Some happy marriages ended in tragedy though, such as Denethor and Finduilas. Denethor loved her, that is clear, and most likely she loved him back, but they couldn't be happy. So is Tolkien saying that sometimes, love just isn't enough? Or is it a sign of the evil growing over the world that is so overbearing it can get in the way?
