a pretty main person (though not Aragorn).
