Wizards and Warriors animated fantasy documentary lore video series on the world of Middle-Earth - Lord of the Rings continues with a our first video on the First Age, as we discuss the creation of the world of Tolkien, its powers and races and we see how and why the Elves became the enemies of the Dark Lord Melkor, who they called Morgoth, after their leader Fëanor cursed him for killing his father Finwë and stealing his prized possession - Silmarils. In this episode we see how the evil first rose in the world of Arda and will talk about Ungoliant and other evils, about the Valar and Maiar, about the Elves and their sub-groups - Vanyar, Ñoldor, Teleri, and Avari. About the Middle Earth and Valinor - Aman.

TH-cam algorithm kinda dislikes us right now, but you can turn this around by liking, commenting and sharing. Please, do that. :-)
The algorithm must be a secret servant of Morgoth.
Oof 😅
And in the first age Mogroth created the you tube algorithm to plague the pepoles of arda
does youtube explain themselves or is this just a blatant attempt to keep all the ad money for themselves?
You got to e kidding me why in the world are they trying to strangle content?
No matter how goth you are, Melkor is Morgoth.
😲
Bro really had "goth" in his name.
What an edgelord.
🤯
🫥
... Take your thumbs up and go.
Why the Elves became the enemies of Melkor/Morgoth: Simple - Melkor wants to destroy everything he didn't create because he didn't get the Flame Imperishable to breathe true life into beings.
In short, because Morgoth is a big baby having a temper tantrum.
Very Putin
All pure evil villains are big babies having a temper tantrum
In the words of Death from Supernatural, Morgoth is a bratty kid with a temper tantrum.
It's interesting how in most stories about elves and men there's usually some single war or petty politics that divides the two races, but in Tolkien's lore it's interwoven into the very creation myth of the two races. The elves believe that men are put above them in the eyes Iluvatar since "men will play a great role in Ilvutar's final song" and that the world, a beautiful and wonderous place, would be their birthright which the elves resented bitterly. Meanwhile the race of men was like "Oh, so you guys get eternal youth, great gifts from the Valar, and incredible magic, but somehow YOU all are the put upon ones. Boo frickity hoo."
It's very much like two siblings squabbling over who's got it better
The elder one resenting the younger for being distant daddy's favourite, and the younger one resenting the elder for being foster aunts' and uncles' favourite.
I like this reading
Had you thrown in the dwarves as the middle child, I would not have objected in the least.
@@CodeRonin42 dwarves are adopted cousins
@@CodeRonin42 *adopted child
The algorithm is a shallow and capricious god. And, can't say why, but I get the sensation that you aren't very satisfied with its work.
Having finished reading the Silmarilon last spring, I can't wait for this series! Oh Almighty Algorithm, small as we may be, hear our prayers, and keep these videos!
disappointed now?
arent you glad you read the Silmarillion? Literally none of it is in Amazons dribble......
Rings of Power is trash
@@MrSneaksful he is talking about this video series not rings of power
@@Mr_AlterEagle Oh, not the amazon series, but the W&W series! Haven't watched a single episode of the former, actually, and don't really intend to. So much wasted potential...
Feanor made them, but...
"And Varda hallowed the Silmarils, so that thereafter no mortal flesh, nor hands unclean, nor anything of evil will might touch them, but it was scorched and withered; and Mandos foretold that the fates of Arda, earth, sea, and air, lay locked within them..."
"But who shall deny Yavanna? And did not the light of the Silmarils come from her work in the beginning?"
“Speak, oh Noldo, yeah or ney?”
The Wars of Morgoth were so impossibly massive, they would be incredible if put to film.
John Baxter, true - but Amazon shouldn't be allowed to get anywhere near these incredible stories!
I'd love to eventually see the Silmarillion & unfinished tales brought together on screen. Problem is there's WAAAYYYY too much material to combine into several movies. In fact, that'd be the greatest disservice of all. It'd have to be what Disney+ is doing for Marvel and Star Wars: divide the different stories into a bunch of tv series. Morgoth, Feanor and his children, Beren and Luthien, Turin Turambar, Elrond and Elros, the War of Wrath, others. It's gotta be done right. Can't take too many liberties for the screen (I'm looking at you, Amazon...)
For now, the Tolkien family won't sell the rights to The Silmarillion and the other works. Hopefully it stays that way until someone worthy emerges who can do it well.
