The Flame Imperishable is Iluvatar, as said many many times above. What I did not get was what Melkor wanted with it. Okay, he wants to make a race. He really doesn't need it; after all, why give a slave free will?

I don't think that Melkor's original desire was to create slaves; he genuinely wanted to create things, like Iluvatar.
