I have some doubt if by chance, when Bilbo does the way back home from the Lone Mountain alongside Gandalf and Beorn´s companionship too - untill he went back near the Carrock where he lived there - but he actually passed north of Thranduil´s domains at Mirkwood, by some reason (which doesn´t make sense as both Gandalf and Bilbo were favoured by the King Elve but it might have been about Beorn by chance yet it´s never properly stated why they avoided the safe-keeped path on the Elves domains), so they went to the northern side of the forest borderline of the southern side of Grey Mountains and kinda seems approached the Whitered Heath a lot and... well it seems there were nasty things living there which were avoided by Gandalf and Beorn pressence guarding Bilbo´s return, BUT all is left ambiguously and scarcely developed by Tolkien there going much fast-pacing towards reaching the end of the story with very little details there. So my question is, did Bilbo passed nearby the Whitered Heath by chance when going back to his home after leaving the Lone Mountain when passing between the Grey Mountains and Mirkwood, or was something I just guessed on by mistake
It's unfortunate that the dwarves couldn't reproduce as fast as Men or Elves. They weathered so many hardships and battles, Middle Earth would've been better off with more of them.
I disagree dwarves are physically ugly amd greedy/selfish/envious. Elves need to reproduce more to spread beauty, honor, honesty, intelligence, and knowledge of magical/herbal medicine. The less dwarves the better.
The most heinous issue on Caradhras is the atmosphere builded when passing there as the vage eerie dark information is told by the Fellowship members when discussing about some unknown ancient evil creatures in the world on their own agendas besides Sauron´s one, then the fell-voices in the air (which weren´t Saruman´s spells on distance as the movies set on), and finally that quote on Caradhras being EVER EVIL even BEFORE the nasty Orcs came into the Misty Mountains region, which... makes you wonder, what was all that about the true nature on that evilness there. (Could be linked with the Stone Giants on some wilder versions than the ones on the High Pass region, or something else?)
This would be my ultimate place of true horror. Utumno. Nothing could beat it. It took the Valar, and as far as I know the Valar that could kick butt, themselves to breach that great fortress. Angband was but a lesser fortress. He took the most beautiful sentient creatures in Ea and made Orcs. Not exactly an Easy Bake Oven feat. And when the Valar raided the joint it had so many horrible and evil creatures present that a number of Balrogs (many according to Tolkien) got away. Let that sink in. The Valar were trying to clock the most evil things there and Balrogs made it to the exit and escaped! Can you imagine what occupied them?
The Whitered Heath is such a very dreadfull yet awesome interesting place which sadly Tolkien didn´t developed much well, however there is something eerie about all the evilness lurking there and on the surrounding Grey Mountains and the Gundabad Mountains and nearby Angmar Kingdom domains as if all of them were the actual remains conveying all the true nature of the original Iron Mountains just right were Utumno was supposed to be laying on across them somewhere on the extreme north-pole areas under the ever present ice-cape but... neverthless also seems that some parts of Utumno had happened to be UNDER the mountains too, so... maybe those areas on Angmar, Gundabad and the Grey Mountains - including the Whithered Heath of course, tend to kept that nasty reputation about some sort of evil-traces left by Morgoth´s wereabot past times living there and which maybe some sort of something unknown remained there!!
Though indeed Sauron seems he kinda felt more on himself on his greatest time on his personal domains at Mordor and at Barad-ur Tower-Fortess, there seems that there was never ever actually a better implemented strategically and efficent domain than when he was on Dol-Guldur under the Necromancer identity, and he kinda schemed A LOT safely there!! Furtherlymore, as his true identity came to be known so late and even then the attack on his domains was also comming so late as he was moving into Mordor anyways, and even them he came to regain the fortess on his domain under a Nazgul minion and well it kinda kept working on and just falling down a few days after Sauron´s defeat on Mordor, under Galadriel´s attack. So Dol-Guldur actually deserves more credit than it´s usually think of it as just the B fortess-stronghold of Sauron, when actually worked even better than Mordor itself!
Hmmm, you seem to be concentrating on the 'darker' aspects of the Legendarium, Lore Seeker. This is unique. A Sub duly earned from me then. Even the Number '7' is Cursed.

100 percent Moria.

Dwarves suck.
Ereg Gorgoroth, the Old Forest, the Ettenmoors, the Grey Mountains, and the Northern Wastes would be great for a Part 3.
Awesome input, I wrote it down

The Dead Marshes were inspired by Tolkien’s experience in World War I (bodies decaying in trenches, dead faces in mud and water).
Thats so sad. I'd imagine it was like the movie 1917, and probably far worse
8:52 "No, no birdses to eat. No crunchable birdses. We are famished! Yes! Famished we are, precious."
The comments are as entertaining and masterful as the video, itself! I could watch and read for hours. Thanks, travelers! 🤜🤛

Very nice! Not sure if you're AI or not, but this was pretty good production.
nice storytelling

Where did you get the awesome pictures from?
Thank you! I made most of them myself
How about Ered Gorgoroth and Helcaraxë.
I think that the most terrifying place in Middle Earth was Utumno
The Shire's sewer treatment plant. Evil beyond belief exists where 7 meals a day passes through a hobbits digestive system.
😂

I've thoroughly tested topics and the 'darker' topics spark more interest among the public. Thanks for your sub, sir.
Why do you repeat the same damn thing sometimes? 😂
What do you mean?
