Here’s my @officialtolkiensecretsanta for @outofangband! Húrin and Morwen sharing a tender moment during the sunset :D It’s been snowing quite a bit where I am, so I went with a warm palette for this painting! I can’t wait for a bit of warmth weather loll

In the meantime, I wish y’all a wonderful holiday and happy new year!! <333

it's time to ask some real questions: Why are there only like 3 Fingon&Hurin fics on ao3? like where are fics about Fingon and Hurin being besties? Where are the fics about them getting drunk together, drunk dancing together at parties? Them throwing snow at each other's faces? Just overall messing around? Where are silly comedies of Hurin being about to meet Mae for the first time and hearing from anti-feanorian residents of Hithlum some stories of Maedhros, of how horrible and a monster and a spy of Morgoth he is. And Hurin after hearing that, going to Finno and being like ,,I'll do anything in my power to protect you from that awful person'' and Fingon's like ,,????....oh, you've heard these weird rumours? Don't mind it. My husband is the most lovely person you'll see!"" and Hurin being like ,,.... your... husband?'' and it's just such a shock for him because Fingon has never mentioned being married before (he thought it was obvious or sth). Anyway, there comes the day when Hurin finally meets Mae. And for a while he really is close to believing the stories, despite his bestie being so fond of the guy, because Mae's zobie-esque looks and overall grumpy manner (he was tired after the trip, like, the way from Himring is long, cold and on top of that he has to deal with phantom pains, everyone would be a bit moody in his position) However, at the end they would bond over their love for Fingon ( romantic and platonic respectively) , Hurin would probably tell Mae some of dumbass shits Fingon has done when Mae wasn't around to be his voice of reason ( or even just self-preservation instinct, because Fingon himself has NONE). Silly story ending with Hurin promising Mae to look after his husband & drag him out of all the dangerous situations he might get himself in. Also I think maybe some short Fingon agenda - Hurin being a bit taller than Fingon and constantly teasing him about it

Idk what else, at this point probably anything. WHY IS THEIR FRIENDSHIP SLEPT ON *sobs into my pillow like seriously, they have so much chaotic duo potential

In June, I tackled the first part of Húrin's biography -- the years of his youth full of heroism, hope, and miraculous rescues to hidden kingdoms.

But this wouldn't be The Silmarillion if this story had a happy ending, would it? As Dawn Felagund notes, Húrin might have one of the rawest deals in a book of raw deals. So this month at the @silmarillionwritersguild we turn to last stands, dooms and curses, and questions on divine justice and vision.

Part 1: The Making of the Hero

Part 2: The Subversion of the Hero

With much thanks to @rittare whose beautiful art is featured in this article.

All I want is for Maedhros and Hurin to meet up for drinks sometime and compare notes on Angband.

finally finished the redone strength card!

I screen recorded me doing part of this because... i’ve always wanted to try. it could be better but if you’re curious, here is the link

Maria Filatova @rittare's beautiful painting of Húrin, lord of Dor-lomin, illustrates the second half of Húrin's biography by @melestasflight.

In the first half of Húrin's biography, @melestasflight makes the case that he is a prototypical hero within the legendarium, a character who possibly inspired Third Age heroes like Aragorn. In the biography's second half, Húrin's life takes a turn for the tragic. (But of course! It is The Silmarillion!)

Húrin might have one of the rawest deals in a book of raw deals. After sacrificing himself so that Gondolin could survive, he experiences physical and psychological torment in Morgoth's hands, helplessly watches the tragic demise of his family, and once freed, goes forth not to a hero's welcome but to mistrust and a series of betrayals. Melesta teases out the elements of this part of the story that have deeper historical and literary resonances, including what Húrin's story tells us of heroism.

You can read Part 2 of Húrin's biography here, published by @silmarillionwritersguild

Everybody needs to stop what they are doing and watch this now. Do it for the chills.

Hot take:

Hurin Thalion as a grave robber.

Thingol as the British Museum.

Ft. The Nauglamir.

For the sketches, you had me at bromance! 😁 How about Fingon and Húrin? Thanks for sharing!

Always some good bromance between Elvers and Humans
