Re: The Teleri

I agree with WiW that, as is stated in SILM, that the Teleri could not give up thier ships because of the love they had for them.

<blockquote>Quote:<hr> But as for our white ships: those you gave us not. We learned not that craft of the Noldor, but from the lords of the Sea; and the white timbers we wrought with our own hands, and the white sails were woven by our wives and daughters. Therefore we will neither give them nor sell them for any league of friendship. For I say to you Fëanor son of Finwe, these are to us as are the gems of the Noldor: the work of our hearts, whose like we shall never make again.<hr></blockquote>

As is also stated in SILM - The Valar didn't got to war because they feared what might happen to the second born (men) whom they did not know where sleept. The did however not sit idle - They created the Moon and the Sun! A great blow to Morgoth, who allways used the darkness as one of his prime vapons of fear.
