so it really is like scripture with people quoting different facts at each other or quoting from gospels, ie accepted writings about tolkien
i was foolish and wrote something from real life and in my own wordsđč

Gosh, ever read The Silmarillion, thatâs scripture at the start. And then you get into his letters and itâs retcons for daaaayyyys. And the insane fans will just rip you to shreds if you havenât read the letters.
Iâve read The Silmarillion, The Hobbit, and The Lord of The Rings; Iâm not gonna read his freaking letters too, or his sonâs.
If youâre able to, get a copy of The Soddit and/or The Sellamillion by Adam Roberts. Theyâre hilarious parodies that I love too, I still quote The Soddit. Donât mind the insane fans, theyâre ridiculous people lol
