Hmmmmm concerning the dwarves however, it occured to me that when the Naugrim first encountered the Sindar, they already had a love of the earth and its metals and gems. But it was later mentioned that the Naugrim praised the gems of the Noldor the most. And seeing as how Caranthir came into contact with the dwarves, perhaps the dwarves learned everything about "enchanted" items from the elves, mainly the Noldor I would suspect, who came from Valinor.

Also, in the elf-lords topic, it was stated that elves from Valinor had a greater power (was that the term??) than of others. So then maybe the elves learned alot (if not all) of their 'abilities' from living in Valinor. Just a thought <img src=smokin.gif ALT=":smokin">

-Sûldal ~ "See, half-brother! This is sharper than thy tounge. Try but once more to usurp my place and the love of my father, and maybe it will rid the Noldor of one who seeks to be master of thralls." -Feanor to Fingolfin- -=I may be found merrymaking at <a href=http://www.barrowdowns.com/>The Barrow Downs</a>=- </p>
