Interesting post Huinesoron.
I wonder if we (despite what I just pointed out above!) could have the scenario: many Balrogs
before the siege of Utumno > reduced by this battle to a more limited number for later in the First Age. Granted I'm just making this up, but...
... "many" could be left vague, and the survivors of Utumno would be quite notable in Gondolin, along with that later recreant
Durin's Bane.
I'm sort of used to imagining "some" at the War of Wrath, but JRRT never really fully updated the conclusion to QS, so... or am I just liking the idea to help me in some Galadriel argument I have in the back of my mind?
Hmm. I can't always trust me
