Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The book starts out with Sam and Frodo.

Answer: False

It startes out with Pippin riding with Gandalf on Shadowfax. They are on their way to Gondor, where Pippin later becomes a Guard of the Citidel!
2. What is the name of the rider who helps Merry, and lets him ride on his horse with him?

Answer: Dernhelm

"Dernhelm" let Merry ride under his cloak until they were so far away that he had to stay, then he could ride in the open. After that, he was OK to ride out in the open.
3. What is the name of the chapter (In "The Two Towers") in which Shelob hurts Frodo?

Answer: Shelob's Lair

Sam saw Frodo "asleep" under a cliff in Galadriel's Mirror back in the "Fellowship of the Ring". In this chapter, he sees that Frodo wasn't asleep, but dead. Or so he thought...
4. Where was the last battle fought in the whole story?

Answer: The Shire

The last battle was in the shire against ruffians under "Sharkey's" comand. The hobbits fought a valiant battle, even after some of the hobbits were killed. *sniff*
5. Arwen goes to the Grey Havens to live forever.

Answer: False

After Aragorn gets crowned king, Elrond started on a journey with Arwen from Rivendell for the marriage. The marriage of Aragorn and Arwen!
6. Who found Pippin under-neath a troll after the great battle?

Answer: Gimli

Gimli said he could have fainted after seeing a pair of hobbit feet underneath a giant troll. I personally would like to see a dwarf faint! I have a sneaking suspicion Legolas would too!
7. What was the name of the herb Aragorn used in the "Houses of Healing"?

Answer: Kingsfoil

One of my personal favorite parts on the whole series! In this chapter, the nurse Ioreth speaks a phrase she later finds out is only too true! "The hands of a king are the hands of a healer."
8. Who did Goldilocks, daughter of Samwise, marry?

Answer: Faramir son of Peregrin

Goldilocks married Faramir in the year of 1463. Samwise had 13 children in all! Talk about Cheaper by the Bakers Dozen!
9. Who said in "Return of the King": " They need more gardens, the houses are dead. There isn't enough of what grows and is glad."?

Answer: Legolas

Legolas was talking of Minas Tirith. Gimli also was talking about the stone work in Gondor. "The old stonework is good..."
10. Who discovered that Eowyn was not dead, but badly wounded?

Answer: Prince Imrahil

He held "the bright-burnished vambrace that was upon his arm" over her face, and behold! a thin mist was laid about her mouth! GO Prince Imrahil!
