He'd probably fuss at you for not capitalizing his name, and putting the little double-dots above the 'e'. You know the size of his ego.

I don't think it's that much pages of drool, more like so many pages consisting of conversations that go like this:"He's mine! I saw him first!" and "No! Mine! You can have that one instead!" while everyone tries to eliminate the competition.

Well, drool or not, if I was a woman, I would be all over Beleg. He is so sexy.

Can't see Feanor suffering from that problem.

Fall asleep? Be at rest? No-no, but he would be far too busy with his own jewels to fiddle with yours.

Nay, Beleg is the Elf. Great woodsman and hunter, strong and best skilled with his weapon.

Quite right. Where as Feänor and Finrod were kicked out of Valinor, Tuor was allowed in!

Quote:
In those days Tuor felt old age creep upon him, and ever a longing for the deeps of the sea grew stronger in his heart. therefore he built a great ship, and he named it Eärramé, which is Sea-Wing; and with Idril Celebrindal he set sail into the sunset and the West, and came no more into any tale or song. But in after days it was sung that Tuor alone of Mortal Men was numbered among the elder race, and was joined with the Noldor, whom he loved; and his fate is sundered from the fate of Men.

Bah, what a goody-two-shoes. Who wants to be there anyway? Place is overrated, with all those elves nancing around.

Hey, my mind was only down there because it was dragged down there.

I think it's close between Fingolfin and Beren. Fingolfin because he's my current favorite elf king, and Beren because he's the only man in the Silmarillion to marry the most beautiful elf in Middle Earth and beyond.

I like Beleg, too, Artanis - the strong, mysterious type, and what a good pal to Turin.

I'm reading thru The Lay of Leithian, and got to the part where Finrod and Beren were before Thu - I had to read CRT's little commentary before I realized that the false names they gave to Thu were their own names backwards! (i.e., Nereb and Dungalef)! Did you guys realize that?

Let's see - Dornif, Ronaef, Geleb, Rout, ...
