The most contradictory description in The Silmarillion is that the Silmaril burns mortals. It seems correct that they burn sinners, excluding inevitable losses resulting from self-defense or strikes. Conversely, what if we imagined that the primary author of The Silmarillion was a Númenórean filled with misanthropy compiling the history of the Elves? It was as if waves crashed in behind the historian who grumbled that all humans are sinners.

Sauron’s bitter taste was to destroy his opponents using their virtues. Not to mention the matter of Celebrimbor, surrendering to Númenor was, when you think about it, an act that drove good people into a corner. They could not kill a surrendered enemy, nor could they release Sauron. Taking Sauron with him was indeed the most responsible course of action at the time.

and in the end.....

I found it kind of funny seeing this collaboration because it was so seriously the Lord of the Rings collaboration. To think it was inspired by the rings made by Celebrimbor and the ring made by Sauron—it really isn't a collaboration inspired by The Fellowship of the Ring, but by The Lord of the Rings…

While it is described that Galadriel and Gilgalad drove Annatar out, Sauron was a proven manipulator. He may have initially sought them out, but because he did not like them, he may have manipulated them into rejecting him. Or perhaps he went to them intending to be rejected in the first place. In fact, Sauron had just recently gained independence at that time. He may have hated having someone above him again now that he has finally become free, and he may have been tired of fighting for dominance even if they are an equal partner rather than a master. Gilgalad, the King(According to some fan theories, ambitious enough to usurp), and Galadriel, who ran away to become Queen... they are certainly not the kind of allies he would like.

And in his eyes, as evidenced by the description of the three rings, a rare leader who will not seek absolute domination is seen.

I happened to see a post saying that since Maedros is a prince and his brothers are also princes, he doesn't really need to do much parenting and there are plenty of people to outsource it to. That is likely true in most cases. However, I have also seen the exact opposite in history. There were often instances in history where royalty had no choice but to care for royalty…

It is said that a certain crown prince—born into a rare status with great legitimacy within that dynasty—had such a difficult personality that he hated having his hair combed; consequently, the servants were absolutely forbidden from laying a hand on him. Whether he liked it or not, the only ones who could force him to do anything were his mother and grandmother, so in the end, they had to personally attend to him, doing tasks that servants usually do, such as combing his hair and dressing him. She must have been really busy as the Queen, so to think she had to do it herself… just how bad-tempered must that Crown Prince have been……

Well, I suppose Maglor wasn't that picky. But below him are Celeborn, Caranthir, and Curufin… It is highly likely they are the Princes of Nightmares. in Aman, who could stop them?…… For Nerdanel, Fëanor, and Maglor to achieve great deeds, Maedros, who doesn't need to do any creative work, might have had to make some sacrifices…….

Well, Maedros probably didn't need to do the housework. However, he likely had to take on the role of a middle manager overseeing his younger brothers in that large household. There's no way servants could have prevented those 3C from causing trouble, is there?

A long time ago, I read something that said we humans look like elves to dogs. If you apply that to Finrod… the Edain looked like puppies to Finrod. That can explain so much…

Fëanáro is The amilessë apacenyë.

Míriel chose death. The reason was simple. The moment she gave birth to her son, Míriel knew his name and future, as elven mothers often do, and she would never see him die before her. The promises of the Valar were scattered to ashes, and Míriel gave her son's name to die by fire and fell asleep. Should she tell Finwë this? She decided not to. She hadn't seen the details of her son's fiery death, but since he wore the crown, she knew Finwë would not see him die. Valinor, what promised everything, had promised only death to Míriel's family, and if that were the case, she could not force Míriel to see them die.

P.S.

Indis had no choice but to name his eldest son that way. He could vividly imagine what Feanor would think, but this too was vivid. Seeing that, perhaps Indis and Finwë were destined for something?

Many people are confused and wonder if it is contradictory that Elwing chose immortality while choosing Lúthien. However, all we've seen of Elwing in the story (though there aren't many) is as a true Sindar royal. Who is Elwing's source of Sindar royal blood? Lúthien. In fact, I think it's closer to choosing kingship than immortality.

So, isn't the book "The Hobbit" itself the Hobbit of Legendarium?

