Plus there's also Thingol, so that's a bonus.

You use my quote and then you mis-spell my name?!
Shame on you, Afro-Elf! To much local beer?

*laughs* True, but that wasn't nearly as good a part as when Finrod entered the Tol-in-Ngaurhoth

Sorry guys, I gotta go with Fingolfin's duel at the gate, and Hurin fighting to the end at Serech.

Inoldonil and I are kidding. It kinda goes back to an old debate, I don't know if I could name all of my favorite parts, there are so many.

Finrod entering Tol-in-Ngaurhoth sadder than Thingol and the NauglamÃ*r? Ah, I guess you're right. After all, he brought Beren with him. As Wayfarer says: ]: )
As for actual favourite parts, there are two that I have noticed very much move me. One of them is one of yours, Bacchus, 'Day shall come again!'. The other is Aulë's words to God before he prepares to destroy his most cherished makings. I read it aloud to myself once, it's like one of those bad dreams where the saddest thing possible happens and you're hit with what you know to be True. [The difference being with a nightmare you wake up and realize it was indeed True (Real), but only as a dream, naturally {dreams after all being part of the Reality we live in}. With the Silmarillion passage, the deepest feeling of sorrow is turned to joy.]
