Théoden to Merry?

Post by **Alatar** » Fri Jan 06, 2023 1:10 pm

Yes to Merry, no to Théoden

Maybe spoken by Aragorn in his Strider persona?

Post by **Alatar** » Fri Jan 06, 2023 2:16 pm

Yes, and No

I don't think I would have found this without all the hints:

You are not fit for such a journey. But do not be ashamed.

Aragorn to Merry, just before leaving for the Black Gate.

Hint needed?

Post by **Inanna** » Mon Feb 06, 2023 5:31 pm

Oooh. Completely forgot. Here we go with the questions.

Does it refer to Gandalf & the Balrog?

Mon Feb 06, 2023 5:38 pm

Or Helm's Deep?

Post by **Jude** » Mon Feb 06, 2023 7:33 pm

No to all three.

Is it after the long-expected party?

Post by **Jude** » Tue Feb 07, 2023 4:37 pm

Yes, quite long after.

Does the word 'deep' appear twice?

Post by **Jude** » Tue Feb 07, 2023 6:16 pm

No, only once.
