The Silmarillion: Chapters 9 and 10

from A Couple of Simarils

In this episode of A Couple of Silmarils, we dive into Chapters 9 and 10 of The Silmarillion, where the Noldor Elves leave Valinor. We follow Fëanor’s and the terrible Oath he makes, the first Kinslaying, and the tragic division of the Noldor as they flee Aman and pursue Morgoth into Middle-earth. We also slow down to explore the Sindar Elves of Beleriand—their culture, their friendship with the Dwarves, the splendor of Menegroth, and the first battles of the War of Beleriand as evil stirs once again.
