Hmmm, I'm not quite following. The First Song is the source of all music in your world?

Yes - but more importantly, it is the source of the world, itself.

The source of the world?

[ Skepticism is quite clear. ]

Mm, you could call it... its underpinning? [ Maglor gropes for words to express concepts that he feels, more than speaks ] Its building blocks, perhaps?

It is why the greatest works of my people have always been done with and through Song, for so we touch the heart of creation. Everything has it's own melody, the song it wants to sing, it's part in the Great Music that both is the world and holds it together. And if you can hear it, you can influence it.
