* An unofficial New Silmarillion Outline *

[Findegil]

Glorfindel is not named as coming during the Third Age in 'The Tale of the Years' and in the essay it self the possibility that an Elve would be send in the Third Age is clearly denied. So at least the 'Glorfindel' part is in the 'Blackyears section.
And the Istari we have to discuss. The essay from HoMe 12 might be a proposed change that we can't use due to 'The Tale of the Years'.

'The Black Years' is Tolkien base so he probabaly never used it as a documenttitle, but as a Name of time period describt.

My reservations about 'The NEw Shadow' and the argument given in the discussion with Arvegil145 are still valid, but as with so many other problematic ingredents, I think we should try and see from the result if it feasable.

I did forget the Leangue-trees from the Lhammas, but would as you say include them connected to the Lhammas.

Respectfully
