uh oh, i just re-read my last post and it did sound rather like i was implying that legolas' mother was just some Wood-elf as part of a harem...or something else....oh no! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] that's REALLY not what i meant! i mean, if thats what they do i really have no problem with it i guess, but somehow i didnt get the impression of these elves being polygamous...i meant annonymous as in she never got mentioned by name by tolkien...that's all. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] I think there is probably not much more to be said on this topic, but thanks to everybody for their imput!
