#hareth

It was so fun figuring out a design for this woman - I decided to give her clothes of the Haladin, which I wasn´t sure about at the start, but happy I did now!

Hareth ♡

+ another hood colour under the cut because I was extremely indecisive about this one lol

Note: just for personal reference, also I have spatial disorders and am bad at estimating measurements so I hope this makes sense

I’ll do some elves next with probably even worse estimations

Húrin: 172 cm/five feet eight inches

Morwen: 180 cm/five feet, eleven inches

Aerin: 175 cm/five feet almost nine inches

Huor: 190cm/six feet three inches

Túrin: 186 cm/Six feet one inch

Niënor: 176 cm/five feet nine inches

Rían: 167 cm/five feet six inches

Tuor: 193 cm/six feet four inches

Notes:

-Aerin was shorter than Húrin until age fifteen, most of her growth spurts were later; he was very disappointed as this officially made him the shortest of him and his cousins and other relatives of that generation.

-Lalaith would have been short like her father had she lived with both siblings and Morwen being taller than her

-Húrin is a couple centimeters or about an inch taller than his mother. Galdor, his father is about 183 centimeters or six feet

There's truth to the bawdy wives' adage that men swear fealty by bending their knees and women by opening their legs. 5 times in the First Age a bride of one of the lords of the Edain was ceremonially bedded by her new Elven liege lord, and one time it happened in the Third Age instead.

Bridgerton couples {book & TV verse} - Gregory's pov

Take Galdor and Hareth, the father and mother of Húrin and Huor. They get married in Brethil (Hareth’s home), in a big double wedding (Galdor’s older sister and Hareth’s older brother also marry each other), at an incredibly young age - they’re nineteen and sixteen respectively, though they don’t have kids until they’re in their twenties. Hareth has to move to Hithlum, away from all of her family, while she’s still a teenager. When her kids are still fairly young, she has to send them off to Brethil to be fostered by their uncle according to Haladin custom, so she’s separated from her kids as well as parents and other relatives.

Then, while the boys are in Brethil, the Battle of Sudden Flame happens. The times of relative safety are over. Galdor’s father and his younger brother are both killed. Only a couple years later, they learn that their sons (teenagers, 16 and 13) fought in a battle against orcs and are missing, presumed dead.

A year later their sons return under mysterious circumstances and will say nothing about where they’ve been.

And only three years after that, Galdor is killed in defence of Eithel Sirion, the same place his father and brother died defending, and his son Húrin - only 21 years old - leads the counterattack.

Hareth has now lost her husband, father-in-law, brother-in-law, and spent a year thinking her kids were dead or worse, in addition to having been separated from all the rest of her family since her mid-teens - and her son, barely out of his teens, is now fighting in the same war that took everyone else from her and is called the head of the House of Hador.

And then, nine years later when she’s 51 years old, her father Halmir dies in Brethil, and a year after that comes the Nirnaeth Arnoediad and the occupation of Hithlum, and one of her sons is missing-presumed-dead for the second time in her life and her other son is dead. And after that all the tragedies of Húrin’s family.
