tinewelt has just left Hobbiton.

just personal opinion, but I believe that the main reason that there has never been a union between a male elf and a Woman is because of the "self-image" factor of the elves. If you notice, in all 3 of the unions, The elven "father" is the primary obstacle and protester of the union. They of course feel that elf maidens and princesses are on a higher level of signifigance and importance. Vise versa, they would never allows themselves to be seen as less kingly or as equal to the Atani. I guess it's kind of like a "jet" marrying a "shark". lol [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
