Nazgul Trees or Caves?????

Around the world (the middle earth world) there are many folk.
There are cave people, and tree people.
Which are you? A dwarf person or an Elf person?
Mortal men? You have no place here. Leave.

So, Trees or Caves?
Wine, or beer...this could go on for a long, long,long,long,long...you get the idea.

Personally im an elf person. However, i am sitting next to a cave person... and very strange she is.

What are you?

Hi there you know who I am. I was the crazy person sat next to you. I am the cave person. Don't dis the caves. You know I think Elves are not alive because they cannot die therefore they cannot live. That means where they exist is also not alive. As trees are either dead or alive that means they are dead. The dwarves are alive the mountains and caves are alive and all else is dead. Thank you for listening to my insane ramblings

Like what?

You actually think i would say anything pointfull?

Elves are not dead! That's just mean.

To make things more interesting i could say do you like elves with or without chocolate paste?

(Or in the case of the freak cave people, dwarves.)

Well, Legolas was an Elf, and Elves were the fairest of all earthly creatures. Not just in beauty, but in complexion as well.

Yes, but normal tree liking elves don't talk about cave ones.
Legolas doesn't like caves.
Maybe Gimli has a sunbed in his cave... its possible.

I haven't forgotten. Elves did not dwell in caves or underground by choice. They prefered the open lands and fields of green. Most cave dwelling Elves, especially in the First Age dwelt in these places for protection, not out of choice.

Definitely trees - I'm such an Ent/Elf. You never know what's hidden in the corners in caves.

I'll go Fangorn's route. A cave or fortress of some kind surrounded and sheltered by trees.

A cave of course! When under a siege from a great army its easier to defend a cave than it is a Forest. Besides Caves are incredible so many structuces to see and paths to explore. Ahh to be a Dwarf in Khazad-dum(Before the awakening of the Balrog naturally)

I like caves.

I like big cities carved inside a mountain. With lots of tunnels to explore. And underground lakes with glowing fishes. OOOOhhh! So pretty! =)

I am totally a tree person. I've always loved trees--and climbing them! I am such an elf--I also love the sea, and have always wanted to sail, especially since I went sailing on a tall ship for two days. . .that was fun! I'm kind of an all-around outdoors person, really. But caves are okay for visiting, once and a while. I wouldn't want to live in one, or stay there for a long time, but once in a while they can be alright, especially if a friend wants me to see them

Tree Person. I love the trees. A couple of my favorite memories are going to Kuna Cave with my dad, but I would hate to live in a cave.
