I love all the stories that tell about the children of HΓΊrin and those that describe all these wars especially the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, the Unnumbered Tears... and the stories of Gondolin... well I dunno any word thats good enough for that π

It never explained Ungoliant satisfactorily to my mind. Melkor did succeed in excluding the Valar from Middle Earth - good comeback. I would like to have seen what Utumno was like (in LOTR it is referred to as "...the Underworld of old..."π π

"Grond" the battering ram which the trolls used to break the gates of Minas Tirith was "...named after the hammer of the Underworld of old..." πΏ Melkor's hammer.
