broke: Nerdanel had a normal Elven mother and Mahtan's wife was just amongst the countless other women jirt never bothered to name
woke: Mahtan was a Pygmalion type and sculpted Nerdanel out of metal before Aulë granted her life Pinocchio style
#do you see the vision#it ties into Nerdanel being an unbelievably skillful sculptor#and there's canon precedent of Aulë giving life to sculptures. y'know. the Dwarves#I'm fully aware that when creating the Dwarves canonically Aulë “defied Illuvátar's plan” or whatever#and technically it was Ilúvatar who gave them life in the end.#but I simply think that's stupid. I think how jirt treated the Dwarves as a whole is stupid. so I'm ignoring it#let me play in my space#my post#text post#silmarillion#the silmarillion#silm#silm fandom#lotr#aulë#the valar#mahtan#nerdanel#tolkien#tolkien legendarium
