What
Carried Arwen Off?
Here
is a riddle for you. (Just so you know I did not make up this
riddle but I made a few changes so it would fit on ME)
The hobbits in the story are Merry and Pippin.
What packed Arwen off?:
Aragorn already knew it was either a cave troll or an orc. Luckily, a
hobbit of the Shire saw it happen and told Aragorn which it was.
Later, the hobbit's cousin told the story to friends at the Shire what
had happened.
"My cousin told Aragorn it was a cave troll."
The problem is that one of the cousins told the truth, the other was
mistaken. We don't know which is which.
What packed Arwen off?

hobbit? So that makes Merry the...
Answer:

Pippin was the
first Hobbit or the one to see it happen and Merry was the second
