I'm sorry for posting this new thread. some may consider this too much for a newby.

i just wondering, how many there is a union between elves and men? especially during the early days of numenor when numenoreans have much dealings with the elves in the valinor and in middle earth. we know that the elves posses unearthly beauty. i can't imagine any men that don't fall in for them on sight. if i meet an elven lady in some woods alone, i might've feel compelled to molest her (no offence to any womens). besides, i do read about the marriege of Imrazor the numenorean with Mithrellas, a maid of Nimrodel. it is said she dissapeared after giving Imrazor his first child. where is she now?

concerning the three union, we know that luthien and arwen lost their immortality when they wedded the mortals. but what about idril? where is she? what happen to her. if Elves wedded the mortals, do they lost their imortality.

i apologized for all this silly questions. i've read the LOTR trilogy only. i wish to read all the books concerning the histroy of Middle earth but my pocket can't compensate for my desire.
