lathspell has just left Hobbiton.

Could any man living at the end of the TA make a speech as powerful as Eärendil's and bring a Silmaril with him? That is what made the Valar send their Maiar. No, Tolkien spefically stated that in his books.
Ofcourse, for anyone except Elves, Ringbearers and Istari it is practically impossible to even go to Aman. The Valar, and I guess Ulmo and Manwë would take care of it, would not let them reach the shores or even come within sight.

If anyone could do all these things again, go to Valinor, bring a Silmaril and speak to Manwë, there might have been a chance... but it could not be done!

greetings,
lathspell
