ELF questions answered

there have been a few threads ( some started by me) concerning the "power" of elves


i think everyone agrees that elves are more beautiful,immortal amd immune to sickness and disease, nd more resistant to weather extremes


on pg 121 to PARAPHRASE

the moriquendi and men were equal in stature and strength

but the morquendi were greater in wisdom, skill and beauty


AND the calaquendi were greater than the morquendi in these departments than the morquendi were to men

only the sindar of doriath tutored by melian come close to the calaquendi



on 137

noldor ( i finally got it right inoldonil) were greater of mind and body and were greater warriors and sages
than the morquendi


but i'm on ch 15 so we will see what happens as i read more

Does anyone know what her alias Dernhelm means?

She was kown as dernhelm because of her exclaimation when she realized that the rider's headgear was heavy and obscured her sight.

'Dern Helm"
