Legolas has just left Hobbiton.

I didn't mean Elrond was light years ahead of Galadriel or anything - each of the Wise have their own strengths or 'specialties.' It was just to say that Elrond too had his strong points and a great 'power' about him. Both were very powerful and served similar roles in the story of The Lord of the Rings.

Quote:
As Tolkien himself says, the Rings give power according to the measure of their bearer. Galadriel is much more powerful than Elrond, so Nenya would give her a lot more power than Vilya would give Elrond, making Nenya seem more powerful than Vilya.
If we use this logic, then Narya is the greatest. Gandalf was far greater than Galadriel and Elrond.

Elrond was a beast.
Heh - I don't really imagine him to be a beast. Make sure you steer clear of the 'Elrond's a wuss' thread [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
