The Life of Fëanor | Tolkien Explained

Fëanor is considered the greatest of the Noldor. He not only created the Palantíri and the Fëanorian lamps, but also the Silmarils - his greatest creation, and the namesake of The Silmarillion. In this video, we track his life and travels, from his birth in Aman to becoming the great craftsman - from becoming King of the Noldor to leading his people in their exile - and finally, his fatal battle with the balrogs of Morgoth. *Hit subscribe - and the bell!* Nerd of the Rings on PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/NerdoftheRings -------------- All content falls under fair use: any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work.
