The War of Wrath
Do any Tolkien fans have stern views about Dwarves and the War of Wrath? Involved? Not involved? Innocent victims in the tragic ruins of Nogrod and Belegost?
(My Feanor story has got to the War of Wrath! And somehow it is 27700 words and growing. I am oscillating between 'this is so much fun!!! Filling in all the details!!!' (there appear to be almost zero canon details about the War of Wrath, and particularly about the Feanorians in it) and 'what on earth am I doing???' I am fairly sure there must be lots of other fanfic on this but I daren't read it yet or else I will become discouraged and never finish mine. My roleplaying character Angruin is not in it, (except, possibly as a vague background figure). For some reason I feel vaguely embarrassed about including him as a named character.
