Fingolfin of the Noldor has just left Hobbiton.
Thumbs up

That's exactly what I did. The "...like two vast wings..." sets the stage and is what my enitre first arguement is based. The like simile was used in the context of the balrog just as similic wings and seeming literal wings were used in the context of describing numenorean ships, to cite one example.
