He's even got ents with mossy beards and leafy, branchy stuff on their heads.

I wonder what Edith's hair was like, especially while she was dancing in the wood. Anybody know?

Oh now pyrotechnic Galadriel of the movies makes so much more sense.

drigel has just left Hobbiton.
lather, rinse, repeat

Nice ideas. Something definately was there for the author, wasnt it? But perhaps its the only real physical sense we really get when we feel fairy: the glimpse of a soft blending of silver and gold as it filters through nature. delightfull

Its art imitating life in its highest sense. The wonders Feanor created captured light, back when light was Light. It all repeats itself over time, albeit to a lesser and lesser extent. But it's all congruent with the desire of the elves to capture, or recapture an icon, or an idea, or a feeling that they dont want time to ravage.
