Rimbaud has just left Hobbiton.

I find Manwë the most fascinating. Observe the flaws within the concept of perfection. The most interesting facet I find to be his lack of comprehension of evil. As Eru's "main instrument" in the Second Theme, or the Creation of Elves, and the King of Arda he is clearly the mightiest, save Melkor, yet is a strangely subdued character.

Yet I found also Nienna and Mandos to be strong images. I have a sneaking admiration for all of them in truth but some pique my interest more so than others.
