Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 27/01/2025Finwë fathered some sassy boys. Here are some sassy quotes from his sons: 1. “Get thee gone, and take thy due place!” 2. “This is sharper than thy tongue. Try but once more to usurp my place and love of my father, and maybe it will rid the Noldor of one who seeks to be the master of thralls.” 110
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 27/01/2025“Come forth, thou coward king, to fight with thine own hand! Den-dweller, wielded of thralls, liar and lurker, foe of Gods and Elves, come! For I would see thy craven face.” —Of Morgoth, Notes on the Elder Days, Beren and Lúthien 2018 Fingolfin4Lyfe #tolkien #luinellë 030

Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 24/01/2025It’s wild to think MAEGLIN was probably allowed to be rehoused when Fëanor wasn’t. I can’t imagine that his spirit would have been “healed”. The dude was a huge dick. Massive. He’s totally the kid that kills small animals as a child that ends up being a serial killer in adulthood. #tolkien 010
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 19/01/2025Y’all… Nosferatu was so good. I guess it’s technically horror, but it’s definitely not scary. It’s very atmospheric and gothic and moody and the sense of dread is just so good. Probably the best vampire movie I’ve ever seen. Robert Eggers really is so talented. 020
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 19/01/2025One of the bartenders asked what I was reading and I got to explain who Christopher Tolkien was and what the History of Middle-earth series is about. He looked like he was drowning by the end of it. Lol. 080

He edited around two-dozen books of his father's works, and brought us much of what we now know about Middle-earth, for which we are all incredibly grateful. He is missed. Namárië. 312730

Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 15/01/2025What’s your criteria for following someone back? For me it’s: 1. They’re in the same sphere of interest as me. 2. They regularly post about said interest. 3. We have more than a couple mutuals in common. 4. They’re not posting a bunch of intentionally inflammatory stuff to get a rise out of people. 150
Reposted by Lammoth WraithBetweenHorizons | Anna Olsen @betweenhorizons.bsky.social · 14/01/2025This is so real. The Elves spend their whole lives looking backwards - back to Tirion, back to Valinor. Everything they do in Middle-earth points backwards - they're always trying to go back, return, make their world like it used to be. It's all an echo. 221
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 14/01/2025#tolkien #luinellë It’s deeply unsatisfying to me that I don’t get closure for what happened to Saruman’s spirit. At first I thought he was called back for judgement but then I thought he might have been denied and remained in ME, a spirit unable to take form again. But Unfinished Tales says: 130
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 14/01/2025When Denethor threw the phrase of “wizard’s pupil” around about Faramir, what exactly did he think a Wizard was? He’s so freaking lucky that he had Gandalf in his city, the only Istar who remained loyal to his errand. He should have told Denethor what he really is. #tolkien #luinellë 110
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 14/01/2025Let’s just say I don’t have any Elves as role models, but I do have Aragorn, Faramir, Éowyn, Théoden and Frodo as characters who I’d like to be like in real life. There’s a certain kind of wisdom to be gained from our experience of mortality that the Elves can’t. #tolkien #luinellë 2173
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 14/01/2025I think I’ve come to accept that I’m not a Silmarillion girlie. I’m an OG LOTR girlie. I, of course, enjoy the Silmarillion a lot but it’s a bit lofty for me. I think I’m actually a lot like Sam; a little simple. #tolkien #luinellë 7100

Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 13/01/2025I just want to remind everyone that no one is perfect, not even JRR Tolkien.

Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 11/01/2025More thoughts: When Eru says that he sent the Flame to the heart of the World, I don’t think he meant that he put it in the core of Arda. In that same paragraph, he says that Eä is the World that Is; both Worlds are capitalized here too so I can only assume that he means that he sent forth his 140
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 11/01/2025Darkness, capital D? Is this a darkness other than the absence of light? Seems like it’s pretty straightforward but the capitalization makes me wonder. #tolkien #luinellë 130
Lammoth Wraith @lammothwraith.bsky.social · 11/01/2025I’m just now learning about how Patrick Rothfuss scammed people for $1.2mil and that he was paid by his publisher to write his 3rd book 10 years ago but hasn’t delivered a single chapter.
