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

I don't think it is a matter so much of POWER as of the rejection of it, the lack of POWER that the ring held on such a one as Bombadil.

Could Tom Bombadil have been awakened before the other men (assuming for argument's sake he was an unfallen man)?

I'm afraid that the most recent quotes do not clear the matter up at all! Though I'm happy that it seems to make my musings less radical than I thought.
