When I first read lotr and Silm I thought the Valar were real jerks because they wouldn't help even when so many innocent people begged them to do something... But after reading The Hobbit, HoME and UT I understand that if the Valar came and made everything alright all the time it wouldn't be very...... what's the word.... well it wouldn't make very good books that for sure and as for the question I think the Valar didn't want to do much, but they knew how much was needed to be done to get the right outcome... did that make sense?? Anyways it made a bestseller [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
