I can't stop!! At this rate, I'll reach Wight status just on this thread!
This came up on the random quote:
<blockquote>
Quote:<hr> "Aurë entuluva!
day shall come again."
Húrin each of the 70 times he slew a Troll at the Nirnaeth Arnoediad<hr></blockquote>
Your interpretation and mine agree here. He slew 70 trolls. Then umpteen Orcs. Don't you have to account for that time somehow? The text is spare and stingy as to details, but isn't it implicit that it took <u>some</u> time to do all that hacking? Can't I get you to agree to that much, anyway?
