could someone reference where it is stated that the Eldar/Ringbears/Istari etc.. go to Eressea AND Valinor and not one or the other? I know that from Legolas' poem in 'The Field of Cormallen' he atleast assumes that he will go to Eressea and it seems (though i unfortunately can't site a reference) that Galadriel is permitted to return to Valinor after the end of the Third Age. So, those who returned either A)Got to go to either one or B)Had to go to a specific one(perhaps not the same one for everybody). Can anyone offer reference to clarify?
