Welcome, one and all, to TORn's Founders' Day Celebration!
How well do you know your Middle-earth Kings?
I've scrambled the names of ten of those mentioned in LotR, and given you clues as to their identity. This should be easy, so - CLOSED BOOK!
(Oh, all right, peek if you REALLY need to!  )
1. Of him the harpers sadly sing: DALLIGAG
2. King under the Mountain: DINA
3. "Longshanks": ROARNAG
4. Lúthien was his daughter: LONGHIT
5. "Horse-master": MEERO
6. King of Dale: DRNAB
7. Last king of a cursed people: GONEFEDTHAKID (4 words)
8. King of the Elves of Northern Mirkwood: DARNIHULT
9. Bearer of Narsil: LEDLINE
10. "Dotard": HOTNEED
(Remember - no answers in the subject line!  )

I got quite distracted from unscrambling - your intent, I'm sure! Now I'm picturing Aragorn shouting at his horse, the King of the Dead leaving out treats for children, lightfingered Brand learning tricks from a certain burglar and all the shieldmaidens squealing over Theoden :)
