Ungoliant- Melkor - Lúthien - Eärwen - Galadriel - Elrond

(the only one I'm not sure of is the Lúthien-Eärwen connection. They were cousins, but I can't recall an actual passage in which they met. It wouldn't surprise me if I were missing some simpler solution to this puzzle)

How about Ungoliant - Morgoth - Maedros - Elrond?

Skip, the thread is yours. That one works and it is I think the shortest one possible.

Alrighty.

Question Would this work?

Ulmo > Ossë > Círdan > [Gil-Galad] > Tar-Aldarion > Erendis

I am not entirely sure, but I suspect that it may be possible to remove Gil-Galad and still make the connection.

Can't you go straight from Ulmo to Cirdan? Anyway, I believe you have it so I'm not going to try another version.
