Saddest Moment In Tolkien

ASmileThatExplodes · 09-21-2011, 01:09 PM

Death of Fingolfin, for sure. I normally never cry when reading a book, watching a movie, etc., but the tears were dripping off my chin, when I read thÃ*t scene in the Silmarillion. Also the death of Fingon is, indeed, very sad. Those goddamned Orcs! I always wonder, if the Elves buried Fingon? I WILL cry, if they didn't.

The departure of Elrond is also very sad, but beautiful. He will see his wife again, hallelujah! After quite a long time!
