Everyone has such good answers! Lush, you do bring up a good point though- Aredhel was a woman (and an
elf) and she wasn't perfect! I also think it's interesting!
Quote:
I was actually overjoyed when I found Aredhel in the Sil, if only because most other females that populate ME are so darn perfect. And if they're not, they still come to good in the end. Not Aredhel.
By saying this, I'm not trying to celebrate stupidity and selfishness. I am trying to point out that Aredhel, in my eyes at least, makes Tolkien's work more complete
