What kind of gem is the elf-stone?

Ñólendil · 01-05-2002, 05:24 PM

I think emplynx was thinking of Hobbits, Elves, Men and Dwarves.

The answer to your question is: a beryl.

Now mine: Does a Balrog have wings?

Only kidding! What was the name of the Ent who burned to death in Isengard?

Beechbone.

Where in the Shire were kept the three largest history libraries at the beginning of the Fourth Age?

Garina · 05-14-2002, 04:29 AM

I think it was at Great Smials (Tookland) Brandy Hall in Buckland and Undertowers in the Westmarch. I think that's where the other hobbits descendents were (Pippin, Merry and Sam)
Ok now I have to think of a question. Hmmmmm.

Ooh!

Here's one: Who are the three joining couples of the Eldar and the Edain? __________________ Very Biased Alternate Script (but it's funny!):Click here! FREAK RAIN!!!!!!!! O.o Queen of prolonged unexplained absences and long, loooong car rides. Well, hullo everyone. As you can see, I don't hang out here muchly anymore. There's a good reason for this. Y'see, I've been hanging out at a different chatboard called Cardboardia. So far, I've been havin' a blast. Not that I don't love the TLA, but the magic of Entmoot is lost on me. So, as soon as TLA ends, so will my existance here, probably. Who knows though? I might stay. Highly unlikely however. This is a good bye in advance, then. Unless you want to join me and my group of friends at Cardboardia. Cheers!
