Orcish Fear

[Tirned Tinnu]

*Tinnu puts her hands into the attitiude of prayer*
Black Lieutenant, you said:

Incidentally, Earendil comes from the Germanic god Earendel, who was the god associated with the Morning or Evening Star, and this could be any bright planet seen at twilight, whether Venus, Mars, or Mercury. Earendel was a god of mariners because stars were essential to navigation.

I beg you! Please make another thread with more information on the Germanic Gods? Or PM me with a source. I am keen to learn more of the Tribes' Gods, as they have not been studied/mentioned here in my local schooling.

NOW. All this Orcish titter-tatter makes my ears ring! I long ago decided that while there were more Elves on MI that the Orcs would have been twisted Elves.
When the Men took over, and there were few Elves to be found, it would make more sense to use Men, then, wouldn't it?!
*Shaking her head*
If Tolkien said it in an interview, or in a letter, I will adhere to it. Simple as that. The story changed, that's all. Being a writer is going to be a tough thing, if people are going to rip and tear at your former copies!
I should burn mine, so as not to have all this quibbling.
However, the noise made in here had brought up several points about other things that I desire to learn about.
*Puts in her earplugs*
Tittir-tatter on, I say, therefore. I'll just enjoy the fire. Yell if you stumble on something else! (Or pull out one of my earplugs.) [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
