Legolas and the Balrog

[Eru]

Doesn't seem likely that he would be shocked by the trees and Ents of Fangorn yet be familiar with crebain.

he never was 'shocked' by the ents. well, maybe there age, because I remember him saying that he would feel young again if he were to meet an ent.

i've read this whole thread now, and i'm confused about the main point...

anyways, yeah, since elves live such a long time, knowledge is preserved far more readily than Men can preserve it. anyways, i have to go. promise to edit later. so i make sense...
