Hah! I suppose they might be. Alright, well, the elven-light is the easiest thing - you've seen my kinsmen by now, yes? Ever notice that they glow? All elves do, although the Valinoreans are brighter, something something Light of the Trees... ask Maglor to tell you that part, it's really fun when he does it, because he was there to see them and can show you how they looked. It's something about how we Men are tied to our bodies, with the hroa, the physical, being the dominant part of our natures, but for elves, its the other way around, with the fea, the spirit or soul, being the more dominant. Quite literally, you're seeing the edges of their spirits spill out over the constraints of their flesh."
