From where to where leads the Endless Stair?
khazadum to Durin's Tower?

That, however, is correct.

Sorry for asking this a bit late but I thought it was Minas Morgul To Shelob's Lair.

No, the Endless Stair is definitely in Moria, from the lowest depths to Durin's Tower atop the Silvertine. See Gandalf's description of his battle with the Balrog, The Two Towers, Chapter V, "The White Rider."

There is, of course, a very long and steep stair that Frodo, Sam, and Gollum ascend to Shelob's Lair -- which is so memorably depicted in the movie version -- but it's not the one Tolkien named the Endless Stair.

Oh ok, thanks.

Your turn Marky.

Marky Lazer · 1st March 2006, 09:17 AM

How did Leod got killed?

Marky Lazer · 3rd March 2006, 12:54 PM

No one?

Maybe a hint... Leod was the father of Eorl the Young, the founding King of Rohan.

scalem X · 3rd March 2006, 04:09 PM

beheaded?

Marky Lazer · 3rd March 2006, 08:19 PM

Non, monsieur.

scalem X · 3rd March 2006, 10:41 PM

crushed by a dragon?

Teresa Edgerton · 3rd March 2006, 11:10 PM

Well, at least you're getting closer.

I'm surprised, Marky, that your clue about Léod being the father of Eorl the Young, that famed hero of Rohan, has not suggested anything to anybody.

scalem X · 3rd March 2006, 11:42 PM

suicide? Jumped of a cliff?

Teresa Edgerton · 4th March 2006, 01:48 AM

I think no one is going to get this one, Marky. Better ask another.
