I´m glad that they used Elb instead of Elf because only Roleplayers wouldn´t mistake "Elfen"(elves) for fairies(or the HP-elves).

The Lays are really great. I read them to and I´m grateful that none made a translation of them yet. It´s simply impossible without destroying these great poems.

Hasn´t really to with the topic, but is there a translation of the Hobbit by Margaret Carroux?