It would be liken to seeing Terminators riding Tyrannosaurs into battle
@@Loe_Jist Amazon's Rings of Power shows how little they care, all they see is an IP and a label to latch onto to spread a specific message and the destruction of Tolkien's ideals that they have disdain for. Much like how Melkor has disdain for the ways of Eru.
They are on such a scale it would impressive just to see it animated. I can barely imagine the valor coming to aid the people of middle earth and then the breaking the land by Iru.
The coolest thing about Tolkien will always be that he imagined Middle Earth being created in a huge musical number!
“Eru Iluvitar: Superstar”
and the funniest thing will always be that Melkors first great sin was being that annoying asshole refusing to sing along with everyone else and instead sing "SMOOOOOOOKE ON THE WAAAAAAAATEEEEEER!" really off key.
No he didn't. These themes were pure music in an abstract timeless hall. There was 'number.'
@@thuzan117 I am in awe at your level of humor
Morgoth invented Mumble Rap
Thank you so much for starting to cover the first age, you have made this halfling happy. Please cover unnumbered tears 😊. Also, a nice sidenote to add is that when Feanor was making the Silmarills, he asked Galadriel 3 times for a lock of her hair to be used in the creation of them but she refused him 3 times, making her gift to Gimli far more important and beautiful by giving him three locks of hair
This has to be the best fantasy world of all time
It is.
The story of Melkor making his discordant music in the beginning is just like any rebellious teenager blaring music from his room that his parents think is crap and too loud
The Silmarillion is really funny sometimes..
Morgoth, mightiest of the valar, visits Feanor at home.
Feanor: *just shuts the door and yells "Go away I dont buy anything"
No, thank you. We don’t want any more visitors, well-wishers, or distant relations
...later..Feanor tries to go to Morgoths home and fight him but gets jumped by Balrogs and is mortally wounded, at the steps of Morgoths stronghold, didnt even get to fight him. Also, Ecthelion of the Fountain fought 1 vs 1 with that same Balrog, Gothmog the lord of all balrogs and Ecthelion slayed Gothmog as well as 3-4 other Balrogs. Feanor was overrated and caused more hurt than help. Yes silmarils, yes, thats all. How many of his own people did he and his brothers kill? or trap in their oath? Worthless, that was the point Tolkien was making, beware hastily oaths made in anger for one.
@@MrSneaksful Feanor certainly is a bad person but his feats shouldn't be denied. He fought multiple Balrogs including Gothmog alone.
@@MrSneaksful Feanor was angry that morgoth had killed his father. Saying that he's bad because his speech inspired his brothers to follow him to their deaths is a very simplistic and disingenuous interpretation.
Feanor: "GET OFF MY LAWN!"
Feanor's oath still gives me chills.
To me, it was the Prophecy of the North.
When Mandos speaks, shit gets real.
I like how you declared hate and war against the algorithm just like Faenor against Morgoth.
More lord of the rings is always amazing, the algorithm is clearly a servant of the great enemy
The algorithm is morgoths work
It’s unfortunate Tolkien never finished developing the other side of Middle Earth, still a vast land yet to be known.
That will be explored even if Amazon refuses to.
Such a wasted opportunity for Amazon. I wanted to see the tragedy of the good men in the South and East and their failure to prevent their land’s corruption
@@haircutdeluxe That's exactly why so many people are upset. How lazy they could be doing this? Shame shame shame...
Four continents. Valinor, Middle Earth, the Southern Continent, and the Land of the Sun in the furthermost East.
And that's just what Tolkien mentions. His maps were... simple.
Who knows what lives out there? I believe Tolkien stated that the Numenoreans discovered and explored the other continents, but I seem to recall those lands were empty of Men.
Valar and Maiar could pass between the Outer Void and Arda (Melkor did without permission, Tulkas with. Melkor actually once hid out in the Void!). Things lived in Arda, perhaps even before the first Valar arrived (Bombadil). Things from the Void could enter, like Ungoliant. Things deep under the ground were older than even the Balrog of Moria, per Gandalf, who didn't want to elaborate.
The Valar didn't seem to poke around much, perhaps because they'd not only been there, they did there. They made it. But their... further disinterest let a lot of things happen that shouldn't have, like Ungoliant literally hanging out in the south of Valinor within sight of the hallowed lands. Or perhaps the Valar simply didn't have the power to police Arda anymore.
A good trick, I found, is to count the leagues between locations given by Tolkien, then find the scale of his maps. Overlaying a similar map of Northeastern Europe, The Shire is out England way, Gondor around Italy, Mordor somewhere around Asia Minor. Valinor 2nd age was about where North and South America are, but y'all can do the math on that, I haven't since I was a kid.
