I noticed this as soon as I read it. We all know the three resting places of the Silmarils are the air (Earendil) and that Maedhros cast himself in a chasm of fire because he was burned by one and Maglor having been burned as well cast the remaining one into the sea. (or was it the other way around???)
Anyway, When I read that it came to me that the three Elven rings of power are Air (Vilya), Fire(Narya), and Water(Nenya). Anyone else notice this????
