I find the last 3 paragraphs [esp. Feanor giving the Jewels to Yavanna] in IV [p.165] a very compelling end to the Legendarium although sketchily writen and placing it before the akallabeth would be problmatic I suppose it should go at the end of a 'of the rings of power and the third age' or even in a seperate appendix of it's own - if it should be kept at all.
In the past Michael M. has I think argued against keeping it, as did Saulotus. Other thoughts ?
