All of them?

Well it's a collective.

I finished reading the Silmarillion about a month ago. Quite the ride, and even more fun relating it to my friends later on.

My hair is typically soft so I find people patting my head from time to time.

This reminds of this one time a dog attacked me and wouldn't leave me alone until I gave it headpats

Damn I'm tired

Pretty good right? How come we don't get that same level of world building these days?

It's just one book with a lot of different stories. Sure originally it were just a lot of seperate stories, but afaik it's only been released as a single book.

I just like to think of them as separate works because that's how they were originally intended to be and my professor always treated them like so.

I mean it was practically a lifetime of world building coming from an accomplished scholar. That's a lot to ask for. Tolkien wouldn't have even done so much of it if C.S. Lewis didn't pester him about it all the time.

My favorite part was what a bitch Morgoth was throughout the whole thing, especially when he had to solo that one elf, but he couldn't land a single goddamn blow on him. That was some Dark Souls shit right there. Melkor only won because the elf got tired and tripped on the absolute destruction left in his wake. Didn't even bother to smack him with his hammer, either. Just stepped on him. I pictured he just sighed in frustration, dropped the hammer, and then stepped on the elf. Then the great Dark Lord looked at all the Balrogs with a triumphant smile, but then realized that was pretty fucking lame and looked solemnly at the ground until Thorondor or whatever that eagle was came over and clawed his face a bit.

It even mentioned that not even the Elves sing of that because it was so sad. For the elf. But I think it was also for Morgoth.

Tolkien has a habit of making his antagonists seem like asswipes for some reason. Maybe it has a deeper meaning of how pathetic and feeble they really are on the inside.
