    I'd like to know what happened to the dead spirits that inhabited the Dead Marshes after the ring was destroyed. We know what happened to the dead under the mountain, what about those in the swamp? Were they finally released? There were even elveses and orcses. Did they go to the Halls? I didn't even know orcs had souls. Where do their souls go? What happens to them?

    The Nazgul are my favorite villains, I was always terrified of those black cloaks and skeletal features, not to mention their voices. Even in the animated versions they had a terrible metallic tone to their voices that just cut through you as froze my blood. Scary what you said that some in the future may have tried to resurrect them through magic or science. Interesting. I do wonder where all their “weaknesses” are from and if truly Tolkien’s ideas. Somehow pain, cold, sound and such doesn’t seem like it would bother something DEAD, and alive only through dark magic. Why would they get cold?? Water seems like it would just piss them off by washing away their cloaks and horses, but I don’t think it truly hurt them. They may have to dry their cloaks or get new ones-(it’s been 4000 years, come on now guys you can afford a new cloak) Sunshine seems like it would weaken them and blind them certainly, like any evil creature. Fire? I don’t know, again they might be annoyed at it burning off their clothes but if it could hurt or destroy them then they aren’t immortal. Why wouldn’t someone just shoot them with burning arrows? Same with the various weapons, why not just kill them with those? They’ve been around 4000 years-wouldn’t someone have stabbed them with an Elven blade or something? Smell? Well they don’t actually HAVE noses, yet that one Nazgul was SNIFFING them in the part where they were hiding under a tree and they’re being hunted. So that’s a faux pas for sure. I doubt they’d be offended by you sharting yourself once you see one jump out from behind a tree. They’re smell is probably selective and only used for hunting. They’re dead, and decomposed flesh reeks, if they could smell themselves then, well, they’re probably going to get a subscription to Duke Cannon for each other’s Christmas gifts. 🤷🏼

    Very well done! Very well. I've read the Tolkien's works since first finding "The Hobbit" in my school library when I was 12. That was in 1972. I round the "Rings" trilogy in a bookstore a year later and I've read all or part of all of these almost every year since. I finally got my hands on the "Silmarillian" a few years later. "The Book of Lost Tales" came along as well. The "Guide to Middle Earth" has it's interesting way of looking at it all but the Appendices do more for me. This has been very nicely put together. Your artwork is especially pleasing, and your hard work and effort show. You have a lot to be proud of!

    They weren’t just kings. The kings thing comes from the movies. In the books he said they were great leaders of men. Yea, a king is a leader but you know who else is a leader? A politician who looks out for the small folk. The town healer that cures the sick. A Warrior that is loved by his men but feared and respected by his enemies.

      Calm down a king is a leader. It's just a euphemism. It's not that big a deal. The Burger King is a king but he wasn't proclaimed king in some official ceremony. It's a euphemism. The Witch King is called the Witch King, but this is just a title, he's not the official king of anything. King and leader are the same thing.

      @@somethingfromnothing8428 I think the Witch King title was given to him by the people of Arnor or one of the divided kingdoms of Arnor. This name wasn't self applied like the names Morgoth and Sauron were derogatory titles originally. I believe Witch King was just a placeholder name because they didn't know what exactly the Witch King was, they just knew their was an evil sorcerer who was trying to take over. It could have been Sauron back again, one of the Nazgul or a evil human sorcerer.

    Although by no means proof, as recently pointed out on Darth Gandalf's channel covering this same topic, the fact Khamul is referred to as the Easterling might strongly imply he was the only one from that direction, whether it be Rhun or realms further east (perhaps as far away as the Red Mountains). There seems to be an allusion to Khamul being akin to someone like Attila the Hun or perhaps Genghis or Kublai Khan. I think this line of thinking makes some sense then that Khamul would be second in command because he once ruled the second largest territory after Angmar. It would also make sense that the remaining Nazgul would be of lesser renown than Khamul, but yes certainly if the line of thinking that Khamul was uniquely Eastern among the 9, then it would follow logically at least two of the others probably came from Harad and/or Far Harad while at least two more came from the North and two others came from Numenor.

    There are some mistakes: like Frodo and Sam met Shelob in Cirith Ungol. Cirith Ungol means Spider Pass. Ungolianth was the matriarch of all evil spiders. Shelob was a good enough guard of the pass on her own.

    Please just take this as constructive criticism. First off, I absolutely enjoyed this, and I learned a lot more than I figured I would tbh. But the one real complaint I would make is that your voice sounds very subdued to the point of being robotic, you may be using a speech AI though, in which case it can't be helped, but if it's you speaking - I'd have enjoyed it more if you sounded just like maybe 15% more enthusiastic about and interested in what you're discussing.

Forget AI art entirely, unless you have the time and talent to clean it up and make it look good. The really good lore channels use handmade artwork and credit the artists. They also use their own voice, which they've honed with a script and with practice. If you don't trust your own voice, then take the time to learn how speak to an audience. Also take the time to edit your slides so the transition is smooth and matches the dialogue (and lose the sudden yellow captions). Lastly, actually read and study the source material. If you really care about whatever it is you're expounding on, you'll take the time to get it right.