The Hobbit, a single sentence that even Tolkien himself didn't consciously conceive, became a beloved fairy tale. Isn't that the nature of fairy tales? It seems cute and insignificant, but it's actually a deeply important story. It's a story of stories. That's why it captivated him and his many readers, becoming a symbol of the lovable wonders hidden throughout the middle-earth(and our world), small and insignificant as they may be. It personifies the things we must protect from Sauron, and in itself, it becomes his downfall, a symbol of the core themes of the Legendarium universe. The author really thought and talked without any intention and thought it was nothing special, but after receiving everyone's attention and continuing to look back, he eventually found that it was the key to the conclusion of his life's work that he would not have been able to find if he had thought about it intentionally.

After a delightful teatime with Bilbo and Frodo, filled with delightful stories, Celebrimbor rose to do the dishes. Elrond smoothly dissuaded the hobbits, distracting them with his garden before following suit. As expected, Elrond was more enthusiastic about household chores like the dishes than Galadriel. According to Elrond, this is what happens when you grow up as a refugee, raised by one with a prosthetic limb and one who distract himself with musical instruments.

"I couldn't send the hobbits on such a dangerous mission," Celebrimbor said.

"You're the type who needs to do everything yourself."

"And that's why you refused to take the oath. You've always understood that nothing is absolute, that the world is unpredictable and uncontrollable, that what seems small can hide great power, and that what seems grand can be empty."

"If you're going to indulge in self-loathing again…" "I miss Middle-earth so much. It's a shame. I regret dying without knowing about that wonderful race. There must have been more like it hidden in every corner there. That's why we chose it in the first place…" "I understand your regret. But haven't you seen many other wonders?" "The ring was a mistake."

Before Elrond could ask again, Celebrimbor continued quickly. "It's not self-loathing. Don't do it. Yeah. I don't think it's wrong to want to improve, but… I should have thought more carefully about why I chose Middle-earth in the first place. I should have enjoyed it more. There was no need to fix it. I should have remembered that it was a place where wonders and small joys were hidden, even more so because they were beyond our reach. He became what he was, after all… but if we had remembered that more, and kept our focus on accepting and enjoying Middle-earth as it was, at least we wouldn't have fueled his fire…"

Elrond spoke bluntly, snatching the bowl from Celebrimbor's slowing hands and finishing cleaning it. "What he did was his own fault."

"When he first arrived… Galadriel rejected him because he wasn't innocent, Gil-galad rejected him because he was ambitious, and you rejected him because you were wary of his absolute desires." "We told him to go to you. Turning down a Maia would be a terrible thing, so we left it to you, saying there was a better place for him. We were cowards, and you were kind and brave."

With that, Elrond glared at Celebrimbor. Celebrimbor, flinching, swallowed the words that had risen to his throat, deciding to regret his choice another day. "I don't think I was wrong in what I saw at first. He truly wanted to heal the world. He wanted to fix it. He desperately wanted to help it become better. And I truly believe our actions were right, at first. Middle-earth was broken and wounded. Up to that point, he and we were right. But after that… there was no need to fix it. It would have been better to just accept it as it was and enjoy it. No, we started to do that, but he couldn't. The Ainur are purer and more devoted than we are. They don't change as easily as we do. He still tried to heal and give gifts, but Middle-earth and we were already healed, leaving him behind. What does a doctor do when a patient is cured?"

Elrond said wryly. "Let's enjoy our vacation."

Celebrimbor chuckled. "Yes! We should have. But it was useless…"

"As the bearer of Vilya, I won't hear you say your Three Rings were a harbinger of evil, a useless act."

From the garden, the hobbits murmured with surprise and laughter. Celebrimbor shook his head. "It's nothing compared to that. They didn't need it, after all."

"It helped protect them."

Knowing that their paths would remain parallel forever, Celebrimbor finished washing the dishes and planned to end the conversation there. But his hands were empty, and the dishes had already been cleared away. Celebrimbor looked away, embarrassed, as Elrond dragged him out into the garden. He wondered what the hobbits were admiring, and it would help him forget this conversation.

Gil-galad son of who and Cirdan's Conversation When Receiving the Twins

Cirdan gazed anxiously at the horizon and then spoke to his king. The king was always relaxed. If it weren't for his beard, you might think he was older than Cirdan.

