I suppose I should relent on Lenwe too. I was looking for Denethor his Son but I guess Lenwe's people must be Nandor too - but I will check.

You had that right before smiley - winkeye

Ring keepers still not right, although you have put all the names in various answers now, just not altogether

Oh, and Almaren is right.

Why is everyone saying Ar-Adunakhor? smiley - erm

To be fair, I went and checked that one and reread the Akallabeth this morning. It seems that that one may be an unfair question as there is no mention of a Civil War in that.
AS I said, these questions are from memory. If you read the Appendices on LOTR regarding the fall of Numenor it is said that there was 'strife and rebellion' in the reign of Tar Palantir which is the answer I was looking for.

Pretty much it.

I have given the answers as I see them seeing as some were a little dubious.

And there is a third quiz - possibly the last as I'm struggling for questions now.
