^ yes, good point, Inziladun. I never realized that. I always thought it was Bilbo's lack of possession of the One that made him age rapidly, or I might've misread that Biblbo already aged greatly in Rivendell the first time Frodo and comapny visited. Then maybe this is why the Three were far more powerful than the sixteen. Can we also speculate that if mortal people were to dwell in the realms of Rivendell or Lorien (with Vilya and Nenya in effect), said people will turn eventually into gollum-like creatures and feel stretched within themselves, or is it a "pleasant" experience considering the differing nature of the One (evil) and the Three (good)?
