Sorry for the delay, folks! I will not be able to give this thread much attention, so the floor is open. I was looking for, job. My apologies again if this was confusing and difficult.

'It's the job that's never started as takes longest to finish, as my old gaffer used to say. And I don't reckon that these folk can do much more to help us, magic or no. It's when we leave this land that we shall miss Gandalf worse, I'm thinking.' TFOTR.

Well, since the floor is open, I think I'll jump in and start a new one shall I?

One of many I am, yet of me there are three. What am I?

Is it perhaps the three-peaked mountain, Gundabad?

It is not Gundabad! But that was a good guess, I can see why you'd think that. :tongue:

Is this the River Gelion, one of the seven rivers of Ossiriand ("many"), itself consisting of the main river and its two tributaries, the Little Gelion and the Greater Gelion ("three")?
