My favorite Silmarillion deaths
1. Finrod. My DUDE killed a werewolf with his TEETH after breaking his own chains. Also had the courage to song-battle Sauron (who was part of the choir that SANG THE WORLD INTO EXISTENCE). Nerves of steel I love this man.
2. On the subject of Sauron. Died cause he was too busy laughing to escape God's Wrath (pathetic, genuinely pathetic)
3. Fingolfin: CHALLENGED THE DEVIL TO A 1V1. Yeah he died in the process, but still. Nerves. Of. Steel.
4. Maglor & Daeron: Schrödinger's deaths. Are they even dead? Maybe they survive to modern day idfk.
5. Crispy Amrod: This death amuses me. What it feels like to sleep past your alarm core. Also the inherent tragedy of being treated as your twin's other half for all your life then being separated.
6. GLORFINDEL!!! Death was tragic and badass. Someone get this man a Hair Tie. Also love that the fanon reason he doesn’t join the fellowship is that he Glows Too Much for a stealth mission.
7. Saeros: Fell off a cliff while running away from the guy he hatecrimed. Hate him.
8. Maeglin: literally prophesized to fall off a cliff.
9. Elwing: Why do so many people fall off cliffs in this book. She's a bird now though. Good for her i guess.
10. Celebrimbor: also known as Celebrimbanner. Respect for holding up for so long under torture for like two years. Slay (got slain).
