[MsXizan]

Hell no, Morgoth had no intention of keeping his promises!

[astroadventures]

It's such a peaceful sensation listening to you tell these stories. I really like them and I really hope you keep doing them! Thank you😊

[laurahill]

I'm still reading through my copy of Fall of Gondolin. So many parts have brought me to tears already!

[faizansyed]

This will be my bed time story as I was going to sleep. Thank you as always for the videos!

Ecthelion of the Fountain single-handedly slayed 3 Balrogs before loosing his life slaying Gothmog, Lord of the Balrogs. This was after hours of fighting and being wounded, Ecthelion needs some love! Even the cry of his name made the entire attacking army stop momentarily. Ecthelion! Destroyer of Balrogs! Pretty sure the Gondolins survivers would never have made it out without Ecthelion.

Great video, The elves that stayed behind must have been fierce and very brave to have faced the entire threat melkor. There sacrifice gave the precious time needed to allow Tuor to get the rest of the elves to safety.

Another great video, I've been waiting all week for part 2

Probably my favorite story of the silmarillion!😄

[KTChamberlain]

Balrogs riding Dragons? Holy shit that's badass. I remember Peter Jackson mentioning that in passing in one of the commentaries of the Hobbit Trilogy Extended Editions, but he didn't mention that happening in the Fall of Gondolin.

Ive lost track how many times ive watched/listened to your vids. Sometimes I'll listen to them as I fall asleep because your voice is so soothing. You are my favorite LOTR lore YouTuber. Cant wait for next week's!

[tomcreed]

The artwork for your videos are brilliant work 👍👍 I've been waiting all week for the 2nd video... Great!

[BrianEthridge-wgko]

Hey Yoysan, I haven't heard A Men of the West video in a long time! It still amazes me how much your voice lends to the store you tell! I think JRR Tolkien himself would enjoy listening to you because you do that Good of a job. Merry Christmas brother! Thanks for the gift of narration on such wonderful stories and the passion you put into your videos!

[kevinwessels]

Nice to finally know the full story of Gondolin. Keep up the good work my friend!

[dannysonbareh]

Always was, is and will be the greatest story from the whole legendarium

[rizendor]
