      Sorta. We know he’s amoung the oldest beings in universe given the acorn line being able to be interpreted as seeing the first acorn or to be the first to see an acorn so first valar or eru.

      I like to think he’s the conscious embodiment entropy of middle earth.

        I mean, its entirely possible that he was created as some unforseen confluence of melodies in the Song of the Ainur. Sort of like how the popular theory for the origin of Ungoliant is that she arose from the discord between Melkor’s song and Eru’s song
