0288 » Silmarillion 2022 Ch 9 - Of the Flight of the Noldor

This is an in-depth discussion of "Of the Flight of the Noldor", the 9th chapter of The Silmarillion. Learn how to get the most out of your reading from this long-form exploration of JRR Tolkien's First Age story of Fëanor's Oath!

Chapter 9 brings us to the terrible aftermath of Valinor’s Darkening. Will Melkor be held to account? Can Ungoliant be stopped? Is there any saving the Two Trees? And what of the Silmarils?

QUOTE OF THE WEEK: "Yavanna spoke before the Valar, saying: ‘The Light of the Trees has passed away, and lives now only in the Silmarils of Fëanor. Foresighted was he! Even for those who are mightiest under Ilúvatar there is some work that they may accomplish once, and once only. The Light of the Trees I brought into being, and within Eä I can do so never again. Yet had I but a little of that light I could recall life to the Trees, ere their roots decay; and then our hurt should be healed, and the malice of Melkor be confounded.’"

In Chapter 9, we’ll learn:
- Of Melkor’s Escape
- Of the Dreadful Oath of Fëanor
- Of the Kinslaying
- And much more!

Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 04 » Of Thingol and Melian

Hey there, fellow travelers!Our 2025 Silmarillion journey continues with Chapter 4 of Quenta Silmarillion - Of Thingol and Melian!Over the next several months, we'll be continuing to revisit the entire 30-episode Silmarillion series that Greta and I recorded back in 2022. And while you're listening, check out SilmGuide.com for guides to individual chapters.Chapter 4 of The Silmarillion is a short and succinct “boy-meets-girl” story, or so a surface reading would suggest. However, as with most things Tolkien, there is much more to it than that, as it is in fact an important development in the history of Middle-earth, and in it we see key themes begin to develop to the point of fruition.To support our work here, please visit Patreon.com/TolkienRoad.Enjoy!OTHER LINKS:Video of this episode: https://youtu.be/z1a3ELPMuqwWatch AD-FREE: https://www.patreon.com/posts/123934895Listen AD-FREE: https://www.patreon.com/posts/63380305Buy Tolkien Road merch @ True Myths PressBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tolkien-road--5222755/support.
