Question 5 - Your uncle invites you to tea, but you're surprised when he gives you a short sword and orders you to kill another Shire resident. What do you do? [In reply to] Can't Post

1. Obey your elder and kill the Shire resident with the short sword.

2. Offer your uncle a keg of Old Toby and a bottle of miruvor in return for the Shire resident's life.

3. Ask your uncle for an Elven great sword instead. After all, you wouldn't want to miss.

4. Point behind your uncle and yell "Look! Something distracting!!" then run and find Gandalf.

******************************************
Elves and Men and Dwarves gonna cower,
When I finish building my tower,
When I finish building my tower with the Eye on top!
Watch that Eye and see how it glowers,
Ain't no contest between the Two Towers,
Nosey folks'll peek thru' palantirs and their eyes will pop!
The battlement's black and immeasurably strong, an adamant mountain of iron,
A buttress of steel, impossibly tall, held aloft by the power of Sauron!
See that Eye a winkin' and blinkin',
Ain't no finer tower I'm thinkin',
You can keep Orthanc if you're thinkin' that I'd care to swap,
For my black and shiny tower with the Eye on the top!

This [In reply to] Can't Post

is Sting, a Gondolindrim blue-glowing double-edged yrch slayer, the world's most powerful short sword. Do you feel lucky today, punk?

"I meant to take you to the seax shop, No time now. So I thought, perhaps, you would care to have this, don't you know?' [In reply to] Can't Post

What? Sting is clearly a seax, the characteristic short sword of the Saxons https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seax

Your uncle wanted you to have this when you were old enough. [In reply to] Can't Post

This is Sting, the weapon of a burglar. Not as clumsy or random as a bow or an axe. An elegant weapon, of a more civilized First Age.
