The Tolkien Translation Game!

[Voronwë the Faithful]

I was pretty confident of that one.

[Voronwë the Faithful]

This one changed quite a bit, but I think it could be a fun one.

Although they lost by one point, the game was over and it was great to see them bounce back!

[Jude]

I don't suppose Golfimbul was involved?

[Voronwë the Faithful]

Nope!

[Frelga]

Legoland vs. Gimli orc slaying contest?

[Voronwë the Faithful]

Yup!

[Voronwë the Faithful]

And?

[Frelga]

Sorry, I can recall all these random quotes but when it comes to actually finding them in the book I'm

[Voronwë the Faithful]

Someone should be able to do so!

[Jude]

Since the quote seems to describe the final tally of the orc-slaying contest, it's probably right after the battle. If that helps.

[Inanna]

Which was my situation in the Pippin quote.

[Inanna]

Is it Gimli at Hornburg?

[Voronwë the Faithful]

Yes (or thereabouts)!

[Jude]

I think I found the quote. If I’m right, then I was right about it being right after the battle. So if you look at the beginning of the very next chapter, you should find it quickly.

[Inanna]

Then that’s not the one I was thinking of. Here’s the one I found, but it’s too far from V’s quote.

“There was a battle here three nights ago, and here Legolas and I played a game that I won only by a single orc.”

[Voronwë the Faithful]

No it's earlier than thay, though thay is a good guess.

[Inanna]

Jude, you go.

[Jude]

You have passed my score by one. But I do not grudge you the game, so glad am I to see you on your legs!

If I'm right, I'll dedicate my win to Frelga or Inanna, whoever wants to go first. I only got it because of their hints.

[Voronwë the Faithful]

You are right, and I realize that I misspoke when I was asked if it was Gimli and I said yes, when I should have said it was said to Gimli.

[Jude]

You covered yourself by adding "or thereabouts"

Hey Frelga or Inanna...
