@nazokiyoubinbou @RickiTarr the elves in the #Silmarillon do, though. #tolkien
I have a confession. I am not a real #Tolkien fan; I read the #Silmarillon as an audiobook.

I'm thinking about having my pantheon be about that, sort of how in the #Silmarillon the original sin was "a talented prick made the coolest thing, but decided no one else deserved to work with them and got obsessed with protecting their intellectual property".

Melkor got pissed that he had to compromise his vision with the other Valar when making Arda, Feanor got waay too proud of his Silmarils, Sauron got litigious about his ring-lore IP, and so on. It's a really good message for a #ttrpg

Just a few days until #Oxonmoot... Anyone on here going?

Out of the deeps of Eä she came to the aid of Manwë; for Melkor she knew from before the making of the Music & rejected him, & he hated her, & feared her more than all others whom Eru made.

Elves hold Varda most in reverence & love. Elbereth they name her & they call upon her name out of the shadows of Middle-earth, and uplift it in song at the rising of the stars.
