Glaurung had no wings. IIRC, the original fire drakes were wingless. Morgoth was probably doing some cross breeding in his Super Secret 007 Dragon Lab to come up with ones like Ancalagon and Smaug.
And Sindohte and I had talked about putting the Silm discussion group on hiatus. Anna-anna had to pull out because of some RL stuff and that would have left Sind and me to do all the chapter summaries, which neither of us have the spare time to do at the moment. So we'll either have to wait until RL allows or until more people join in on summarizing the chapters.  But we'll get back around to it eventually.
Looking forward to your question!  |

I did volunteer to summarize chapters ... but I seem to be as busy as everyone else lately. By next week things should calm down ... maybe I'll send Sind a PM and see what chapter I can begin the discussion for.

Here's the question ... super easy just because I don't have much time right now to delve into the mysteries of the Sil ... which are many ... 
What waters did Carcaroth drink from to appease the pain the Silmaris was causing him?

What was the name of the feast held by Fingolfin near the pools of Ivrin and who showed up to attend?

Feast of Reuniting (don't know the Elvish off the top of my head)
Who attended:
Noldor
Beleg and Daeron from Doriath (Thingol was in snit about his hair and couldn't attend)
Cirdan & co.
Inglor

Inglor,
You got the name of the feast correct. However not all of the Noldor Elves showed up and there were some other Elves as well. And Beleg was not one of the representatives sent from Doriath. It was another well known Elf.
Let's keep guessing foks

fudge
I have a guess about the other cat from Doriath, but no clue about which Noldor didn't... so I shan't guess again
Inglor
