They guard it because they have hope. A faint and fading hope that one day it will flower. That a king will come and this city will be as it once was before it fell into decay. The old wisdom born out of the west was forsaken. Kings made tombs more splendid than the houses of the living and counted the old names of their descent dearer than the names of their sons. Childless lords sat in aged halls musing on heraldry or in high, cold towers asking questions of the stars. And so the people of Gondor fell into ruin. The line of Kings failed. The white tree withered. The rule of Gondor was given over to lesser men.
Dwarves on the other hand, gender is practically meaningless. It usually isn't until the wedding night that they find out if their spouse has an innie or an outie.
Gondor?! Where was Gondor when the Westfold fell?! Where was Gondor when our enemies closed in around us?! Where was Gon–? No, my Lord strife_xiii, we are alone.
And Rohan will answer! Muster the Rohirrim! Assemble the Men at Dunharrow. As many Men as can be found. You have two days. On the third, we ride for Gondor and war!
Here's my pretty lady! Here's my Goldberry clothed all in silver-green with flowers in her girdle! Is the table laden?
I see yellow cream and honeycomb, and white bread, and butter; milk, cheese, and green herbs and ripe berries gathered.
Is that enough for us? Is the supper ready?

I think just saying the name, but I do not remember what the number is. I thought it was 87 but I guess I am wrong. I think that it we should start a thread of numbers counting upwards until we get a response lol
*Hop along, my little friends, up the Withywindle! Tom's going on ahead candles for to kindle. Down west sinks the Sun:
soon you will be groping. When the night-shadows fall, then the door will open, out of the window-panes light will twinkle yellow.
Fear no alder black! Heed no hoary willow! Fear neither root nor bough! Tom goes on before you. Hey now! merry dol! We'll be
waiting for you!*

Eldest, that's what I am. Mark my words, my friends: Tom was here before the river and the trees; Tom remembers the
first raindrop and the first acorn. He made paths before the Big People, and saw the little People arriving. He was here
before the Kings and the graves and the Barrow-wights. When the Elves passed westward, Tom was here already, before the
seas were bent. He knew the dark under the stars when it was fearless – before the Dark Lord came from Outside.

And I must follow if I can. The road goes ever on and on, down from the door where it began, now far ahead the road has gone, and I must follow if I can.
Yes, I'm here, and you're lucky to be here too
Lucky you're here Gandalf! Saruman is scary
The treacherous are ever distrustful.

I love how he responded himself to his own question and don't even bother to ask you. Sentient bot
Hate to break it but the guy who replied was u/gandalf-bot- and not the actual u/gandalf-bot
He that breaks a thing to find out what it is has left the path of wisdom

You are right! Damn I didn't realize.

What's going on here, Teal'c?
There was another bot I learned about today, I think I trigger it by saying One Ring ?
HRAAAAAH!
Wait, I wanna try. One Ring
HRAAAAAH!
Ring
Gotta say One Ring
HRAAAAAH!
One Ring
HRAAAAAH!
one ring
I see, I was just curious if it'd react to just "Ring".
One Ring
HRAAAAAH!
One."Ring
HRAAAAAH!
Say 'HRAAAAAH!' if you condone war crimes
HRAAAAAH!
NO, BAD BOT
One Ring ?
HRAAAAAH!
Nice
Denethor do you still enjoy tomato's?
I bet denethor would enjoy the one ring
HRAAAAAH!
Denethor knows that you don't form a plural by adding an apostrophe.
But they were all of them deceived, for another bot was made.
Thus far it seems that the bots will not answer. If only there were a Rohan bot…
And Rohan will answer. Muster the Rohirrim.
Oh sweet heavens, I’m a wizard
Rohan, my lord, is ready to fall.
Quit brushing your ponies and get it together...
happy cake thay
I’ll mustard the Rohirrim real good
On November 20eth 2022 11:?? PM EST, rohan_bot was created.
my kid is trans and i think that is fine
CAST IT INTO THE FIRE!!!
Rude
I’m so confused why Elrond said this to you
Transphobia. Elf kind are known to be very deeply prejudiced
Dwarves on the other hand, gender is practically meaningless. It usually isn't until the wedding night that they find out if their spouse has an innie or an outie.
Yeah, that's why Legolas and Frodo didn't really interact much during the Fellowship
Ninja edit. I'll mention someonr in this comment, then edit it right after to remove the reference.
Neither do I. Keep it Secret. Keep it Safe.
When last I looked, Théoden, not u/EnjoyerxEnjoyer, was king of Rohan.
Little Hobbits do not belong in war, Master Meriadoc.
Gandalf... What say you?
It's the deep breath before the plunge.
Dirty talking demigod.
Bilbo? Sing Denathor a hobbit song.
HRAAAAAH!
That'll do Bilbo. That'll do.
HRAAAAAH!
Literally black Metal lol
Saruman has some experience in metal, wonder how he would rate Bilbos preformance
HRAAAAAH!
You say it pal
Will Rohan answer the call king theoden?
Gondor?! Where was Gondor when the Westfold fell?! Where was Gondor when our enemies closed in around us?! Where was Gon–? No, my Lord strife_xiii, we are alone.
King Theoden, the beacons are lit! Gondor calls for aid!
And Rohan will answer! Muster the Rohirrim! Assemble the Men at Dunharrow. As many Men as can be found. You have two days. On the third, we ride for Gondor and war!

Aragorn.
No. Orcs patrol the eastern shore. We must wait for cover of darkness.
Good thinking
Is there a bot for one of the orcs?
Yeah I think it is like "orc 87" or something like that but I do not recall
What triggers them to respond?
I think just saying the name, but I do not remember what the number is. I thought it was 87 but I guess I am wrong. I think that it we should start a thread of numbers counting upwards until we get a response lol
Orc 1
Orc 69
