Latest comment: 15 April 2011 by Ederchil
I'm writing MA thesis on Tolkien's elves and stuck with the statement:
"Thranduil, father of Legolas and a Sindarin Elf, is described as having blond hair in The Hobbit (...)"
Where in The Hobbit? Could anyone provide a quotation? I've searched the book through and cannot find it... I'd be most greatful for any help, thanks.
- It's "Golden" in "Flies and Spiders":
The feast that they now saw was greater and more magnificent than before; and at the head of a long line of feasters sat a woodland king with a crown of leaves upon his golden hair, very much as Bombur had described the figure in his dream.
