Petty Dwarf has just left Hobbiton.

Well, they're all lays of Numenor about Beleriand. In the cases of the lays of=about (ie: the Lay about Earendil). But I'm getting pedantic.

I was just wondering about Earendil, not within the TftE bounds, but as a work outside of the "Quenta Silmarillion". Unlike BoLT, Q hardly elaborates on Earendil's journey along the Outer Lands, and QS would follow that as well. There's more about it in Bilbo's Song than either of those, which makes me think Tolkien didn't abandon the idea, but meant it for a seperate telling.
