I am researching Aragorn's history, and I have a question:
I understand that Elrond and his brother Elros (Aragorn's ancestor) were half-elven. After the War of Wrath, Elron chose to be an Elf, while Elros chose to be a Man. How did he do that? How can any one person relinquish his or her immortality? Is it when they marry a Man? Any input on this would be appreciated.
