Gandalf the Grey - related anagrams. Can't Post

I have made a whole slew of LOTR-related anagrams and thought I would post some here from time-to-time. On my anagrams: I make as many words as possible out of a person's name or a place, and then string them together and try and make a story. I allow myself to borrow a letter from time to time and it is always in [brackets]. An "s" can be used freely only at the end of a word.

Gandalf the Grey

Gandalf, a great angel, heals hearts and alters fates.
Gandalf enters Age Three Arda, greatly aged but hale.
Age Three Arda deals greed, fear and Fey Death.
Gandalf darts near and far and deals tales [of] danger and Fey Death.
The Elfs greet Gandalf and heed Gandalf's tales. The Elfs yearn Fey Death's defeat.
A great Elf grants Gandalf Narya the Red. Narya grants Gandalf great feats. Fey Death feels danger and fear.
Gandalf gathers great Ardan hearts, Half Lads gather the Ents and get near the Great Eye.
They defeat Fey Death.
Gandalf and Great Ardan Hearts free Arda.


Olorin

Olorin roils.


Glamdring

Glamdring rings, a grand grail.
Glamdring aids mind and arm to damn Grim Liars.
Glamdring rings in Liar's Lairs.

Please, call me Ve.

And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.

Awwww, well, thanks. But these anagrams tend to have a "flow" to them. [In reply to] Can't Post

I am not at all sure how much of it actually has to do with me. A few more quickies (I would do The Lord of the Rings but my time is short and it is pretty big).

Thorin, Son of Thrain

Thror is sire, Thrain his son.
A hint of taint, of rot.
Thorin is Thrain's son.
Thorin is no oaf, is not soft.
Thorin is not faint in his h[e]art.
Thorin rants, is hot. His iron fist hits Host of Rot.
Host of Rot torn, Host of Rot rots.

Dis

Dis is -id.

Orcrist

Orcrist rots orcs.

Erebor

Erebor bore ore.
Erebor bore orb.

Smaug

Smaug, a smug mug.
Smaug's gas sags.

Please, call me Ve.

You might want to post these over on the Main board, they might get more responses - there are lots of LOTR-related word puzzles and such on Main.

These are so neat - it's amazing how the anagrams are so appropriate to the original words. I really like "Erebor bore ore". And also "Gandalf, a great angel, heals hearts and alters fates." Smile
