Man to Man in Araman!!!!!

[Falagar]

I don't believe Finarfin was a wimp, although I'm a big fan of Fëanor. What I've always held against Finarfin is that he is a boring character. A wise one perhaps, but a boring one nontheless.

And I believe Finarfin's choice was based more on grief than love (or cowardism):

But in that hour Finarfin forsook the march, and turned back, being filled with grief, and bitterness towards the house of Fëanor, because of the kinship with Olwë of Alqualondë; and many of his people went with him, retracing their steps in sorrow, until they beheld once more the fair beam of the Mindon upon Túna shining in th night, and so came at last to Valinor.
