But lets talk again about her last decision. Was that one right? What would have happend if she had gone with Túrin? Wouldn't that have been much better for Túrin? He would have been forced to take her to some shelter and protect her. Would she have urged him go to Doriath?

Yes, probably all what you say is true, but, don't you think that all decisions in Túrin's tale are wrong? Don't you think that, like in the case of Aerin's death, things would have been better if only somebody had behaved in a different way?
I do think so. And for me, that is the reason why Túrin's tale is so sad, because I am always wondering 'what would have happened if only ....?'. And this is also the reason why Túrin's tale reminds me of nordic mithology: because fate (as opposite to free will) seems to rule all characters and all their choices [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
