Magic in Lord of the Rings and Tolkien's Universe - LotR Lore
How does magic in #LotR and Tolkien's universe work? #Tolkien cast a spell over his readers, creating fascination for his world over generations. His idea was to create his own mythology, which also includes supernatural elements. Still for a fantasy novel The Lord of the Rings is still reactively grounded. In this video we explore how magic in Tolkien's lore and stories work. LotR is ofc famous for its artefacts like the One Ring and 19 great Rings of Power, but there is more in LotR lore: like prophecies, wraith world (or the Unseen) Balrogs, the Doors of Durin and actual spells.

Mistakes:
- The sword that Frodo draws on (is it "on"? Prepositions are not my strength =/) Amon Sûl/the Weathertop is not Sting. It's one of the Dúnedain swords/daggers from the Barrow-downs. Frodo gets Sting from Bilbo when they reach Rivendell.
- The stress in Valar and Maiar is on the first syllable. I often say it wrong =/
