Lyta. That is great and I loved reading it. If you agree Feanor's art was inspired by Iluvatar then do you also agree that his pursuit of the Silamrils, however misguided, was also inspired by Eru.

Also, you have a good point in that Feanor's subsequent deeds do not lessen his craft. Similar to the works of Wagner. He was an anti-semite but the beauty of his music was clear perhaps even inspired by God. But I would say that his character was lacking.

Would you say that for all the gifts that Feanor possessed, he was flawed ethically?
