AHA! i think i might just have had a mini-revelation on this: k, so he wrote these lost tales BEFORE the LotR (trilogy) SO he made up the character of legolas (just an elf that EXISTED) but then maybe decided to use him when he wanted an elf for the Fellowship, and fleshed out his background and personality??? i think he just 'morfed' a little...maybe?
SO i think it's the same guy...just he became a real character later...?
