What was the first light that shone in Valinor, after Melkor and Ungoliant smote down and destroyed the two trees?

Was it the silmarils that Morgoth stole?

Feanorthenoldor · **Joined:** Wed Sep 02, 2009 6:44 pm **Posts:** 879

good guess, but no.

Here's a hint. The light came from a certain "animal" of one of the Valar.

'Then the pursuit was begun; and the earth shook beneath the horses of the host of Oromë, and the fire that was stricken from the hooves of Nahar was the first light that returned to Valinor.'

Who was the Warden of the Great Gate of Gondolin at a time?

Ecthelion killer of Gothmog (the balrog)

Not sure when he was on guard duty instead of duelling big scary monsters.

Lhosseth · **Joined:** Sat Nov 22, 2014 7:51 pm **Posts:** 72

Because the big scary monsters had not found Gondolin at that time? Or perhaps guard duty was meant to prevent them from coming in...

Your turn
