I finally have my password memorized. No more reading now and posting later after I forgot half the stuff I was going to say.

Feanor of the Peredhil, I love your post. Abarpâ will have be dreaming fondly of his wife while he is in prison.

Sophia and I have already discussed, and like the idea of Inzillomi as daughter of Elendil; though not strictly canonical, it's not such a stretch. Wasn't it in the writing of LotR that Tolkien discovered Galadriel and had to rewrite the Sil? Well, I doubt he's rolling over in his grave over this.

One point to quibble over: The Elendili, as members of the Faithful, would be more likely to embrace female inheritance than the King's Men. It was Ar Pharazon who usurped his wife's rightful title as Queen by forcibly marrying her. So that's the only thing I can think of that needs to be revised in your post. - LMP
