What broke the peaks of Thangorodrim?

General Elessar · **Posted:** Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:04 am

The dragon Ancalagon the Black broke them when he fell on them.

Dead Marsh Spectre · **Posted:** Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:48 am

He most certainly did - you to go.....

How many times is Lady Galadriel asked for a strand of her hair, and how many does she give?

Dead Marsh Spectre · **Posted:** Sat Sep 17, 2011 9:32 pm

once and three strands

Sir Richard · **Posted:** Sun Sep 18, 2011 8:09 am

She is asked four times and she gives once, and that to Gimli. She gives three strands.

General Elessar · **Posted:** Sun Sep 18, 2011 11:20 am

Sir Richard is correct.

Sir Richard · **Posted:** Sun Sep 18, 2011 3:46 pm

Thanks General! :wink:

What is the other name of "Iron of the Flaming Star" who forged it, was it reforged, and if so what was its name then?

Dead Marsh Spectre · **Posted:** Sun Sep 18, 2011 4:06 pm

Anglachel forged by Eol the dark elf - reforged by turin and named gurthang

Sir Richard · **Posted:** Mon Sep 19, 2011 6:11 am

Everything is correct except for one; Turin did not reforge it.

Dead Marsh Spectre · **Posted:** Mon Sep 19, 2011 7:31 am

O.k Turin reforged the sword with the help of the smiths of nargothrond, or maybe Turin just sat back and watched the expert smiths reforge the sword whilst he had a cup of tea and ate pancakes? I think the second answer is the right one.

Sir Richard · **Posted:** Mon Sep 19, 2011 8:55 am

Yes, ur right, the second answer is the right one! LOL :-D

Dead Marsh Spectre · **Posted:** Tue Sep 20, 2011 7:17 am

Name the three characters from the three descriptions.

1)The mightiest in skill of word and hand, more learned than his BROTHERS; his spirit burned as a flame.

2)The strongest, the most steadfast and the most valiant.

3)The fairest and the most wise of heart.

The biggest clue I can give is in the question..... good luck!
