Do you all think that elves detest killing?

Like they are supossed to be creatures of light and purity,incapable of conceiving evil and yet very attached to their words and thoughts.

So when they kill,be it in self defense or to fulfill what they consider fair and necessary. Do you think that the act hurts them inside? Even with orcs or animals,humans,dwarves,or other elves,any form of life.

Anyway. The Valar are not all that to be honest. The way that they just let Melkor run around and sow discontent in Valinor. The way that they were light on him harassing Faenor on Formenos... Their inaction. Especially Manwe. It's the same feeling that you can't report a co-worker despite being so problematic cause he's family. Nothing will be done. And when Earendil finally found this Paradise, they were in some sort of celebration while the people on Beleriand are dying.

Faenor's speech in Morgoth's Ring:

‘Why, O my people, why should we longer serve these jealous gods, who cannot keep us, nor their own realm even, secure from their Enemy?

And though he be now their foe, are not they and he of one kin?

Vengeance calls me hence,

But even were it otherwise, I would not dwell longer in the same land with the kin of my father’s slayer and the thief of my treasure.

Yet I am not the only valiant in this valiant people. And have ye not all lost your king?

And what else have ye not lost, cooped here in a narrow land between the jealous mountains and the harvestless Sea?

Here once was light, that the Valar begrudged to Middle-earth, but now dark levels all.

Shall we mourn here deedless for ever, a shadow-folk, mist-haunting, dropping vain tears in the salt thankless Sea?

Or shall we go home? In Cuiviénen sweet ran the waters under unclouded stars, and wide lands lay about where a free folk might walk.

There they lie still and await us who in our folly forsook them.

Come away! Let the cowards keep this city.

But by the blood of Finwë! unless I dote, if the cowards only remain, then grass will grow in the streets. Nay, rot, mildew, and toadstool.’ ...

‘Fair shall the end be, though long and hard shall be the road!

Say farewell to bondage! But say farewell also to ease!

Say farewell to the weak!

Say farewell to your treasures — more still shall we make!

Journey light. But bring with you your swords!

For we will go further than Tauros, endure longer than Tulkas: we will never turn back from pursuit.

After Morgoth to the ends of the Earth! War shall he have and hatred undying.

But when we have conquered and have regained the Silmarils that he stole, then behold! We, we alone, shall be the lords of the unsullied Light, and masters of the bliss and the beauty of Arda!

Quietly it crept in new horror

Insanity reigned

And spilled the first blood

Aaaand Irimë is done as well ^^
