It is the hour for the fulfillment of prophecy, and out of this peril heroic deeds shine forth!QUOTE OF THE WEEKfrom The Silmarillion Chapter 23...Great was the sorrow of Eärendil and Elwing for the ruin of the havens of Sirion, and the captivity of their sons, and they feared that they would be slain; but it was not so. For Maglor took pity upon Elros and Elrond, and he cherished them, and love grew after between them, as little might be thought; but Maglor’s heart was sick and weary with the burden of the dreadful oath.LINKS & MATHOMS:- listen to The Silmarillion for FREE » https://www.audibletrial.com/everon- buy The Silmarillion » https://amzn.to/3FOKAY5- buy The Atlas of Middle-earth » https://amzn.to/3KLOxQa- buy Tolkien's Requiem » https://tolkiensrequiem.com/- buy Tolkien's Overture » https://tolkiensoverture.com/- Timeline of Arda » https://lotr.fandom.com/wiki/Timeline_of_Arda- Interactive Map of Beleriand » http://lotrproject.com/map/beleriand/- Episode 58 » Silmarillion 2015 » Ch 24 » Of Tuor and the Fall of Gondolin » https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgQWtIvTmjo SPECIAL THANKS:- John R- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- Jacob Lockham- John H- Scotchy Bobo- Ms. Anonymous- Andrew T- Redhawk- Shannon S- Brian O- Emilio P- Zeke F- James A- James L- Chris L- Chuck F- Asya V- Ish of the Hammer- Teresa C- David of Pints with Jack- Jonathan D- Eric B- Johanna T- Mike M- Robert H- Paul D- Julia- Werty- Matthew W- JoeBagelMan- Chris K- Jacob S- Richard K- Matt R- Garret P- John W- Eugene D- Seb MAS WELL AS THOSE CELEBRATING THEIR PATRON ANNIVERSARY THIS MONTH (OCTOBER OF 2022)- Redhawk- Alex SBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tolkien-road--5222755/support.
