Oh my! What's a simiril? That's not spelled like something Feanor made, is it?

I got this game at a discount party store because the name was misspelled. It was a good buy. The rest of the game is fine.

So - are we going to play?

*leans over and stage whispers* Them Bagginses is a strange lot, ain't they? With their high falutin' book larnin' and spellin'. Puttin' on airs like Feeeanor hisself. :P

*smiles and surveys the board* So how does one actually play this game? My mother issued a ban on board games after Bilbo and Hammy tried to flush the Monopoly money down the toilet.

*perhaps seriously* I blame myself for not teaching him to shop for bargins.

Well, we move our markers around the board and answer questions in a variety of catagories. If you answer one question in each catagory correctly, you can move to the center here *shows* and answer a random question. If you get that right, you win.

Here's a sample question: What song was Ilúvatar singing when the universe was created? I think they mean what song brought everything into creation.

Well, let's pull another card. *goes and gets one, reads*

All right. This is a two parter.

What are the names of the Two Trees and which was made first?

[elanorgamgee]

*smiling to herself* You know, I'm not sure if I remember which was created first, so I think I'll pass. *smiles* Does anyone know?

((Edited because having a long day is no reason for hobbitses to suddenly feel lackluster herself))

Tel-something is one of them, I think.

Are you sure the answer isn't Yggdrasil and Mimameid?
