Forth Eorlingas!
The Valar and Maiar came from beyond the realms of Arda, but the second I start talking about how Gandalf is an alien, Tolkien scholars stop taking me seriously.

Cs Lewis: ok you know what fuck youCS Lewis: I could beta for you if you want. help you trim the fat on your stories
Tolkien: what do you mean
CS Lewis: I just. you describe a lot of trees. are trees that important
Tolkien: just you fucking wait. trees are SO important.
~and that day, Tolkien invented ents~
CS Lewis: Not more trees.
Tolkien: This one’s based on you.

The Silmarillion gave me a new perspective.
