Taking Middle Earth to be, well, not middle earth [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] you could say the first Kinslaying was important. It resulted in the curse of the gnomes, and therefore the First Age turned out badly and gloriously, a lot of things that wouldn't have happened happened because of that curse (or could be said to). It also resulted in the West being blocked from them, thus they couldn't get help until Earendel's time.
