An interesting thought I had on reading your post, Silmarien. The stone king is very much like the exiled noldor in that way, they fought, they suffered, and yet they became all the more wise and beautiful because of it. Wisdom seems to do that, I've always loved that image of the wise, sad king. It makes me feel so, well, this may sound strange but it almost makes me feel fulfilled. Hm.

Thoughtfully,
Iarwain
