Halfir - your point about Gandalf being send back by the One I now find quite correct. I had no knowledge of these quotes, so I assumed that (pointing out the Beren, Luthien and Glorfindel history) the Valar did this.
As for Gandalf having to transform is, I think, not true and I agree with Amarinth. It seems that the One saw the urge in this matter, as you point out yourself.

Interresting ideas about 'the drop of the stone', I haven't thought about it yet but I'll soon begin thinking about it.

greetings,
lathspell

P.S.: Halfir - I think I'll count you according to the brave men. You were right about quite a few points about the matter, so you can't be interpreted as 'foolish'. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
