I think that Iluvatar was quite pleased that Aule decided to make the dwarves, because it gave him the chance for him to divulge another part of his mind -humilty. I think that because Iluvatar saw that Aule was so ready to smite his creations for him, that this was something he saw as positive, and so granted the dwarves life as a reward. does anyone know where the other 6 fathers of the dwarves (besides durin the deathless) went?
