How are the lays from LoB going to be incorporated into this project, if at all?
I think it would be great if important dialogue or profound declarations could be used in the poetic form. I have in mind particularly the colloquy between Beren and Thingol from The Lay of Leithian. It gives me those pleasant Tolkien tingles.
Feanor's oath in the abandoned Flight of the Noldoli would be nice, but I doubt the principles of the project or the laws of the poetic style it is written in would allow the modification it would require.
Obviously any contradictions with later material should be considered, and it might just feel wrong to have a small section of poetry in a predominantly prose story.
Anyway, I was just curious.
