*Cringe* So sorry...yes, 6 hours was correct, Dunedain. Good job!

Dúnedain · 01-17-2003, 10:19 PM

Yaaaaaaaaay

Ok here is my question!

What is the magical substance known as Starmoon, what is it and where did the Fellowship come across it on their quest?

Lizra · 01-19-2003, 10:20 AM

I don't remember that! (any hints?

)

Legolaslvr! · 01-19-2003, 01:53 PM

I agree with Lizra that is a hard one!!!!!!!!!

***azalea*** · 01-19-2003, 02:53 PM

I have a feeling that in the book it isn't called Starmoon," but is translated from another language (elvish or dwarvish?) as starmoon. Just a thought.

Renille · 01-19-2003, 03:39 PM

Does it have anything to do with the metal inscription on the door at Moria?

Yes it does

Renille · 01-19-2003, 04:02 PM

OOH! Then I think I know what I'm doing! Starmoon is also called ithildin, and is only visible in starlight and moonlight. The company first meets this metal when they read the inscription which reflects the moon. It reads "The doors of Durin, Lord of Moria. Speak,friend, and enter." And underneath "small and faint" it is written:"I, Narvi, made them. Celebrimbor of Hollin drew these signs."

Am I right?

Yes you are right, and it is also made from Mithril...

By the way, though, Gandalf encountered it earlier. Think back to the Hobbit, and the Quest of the Mountain: Elrond uncovers secret writing in "moon-letters" on Thror's Map.

By the way, this is "Fellowship of the Ring" trivia, and the question was, "When did the Fellowship come across it?"

Renille · 01-20-2003, 04:32 PM

Yay! And I was tempted to mention the Hobbit meeting with the moon-letters. But then I remembered that it WAS only Fellowship Trivia...

My question- What was the thing that Tom Bombadil chose from the wight's lair and why was it special?

***Earniel*** · 01-20-2003, 05:11 PM

A jewel in the form of a butterfly I believe. It was a gift for Goldberry.

He chose for himself from the pile a brooch set with blue stones, many-shaded like flax-flowers or the wings of blue butterflies. He looked long at it, as if stirred by some memory, shaking his head, and saying at last: 'Here is a pretty toy for Tom and for his lady! Fair was she who long ago wore this on her shoulder. Goldberry shall wear it now, and we will not forget her!'

I believe you're right, Eärniel.

Arcala · 01-20-2003, 08:43 PM

why does everyone get the answers before i do?

Legolaslvr! · 01-20-2003, 10:28 PM

The same with me!

Renille · 01-20-2003, 11:10 PM

Earniel is...wr...excuse me...RIGHT!

Good job! Now ask a question and I promise not to answer it!

***Earniel*** · 01-21-2003, 07:40 AM

*falls from chair* I'm right?

I don't know whether it has been asked before (I hope not) but here goes:

What was Arwen wearing on the feast in Rivendell after Frodo recovered from his wound?

barrelrider110 · 01-21-2003, 01:01 PM

She was dressed in grey with a belt of leaves in silver, and a white lace crown also silver with gems.

What is the magical substance known as Starmoon, what is it and where did the Fellowship come across it on their quest? __________________ 'Et Eärello Endorenna utúlien. Sinome maruvan ar Hildinyar tenn' Ambar-metta!' - And those were the words that Elendil spoke when he came up out of the Sea on the wings of the wind: 'Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come. In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.' 'Then Tuor arrayed himself in the hauberk, and set the helm upon his head, and he girt himself with the sword; black were sheath and belt with clasps of silver. Thus armed he went forth from Turgon's hall, and stood upon the high terraces of Taras in the red light of the sun. None were there to see him, as he gazed westward, gleaming in silver and gold, and he knew not that in that hour he appeared as one of the Mighty of the West, and fit to be father of the kings of the Kings of Men beyond the Sea, as it was indeed his doom to be; but in the taking of those arms a change came upon Tuor son of Huor, and his heart grew great within him. And as he stepped down from the doors the swans did him reverence, and plucking each a great feather from their wings they proffered them to him, laying their long necks upon the stone before his feet; and he took the seven feathers and set them in the crest of his helm, and straightway the swans arose and flew north in the sunset, and Tuor saw them no more.' -Of Tuor and his Coming to Gondolin "Oh. Forgive me, fairest of all males of Entmoot...Back down, all ye other wannabe fairest males! Dunedain is the fairest!" --Linaewen
