Sinking Beleriand - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Regarding the other thread.....there was not a complete consensus regarding the two sources. Most people seemed to agree, though, that the process of sinking was much slower than in Numenor, and no one was drowned. However, the exact rate of the sinking seems to be still in doubt.

I did notice one thing. Gwaihir mentioned that Tol Fuin sunk and then re-emerged. That could have some bearing on our story line. Is there a way to check this?

I don't know what those footnotes are. One is the name of a king of Numenor (the first one), but don't know where these footnotes are.
