“8 - A wealth of lore re: the Noldorin princes inc. how Feanor killed his youngest son w/ out remorse. [peoples]”-originally posted by lindil.

Your making Feanor sound out to be some kind of remorseless monster! I mean come one, I know he was bad, but not that bad. He accidentally killed his son, as he didn’t know that he was sleeping on the ships beforehand.
And he did feel some remorse;

“ That ship I destroyed first” he said, hiding his own dismay.

Thanks for re-opening the topic, BTW!

Here are some of my reasons:

1. Feminism in M-E (Aldarion and Erendis.) I’m not a woman, but I do sympathise, in some ways with non-radical feminism. And it made me laugh.
2. More stories on Finwe and his house! (Home 4,5, 10, 11,12, esp. the Shibboleth of Feanor)
3. ‘Tal-Elmar’ -shows what life may have been like for the Haradrim.
4. ‘Bilbo was getting married’ Originally Bilbo was leaving the Shire to get married! Thank god for Tolkien changing that!
5. HoME 4 shows us early geographical conceptions of Arda.
6. Great psychological discussion in ‘Myths Transformed and Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth’
7. More stories on the first age and al the ages of the Valar.
