Hmm... I've to disagree with that as well on some points.
Quote:
And that Power is Galadriel.
I think the power meant by Tolkien was not Galadriel herself but the Ring of Power she was wearing, Nenya, Ring of Adamant.
And the armies, which were spoken of in the quote: I think that would be the armies of Dol Guldur. If Sauron would've released all his power, when in Barad-dur at the time of the Battle at Minas Tirith's gates, at Lothlorien, the Forest there would fall. I think Tolkien meant the armies of Dol Guldur at that time.

Quote:
Royal elvish women DONT fight.
I believe they do, if need drives them. I don't think that the women of the Teleri didn't fight at the attack of Alqualonde.

And yes, Cirdan was the oldest elf of Middle-earth at that time, with his white beard [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

greetings,
