Thanks for the clarification about the first quote. I meant in a different way actually. Why did Melkor desire the Silmarils? Not for himself certainly. Though my impression was that he'd want them... |

Forget Downer, there's no Tolkien fan here. Though I really, really want to meet people here. That's possible only if someone visits India. ;) |

They ate dwarves? I think that's Sauron's job to do- something that I already mentioned. More than the Elves I found dwarves were rude and mannerless. This is why I was too suprised to see them... |
