Hot, crispy nice hobbit has just left Hobbiton.
Heh, "Doom" is really often repeated around the works of Prof T... I guess he would have wrote "fate" instead, but it did not sound glamorous enough...

Actually, Mandos is the Valar of Doom... He is the ultra-morbid fellow who told Feanor that his dad is dead even before the messenger arrived. But surely when Nienor cried: "Master of Doom by doom mastered.", she actually meant that: "Master of Death by Fate mastered."?
