Re: Hmmm

While rereading portions of the Silmarillion, I came across a reference in the Darkening of Valinor chapter to the Teleri declining to attend the Festival of the first fruits at Manwe's halls because they &quot;recked&quot; little of the changing of seasons, festivals and the activities of the Valar choosing instead to sing by the sea. Perhaps the Teleri/Sindar were simply less serious than their Noldorin brethren and more susceptible to singing nonsense songs and poking fun at &quot;mortals&quot;.

"The Silmarils with living light
were kindled clear, and waxing bright
shone like stars that in the North
above the reek of earth leap forth." </p>
