The sons of Fëanor are broken, and now dwell in the foothills of Ered Lindon. The Easterling men are sent to Hithlum where they pillage the remaining people of Hador, who are eventually forced into labor in the north. Morgoth sends forces to Brithombar and Eglarest near the sea and slays the greater part of Círdan’s people. Círdan and Gil-Galad flee to the mouths of Sirion, and Turgon asks Círdan to make seven ships to send into the West. Only one of these messengers return. Morgoth is angered for allowing Turgon to escape. Morgoth tries in vain to convince Húrin to betray Turgon, but Húrin refuses. Morgoth binds him to a peak of Thangorodrim so that he can see the destruction that will come. A great heap of the slain is formed in Anfauglith, Hadh-en-Ndengin, the Hill of the Slain. 01:50 Cameron reads pages 195-197 from the Silmarillion, 2nd Edition 09:52 Recap 10:59 Discussion "The Orcs and the wolves went freely through all the North, and came ever further southward into Beleriand." ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch this Episode on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Send feedback to [email protected] Follow us as we follow Tolkien: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TWITTER⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DISCORD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ The Rings of Power comes to Amazon, but nothing compares to the real story JRR Tolkien wrote.
