You have part one correct marbretherese.

Now for part two!

Stybba was given to Merry by Theoden right?

Airwin · Post by **Airwin** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 8:50 pm

That's right Philipa!

Now I guess you and marbretherese will have to decide who gets to go next.

Philipa · Post by **Philipa** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 9:18 pm

I'll let marbretherese get this one.

Thanks Philippa!! No rush on this Level 1 question as I'm going to be offline for a day or two . . .

. . . who were the "valiant men" who kept open the High Pass and the Ford of Carrock?

I will have a go.

I think these are Beorn and the Beornings (the Northern Men).

Got it in one, Gil! As described by Glóin to Frodo during the Feast at Rivendell.

Over to you!

Is it the Mirrormere (or Kheled-zâram)?

You got this one too Airwin! over to you!

Airwin · Post by **Airwin** » Fri Feb 29, 2008 6:59 pm

Thanks again Gil!

Another level 1:

What can you find in the Rath Celerdain?

Philipa · Post by **Philipa** » Sun Mar 02, 2008 7:40 pm

I believe it is the Old Gate House of Minas Tirith.

Airwin · Post by **Airwin** » Mon Mar 03, 2008 2:39 am

Close enough Philipa. It's the Old Guesthouse but the street did lead to the Great Gate.

Your turn!

Philipa · Post by **Philipa** » Tue Mar 04, 2008 12:11 am

Oh, did you want the street name? I had to look it up... Lampwrights' Street.

Level 1:

What was the name of the most famous of the copied Red Book called?

Bonus question: Who used this book for research.

Gil · Post by **Gil** » Sat Mar 08, 2008 12:18 pm

Philippa, this is the Red Book of Westmarch.

Oh sneaky and tricksey hobbit, lots of people used it for research.

do you mean JRRT? or Eleanor's descendents? or the Tooks, or Findegil? or have I missed the one you had in mind???
