In the lore of Lord of the Rings, it is said that the supreme being of that universe personally created both men and elves and since men were his favorite creations, he gave them the gift of... having pretty short lives (wow, thanks). Well, octopuses have a much shorter lifespan than us, so if our universe's creator is anything like the Middle Earth's then there's a good chance they are his favorites.
isn't middle earth wholly explicitly our earth? and thus eru iluvitar is explicitly the creator of our earth.
It's been a while, so correct me if I'm wrong; but isn't the gift moving on to something else after a mortal life? If I recall correctly, elves are stuck in the physical world forever. Even when they die don't they just go to some limnal place for a while then come back?
Essentially, yeah.
Elves’ spirits either linger in Middle Earth or go to the Halls of Mandos in Aman. After some period of time, they can be re-embodied if they choose.
The souls of men did not linger, they were called to the Halls of Mandos upon death. Their souls would stay for a while in Mandos, separate from the elves, until they departed the Halls to only Eru knows where.
Isekai followup when?
Recycling without memory wiping? What a lazy ass.
