Tolkien Gateway > Forums > Dwarves and their 'Ones'?


Hi! I read somewhere that wen a dwarf falls in love it is not like other races, they know they've found their soulmate when their skin touches. They are called their 'One'. Very few Dwarves fall in love, as their aren't many female Dwarves. This is what I was told, but I wanted to know if it was true. I'm relatively new to this and want to make sure this isn't a random fangirl invention! Thanks, Dwarvishskylark
