YES! I'll take that. My edition only spells them a little differently: "Araphor" son of "Arveleg I"
Your turn Radagast...  |

I was gonna ask that - or something like it.
Hmmm... I don't think ANYONE predicted a woman would kill him - but it was Glorfindel who predicted that he would not be killed by a man. |

Three of Aragorn's grandparents are named. Give those names and say which is which (ie: paternal grandfather, paternal grandmother, maternal grandfather, maternal grandmother).

Dunadain - that's right - your go!
Something tells me that you and I could go back-and-forth for a long time with questions on Arnor/Arthedain/Northern Chieftains! ... maybe it's our names! |
