Aforetime it was held among the Elves in Middle-earth that dying the Dwarves return to the earth and the stone of which they were made; yet that is not their own belief. For they say that Aulë the Maker, whom they call Mahal, cares for them, and gathers them to Mandos in halls set apart; and that he declared to their Fathers of old that Ilúvatar will hallow them and give them a place among the Children in the end. . . . They also say that the Seven Fathers of the Dwarves return to live again in their own kin and to bear once more their ancient names . . .
