Doriath's History & Its Ruinous Downfall | Tolkien Lore
➤ Founded by Elwë, later Elu Thingol, Doriath was one of the greatest kingdoms in the First Age of Middle-earth. However, greed and lust would drive a wedge between the Sindarin Elves of Doriath and the Dwarves of Nogrod, leading to war between the two and the Sacking of Menegroth. A few years later, the Second Kinslaying would occur and the once sacred and mighty realm would finally meet its utter destruction.

I feel like salazar should be having 3 movies to kill him
So anyone who destroyed Davy Jones' heart must become the captain of the Dutchman? What if for some unknown reason, the heart was eaten by a fish?
Fish becomes captain and all must abide by his rule of the Dutchman. In all seriousness, these types of things are something I don't think they thought through entirely or maybe it's a specific condition where it has to be stabbed by a person. The whole "the Dutchman must have a captain" rule convolutes things because if it's destroyed via another method that isn't someone directly taking the place of Davy Jones, then how can Davy Jones die if someone isn't replacing him and the Dutchman must be captained? As much as I enjoy these films, and have done since they were still coming out, they're filled with a lot of inconsistencies and odd questions being raised and left unanswered; if you take a look at this comment section alone, you'll see some other examples of this. I appreciate you watching, thank you. :D
It's weird that Salazar's men didn't die immediately after the curse was lifted, given the state they were in.
I appreciate how the franchise went out of its way to acknowledge the fact Cortez was a greedy monster
How would the dwarves of nogrod be compared to their northern kin of belegost? Would they still be considered allies specifically to the sons of Fëanor since the dwarves of belegost fought alongside the noldor of the east lead by maedhros.
This is an interesting question; the sons of Fëanor in particular would attack the same people the dwarves of Nogrod did, the elves of Doriath and the kingdom, in the Second Kinslaying. The dwarves, in general, it seems would lose a lot of reputation and affability among the elves, much like the sons of Fëanor did, in later ages (and vise versa with the elves in the eyes of the dwarves). As for the sons of Fëanor, I think towards the end of the First Age especially, they were just trying to finally fulfill the oath of Fëanor, so they didn't care who it was, but if they withheld the Silmarils or prevented them from obtaining them, they would see that person or group of people as an enemy. With that said, if the dwarves aided them in searching for the Silmarils, they would probably think more highly of them than other elves, especially those of Doriath.
watched notr's video on beren and luthien like a yr ago or smth and it's become 1 of my favorite stories in middle earth. the first age seems to have a lot of esoteric tales compared to other ages.
Lotr is too complicated for me tbh, even tho I'd say Star Wars still has more expansive lore (from what I know) it's easier to process and remember than alot of stuff in the Middle Earth books and stuff
need a video on aragorn! 😭😭
Fully agree honestly, 1 of the best characters in middle earth
I don't rly know too much about the silmarillion so this was an informative video and rly didn't know that this was why dwarves and elves dislike each other so that's nice to know 👍
Thank you for watching, I appreciate it. The Silmarillion is a good read, I highly recommend it and especially if you've read or even have watched The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings; you'll learn a lot more about Middle-earth just from that one book.
I feel like Thingol is just not as interesting of a character as other first age elves like Fingolfin and Fingon. 😭
agree!!
Forgot to mention that the Girdle of Melian falls and Melian departs after Thingol dies; I do bring this up in the Morgoth: Part II video, though.
What about the cockatrice? They are damn near just as dangerous as a basilisk. However, a little easier to kill apparently. They can kill you with their breath, by looking at you, or even by touching you apparently. They have many similar qualities to a basilisk, and as far as I know are not outlawed for breeding
Yeah, I think I mentioned them in the video. They are quite interesting and fairly similar to a Basilisk, as you said. However, they aren't on the XXXXX list of creatures under Ministry of Magic classification, you can find this in the Fantasic Beasts and Where to Find Them book, so I didn't include them as an entire entry. I was thinking about making more of these videos and covering the different levels of dangerous creatures to not-so-dangerous creatures according to the MoM.
Jack sparrows curse went well n Jack was safe
great video but do u plan on making more star wars videos soon? I think its been 4 months
yah, the bad batch breakdowns were the last ones so there hasn't been a non breakdown star wars video since like january I think 😭
this isn't about thorin exactly, but i feel like bard was better portrayed in the movies tbh. he just had a bigger role which made him more memorable and he seemed to have more of a presence in lake town even if it wasn't entirely good in the eyes of the master.
Why is the Dragons no attacking the elves? they too have many valuable treasures as well such as moon stones ect.
The dwarves, especially of Erebor, had hoards and hoards of treasure; I would say more so than any other race. This is because they lived underground and constantly focused on digging up more and more until, eventually, their greed caught up to them. They collected enough gold, silver, jewels, etc to attract the greed of a dragon, in the Lonely Mountain's case, Smaug. Dragons are even greedier and attracted to large piles of treasure especially, I don't think the elves had enough to really attract a dragon and many elves were farther south than Smaug, who lived in the North. In addition, Smaug likely didn't find Thranduil's kingdom, an elven kingdom closer to Erebor, to be grand enough compared to Erebor itself and he was the last of the great dragons; there were lesser dragons, but I'm sure the elves could manage these in the event of an attack better than other races if need be.
always found thorin to be an interesting character and I think richard armitage did amazing in the movies even if he was slightly different from book thorin
For those of you who enjoy using closed captions, I took the time to make completely accurate subtitles you can enable on the video. This will be something prevalent and available on all of my videos moving forward.
i actually do like subtitles so this is nice 👍
After 2 months of no srn content, I admittedly insta clicked on this video 😂😂
lmfao
love the voices in this one, i'm guessing this is based off the book because i'm a little unfamiliar with some of this like the convo between thorin and gandalf....
