Lore of Middle-earth - Húrin Thalion

[@emmacoumbe8393]

Not going to lie, these are awesome videos for me to fall asleep to when I’m feeling anxious and struggling to sleep. They are pretty good ASMR, your story telling is awesome and they help me chill out and eventually sleep.

[@thrithgolden2748]

Mee too ❤

[@jgoldberg9489]

Me three haha

[@jorrelalexander2248]

Especially the old videos with the calm/ambient soundtrack in the background was very peaceful

[@supershenron9162]

His mic is of quality we have come to expect, his clarity of voice and ability to understand what it is that he's saying is great. And ofcourse his ability to coalesce a long in depth story to shorter one without losing the effect of the story is bar none. My go to source for all things Tolkien related

[@TheZestyCar]

Oh yes, it's a lore video!

[@hirluinthefair4335]

Galu, have you ever considered recording audiobooks? Your voice is just amazing and it would be a joy to hear you read a fantasy novel.

[@Antipius]

Delightful voice! Thank you for making these, I'm sure they're a ton more work than your usual videos... And I'm thankful for it :)

[@RipRoarin]

70 times he cried those words. And that was after Huor died & only Hurin was left. This would be an amazing movie.

[@kylemoore687]

Aure Entuluva!!!! It would be fantastic if it could be realized as written but I don't trust any production company to do it right now. I'd rather never see it come to life than have it changed in any way

[@johngallacher7249]

Really enjoying the lore videos recently as they are linked together and I love the idea of doing an episode devoted to the battle next that would tie in all the stories of the last months together. Keep it up Galu.

[@KS-xk2so]

Hurin Thalion is just a non stop badass. Literally at one point it's Hurin alone vs. Morgoth's entire army, and yet he fights on like a boss. I'm shocked he could fight so well, without tripping over his enormous cock. Then he is dragged before Evil Incarnate himself, and tells him to his face, to eat shit. Pure Chad!

[@R-es5pg]

Wonderful storytelling Galu! Such a tragic story.

[@ltu7384]

This is a superb video, maybe the best yet - I managed to learn a few new aspects of this tale, and I hugely enjoyed your analysis when delving into the thought process of Christopher Tolkien of how the stories were collated / evolved over time.

[@ernest342]

Hodor is in Game of Thrones and all he can say is hodor. Keep up the lore videos

[@johny16G]

Thank you for the great video. My morning, thanks to you, is Just like I like my cofee - bittersweet in a good way!

[@krismi1755]

What a depth of details. Good job, Galu !!

[@irishman6666]

I hope for more lore videos. Love them.

[@GingAshNDrHax]

Damn, I guess no sleep tonight again, even though I have that horrible chemistry exam tomorrow

[@Brokout]

Hey Arachîr, any chance you can do some deep dive lore videos on the forests of Middle Earth? They’re my favourite places in Tolkien’s world and I’d love to know all about Mirkwood, the Old Forest etc, thank you!

[@SpicyTrifongo]

great stuff, you help so many learn more about what they love

[@kaziabbas3537]

Finally found your videos.

[@valandil86]

Lore vid 😍😍😍

[@xianceselassie7239]

I have a request...PLZ Do a lore video on the elf sword Ringil !!! Plz and thanks

[@juandiegobarrios8338]

I'd love a video about the Nírnaeth Arnoediad

[@Ladislau_Demeter]

Thank you!

[@annewise4826]

galu there are 6 i think: denethor, hurin, nienor, turin, aerin, and meadhros

[@matthewsalton887]

great video! love this so much. I'm currently writing a script for The Fall of Gondolin, and I'm torn between doing a prologue of the founding of Gondolin or the prologue of the Nirnaeth Anorediad... It would be sick to see the army of Gondolin come out onto the battlefield and establish the connection between Tuor and Turgon through Huor. But at the same time, I think it's important to establish why Vinyamar is abandoned and that Gondolin is a secret kingdom. I don't think to have both scenes in the script would benefit the audience watching or reading because the story after all is about the FALL of Gondolin, and not its particular founding and its deeds in battle. I went with the founding of Gondolin, but perhaps I'll have to write an alternative prologue with the Nirnaeth Anorediad.

[@gm2407]

Which did you go with?

[@kylemoore687]

Did you ever finish this? I'd love to read it

[@matthewsalton887]

@@kylemoore687 still working on it. I’ve been busy with school. BUT, I’m sitting at 60 pages with some 15,000 words. I’m right in the middle of the fall.

[@kylemoore687]

@@matthewsalton887 if you can remember please come back and link it I'd appreciate it

[@shreyanssolanki8582]

great video galu, i was just wondering whats is the type of the text that you use, its cool

Black Chancery.

[@huyckhl6074]

In Lord the rings we got impression man are getting stronger while other weaker in time. But in the First Age, some Edain can be captain of Noldor unit. With the deeds of Húrin, make me think even men get significant weaker compare to their ancestor.

[@icantthinkofafunname]

So..... whens the next lore video coming?

[@hugoakerlund5114]

Well I mean, the age thing with Hour marching to war at 13 whilst Hurin was 14 and all that. It's kinda alike to the drinking age today and things akin to that like drivers license etc

[@plasticreplica]

Love theseeee

[@coni7392]

Hey Arachir, or anyone that may know, does the hot seat campaign work at all? i want to play with my little brother. Its something we have done and bonded with each other with for years just wondering if it works.

[@angusevans175]

Hi Arachîr, I remember you saying in one of your Lorecasts that you will give people access to lore videos you deleted, is that still the case? I love all of them, very informative and easy to understand even with the numerous names that are thrown out there!

Sure: kzbin.info/aero/PLesZst-z4ywZSrEMa1ybHWhNXfxZivH0W

[@angusevans175]

@ Thanks a lot, appreciate that. Have a good weekend

[@Rintse]

I seem to recall more origin/first agey videos than I can find in the current lore playlist. Am I going mad or have you thinned the lore videos out a bit?

kzbin.info/aero/PLesZst-z4ywZSrEMa1ybHWhNXfxZivH0W

[@Rintse]

@ cheers. I love these videos.

[@augustwest4233]

Good stuff but the plan wasn't to wait until the orcs had spent themselves it was to wait until the Army of Maedhros could be seen and the beacon was lit.

Source?

[@jgoldberg9489]

Hey Galu , is this the final Lore of Middle-earth video we'll be seeing from you ?

[@gcarrington12]

😍

[@MasterTurner969]

Great

[@ltu7384]

Ok one more comment....who are the other 3 suicides ? Nienor, Elwing, Maedhros?

[@futbolusa]

Would have liked to have heard a little bit more analysis as to what the point of Tolkien's stories were what they were. For me the Children of Hurin is the saddest story I have ever read. There has to be a point to this tragedy otherwise the characters' suffering was for nought

There is no message in Tolkien's works. He talks about this a few times. There needn't be a message in everything you know. Life is for your own interpretation.

[@futbolusa]

@ I believe there is always something to learn from his works. Are you saying what we learn is purely up to our interpretation of the story?

[@booradley1138]

"However!"

[@OutWestC]

LOTR Junkie since had 1 !!

[@augustwest4233]

Dude you totally left out the other half of this battle. I appreciate your effort but tell the whole story.

I followed Hurin only. The video is not called "the Nirnaeth Arnoediad". I even said in the video that the battle deserves its own video.

[@supershenron9162]

Nay Nay so I say, should long you call this video. Then sorry do I feel, for the women you lay. Lmfao
