Thank you so much Eezy!!
I'm starting over, do not mistake me for my brother - he has left. Eezy has convinced me to come back, give him some credit.
That's exactly what Arwen said - and she is much more appealing. It would be worth coming back to the light just to flip her over don't you think. I feel that Weaving was too old and ugly to be Elrond. I expected him to say, "welcome to Rivendell, Mr Anderson..."
sorry guys had to use caps i wont again :-( lol
yeah but anyway i read the silmarillion and damn it is so good and also the story at the start umm the valaquenta i think about the making of earth and the ainur man that is cool... btw naughty melkor and... feanor is sort of pretty evil for an elf

Hey, Cheney didnt see you for quite a while, missed you...
You read the Sil? Cool Melkor is the best and, yey, Feanor is a great character because he's just not the typical boring good elf... he's cool, he's different, and he causes loads of problems

I think it's part of the fascination of LoTR that there is no main character - it's a story about friendship and all of the characters are involved in this story. The central character was in the beginnging probably Frodo - and, though he's not always really present, Sauron. Later Aragorn practically got the same importance and gandalf as the "head" of the fellowship, too... but no real "main" character.
LOL ... Cuiviénen was later known as Mordor
It's indeed fascinating that the places where life first came from - Cuiviénen for elves and Hildórien for men - later became the home of the "evil" side, Mordor exactly covers a big part of the shapes of earlier Lake (or rather Sea) of Helcar on the shores of which Cuiviénen lay while the region near Hildórien must be where most of the Haradrim and maybe also the origins of the peoples of Rhûn come from.
When Thû the wizard (later Sauron) settled here in the southeast of the inhabited world, he must have spread his "evilness" over the country so that all the waters of Helcar dried - except for the (very salty) part that was later known as the Sea of Núrn, the only rests of the Tower of Helcar which Melkor built of ice in the beginning of light.
So Cuiviénen as it was before, a dark, silent place surrounded by huge forests, somewhere in the east one of the four first mountain-landscapes of the world (the Orocarni) and a peaceful lake / sea directly at hand, was surely destroyed by Sauron's might, the region was I think later a desert.

if you look at Mordor, it exactly covers the western half of earlier Helcar, but I just noticed that I got a little confused with the proportions as Helcar reached northward until the later Sea of Rhûn, so Cuiviénen actually doesnt belong to Mordor anymore, yet the landscape there seems to be similar the the "Wild Wood" has surely disappeared.
Melkor may be a naughty naughty Ainu but he's still cool (why does everybody always just like the "good"s... thats boring melkor is really great character)
"Then Morgoth came. For the last time
in those great wars he dared to climb
from subterranean throne profound,
the rumour of his feet a sound
of rumbling earthquake underground....
he IS cool
