And of course, once Frodo leaves the Elves how many more of these "dreamless slumbers" does he really have?

Frodo's known for his vivid dreams, so its quite notable that he has a good night's sleep without being troubled by dreams. I know how he feels because I'm sick and fed up with having overly vivid dreams

But I often think it could have something to do with the 'difference' of Elves, maybe even with my old favourite topic, sanwe. It's quite possible the Elves helped him have that 'dreamless' sleep.

Very interesting though, as if I was writing about someone laying down to sleep in the company of Elves, I'd be more likely to write of someone having quite wild dreams
