trivia game

Hello everyone. Well, after Fin told me that this comes from Book V, I found it, in

Okay, well, as I was trying to say, this comes from Book V, Chapter 4, "The Siege of Gondor," and it's spoken by Denethor.

"'As for the sortie, I have already given thought to it. Let us go down.'

Time passed. At length the watchers on the walls could see the retreat of the out-companies."

So, now, here is one for all of you, from Book IV:

"'He's getting near now, near enough to hear a whisper.'"

Hope that one's not too easy for ya.

-Elentir

Indeed Gollum had suddenly paused again, and his large head on its scrawny neck was lolling from side to side as if he was listening.


Next
Aragorn sped on up the hill.

This is the opening line of TT.

"Aragorn sped on up the hill. Every now and again he bent to the ground."

All right, I'll try again. From FR:

"It was Gandalf who roused them all from sleep."


-Elentir

He had sat and watched all alone for about 6 hours, and had let the others rest.

Next:
Silence fell again.

I didn't realize this one was so hard (but then I've forgotten where I found it)

I hope you remember, because I, for one, need a hint. The most pitiful part is, I just finished a re-read!

No such luck. I don't even remember which book

can't find it

Shall we skip it and do another?

Yes please.

Ok. I'll put one up when I get home (don't have the books at class).

Try this one instead.
Then we can go quickly.

sorry, i didn't get that one i gave up on it, to be honest... give us a hint!

Again, I've forgotten where I found that one.

:lol: That is too much!

It doesn't help that I had to junk the only copy of the LOTR that I know like the back of my hand (it got oil spilled on it and I was NOT going to put it on the shelf with other books). This means that I have either a one volume hardcover or a set of missmatched books to work from, neither of which I really know.

This is OT, but anduin, why do you all of a sudden have only 4 posts?

Need to skip this one? A quick tip for preventing the questioner forgetting where he or she found the sentence would be to answer fairly soon after the trivia is posted

I mistakenly used my global user "anduin" to make that post. Normally i post with local "anduin".
