I don't think Celebrian or Arwen were on the Council. Celeborn, on the other hand, I think, was there all right.
Also, as I have just read the thread, I noticed a mistake in the first post: Quote:
Also thinking of this quote Quote:
Quote:
Actually I think the Council counted numerous members, most of whom followed Saruman over Gandalf. The ones listed in the first post (Galadriel, Elrond, Círdan, Glorfindel) would likely vote for Gandalf, but note: the majority was always for Saruman. I imagine Celeborn usually voting against his spouse. Likely some members were more or less nominal, and didn't attend every meeting. I think Radagast was a member, but not a very active one, preferring his home at Rhosgobel to the talk of politics. Cirdan was likely a rare guest as well, maybe sending a representative instead.And no Thranduil - nobody called him to the White Council of 2941, he was at home at this time. And Mirkwood had tense relations with "the Wise", especially Noldorin Elves since Oropher's times. Moreover, Thranduil got no Ring to defend his land and must have felt frustrated. |
