The newer edition is wrong <Altaira> [1/31 @ 20:51] (1/1)

Something that's been bugging me about Dwarven architecture: <Ataahua> [1/31 @ 19:49] (9/20)

Well, boringly practical idea, but <Greenwood Hobbit> [2/1 @ 13:23] (0/0)
cultural inferiority complex <drogo_drogo> [2/1 @ 12:42] (1/1)

They aren't called the Stone Masters for nothing <PhantomS> [2/2 @ 9:09] (0/0)

It wasn't heaven for Elves, either <Calenia> [1/31 @ 20:20] (1/3)

They were the spirits of the Elves, the ones who had died. Valinor was a bonus for staying alive all those ages ;) (No Text) <valie_yavanna> [1/31 @ 22:16] (1/2)

Heaven is where you go when you die, so Valinor isn't be heaven <Calenia> [2/1 @ 5:31] (1/1)

The Valar didn't have that power only Eru. <Ossë> [1/31 @ 18:00] (1/5)

What Melkor sought... <Watson> [1/31 @ 20:20] (1/4)

Death is considered a gift to men from Eru <Calenia> [1/31 @ 20:24] (1/3)

That is a part of it <Watson> [1/31 @ 21:04] (1/2)

They are in fact expressing opposite points of view <Calenia> [1/31 @ 21:46] (1/1)

Earendil and Elwing <Galadar> [1/31 @ 9:17] (2/6)

Here is some of the story (long, Silmarillion spoiler, of course): <Eärendil The Mariner> [1/31 @ 13:19] (0/0)
... <Ossë> [1/31 @ 9:24] (1/4)

Indeed <Galadar> [1/31 @ 9:32] (1/3)

Why no animals in Lorien? <Curious> [1/31 @ 8:53] (7/32)

Nasty, dirty creatures <Calenia> [1/31 @ 21:31] (1/1)

Hee hee. (No Text) <Curious> [2/1 @ 2:43] (0/0)

perhaps... <Nemain> [1/31 @ 16:29] (0/0)
Interesting question <Thevina Finduilas> [1/31 @ 14:40] (0/0)
I think we just don't see the animals and birst of Lorien <Idril Celebrindal> [1/31 @ 11:54] (1/10)

Might that disturb the balance <Curious> [1/31 @ 12:07] (3/9)

Food vs. recreation <JewelTook> [1/31 @ 13:48] (1/2)

Nope, and we do know <Curious> [1/31 @ 13:57] (1/1)

Very interesting analogy. <JewelTook> [1/31 @ 14:11] (0/0)

That's why I said "innocent" instead of "good" <Idril Celebrindal> [1/31 @ 12:42] (1/1)

I agree. But how does <Curious> [1/31 @ 13:45] (0/0)

Did Tolkien consider the fox a good animal or bad? (No Text) <HeavyFurball> [1/31 @ 12:18] (1/3)

Good. <Curious> [1/31 @ 12:35] (1/2)

Yes.. <HeavyFurball> [1/31 @ 12:44] (1/1)

True. <Curious> [1/31 @ 13:47] (0/0)

Lorien seems like a tended... <JewelTook> [1/31 @ 11:48] (1/3)

Aragorn does mention <Curious> [1/31 @ 12:04] (1/2)

Oh, you want a serious answer. OK... <JewelTook> [1/31 @ 13:39] (1/1)

How <Curious> [1/31 @ 9:54] (1/7)

Yes... <HeavyFurball> [1/31 @ 11:38] (1/6)

It would have to be <Curious> [1/31 @ 12:12] (1/5)

When was Sauron first called the Eye <Curious> [1/31 @ 7:49] (5/27)

P. 281, Silmarillion, 1977 edition, as Osse said <Calenia> [1/31 @ 21:17] (0/0)
my guess... <Nemain> [1/31 @ 17:02] (0/0)
This does beg the question of context. <Hama of Rohan> [1/31 @ 12:49] (2/2)

His appearance as an Eye began <Curious> [1/31 @ 14:04] (0/0)
Sauron's eye is more far-seeing than that <Smallbottle> [1/31 @ 13:46] (0/0)

I think... <Ossë> [1/31 @ 8:21] (3/12)

I'm not sure this answers the Palantir question <Smallbottle> [1/31 @ 9:37] (1/5)

I agree. <Curious> [1/31 @ 9:49] (1/4)

Hey! Not fair... <Ossë> [1/31 @ 12:16] (1/3)

What <Curious> [1/31 @ 12:40] (1/2)

Yes, of course, but <Curious> [1/31 @ 9:07] (0/0)

Thanks! <Curious> [1/31 @ 8:27] (1/3)

But, <Curious> [1/31 @ 8:48] (1/2)

Also but... <Ossë> [1/31 @ 9:13] (1/1)

You are correct, but <Curious> [1/31 @ 9:43] (0/0)

I guess <PhantomS> [1/31 @ 8:18] (1/8)

That's why I ask. <Curious> [1/31 @ 8:22] (1/7)

I'm stuck on this idea so even this wouldn't persuade me, unless <Smallbottle> [1/31 @ 9:39] (1/6)

There is an easier <Curious> [1/31 @ 9:52] (2/5)

Don't forget Galadriel's mirror <Smallbottle> [1/31 @ 13:48] (1/1)

A little less <Curious> [1/31 @ 13:58] (0/0)

My task is to confuse. <Reverend> [1/31 @ 11:26] (2/2)

Thats a good point but... <Ossë> [1/31 @ 15:11] (0/0)

No such animal. <Reverend> [1/30 @ 21:54] (0/0)

Elrond <Inferno> [1/30 @ 21:02] (1/15)

But that would mean.... <Reverend> [1/30 @ 21:22] (2/14)

Elrond was too human, and not Noldorin <valie_yavanna> [1/30 @ 21:44] (1/7)

Elrond <PhantomS> [1/31 @ 4:07] (2/6)

Gil-Galad was only accounted High King... <aragonvaar> [1/31 @ 7:21] (1/2)

technically speaking <PhantomS> [1/31 @ 7:45] (1/1)

Yes...but that was AFTER Earendil had grown to manhood... <aragonvaar> [1/31 @ 8:35] (0/0)

Yes, but... <Reverend> [1/31 @ 10:36] (1/1)
