I ain't lookin' to drag this out too long, so here's a hint:

the answer involves a gift.

**EddieMuerto** · Jun 20 2014, 10:36 AM

Ummh.
faelnirv? or rather something having to do with it?

**bambubambubambu** · Jun 20 2014, 11:18 AM

Not quite sure what that is...

but to make things a bit clearer: the alcohol is the gift.

**Laura_Everett** · Jun 20 2014, 08:38 PM

I assume alcohol can be any kind of beverage... And accolade is a gift or reward, so I assume what we are looking for is the gift of a changed/altered/modified (Adjusted) drink from one to another?

Under these parameters my guess would have to be... Miruvor - given to Gandalf by Elrond before the fellowship departed.

**bambubambubambu** · Jun 20 2014, 09:53 PM

Let's try another track...

The alcohol did the altering (influenced), and the accolade was verbal. The Lotr time frame is correct though.

**Laura_Everett** · Jun 20 2014, 10:27 PM

Perhaps the ent-draught drunk by Merry and Pippin in which it adjusted their height?

This is turnin out to be harder than I thought it would be. Go towards the beginning where a gift of alcohol influenced someone's opinion.

I'll drop another clue: the alcohol gift was wine.

It was the old wineyards laid down by Bilbo's father and given to one of his relatives (name escapes me at this time), the Relative named him a Capital fellow after the first bottle

Edit: the Relatives name was Old Rory Brandybuck

Sorry no, the answer has to do with the word dream.

Does it have to do with Pippin and the Palantir?

Three of the four main hobbits had dreams in the house of Tom Bombadil (Sam slept like a log), which is located on the outskirts of the Old Forest. Are you looking for a particular specimen of these dreams?

The dream is not a dream.

**Egorvlad** · Jul 10 2014, 08:33 AM

Well, there's also the Fellowship stay in Lorien which was rather psychedelic with them losing track of time.

The Old Forest is closer geographically.

**Wilros** · Jul 11 2014, 09:53 AM

When Sam shared his cousin Hal's report of seeing a walking tree in the Shire?

oooh we have the correct character, but the wrong dream. You are getting close.

Incidentally I'm generating a base of trivia questions for LOTROcon. Submit yours at: Swig and Trivia.

I'd appreciate all the help we can get.

Remember, the dream is not a dream.

Frodo passing out in the Barrow-downs and waking up seeing his friends dead(The Spell on the mound that Bombadil broke)? Haha, took me a few times to reread before I caught it.

Still no, hmm i thought this would be easier.

The character involved is Sam
The Old Forest is close Geographically but is NOT the forest in question.
The dream is not a dream.
