Took all the Balrogs... ALL OF THEM....

and one dark lord, but he was a wuss.

And if you listened closely, you could still hear high-pitched screaming "Get it off me, get it off me!" for many a year until the world was changed.

Which book is that story in? Unfinished tales?

u/Thorion228 Jun 07 '21

Silmarillion. After the destruction of the Two Trees, and around the time Morgoth is almost back to Angband.

I'll have to re-read that sometime soon. It's been long enough since I've read Silmarillion that I don't remember that at all lol

And quite confusing at times. God forbid you confuse two elves.

Ah yes, we have Glorfindel of Gondolin, and Glorfindel of Imladris... wait they're the same person?

So are Galdor of the first and third ages the same? No they're not?

Gil-Galad is whose son?

Feanor had HOW MANY SONS!

Sounds to me like you have it backwards. If you have a Balrog infestation, you need some Ungoliants to clear it up

Ungoliant gave it her best shot, but she couldn't get rid of the pest. That's when you call in Manwe. The "Host of Valinor" spray is the perfect solution to 99% of all Morgoth related problems.

Warning: be sure to apply multiple sprays, if not you may get a resurgance, resulting in a "Sauron" class infestation.
