Hmm... Anyone ever read "Leaf by Niggle"? I wonder if Tolkien had a similar experience when he went Home...

Now there's a nice thought! You can almost imagine him sitting there in a "Rivendellish" setting pondering and creating. Filling in all the things that did not get finished before his departure. Whether or not Galadriel was actually part of the Revolt of the Noldor, or if after the death of the Two Trees she had just had her passport (so to speak) revoked. Whether or not it really was Glorfindel of Gondolin and when he came back. Who exactly was Gil-Galad's father, and whatever happened to the two Blue Wizards. Not to mention all the other things that happended in the world that we have no clue about. Like whether or not there was resistance to Sauron's rule in Rhun and points East, or in Harad and points South. And whether Balrogs had wings (you knew that was coming).
