My brain hurts from thinking about this too much! :S

Grasping at straws time:
They are both Sindarin elves, they both lived in woodland kingdoms, and they both eventually went over the sea to Valinor.
That's all i've got.

Time for a rest... :faint:

Kinslaughterer?

Err wait, wrong books. :P

That's a pretty tough one given that Tolkien pretty much abandoned the letter K when he decided that C could do the job just as well.

Actually, I think I just got it.

Kili the dwarf in the hobbit.

(only thought of the Dwarven angle because Khazad-Dum was the only K-usage I could think of)

OI! Answer my question first Stonemaybe. :D

Fine! I'll answer it myself. Celeborna dn Legolas' father Thranduil are cousins, their fathers were the sons of Elmo, the younger brother of Elwe and Olwe.

What is Tulkas' surname?
You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

Sorry VS! I honestly thought it'd been answered by Reave - that it was a trick question and that they weren't related!

Tulkas' surname was Murphy, wasn't it?

You mean this Elmo?

8O :biggrin:

Dunno about Tulkas.
I think he was "Tulkas the Valiant" in one story or other. What's Valiant in Quenya? If only I'd paid more attention in Elvish class! :)

:oops:

There might only have been one. :oops:

Didn't know the answer myself when I posed the Q. I know there was a "Khim".

I thought there was another one, but I may have been wrong.

Sorry. :lol:

One of Turin's band of bruvvas shot him with an arrow.

A Hobbit question now:

What was Thorin and Co's raven helper called?
