High King Ithilion wrote: It's pretty clear that the published works, written at an earlier time, intend Orcs to be elves. but later Tolkien reconsidered the behavior of Orcs and decided it was more in line with that of Men, meaning they were the original basis. Anyway, there is reason to assume Tolkien didn't quite complete his own quest in finding a closing story on the origins of orcs ... which grants us here and now, some room for creative interpretation and addition ... and hence my personal attempts to throw in some coin Mr. lore boss man sir. :P
