Re: The role of Fate in Middle Earth

I think free will is that boulder.

You know, with all this Fate and Destiny stuff, I don't think anyone's yet mentioned Doom. It's through Tolkien that I was impressed with the inherent sense of fate in that word (way beyond C3PO's constant "We´re doomed," in Star Wars).

But tell me, who are you, alone, yourself and nameless?</p>
