??? If sources are to be found Mith, they will be. We are simply debating over Tolkien's view, wondering if it is a mistake, an ill placed word, or actually correct. Since Luthien and Arwem took the same path, why are the outcomes different? [[User:Arya|Arya]]

Tolkien Gateway > Forums > Eldarion the Half-elven?


Shouldn't Eldarion be considered Half-elven? Even if Arwen chose the fate of the mortals before giving birth to Eldarion, so did Lúthien too. Should Dior then be considered a Man? Woolly Mammoth 12:27, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

I'm going with Eldarion being half-elven. Arwen's fate is to be a mortal, yes, but it doesn't mean she stops being an elf.
If every elf who fell for a human became mortal, Tolkien would have never mentioned half-elfs. Arya
