to far back to remember, maybe you should start a new topic about the Istari, just so if Nurv comes by she doesn't start yelling at us for being off topic.

So much snow my hands are freezing.
![]() ![]() ![]() That being said, this really needs to be split into a new thread. The last 20-30 posts, probably. ![]() About Aulë and his Maiar: what interested me about Aulë was the part in the Silm where it is said: "Melkor was jealous of him, for Aulë was most like himself in thought and in powers..." I think that sheds some light on the fact that Maiar who went bad, specifically Saruman and Sauron, were originally of his following. Attalus definitely has a point in saying that pride is the worst of sins (and not just from a Christian standpoint ![]() Speaking of which, the Noldor themselves were most loved by Aulë too... Coincidence? ![]()

![]() I was saying that I thought maybe some of it had to do with how much the creator of objects had invested themself in their creation. Because with Sauron, Feanor, and I believe, Saruman, they each had too much pride in their powers as creators of things. Interesting to note that elven women put much of their spirit into their children, and Feanor's mother was so diminished with his birth. Maybe that was a forewarning? |

a forewarning that Feanor would be a vain, crazy Elven-smith, who decided to ride into the midst of a whole company of Balrogs, without even one measly bodyguard?? yeah, we shoulda known
