QUENTA SILMARILLION
The History of the Silmarils
+++++
Of Aule and Yavanna
+++++
Aule impatient.
Very impatient.
Decide make Dwarves.
Make in secret.
Because other Valar might not like it.
Iluvatar definitely would not like it.
Aule make in mountain the Seven Fathers of the Dwarves.
Reminds me of Snow White.
Ignore comment and move on.
Iluvatar find out.
Iluvatar not so very happy.
Aulu make big, long, pretty speech on why he made Dwarves.
Then cry as about to destroy Dwarves with hammer.
Iluvatar sympathize (of course).
Let Aule keep his Dwarves.
Aule say "Yay!" and be happy.
Iluvatar say Elves not like Dwarves and Dwarves not like Elves.
Aule not really care as still is happy.
Dwarves end up being strong.
Really really strong.
And live very very long.
Wow. I just rhymed.
Finally, Aule tell Yavanna about Dwarves.
Yavanna not so happy.
Because Dwaves could ruin pretty trees and pretty grass and pretty...yeah.
Yavanna talk to Manwe.
Ask if Children (all living things made by gods in general) will rule
Middle-earth.
Manwe talk for a bit.
Can be summed up as "Duh".
Yavanna make long speech about importance of trees and grass and all earthy
stuff.
Methinks Yavanna a bit obsessed.
Manwe listen to Yavanna.
Weird Vision and Song of Iluvatar "unfolds" in him.
Then Manwe talks to Yavanna and completely changes subject...seemingly.
Yavanna somehow happy.
Talks about trees growing really high so Eagles can live in them.
Pretty Eagles.
Manwe say no.
Says Eagles will house in mountains.
Only Aule's trees grow really high.
And there will be Shepherds of the Trees (aka Ents) to protect trees and
earthy stuff.
Maybe they not change subject after all.
Yavanna talk to Aule.
Basically say "Nyah nyah! Dwarves can live on Middle-earth, but if try
destroy trees, Ents will smoosh them like jelly. Mwahahaha!"
Aule blink and say "Ok..."
And continue on with his smith-work.
