    Aulë was fucking savage, when his wife Yavanna worried that his creations, the Dwarves, would cut down all the trees, his response was “everyone is gonna cut down the trees”. Brutal.

      “‘Nonetheless they will have need of wood,’ said Aule, and he went on with his smith-work.” What a G.

      Nevertheless, they will need wood. Absolute dickhead. She should have made her trees eat dwarves in response.

      I would assume dwarves need the least wood. Their houses are made from stone and they most likely use mined coal for their smithing instead of charcoal.
