In the first half of Chapter 9 of The Silmarillion, \u201cOf the Flight of the Noldor\u201d, Melkor and Ungoliant leave the dead Trees behind them and continue their crime spree in Formenos. F\xebanor goes full-emo and rallies the Noldor to pursue his Black Foe back to Middle-earth, swearing a terrible oath in the process. We revisit M\xedriel in Mandos, and also discuss how a Silmaril is like a bite of ribeye.
