Thanks for the responses so far, but I am still curious what everyone thinks about the heavy use of nature spirits in Middle-earth... Tolkien seems to be implying that Creation itself is very special, and deserves the utmost respect of Eru's children. In addition, Melkor and Sauron and even Saruman are portrayed as enemies of nature, twisting and mutilating and corrupting it to serve their own fell purposes.

What does the board think?