Be warned. Don't expect anything good from them. You're misunderstanding. I hold them in high esteem, even respect them. There is no denying that they were strong and strong-willed. To cling to such a terrible oath and ultimately achieve even a fraction of it is beyond the reach of ordinary strong one. Blindly guided by it would normally lead to ruin, but despite all the wear and tear, they guided it, not be led. If we consider it solely as a measure of strength, beyond good and evil, it's true that they demonstrated the limits of our ability to reach. At the same time, they long ago abandoned good and evil, retaining only their oath. It's hard to believe they would have raised those children well.

The king smiled at Cirdan's earnest advice, shook his head, and said lightly.

Then why did they raise the twins in the first place? Elwing jumped down. There was no benefit. Hostages, prisoners? With whom? They wanted nothing from anyone without a Silmaril.

……

I know them. That's why We prepared only for Galadriel's wrath at the coronation. We didn't prepare to the Fëanorions, who would rush at them in anger at them for daring to claim the crown of House Finwë. Because I know They won't be interested. I know better than you how powerful they were. Even the Oath—no, I know how strong and desperate those villains were, who rode on the backs of that monster, so as not to let that Oath steal who they were. Even the Oath couldn't drain their love for those they loved. They were people who were divided only by death, who would turn the world against each other, even the Valar. Even the Oath couldn't drain them of who they were. They'll probably be around longer than you think, and that's even more terrifying. So I worry about boys' condition too. But I don't think they would have bullied or abused the kids. We'll have to see for sure.

In fact, we don't even know Ambarussa's exact age. Given the oaths they took, it's clear they were adults at the time. The question is how long ago they became adults. While pondering this question, it occurred to me that Fëanor, despite being Fëanor, had relatively few accidents, and those accidents were concentrated in his later years. Of course, since he had accidents, they must have been his final years. However, given his temper, Fëanor lived a life with fewer accidents. How could that be possible? What does this have to do with Ambarussa's age? Fëanor, despite his temper and energy, only caused accidents in his later years, when his children were clearly grown, and he died as a result. Conversely, while he was still alive, he must have focused his energy and concentration on other things than accidents. He had seven sons, and by the end of his life, when he was seriously involved in his troubles, they were all adults. Now, let's look at the passage from when Fëanor created the Silmarils. It's quite significant.

The Silmarillion's Narrator: Fëanor must have foreseen something (ignoring the fact that, unlike Finarfin, he's not half-Vanyar and has never shown any foresight in his life. In other words, the narrator has no idea why Fëanor suddenly did something like this)! Fëanor (after Ambarusa has grown up and gone hunting, he sits alone at the table in the darkened house, munching on cereal and watching a TV drama with total inability to concentrate. He's the epitome of empty nest syndrome): …..This can't be happening. I really have to do something. Something I'll give my all to. Otherwise, I'll be the first elf to die in Aman. I have to do something, and the more impossible the better!

………Yes. I believe Ambarussa were born around YT 1349.

Since there is no information about how old Celebrimbor was, we have to imagine, guess, and piece together the events of The Silmarillion. He was clearly too young to take the Oath of Fëanor, so that sets an upper limit. A lower limit is also somewhat fixed. By the time Finrod died, he was at least a pre-adult or a teenager. Beyond that, nothing is certain. Did he participate in the first kinslaying? We don't know. He was destroyed, but not by Mandos's curse, and since his destruction occurred after Mandos' curse was lifted, we don't know whether he escaped by luck or at least didn't participate in the kinslaying. But now that I think about it, it's strange that Maedhros complied with his father's actions, boarding a ship and leaving his other kin—Fingon in particular—although he opposed them. Amrod....Umbarto was too. Why didn't he have simply not followed his father in the first place? Of course, Feanor is a difficult man to overcome. And provoking his father's paranoia might have only made him more angry, so he might have complied for now. He might have also thought that once they boarded the ship and arrived in Middle-earth, their father would relent, knowing they wouldn't be abandoned. In that sense, wasn't Celebrimbor just a baby at the time? Crossing Helcaraxë with a baby was absolutely impossible, and while Maedhros and the others had absolutely no intention of abandoning them, they likely didn't want to risk anything, especially given the rift among the Noldor. Since they had fewer boats, only some would have to cross first, so they might have thought it was right for their group, with the baby, to do so first. At the same time, they might have silently complied, hoping that once the danger that so alarmed their father—that is, once they no longer had to cross the ice with a baby—things would be better. So when they thought the danger was over and it was time to extend the hand of reconciliation, Fëanor threw down the torch.
