Very close guess Summer... but the wind doesn't sit still...

And why hasn't anyone guessed at the third riddle?

::smiles and chuckles:: Well well, good sir, I wasn't specificy replying to you missive, and if it seemed so, sorry. But where in my post was there something "smart?" Please do not denote intelligence by age and make everything into a mudsling, for all do respect posts like yours are just the ones to start that. Please refer anything else to me through private missives for I do not want to foul this pleasant post. That is my a-n-s-w-e-r.

With respect,

I am mighty,
I am awesome,
I have killed many without a sword,
I am no taller than hobbit,
I am no smarter than a monkey,
I have a fear of fairies,
Who am I?

You will never guess, hehehehe

I believe that the riddle in question...Luthien's...was from Bilbo, to Smaug as he had descended into the hall under the mountain under the spell of the rings invisibility.

1 and over

many or more

when you finish grab another or even see another

talking without sound

over and over again, they always are there

different shapes and sizes, but always the same

26 designs make up all of them



What are they? i made it up, could be faulty.

For the record, the little guy in the History of the War of the Rings was Gollum, not Golem.
