[Eonwe]

Herm, unless i am quite mistaken (which is not a bad assumption), was it not curufin and his brother caranthir who jealously and quite without honor attacked Beren and his fianse, luthian? this tells us something of their jealous nature, and another about their lack of kingly honor, which is easlily disernable in the character of ingwe.

Anyway, do you really think four measly elves would even be a small match for the herald of Manwe? First of, Maglor would only sing songs of regret and pain, which don't faze me in the least. And im sure Maedhros - always rational - would see how he couldn't honorably defend a brother that could conceive such a dastardly plan as killing the trees and stealing the silmarils. and don't you think stealing the silmarils would quite put curufin out of his father's good graces?
