The Half-Elven Foundation-VII

[Ivriniel]

Hi there Reader,

You are welcome to post here, on absolutely any "Half-Elven" topic, for a specific cross-integration of "Elfy-by-Half" discussion, with some ideas as follows:

• Lifespan matters
• Pereldar Not Commonly Named
• Earendil and Pre-Post Valinorean Decrees
• Half-Elven Blood Lines (e.g. Imrahil)
• About Silmarien (personal favourite)
• About Gilmith, Ivriniel, Elladan, Elrohir, Elros, Elrond, the Heirs of Elros (all), and anyone I've missed
• Half-Elven Mythology in General & External to Tolkien as a 'juxtapositioning' idea

This thread, though, has three further variations making it a 'beyond just a discussion' focus.

1. I'm coming and going here, as I'm wading through the Thread Histories of this Forum, to post Summary URL data, on prior Half-Elfy matters.
2. It's also for interacting with regular posters, for on-topic emphasis, but with the addendum permitting some social exchange. E.g.

[PS]Hi there. Just back after two weeks, because Xmas rush. I'll be back on and off over the coming days to update the thread. Hope everyone's been well.

Please enjoy coming and going here from time to time, for this warmer 'hello' thingy[/PS]

3. The thread is -- unashamedly -- going to have a far higher number of Thread-Keeper Posts (at times, or at most times) than other posters' posts. There is to be a housekeeping reason for this, which will be about what I unearth in interesting posters' long-gone materials, that I hope to use to inspire participation. I may even go as far as PM'ing some long-lost people in hopes to have them return to keep us company.

As, such, it is also a 'meet n greet' Thread, and think of it as a 'Master of Ceremonies' kind of thread (visualise a wedding, here), and this is also what keeps the thread visible on the First Page of this Forum. I don't want a sticky. It's better to do it this way, as I've found it is more fun!

Also, please expect another or variation on this Thread, termed 'The Tale of the Years' which, like this thread, is really a 'meta-thread'. One can come to any meta-thread to grab really interesting valid ideas for a current thread of *any* kind, and in fact, use a meta-thread to ***invigorate*** any discussion with cross-linked URL.

Kind Regards
Stav

What do we mean by 'Half?' Half As Powerful, by Half, or Half as Powerful Beyond By Half?

1. Maia as 'Half-or-Part Valar, but Half Again more Powerful than Elf and Half Elf'

[Ivriniel]

Prince Imrahil has some measure of Elven Blood.

This invites questions about whether or not The Line of the Prince's of Dol Amroth were every gifted with the Choice of the Peredhil.

Dol Amroth was south of Edhellond. There was a Elvish port at there, where Elves departed into the West, many of whom left from there during the War of Elves and Sauron SA. Galadriel spent some time there. It's an interesting part of the world. It seem's there was more than one union of Elves and Men there given how Elfy Imrahil was.

Does anyone know anything more about this?

[William Cloud Hicklin]

I think this was addressed in that thread: the Choice was given to Earendil, Elwing and their descendants, only.

Manwë gave judgement, and he said: 'In this matter the power of doom is given to me. The peril that he ventured for love of the Two Kindreds shall not fall upon Eärendil, nor shall it fall upon Elwing his wife, who entered into peril for love of him; but they shall not walk again ever among Elves or Men in the Outer Lands. And this is my decree concerning them: to Eärendil and to Elwing, and to their sons, shall be given leave each to choose freely to which kindred their fates shall be joined, and under which kindred they shall be judged.'
