Eru Ilúvatar, The One - Epic Character History

Eru Ilúvatar was God in Tolkien’s works, and though sometimes He played active and passive roles alike, many of His deeds influenced and shaped Arda and Middle-earth. Thank you so much for watching, let me know your thoughts on Eru in the comments below! As always, a great thanks to the online artists whose visual works made this video possible! If you are one of the artists, please let me know and I will post your name and a link to your work in this description!
