nargothrond

This story originated as an RP between myself and @Tyelkormo the Fair. We would love to hear your thoughts. https://thetolkien.forum/threads/quest-for-your-heart.32855/ Prequel one-shot about Edrahil: The Sculpture and the Willow Chapter List: Prologue: Once Upon A Time, Far Away Chapter 1...

Link to Discussion Thread and Chapter List Prologue: Once Upon A Time, Far Away Éowyn was starting to get mightily annoyed. The young (he looked young, even if he was not) elf was good looking, she would give him that, but even that could not be enough reasons as to why Éowyn should...

After Celegorm and Curufin left Nargothrond, Celebrimbor stayed. Did he only leave when it was destroyed, or was it earlier? And did he immediately go build Eregion, or were there any events in between?

I was researching which Elven kingdom after the Battle of Unnumbered Tears had the strongest defense, which unsurprisingly ended up being a debate between Menegroth and Gondolin with Nargothrond being left behind, but through that discussion, I was able to read a lot of their points on why, with...

Is Glaurung ever specifically stated to be stronger than say, the Balrogs? I'm writing a paper, and wondering why Morgoth would send Glaurung specifically to Nargothrond when he could have sent any number of Balrogs, or even Sauron, who I believe was at Angband at the time. any insight would be...

From Years of the Trees to the Third Age it seems like the Elves lived in extensive city-states. Does anyone know if Tolkien ever said whether these were just capitols and smaller cities and towns existed? We know Eöl lived with a household in Nan Elmoth and that's about it. Everyone else...

When the glaurung and orcs came to the city of nargothrond, was there any war with the elves in the city? Or was it a total massacre?

Is the battle of tumhalad and the sack of nargothrond considered as different war or the same war?

Which one is your favorite, mine is Nargothrond. Finrod Felagund is one of my favorite characters in the Silmirillion and Nargothrond only fell after he died in Tol-in-Gaurhoth. Gondolin stayed secret longer and so it survived longer and got stronger.

I was just wondering what would have happened if Finrod had been able to persuade his people to aid Beren in the quest of the Silmaril? I'm thinking there would have been a huge battle at Tol Sirion, which may have still resulted in Finrod's death and perhaps Beren's capture. Would it have...

Unfinished Tales Thus Gwindor spoke. How do you suppose the Elves of Nargothrond prophecied this? And when they did do you think that they thought it would be one of the Edain? Do you think that they even thought that the messenger would be guided by a Silmaril? What do you think of this...
