Description

In Tolkien's earliest work, spirits literally passed over to the Blessed Realm in their dreams, following the Olórë Mallë, or "Path of Dreams" across the Great Sea. This idea seems to have faded in his later work, though it is never explicitly rejected. So, while Lórien's connection with dreams is certain, it's never made clear exactly what role he played, especially in the later developments of the mythos. It may be that he still summoned sleeping fëar along the Path of Dreams to the gardens that shared his name, or his role may shifted to something more subtle, such as sending the meaningful dreams that certain characters experience in Tolkien's tales.