The bit of Middle Earth we know of is a tiny piece of what is out East and South! Hildorien should be far, far out to the East, literally as far as China. It took forever for the elves to walk to the shore of the western ocean. Hopping across Westernesse doesn't account for that time span.
Always meant to make an Arda globe.
@@haircutdeluxe That would be cool to see, but you know there would be just as many people whining about whatever they did with that unwritten story - and I'll bet it would be all the same people whining that they didn't write about those regions.
It would be nice if they touched on those lands, maybe even if they did whole story arcs on them. But it really wouldn't feel like Tolkien if they didn't include elves and at least some well known characters from the Legendarium. But again, we already know there are many who will claim it doesn't feel like Tolkien no matter what Amazon does
Please continue doing more on the first 2 ages. PLENTY has been done about the 3rd age (much as we all love it). And, understandably, there's only so much source material to go off of for the first 2 but they're the most fascinating in my opinion; probably for that very reason.
Very good video! But I must say that the fight between Melkor and Ungoliant took not place in front of Angband but in the West in the land near the fjord of Drengist. Melkor screamed out and the Balrogs came to help him. Lammoth was the region called.
Not the only mistake, by a long shot.
Deep lore of Middle-Earth, inject this into my veins.
Ooh boy here we go, First Age time. While I admit I’m not an avid fan or consumer of the Legendarium stuff, First Age stuff has always fascinated me on a lore level because of how in-depth it is as being the origin of everything.
but it is simple and childish....I never liked lord of the rings....I watch this videos only to support the channel....but reading tolkin was fine as a kid but as a grown up it is simple world of black and white....and just like in the real world last century and today east is portrayed as evil and west as paradise with middle earth in problems.....never understood why grown people like it soo much when it is soo simple....try Mo Jen books...."Tired of life and death" is one of his best works....there is nuance in characters....but in lord of the rings there is only greed and evil urging it or pure good...and the worst part of the story of the before and during first age is that no one has realized that Eru iluvatar said to Melkor his disruption is the plan of Eru iluvatar. Eru iluvatar also made Melkor the strongest one....13 valar needed to win over one....and he gave melkor ambition, greed and everything else...that wasnt balanced creation.....Eru iluvatar is like god people on earth believe in...a piece of s..t...melkor is pandoras box and a gift from god
The Zeroeth Age, as the Powers fought to build the world...there's a story.
@@n.v.9000 you're pathetic. Compared to most fantasy stories, Middle Earth isn't simple. It also isn't allegorical. You make it an allegory, that fault is on you. Aside from that, the author you mentioned doesn't even write compelling fantasy.
Hearing this in the narrators voice from Kings & Generals gave me goose bumps. Ive listened to the Silmarillion to fall asleep for many years because my mom used to read it to me as a kid.
FINALLY! The first Age! Keep it coming Wizards and Warriors! Even though this video is only 20 min long, it is already better than Rings of Power.
You're videos graphics have already help explain the different phases the world of arda goes through better than most I have seen on youtube, quality is top notch 👌
Really good to see a good quality Tolkien channel despite some rather painful pronunciations!
I’m noticing a pattern: the Valar screw up a lot! 😂😂
As all the others, this video is excellent. Keep doing this great job!
I love all this content. Please don't ever change. Fantasy has been all that doesn't let us down in life. Sometimes we all need an escape. So glad to see this genre is being taken seriously finally.
Epic representation of the oath of Fëanor! Can't wait for the Battle of Unnumbered Tears!!! Don't mind the algorithm, this is wonderful.
Love the art in the videos! ^^
Morgoth is almost as Evil as the Harfoots.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 God i hated those idiotic foots
"ECTHELION!!!!! For the Noldor!"
Keep up the great work Mellon
Read the Silmarillion twice now but this was still great to watch. Awesome presentation.
I can't wait for this! Bless you folks at Wizards & Warriors
I am so glad that you made a video on the first era! Great job!
I hope to see more documentaries on other fantasy universes particularly about Warcraft universe too
If you like Warcraft, you should check Warhammer Fantasy that is was based on. It is a much deeper and darker universe.
THE FIRST AGE WHOOOOO!!!!
Seriously, I like the Lord of the Rings and I love the hobbit, but the First Age of Arda is the time when stuff REALLY goes down!
Love this coverage of the early ages of Arda! I love the Sillmarillion - or Elves Behaving Badly, as I call it - so it's delightful to see videos covering that era! Can't wait to see what you do in the rest of the series! Thank you for sharing!
