Elros Tar-Minyatur

Éomund · **Posted:** Sun Feb 23, 2014 9:27 pm

Haha probably too easy then, your turn

Who was the last King who ruled in Numenor and what heinous act did he commit during this time? Also in what year did he commit the afore-mentioned act?

GothmogtheWerewolf · **Posted:** Tue Feb 25, 2014 3:03 am

Ar-Pharazon, the name has been stuck in my head for years, didn't he fall in with Sauron, and launch a doomed attack on the Valar?

For the year, Second Age 3310, but I had to look up that last part if you don't mind.

Bandobras Took · **Posted:** Wed Feb 26, 2014 4:50 pm

Correct on all but the year. He began building the Great Armament in preparation of the attack in SA 3310 but did not attack in that year. My question was the year in which he attacked. So still open I'm afraid...

Ar-Pharazon; attacked the undying lands in a foolish attempt to become immortal (Sauron convinced him that the land was how the elves had such longetivity). His massive invasion happened in the year 3319 of the second age.

Bandobras Took · **Posted:** Wed Feb 26, 2014 10:15 pm

Fully correct VandalCabbage! Year 3319 of the Second Age. Your go

What was Queen Beruthiel the queen of and who was her husband?

NarsilReforged · **Joined:** Sun Sep 22, 2013 11:13 am **Posts:** 316

Queen Beruthiel of Gondor, wife of Tarannon Falastur? Famed for her 10 cats.

GothmogtheWerewolf · **Posted:** Sun Mar 02, 2014 11:55 pm

Whilst Beruthiel actually had 10 cats (9 black & 1 white), that was not part of my question, "Tarannon Falastur" and "Gondor" however are correct, and are my question, so your turn young Narsil

GothmogtheWerewolf · **Posted:** Wed Mar 05, 2014 2:23 am

Narsil?

NarsilReforged · **Joined:** Sun Sep 22, 2013 11:13 am **Posts:** 316

Sorry for the delay. Just got back from a 5 day school camp. Went Surfing. So much fun!
