Urwen, this is about Lalaith, not Celegorm's love interest.

They suffered? Bah! Morwen was the only one who stopped pretending at that point! But Hurin thought a great deal of what's "proper", that's why he tried to make a song. Why couldn't he make it? Didn't have enough words? But he knew that music can express what words can. So why did he throw away his harp? Because his "lament" turned to a song of celebration way too many times.

And why did he curse Morgoth? For giving him such a daughter, not for taking her away. He didn't do this before, because he was afraid Lalaith would find out and play an extra trick on him.

But don't forget Nienor. Morwen named her 'mourning'

Why do you think she named her so? Hum hum

Burarum...rum..rum...

Well, duh, because it was the exact opposite of "Lalaith"!

You see? She wasn't taking any chances...

No, she name her thus because she mourned for Lalaith;;;;;;

Nope. What an absurd idea! Why in Middle-earth would anyone mourn for Lalaith?!

Urwen · 02-23-2011, 08:07 AM

Because Lalaith was a happy child, and extremely happy daughter....

Only when inflicting pain on other living beings.

No, it's because Hurin didn't return. Morwen was mourning for Hurin.
