: How could it be? All humans spirits leave Arda for ever. So how could Turin come back? Unlike the Elves, human fate isn't bound to Arda. You said he is raised to up to be one of the Ainur. But Why? Why him? I don't feel confortable about that idea. The idea that a human whose fate becomes Elvish, I can understand. But not that Turin's nature could change radically. : Anyway will it be the last battle? Melkor'spirit cannot be destroyed... I got this in an e-mail from this boards web-master Michael Martinez, he sent me exerpts from the sixth book of the History of Middle-earth, I can't recall the name, but it's the sixth book. Túrin is indeed special in relation to Morgoth. Morgoth managed to ruin Túrin, and all his families life. Through killing his first sister Lalaith, forcing his mother to send him to Doriath, slaying the elf in Doriath, slaying his friend Beleg, and marrying his own sister. Morgoth caused all this by spell, ruining his life, Túrin had more to avenge against Morgoth than anyone. Túrin is a very special case, Beren was let back to life only to please Lúthien, Túrin is coming back to save the world from Morgoth's rule, a far more important reason. It's by permission of Illúvatar (I assume) since he is being elevated to the ranks of the Maia. It's basically Illúvatar is THE God, and can do whatever he damn well pleases. If you are still confused e-mail Michael Martinez, he leaves his name on all the posts he makes. Just scroll down on the White Council and you should be able to find one. Jon
