[QUOTE=Lalaith;538709]The other highlight for me is the nobility of Finrod Felagund...."needing no ring to remind him of the kin of Beor".[QUOTE]

Don't forget, Finrod did kill a Werewolf with his bare hands. Anyway, without this Aragorn would not be alive, remember that. And neither would Elrond. How else is Maiar blood going to go into the royal (later Numenorean) bloodlines. 'Tis an echo of the tale of Aragorn and Arwen.

Eurgh! If you think about it, Aragorn and Arwen are actually like cousins, except that it has many generations' gap between them, so his royal (and Maiar) blood is probably far more diluted than Arwen's
