The question tells it all. It actually came out from the discussion about Thingol's challenege to Beren, sending him on the quest for the Silmarilli. So.... wht do you think? Would he ever succeed in his quest without the help of Luthien?

The Silmarillion, Chapter 19: Of Beren and Luthien Another topic from the Debate Tournament. Enjoy:)

From The Silmarillion: Of Beren and Lúthien Was it ok for Beren and Lúthien to involve other people in their quest for a seemingly selfish reason? Another topic from the Debate Tournament.

I have wondered if Beren and Lúthien’s grave was intact in the Third Age. It isn’t certain where their final resting place was: The Silmarillion: I guess ‘afterwards’ means that the Eldar called the country the Land of the Dead that Live while they knew that Beren and Lúthien were living...

A simple question, but one that has been puzzling me for a while. Why was Tuor, a mortal man, granted a place amongst the Eldar...? Beren's fate was rather different. Yet both were fathers of Half-elven bloodlines and both were mighty in deed. So why was Tuor the exception? Why was...

Gamil Zirak made this comment arguing against Aragorn and Arwen being a romantic couple... Does anyone have any agreements or disagreemens with this terrible, evil statement against my favorite couple... ;)

I need help on this subject here. Someone in another thread metioned that Beren was a skinchanger. I thought not, and another member came up with this part of the Sil: page 211 in my copy and in Curufinwe's, who pointed it out to me: (typing errors on my account) >>>>By the counsel of Huan...
