The Silver-shod Muse has just left Hobbiton.
Pipe The Halls of Mandos

I know that the spirits of elves went to the Halls of Mandos after they died, and so too did the spirits of men. What happens after that? Do the righteous and brave and self-sacrificing share the Halls with the wicked and craven and selfish? How are the spirits "judged", when and by whom (assuming they are judged at all)? Do the good guys get any reward? Do the men and elves get separate spaces?
