I seem to recall a more detailed description somewhere in HoME of the death of Finwe (addressing his burnt body, etc.). Does anyone recall where I might find this?

were kindled clear, and waxing bright
shone like stars that in the North
above the reek of earth leap forth." </p>

Re: Finwe question

Book of Lost Tales 1, if I remember correctly, &quot;Of Melko and Darkening of Valinor&quot;. But not for sure <img src=smile.gif ALT="">

DoV/RotS

It is in X,later QS phase II [CRT's mode of describing it]
also known as p.292-295.

In X alone we have 3 versions of the DoV/RotS and I think though I could be amiss , that the phase @ LQS [from which this graphic depiction of Finwe's body comes is the final version.



Lindil is often found on posting on the Silmarillion Project at the Barrowowns and working on his own board Osanwe-Kenta[/i]- 'The dwindling Men of the West would often sit up late into the night, and awaken early before dawn- exchanging lore and wisdom such as they possessed , so that they should not fall back into the mean and low estate of those , who never knew or more sadly still, had indeed rebelled against the Light.' </p>
