“There are locked doors and closed windows in your mind, and rooms behind them” said Faramir to Gollum, before extracting the oath that Gollum will tell no one of their hideout.

Re: The Tolkien Translation Game!
Is this a positive kind of phrase, like "Hurry, and I'll give a good report of you?"
The dumbest thing I've ever bought
was a 2020 planner.
"Does anyone ever think about Denethor, the guy driven to madness by staying up late into the night alone in the dark staring at a flickering device he believed revealed unvarnished truth about the outside word, but which in fact showed mostly manipulated media created by a hostile power committed to portraying nothing but bad news framed in the worst possible way in order to sap hope, courage, and the will to go on? Seems like he's someone we should think about." - Dave_LF

Is this someone killing someone and sending them swiftly to their master?

Re: The Tolkien Translation Game!
Because I have mentioned Child and the Hobbit here before.
Child: I read the whole Hobbit this time. Including the parts I had skipped.
Me: And? (waiting with bated breath for accolades about the book, imagining handing her LOTR to read and posters in rooms and family Halloween costumes and LOTR themed birthdays.... )
Child: It makes a lot more sense.

Back to the quote - we know it means "Hurry up and I will give a good report to your Master"
Third Age. How many Masters do we have? hmmm?
