Re: Literary devices

Saul, I liked the Epilogue very much. I've never read the History of the War of the Ring, so I can't compare it to the original.

Same for Maeglin. Nice job of combining and editing texts. Don't doubt that some might dispute "canonicity" of some minor details (I really don't), but that would only get worse if a more difficult subject is tackled.

above the reek of earth leap forth." </p>
