I guess you could get married in the blessed realm, and I guess if Legolas could get a drawf over the sea, Elrond certanly could. You have an interesting point. And no, i am not wholly sure but i dont think it specifically says elves have to "Give Up" their immortality, but apparantly, since there were only three marriages through the ages, it is a big deal. And I think now that maybe since Eru the One gave the elves a gift of immortality, going to marry a human would cause their immortality to be taken. But, you do have an interesting point. -aylwen [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
