Re: Why is enigma pretty much tied with maia and earth spiri

Good thinking, Voronwe. I like your ideas.

Tolkien's incomplete work is, in a way, richer to me than his 'canon' material. It leaves some of the details up to individual fancy and taste. This personalizes the stories to each reader, and helps bring them closer to home. For instance, and I know I've mentioned it before, I like to believe that Galdor of the Council is Galdor of the Tree...it just makes Elrond's Council feel that much nobler. <img src=smile.gif ALT="
