This week, we look at the second half of The Children of Húrin Chapter 6 and discuss the manifestation of Morgoth’s curse. We discuss Morgoth’s shadow… this “mist” that operates curiously like the One Ring, weaponizing Túrin’s pride against him right when he has the chance to accept grace and redemption. We also look at:
Why Beleg is the only messenger to keep searching for Túrin when all others gave up, and the true power of his friendship.
The moment Túrin realizes his own pride and shortcomings… and does nothing about it.
The points where Tolkien reveals Morgoth’s shadow taking over Túrin right when he is about to repent.
How Túrin’s own pride creates the open wound that Morgoth’s curse infects and manipulates.
