Good answer NBarden, one for you!

This sort of thing is inherently unfair because it relies on people being online at the same time as me. (For this thread and the Rise of Saruman spoilers I’m online off and on all day, but never at 4:00am for example. ) That’s all right though... some people will just be lucky, and for the rest we’ll move on soon.
I’m going to do just one more set of five questions, starting now -- about twelve hours away from the first set, to give a different crowd a chance.

He was killed in the pits of Dol-Gulder, where gandalf found him and was given the map and key and ring of power. |

’Twas Finnish! |
Riddle 9
When I came to Abraham I let him live just a moment longer. When I came to Moses I saved his life more than once. But the salmon... I regret to say I had a hand in its death.

I was thinking Welsh, but now that you mention it, Finnish was about equal with it I believe.

Gorgun is a word for Orcs, and it was used by Ghan-buri-Ghan (one of the Druedain) in Return of the King. |

Hobbits.
Just to elaborate, the Ents have a "list" (more like a poem) of all living things, and Treebeard had never heard of Hobbits until Merry and Pippin. |
