Thenamir has given us the Human-Elvish perspective on them, but is that the whole story?
I am on admittedly murkier ground here, but I interpreted the quotes of my last post to be those of an "omniscient author" rather than a "Human-Elvish" history. I am curious to know if those who are better informed can expound upon Tolkien's intent here. Thanks!
