OK folks, as maedhros has pointed out, we are now turning our focus to part 3.

jallanite did a wonderful job of merging disparate acounts, but it stilll behooves us to go over it carefully and look for any possible mistakes and potential improvements.

Please note also that the Q30 is the basis for much of this section is NOT the QS77/01 [i.e. THe Silmarillion] although, if there is a good reason we can use some of the 77/01. But it was in essence based on Q30 and virtually all of it's variants are due to CJRT's 'stylistic revision ' and editing, and while we may well want to adopt his very changes in a later stylistic phase for now we wnat to build the text form the primary sources as much as possible.
