Matosi, jog Jenny Dolfen skaitė... Tik gal vos vos "pop" atspalvis jaučiasi. Beje, man kažkodėl rodosi, jog man patiktų, jei ji iliustruotų Amberą. Feanoro nupiešto taip, kad įtiktų, vis dar nemačiau
O su broliukais yra viena bėda - pirminiame šaltinyje nėra nurodyta, kuris kada gimė, tad tuo klausimu visi gali turėti įvairias nuomones... Norintiems vaidinti - ne kas, nebent visiems susitart reik.
Chmiel (
kaip ją tart - su ch ar dar kaip nors? Rodos, ji iš Lenkijos), beje, irgi atrodo skaičiusi. Jei sudėliosim, kiek tai įmanoma, kurio nors veikėjo gyvenimą vaizduojančius piešinius iš eilės - įspūdis tikrai stiprus, matosi, kaip jis keitėsi, kuo tapo. Tarkim:
http://tolkien.com.pl/kasiopea/ang/stro ... edhros.htm - tik kur jis turėtų būti: negi gale?...
Taisa: oho, Jenny, rodos, pagauna net tai, kas parašyta Kristoferio komentaruose Morgoth's Ring.
One might wonder also how it should be that even in Aman none of the Eldar were drowned in the sea or missed their footing in the mountains and fell from a great height.

O jei JRRT knygų iliustracijos būtų paveikslai, nepiešti joms iliustruoti?... Dedikuojama CHARLES RIDOUX

...and they saw a new World made visible before them, and it was globed amid the Void, and it was sustained therein, but was not of it.
...as who should take the whole field of Arda for the foundation of a pillar and so raise it until the cone of its summit were more bitter than a needle...
Therefore I say: Eä!
...Manwë is dearest to Ilúvatar and understands most clearly his purposes. He was appointed to be, in the fullness of time, the first of all Kings: lord of the realm of Arda and ruler of all that dwell therein.
...Varda, Lady of the Stars, who knows all the regions of Eä. Too great is her beauty to be declared in the words of Men or of Elves; for the light of Ilúvatar lives still in her face.
Their halls are above the everlasting snow, upon Oiolossë, the uttermost tower of Taniquetil, tallest of all the mountains upon Earth.
Ulmo is the Lord of Waters.
...Yavanna, the Giver of Fruits. She is the lover of all things that grow in the earth, and all their countless forms she holds in her mind, from the trees like towers in forests long ago to the moss upon stones or the small and secret things in the mould.
Nahar is the name of his horse, white in the sun, and shining silver at night.
...and there arose a multitude of growing things great and small, mosses and grasses and great ferns, and trees...
...Aulë at the prayer of Yavanna wrought two mighty lamps for the lighting of the Middle-earth which he had built amid the encircling seas.
...and upon the shores of the sea they raised the Pelóri, the Mountains of Aman, highest upon Earth.
But already the oldest living things had arisen: in the seas the great weeds, and on earth the shadow of great trees...
..and could tread the golden streets of Valmar and the crystal stairs of Tirion upon Túna, the green hill; but most of all they sailed in their swift ships on the waters of the Bay of Elvenhome, or walked in the waves upon the shore...
...Telperion bore at last upon a leafless bough one great flower of silver...
But soon the Sun was drawn down by the servants of Ulmo, and went then in haste under the Earth...
...and was lifted up even into the oceans of heaven.
...and with him was Elrond Half-elven, who chose, as was granted to him, to be numbered among the Eldar; but Elros his brother chose to abide with Men.
***
A land was made for the Edain to dwell in, neither part of Middle-earth nor of Valinor, for it was sundered from either by a wide sea...
And the tree grew and blossomed in the courts of the King in Armenelos...
...the power of Sauron daily increased...
...and there came a mighty wind and a tumult of the earth, and the sky reeled, and the hills slid, and Númenor went down into the sea...
...and waves like unto mountains moving with great caps of writhen snow bore them up amid the wreckage of the clouds...
***
'And then suddenly I beheld as a vision Arda Remade; and there the Eldar completed but not ended could abide in the present for ever, and there walk, maybe, with the Children of Men, their deliverers, and sing to them such songs as, even in the Bliss beyond bliss, should make the green valleys ring and the everlasting mountain-tops to throb like harps.'
***
...a dark shape, like a cloud and yet not a cloud, for it moved far more swiftly, came out of the blackness in the South, and sped towards the Company, blotting out all light as it approached. Soon it appeared as a great winged creature...
And now all those lands lie under the wave.

). Tačiau man patinka būtent dėl to kaip šauniai pavaizduojamas "superdupermegapolis".
