Silmarillion 2026 » Episode 8 » Chapter 4 » Of Thingol and Melian (EP282 REVISITED)

In episode 8 of our epic, chapter-by-chapter Silmarillion journey, we’ll explore Chapter 4, “Of Thingol and Melian.”
With Melkor imprisoned in Mandos and the Elves on the way to the Blessed Realm, we pause to consider a BRIEF love story that lays the groundwork for a FAR MORE EPIC love story later in The Silmarillion. Join us!
