Has anyone ever...?So, this comes to mind... were the Noldor not the slavation of Men? Imagine had they never sailed out of Aman, that Fëanor had been placated, everyone went back to their peaceful little existence in... |

Having never read Smith I cannot post with much authority, but I do know what it is that moves me about the Silmarillion. It is the tragedy about it. The utter tragedy. So many noble figures,... |

Even if he just robbed him of his physical form, it would be a feat. I believe he could have done it, for I don't think Fëanor was as bound by the Oath as were his sons, though perhaps it is because... |

Well, 'virtue' is probably not the best word for it. What I still am trying to say, if I could find the right words, is that there is some 'root' of power in all virtuous and good things, though... |

By virtue, it seems like there are beings of power, even if they are not 'magical' per se. Elrond refers, in the FoTR, to the "power of Rivendell" and the "power of Bombadil's house". I do not see... |

The Nature of Magic in Middle-Earth
What exactly is the Nature of Magic in Middle-Earth? From the Tale of Beren and Luthien, we see Luthien do alot of "magical" things, such as sing all Angband to sleep, and make her hair grow so she... |

Well, maybe Dior was given the choice in the same manner as Elrond? And also, was Elwing half-elven or all elven? These family trees get oh so confusing... :rolleyes: |