Thank you, and yes, with the Tolkien and Harry Potter videos, I will always base them off of the books; the excerpt between Gandalf and Thorin in particular is from Unfinished Tales.
My favorite Dwarf in Middle Earth ❤
agreed!! but balin is a close second
Something just occurred to me.... Bootstrap has not only the curse of the Aztec, but also Davy Jones The flying Dutchman. Does that mean that in the events of the Black Pearl Bootstrap he had both courses placed upon him. Or did Davy Jones override the Aztec curse with his own curse? I would like to believe the idea that when Davy Jones came upon Bootstrap and offered him a deal, which was he would break the Curse upon him but in exchange Bootstrap served the Dutchman.
THE AZTEC GODS 🇲🇽 The Aztec Gods who cursed the 882 gold pieces delivered to Cortes (the cursed treasure that transformed Barbossa and his pirates into skeletons, in the moonlight) were: Chantico: Goddess of fire and protector of treasures. Xiuhtecutli: God of fire, husband of Chantico. Huitzilopochtli: God of war. Tezcatlipoca: The god of the night.
Calypso deserved that actually. I really don't feel bad for her. Alot of people see Davy Jones as a villain, yet if any guy was in his shoes, they'll feel same.
I honestly don’t think that Orlando Bloom looks anything like Stellan Skarsgård Yes I know that they mean that the characters look alike but that would imply to some degree that the actors look alike too They kept saying how Will looks like Bootstrap Bill but I just don’t see it
If i gotta choose, I’m gonna join Davy Jones, really want to know what kind of sea creature(s) i’ll become😂
This “curse” lore is almost as comparable to the “Malfestation” in the Soul Calibur games!
I'm confidant that Jack himself is cursed due to how many of his enemy's were/are cursed.
I feel like you are whispering can’t really hear you unless phone volume is blasting other than making your voice more apparent I love this video keep it up big dawg
This audio is a little too crisp
So... if you nead to sacrefise blod from everyone to end the curse what hapend when jack steals a coin in the end of the movie? And if bill turner was an imortall skeleton how did he die to join daivy jones crew?
best part about the curse is how the characters find loopholes on them. Like when David Jones had to go on land, so they left a bucket with sea water for him to stand on.
What if he fell over ? Would he start shaking and jumping around like a fish on land ?
@@pajalixd4016maybe fade away into dust like salazars man did when he walked on land
How did he get from the boat to the bucket though?
@@szithaanu9934 if you look behind him there’s a series of buckets leading up to the one he’s standing in
yar this be a fine video yee better keep up the good work
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words.
I still remember playing the opening mission to Pirates of the Caribbean Online, what a memory to have
It's funny how Ron was one of the students who didn't get petrified because his last name sounds a lot like "weasel" and that's one of the only animals immune to the death stare of a cockatrice which is extremely similar to a basilisk in almost every way but they alter in appearance a little.
Yeah, that's interesting.
POTCO LORE MENTIONED
not rly a harry potter fan but alot of these creatures are also in mythology so that's cool 👌🏼
ye I always wondered how werewolves came to be if the person needed to be bitten, like where the infection started from, who was the first and etc. I like how u brought in mythology to form a possible reason/origin 👍
When I start discussing Werewolves, I mention the story of Lycaon, King of Arcadia, who's tale is among some of the first concerning Lycanthropes. However, I also state that this character appears in the Epic of Gilgamesh, this is untrue. The story of Lycaon is after the Epic of Gilgamesh, which is the first recorded tale to include a Werewolf.
Do you plan on making videos on the creatures in different categories?
I might; it was certainly something that crossed my mind, though I don't want to promise anything.
10:50 also why is the quintaped so scary in this image lmao
😂😂😂
did not know basilisks could potentially change shape to fit a certain space but it makes alot more sense because it would have tpo squeeze thru pipes 😭😭
I see a Harry Potter video, I click.
ps1 hagrid goated fr
True.
lmao facts
lmao i actually laughed at the fading image of PS1 hagrid
He’d wrestle a fully grown dragon for fun.
That raises an interesting question. If the Trident contained all the curses, would Will die when the Trident breaks? Considering how his curse works, the crew had to cut his heart out as a part of the curse. Knowing the human body, it can't live without the heart inside the body and if his heart is still inside the chest when the curse is lifted, then technically he dies on the spot.
Yeah, I intitially thought perhaps he sensed something and immediately reinserted his heart with the help of his crew, but if I'm not mistaken, Elizabeth had his heart in her possession, and I don't think he could have gotten to the island she was on fast enough. I think this is something that the film writers didn't fully plan out, along with a lot of other things. Although I enjoy all of the films, I agree with the fans that criticize the last two because there are some things that aren't fully thought out. Thanks for commenting and watching the video, maybe there is an explanation I just haven't thought of.
The Flying Dutchman wasn't a curse, the curse was the one Davy Jones placed on the chest and his heart. The enchantment or blessings of the Dutchman is what brings Davy Jones back to life, as that ship and Duty was given to him. After the trident breaking freed Will from Davy Jone's curse
Davy Jones, and his crew, were cursed by Calypso after Jones abandons his duties aboard the Dutchman ferrying souls. Yes, the ship itself wasn't a curse, the crew was cursed.
i don't know but these things look awesome. 👌🏼
don't always watch the random nerd vids but wish u did a voice for the wights, i've always enjoyed the voice acting in these.
Still sad to me that the barrow-wights were never in the lotr trilogy....
true the only 1 i've watched was fellowship but I think that's the 1 with the wights in it in the books judging off this vid
It's crazy how this spooky land is right near the Shire in the grand scheme of things
The art for the barrow-wights is amazing! There are a lot of talented artists in the LotR community, especially on DeviantArt.
