Having Aredhel was like having a sister throughout their childhood.

pine cone house ❗❗

this is part of my Greenwood worldbuilding - while they do build talans as Lothlórien does, they are of a somewhat different style, to better suit their pine forest

a small collection of these in a tight copse of trees would be considered a village, and residents are typically deeply familiar with one another, as villages are spread few and far between across Greenwood's massive territory

Tauriel's parents befriend her future guardian in this way, knowing his family, before he moves to Felegoth in order to tailor outfits for the King

unfortunately, with the encroachment of spiders, most villages are abandoned as they offer little protection. Felegoth -- Thranduil's cave halls -- had always been designed as a last refuge in times of crisis. its population surges from a skeleton crew to most elves of Mirkwood until the vanquishing of the Necromancer

That feeling, when in one day you can be a human from MiddleEarth and for the rest of the days a human from middle europe. 🙈😄🙄

Every time I read or watch Lord of the Rings I can’t help but think about how Tolkien had survived one of the bloodiest, most cruel, most dirtiest and darkest wars in human history, came back and wrote this:

“The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.”

And this:

"'I wish it need not have happened in my time,' said Frodo.

'So do I,' said Gandalf, 'and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.'"

And this:

"I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend."

And this:

“Many that live deserve death and some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be so eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the wise cannot see all ends."

And this:

“True courage is about knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one.”

And clearly they were all written partly because he survived the war, because of what he’d seen and done and learned. But at the same time the unwillingness to lose faith, the courage and strength that this man had to believe in these things after going through hell! It makes the nihilists look so cheap, so uninteresting! People who’ve went through concentration camps and wars believe in humanity anyway, isn’t that proof that hope and love exist? And many, many, many of them did not return or returned broken and cruel and traumatised to the point when no faith in others was possible for them, and nobody can blame them. But there were many who refused to lose faith and hope. They have seen some of the worst that life has to offer and came back believing that we shouldn’t be eager to deal out death in judgement and should love only that which the sword defends.

No matter how many people say that humanity is horrible and undeserving of love, and life is dark and worthless, and love doesn’t exist I remember this and have hope anyway. Because there were people who have actually had all reason to believe in the worst and still believed in the good, so the good must be real. The good is real, even despite the evil, and we must trust in it.

One of my favorite things in the LOTR books is Sam being obsessed with Elven magic and wanting to see it and when Galadriel finds out she basically tells Sam "I don't know what the fuck magic is but I can show you the future in this bowl of water if you want" as if that's just a normal ass thing to be able to do.

#to be fair it is normal for elves #but literally no one else is capable of this kind of shit and it's the funniest thing in the world to me #lotr #galadriel #samwise gamgee #lord of the rings #elves #tolkien elves

Dinner time

AU in which Caranthir and Haleth have a kid.

It's fine, its fine. As long as the child is kept out of any offical record the Doom of Mandos cannot touch him, right?

#mis trazos #tolkien world #silmarillion #caranthir #Haleth #I support the idea of a secret feanorian baby!#plus I love the idea of Erestor being Caranthir's kid #they just have to cover his ears and it's all fine right? :P #my latest attempt to draw a ghibli meal

I also would like people to give more appreciation to the great thematic unity in all of The Lord of the Rings. The idea is “do what good you can with what you are given.” Usually your abilities and your chances seem horribly small, even though your responsibility is so enormous. The minutes, the little decisions, the days, the small towns, the small characters, matter the most. The fate of the whole big world of good and evil and languages and races and heroes and villains all hangs on what’s done by a little scholar and his gardener.

#It’s every bit as complicated and uncomplicated as that #Tolkien might be obsessed with little details like history and languages for every region of his made-up world #but that’s because he knew that little details matter in life and in literature because they make up reality.#the lord of the rings #lotr #lord of the rings #the shire #Mordor #Aragorn #Frodo #middle-earth #Sam gamgee #Sméagol #one ring #Sauron #Gandalf
