That's part of the extended scenes I seen that only ones a long time ago but i think he refers to Gandalf as grey beard when clearly his beard his white

[Duke of Metz]

Correct, the blade (Anduril, originally Narsil) was in fact forged by the dwarf Telchar. The line in the book is:

"It takes more to make a king than a piece of elvish glass, or a rabble such as this."

Which sounds like a reference to the Elessar rather than to his reforged sword of dwarvish origin.

Edit: we need some new players so I can spread some rep around!

[Flinn]

tell me if anybody needs to be repped, and if you have to spread it, you can rep me at any rate

anyway, shameless attempt apart, I'm happy to see that Charger is in the game too now, keep it up!

let's see the new question, but leave people some more time to answer, if you want to see new players..

This next question has to do with the new movie. I'm sorry if you haven't seen it and can't answer the question. I'll try to keep spoilers to a minimum.

In The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, one of the dwarves is poisoned by an orc's arrow. What is the arrow that it is so deadly? What is the supposed cure (according to the movie)? And why would the cure not work at all if the movie had stayed true to the lore? (There are two parts to the last question).

[Incredible Bulk]

Dang i don't know this one. But weed. And I have now clue

[Redgrave]

Poison
Kingsfoil (Athelas)
Tauriel couldn't have used it (she wasn't the king of Gondor)
It didn't grow in Laketown, and people there wouldn't have used it to feed pigs

Kingsfoil (Athelas) and the fact that it doesn't grow there is correct (it only grew where Numenoreans lived, i.e. Arnor and Gondor). The rest, not so much.

[Redgrave]

Well, it was a long shot anyway. Good question though!

[Nastrael]

Well, it was a long shot anyway. Good question though!

If no one else answers soon , I guess you'll get the next one.

[Nastrael]

Well, here are the answers in order:

The arrow had a "Morgul shaft" which implies that it has the same properties as the Witch King's Morgul blade which he used to stab Frodo.
Kingsfoil (Athelas).
Athelas only grows where Numenoreans dwelt, i.e. Arnor and Gondor.
Athelas does not help against being stabbed by a Morgul blade (weapon in this case). Athelas is only used to cure the Black Breath. In order to be saved, Frodo had to be taken to Elrond, who, while being a very powerful Elf, also possessed Vilya, which has inherent healing properties. Even so, Frodo would've been beyond hope had he arrived a few hours later.

Your turn Redgrave.

[Redgrave]

If it's alright, I'll pass my go onto anyone who wants it

(if you're reading this and nobody has asked a question yet, go for it!)

[Incredible Bulk]
