Re: Peredhel

I agree entirely, Lindil. The fact that Dior ruled Doriath with no hint of controversy was why I had always assumed that he was considered to be elven. I had always thought that Earendil was the first of the Peredhel.

The point about him having to make no choice because the Valar knew he would die young is also interesting. If he were of the Eldar, Mandos would have been aware of his fate, but if he were mortal his fate would have been unknown to the Valar.
