Seeking asylum? Sorry we are racist... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Its painfully obvious that the Valar had much more love for the elves than they did for men and dwarves (with perhaps the exception of Aule).

When elves awoke they were summoned to live with the Valar, yet when men and dwarves awoke they had no word of welcome from them. Strange that I thought.

This led me onto another thought. What if Sauron had been successful in the War of the Ring and gained control of Middle-Earth. There would have almost definatly been refugees of elves, men and dwarves. The elves would then have just shipped themselves over the west sea and I would think that the men and dwarves would follow them (I know I would).

So what would the Valar have done in this situation, with men and dwarves seeking asylum in Valinor? Would they have sent them back, let them stay, killed them? Well okay the latter one is pretty unlikely but thats what happened when Ar Pharazon (sp?) set foot on the Undying Lands and it was also Sauron's fault that he did so.

Peace out!
