no no no the presence of Ainur causes relativistic time dilation. the more of them are present in one place the more spacetime warps around them. time passes slowly in Lorien bc Galadriel is pretending to be Melian. it passes more slowly in Doriath than in the rest of Beleriand because of actual original-flavour Melian. SO much more slowly in Aman hence the 9 sun years = 1 Valinorean year. in the Void there is no concept of Time because Eru is there/or at least we reached some critical mass of Ainur and caused a singularity. DO YOU NOT SEE. THE VOID IS LIKE THE INSIDE OF A BLACK HOLE. I will be taking no further questions thank you.
