What's the source for the story as presented in this article? I have some memory of it, but I don't recall where it came from. If it's an old source like the Lost Tales (which seems reasonably likely to me), I'd be happier if this were presented as a less certain part of the legendarium, perhaps labeling it as distinctly non-canonical. (Where do you build a minaret on a flower? Or on a ship carrying a flower, for that matter?) Knowing the source would help me (and us) make a better decision on the matter (and naming it in the article would probably be good, too).--Steuard 22:43, Nov 14, 2004 (UTC)
