Cirdan the shipwright. My favourite elf of all, and probably (I think) the wisest.

I'll just start on him for now. He has been alive on middle-earth for around 15,000 years. I'm sure that in that time he has had time to sort out a nice house. Think about that- 15,000 years in a tiny corrugated-mithril-roofed house?

Anyway, I'm sure it wasn't that bad. I know he wanted to go West, and was allowed to, but still, after bidden by the Valar, he stayed for many long years, through the darkness. If it wasn't a nice place, he certainly would have left.

I wonder how the Grey Havens looked. Imagine it. The sun setting behind the sea and the sea breeeze... wait I'm getting a bit carried away. I have a question myself. Do you think the Grey Havens were built up with stone, or more rural? And was it bustling during the day, or peaceful and quiet? Cheerful or Gloomy (I can imagine a cold breeze whistling through the cold stones of a long forgotten building, but I hope it wasn't like that)?


PS. I know I haven't really contributed much, so I'll try and post a more informative thing sometime.
