Re: A proposed brief TOY

Not so brief. <img src=smile.gif ALT=""> Hard work pays off. I need to look at it in depth but it appears faithful to JRRT's MT/Sil. conceptions. Suggestion, most who have not read HoME (more than 95% of JRRT afficianados?) will not recognize the quenya names of the sons of Feanor, his half-brothers and their children. Inserting sindarin names would help the readability.

--Mithadan--
"The Silmarils with living light
were kindled clear, and waxing bright
shone like stars that in the North
above the reek of earth leap forth." </p>

Re: A proposed brief TOY

Sounds good, this is sticking mostly to HoME i presume. To Mithadan, I have only read I, II, and some of The Lost Road, and I undertand what Saulotus is tryng to say.

Re: A proposed brief TOY

I suppose the Sindarin would help; yeah.
It was a simple cut and paste job from work I had done previously, and are my private copies.

Since this is not exactly a direct quotation situation concerning text, but a hand-made brief compilation, I felt that this at least could be submitted here without much problem.

And yes; it is brief, as the actual TOY contains much more detailed information. <img src=wink.gif ALT="">

Please; hack away at it. That's what it was put here for, either to demolish it, or to build upon.

Re: A proposed brief TOY

I second he vote for sindarin [ maybe in parenthesis] names for the noldor [although it was good mental exercise to do the conversion myself.

Other than that I am qualified only to be silent as it raises issues I have not pondered on at all [except for the brief exchange awhile ago on the downs.

For Shame!!!

Ok; while you're pondering, I'll add another item.
It's also related to an old trivia question I proposed:
Consider this; why did &gt;&gt;Finwe&lt;&lt; (and Feanor, Fingolfin AND Finarfin) use a SUN as the heraldric device when this object did not exist until AFTER Finwe's death according to the old mythology, without using some type of floundering creative and hypothetical explanation instead of the realization that they existed BEFORE the trees died, which matches the latter text ideas. We could also examine Elwe's use of the MOON as his, but that's another story.

See Pictures by Tolkien for the illustrations.

Is it one of those things that makes you go hmmmmm?

Sorry, but as long as you're thinking...

Thirsty for BD after long absence, and having but a brief time of sojourn to spend, I made a quick ride over the barrows and vaults of this haunted place. Now see what the glittering jewel did I brought up from the forgotten dust! Long live the people of misterious names, though them be away from us...

Or to put it straight, I think the piece of hard work placed here is very much worth observing and incorporating for those who work on it still

Maye it be of help (as I'm sure it will)
