I find this alternate version of the awakening of Men very interesting. I like how you explored how things could have gone if this were how Men were discovered by the Elves, and how much this little difference changes the course of the First Age! 

Who needs Valinor when you can have Beleriand like this!?

You have some lovely ideas here — it's so interesting to think how the same things can happen but turn out so differently...