I love these videos, they're absolutely great. Happy to help in any small way I can. Thank you!
This is a great episode which gives a good cartographic view of the events in the Silmarillion! I am therefore really looking forward to watch the next episode. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the valor to craft and present us these series!
Very excited for the upcoming videos of the first age! Great video as always.
Love this content! Thanks so much for starting to cover the first age!
Melkor gave freely the treasures he had stolen to Ungoliant, yet her hunger demanded that he also give the Silmarils in his other hand, which he would never do. To get a truer sense of the terrible might of Ungoliant, it took an entire legion of Balrogs in which to drive her off. The number of which is debatable, but if a Legion is between 800-1000 combatants, then she killed a ton of them in their assault to drive her off. This makes sense, as Ungoliant then fled into the east, and in later ages, her carcass would form part of the foundations of Mordor, as she was literally a primordial spider of darkness, and would eventually spawn Shelob.
Good video. It's nice to see the whole map to get an idea of the speed and distances involved.
First age let’s goooo. Ready for the Nier Neith Arnoiniad
Love these realistic takes on the various fantasy worlds.
great channel, great summaries perfect work
Thank you for covering the 1st age ! It’s the heart and soul of his work.
Love this channel and content you're putting out, all. Well done!
Thank you for all the great videos!
Thanks for all the great content!
Loving this channel and series!
This is so well done!
Great vid! These are great because I am watching all the new shows!
Fantastic to see the series. Thank you and keep them coming!
Great video. I've always enjoyed your work on the other channels, and am exceptionally excited about the material on this channel.
Not a great video to anyone who pays attention. Ridiculous pronunciation (even internally inconsistent). Multiple text misquotes. Even made up a Valar at one point. Who the hell is "Tauras"?
Commenting to beat the algorithm. Great summary of the events, please continue videos about the First Age!
Amazing videos! Thank you so much for doing this !!
Absolutely briliant, thank you! It really upsets me that such well made video has so few views, the RNG Gods need to change their minds about your channel!
Excellent as always! Keep up the good work
I love this and I hope you will talk of the sons of Hurin
Sucks so much that the algorithm isn't giving you the publicity you deserve. Your videos are always of such consistant high quality.
Morgoth controls the algorithm
this was an incredibly good video!
Awesome video! You guys never cease to amaze! Keep up the amazing work
please dont stop the series or this channel!
i love these videos and i think the algo gods will eventually smile upon you. stay strong.
That was great! Thank you!
Nice work dude thanks
Love the intro!! Thanks brotha!
Can’t wait for the next video!
Thank you for making these videos. They're as fun to watch as the popular movies.
i crave more content like yours where as well as the lore essays, we have visuals and art to go with it to show us what each story and character looked like
Nice video as always
If the sponsor was NordVPN or BitDefender, you could’ve said something along the lines of “while Feanor couldn’t protect the Silmarils from getting stolen by Morgoth, you however can protect your personal information from being stolen by the Dark Lords of the internet!”
great video, thank you for these
Wow as a true Tolkien fan who has read The Silmarillion this is amazing! I like the intense music and how Morgoth looks in this. Thank you so much for this
Oh so you're a Tolkien fan? Name every type of Pipeweed.
Thank you for illustrating the silmarillion so well.
Brilliant! Been waiting for this.
I'm dying to see the stories of Tuor, Beren and the rest.
Great stuff indeed. First Age has always been my favourite… keep them up 😄
I love these videos so much!
Thanks for this epic coverage of the Silmarillion
Very interesting, thanks!
awesome video as always
Awesome video guys. Keep up the good work 👏
Great to see the first age. Got some of the greatest battles and stories so should be a perfect match for the channel.
Awesome art as always!
YESSSS!!! I asked for this on the very first Wizards and Warriors video. And now it is here.
Thank you!!!
Great job as always!!!
Again, a really compelling presentation.
love ur videos, trying to help in every way I can
Finally we are getting to the good stuff :)
Awesome video, keep it up! Just few tiny mistakes in pronouncing (Avatahar-Avathar) and part where Ungoliant attacked Melkor were wrong but I love this 😁
Your channels (all of them) are awesome.
Keep up the good work!!!! Love the videos!!!❤
You guys are awesome, thanks for making these videos
I never managed to finish the Silmarillion, but I do love many of the tales of the first age
Very well done Wizards and Warriors.... Very well done indeed
Loved the video!
Just thank you man, really thank you
Always look forward to look to this channel videos, Down to the algorithm!
amazing work!
