Way to go, Frelga! And I thought it was either Merry and Pippin addressing Fredegar Bolger...

Yay!

ETA: Jude, that was my first thought, too. But Fatty was staying behind, not going.

So many things it could be... Here's a wild guess:

Frodo, to Sam in Mordor?

No, no, and no. :P


Enemy bringing their enemy is relevant here. ;)

Aragorn to Gimli, regarding orcs fighting amongst themselves! Or possibly Orcs fighting with Uruk Hai?

Yup. The latter, technically, I suppose.

Don't you just love these drive-by quiz-solvers :D

If crucifer isn't back soon, anyone can jump in with a new question...

It's been a while since I've read the books, so I can't *quite* remember who fought who at what point, hence the lack of certainty about orcs/Uruks.

Hmm, its referring to Gandalf as the White Rider. I'm guessing Gimli?

It's not Gimli, but it is referring to the White Rider. (I was hoping you'd initially think it was referring to the One Ring...)

I seem to recall that this was said in Minas Tirith, so Pippin?

I think the line "and against some I have not been measured" is in the vicinity, no?

It is not said by Pippin, nor is it said in Minas Tirith.

Neither by Théoden, nor quite in Rohan is it said, but geographically I think you're coming a bit closer. (If I've got my middle earth geography straight...)

In Helm's Deep, then?

Wild guess, as the other characters are being eliminated: said by Aragorn?

It is not in Helm's Deep! It is, however, said by Aragorn.

Bonus point for location, but I believe it is now Jude's turn.

Okay - was it in Orthanc, or on the way to the parley with Saruman?

Okay, since he said it was my turn anyway, I looked it up :D It was actually before they met Théoden for the first time.

New quote: and please mention what prompted him or her to say this:

"They cannot conquer forever!"

Was it Sam? In Mordor? With a star?


ETA: or wait! The king got his crown?


And Frodo, not Sam.
