Maybe I'm pushing interpretation of canonical works to the limit in this article! But it shouldn't be worse than the "Half-trolls", or similar legendary creatures. ;-) --Morgan 18:22, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
Ettin
It would be great if we could verify the statement on wikipedia that Ettin historically/traditionally are described as two-headed monsters (see List of Narnian Creatures at Wikipedia (accessed 15 November 2010)). I will keep it in the background of my head (the reading head, not the other one...) when reading traditional fairy-tales , to see what comes up.--Morgan 18:51, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
