069: Perpetual Friendship
Explore the Appendix to the Lord of the Rings, and all the works of JRR Tolkien, from the Silmarillion and the Hobbit and beyond, including Rings of Power. A holy hill, a solemn oath, a mysterious tomb; What do these things have in common? Perhaps one of Tolkien’s most beloved themes, in a word, Friendship. Today we dive deep on the oath sworn between Rohan and Gondor, and how it all connects to a faithful Elf-friend of old. We explore the Oath of Cirion and Eorl as told in Unfinished Tales.
