First of all, I'd like to congratulate Maedhros on a great topic. Keep up the good work! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Personally, I think that Maeglin had a chance to turn out alright, but a very slim chance. Even though Eol treated him wrongly, I think Maeglin still loved him in a way and his death and Aredhel's may have affected Maeglin's ability to reason well. Also, I'm sure the fact that Maeglin knew that even if Idril had loved him, he still couldn't of done anything messed him up some too. Sure, he did do some valient things, but I think its safe to say that pretty much anyone would have done the same thing as him if they were in the same situation.
