I Don't Think I Understand Dwarves.I Get That Khazad-dm Is Their Main, Greatest And Most Beautiful City,

I don't think I understand dwarves. I get that Khazad-dûm is their main, greatest and most beautiful city, a cultural treasure, but some pretty terrible things did happened there. And yet all they want is to reclaim it again and actually live there. It's like if elves were trying to restore the ruins of Gondolin (were it possible). "Sure, it was our most beautiful stronghold once, but on the other hand thousands of our people died here horribly... which doesn't give me nightmares at all..." I mean, the dwarves deserve our respect.

I really hate when someone offers for me five hundred camels and tells me I have beautiful eyes, but he just wants to sell me a tea.

Reblog if you know who Maedhros is

I have a feeling this won’t get a lot of notes, as the majority of people only know characters from the movies (which is totally fine) but I just wanted to see.

Maybe it’s weird but I genuinly like spiders. They’re fascinating (especially their webs) - eight legs and all.

And when you look at it from the right perspective, Shelob and Ungoliant are both such a strong female characters.

I actually could be on this “third side”.

Okay, so we’re often led to believe that spiders = the Dark Lords, especially in LOTR, where its like “lol yea spiders just hang around Mordor” and in lore for the Hobbit, too, where its like “lol Necromancer’s land is riddled with em” but… does he even fuckin’ like the spiders??? We never see him use them. They’re just AROUND. In the shadows. Trailing him, picking on his Orcs as much as anyone else. I mean, he seems to like Shelob? But that doesn’t necessarily mean he likes all the others… Or is this just like… Him being all “fuck it I’m tired of existence, I’ll align myself to the spiders, too… cause you knnow what they threw my master in the Void and drowned me” I’ve always assumed that since Ungoliant isn’t a creation of Melkor, her brood aren’t even really allies of the Dark Forces. I’ve always seen them as their own faction.
