When the Valar were created it is assumed they had all thier powers to begin with. So whether or not you were an ainur or maia your power was an absolute. How is it that after the death of Gandalf he had the power to command Saruman. Even if the white council had granted him leadership, all of the council members were less powerful than Saruman to begin with. So how was this possible.
