The Complete Travels of Legolas | Tolkien Explained
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 มี.ค. 2021
- Today, we track the entire life of Legolas: living in Mirkwood, his adventures as a member of the Fellowship, and his actions after the Return of the King. Known for his fighting abilities and great senses, he comes to befriend the unlikeliest of companions - Gimli the Dwarf. We will also cover his likely age as we look at his actions in the books. Just as notable as his deeds during The Lord of the Rings are his actions after Sauron's fall, as he helps rebuild Minas Tirith and ultimately sails west with his best friend.

Remember to hit Subscribe and the bell so you don't miss future NOTR vids!
What videos would you like to see in the future? Let me know here!
Wars between elves and dwarves?
Also on the house of finwe
I like videos about Smaug! 😁
Could you do a video on Gimli? Since you did Legolas
What is the connection of Aragorn and Thranduils people? Why did he bring Gollum to the Woodland Realm and not to much closer Lorien?
I'm really not the emotional kind of guy, but knowing all their stories come to an end at some point, even though none of these characters ever existed, just filled me with a deep sadness suddenly. I was in a great mood, but then "The eight companions would never gather togehter again" hit me like a truck. It's weird how stories can move you so easily. You'd wish their adventures would go on forever, but Aragon dies, Gimli and Legolas depart to Valinor, same for Frodo and Sam and so on and that's just the end, there is nothing to tell anymore and I sit here at 3am in front of my PC nearly crying. Weird stuff
And you may hate me to tell you this , but i play lotro game to be with these characters again and to live the adventure, but i lost so much time doin this , instead of doin something with more sence in real life, but you know...
Despite the world having faded with the passing of magical things into myth and legend, I really like the last stanza of "The song of Durin', "...but still the sunken stars appear, in dark and windless Mirrormere. There lies his crown in water deep, 'til Durin wakes from sleep."
Its a testament to how great tales impact us.
Станьо Коновски Just do what you enjoy, man. Это хорошо)
There is some great fan fiction out there. Also some that would gag a maggot. I prefer the gap fillers although there are some what-if stories that are intriguing. Investigate those you’ll find something you like.
What I love the most about these NotR videos is the use of the maps. It's nice having a visual aid that shows which direction everyone went when the Fellowship split up and how they ended up where.
Glad you enjoy the map-work! It's always helped me when reading the tales to know exactly where everything is.
@@NerdoftheRings Wich maps do you use? can we view or download them somewhere?
@@lolFY2 LOTRproject is good, try that. It has timelines, journeys of key characters etc.
Agree with your comment.
I'm a visual learner, so these maps and character discs help me immensely.
I'm a grandmother who became fascinated with LOTR in my early teens. I've lost count of how often I read the series, and I've gifted the books to each of my children.
Until now, I've only been peripherally aware of these other histories and stories. As my eyes no longer let me read , I am grateful for your channel.
Thanks for a new depth to my 50 plus years of LOTR.
I believe there is an audiobook version of LOTR told by Andy Serkis. Just so you know.
Miss I have to ask you, since you are a long time fan. How were your first reactions to seeing the films for the very first time?!
@@DuchessofEarlGreyyes and it's free without ads on Spotify
Legolas is the reason I always play an Elf archer in any game that allows it. He is godly but humble, loyal to his friends and lethal to his enemies. A true hero in my eyes.
He is the standard same with my brother
Damn me too! When I first come to know LOTR by the movies, All my video games and RPG characters become archers of the Elven race.
@@itamarwjr92 A true inspiration for us all.
@@tevincollins2869 A true inspiration to us all. :)
@@itamarwjr92 Thats how I always play Skyrim!
The friendship of Legolas and Gimli is the greatest tale transcending racism, adversity and the most touching of true friendship, one we should all try to emulate.
i just was thinking about that. how about with a friend? Aye i could do that
Indeed! Their friendship was surprising, but it proved that elves and dwarves can be friends. Gimli is kinda like a fiery little brother and then there's Legolas, the cool and calm older brother, and the rest of the Fellowship being precious as well😎💖
@@veniceangelidelacruz2988 waaaay older lol
They gay and that's okay.
Legolas is a smooth cat. I love how they are all portrayed.
My heart aches for Legolas. For the immortals. But in this case Legolas. He got to know and love all those people, and then had to watch most of them die. He got to know Aragorn, and then he had to watch him get older and die while he stayed the same.
He also lost his mother too
@@deborahramos59
But she didn't die of old age, that's different.
@@shizukagozen777 I know that but thanks.
Thats why its called “the gift of men”
@@deborahramos59Only in the films- We don't know anything about his mother otherwise, Tolkien never wrote about her.
Gimli deserves a separate video for himself.
Definitely! And his own video, he shall have!
@@NerdoftheRings yah and this way of writing the sentence is weirdly beautiful.
@@NerdoftheRings and my Like!
@@NerdoftheRings Nerd of the Rings, a.k.a. Yoda Greenleaf of Degobahien. ;-)
@@NerdoftheRings yes, but Gimli and Legolas' lives were so intertwined during and after the Lord of The Rings, the two were virtually joined at the hip, (so to speak.)
Really the friendship between legolas and Gimli always makes my tears go down, its so beautiful
A true bromance
We all should be so lucky to have such a friendship.
The shared mourning and remembrance of Aragorn in the undying lands of the surviving fellowship and the elves who knew him must have been something truly remarkable.
So Galadriel’s prediction essentially meant that when he went to the sea, his heart would be there instead of the forest. The sea began to “call” to him, in a sense. Fitting, since the Sylvan Elves are Teleri.
So there are sea, stone and sylvan elves. Cool. Swamp elves too?
Legolas is Sindarin, though
Yes, it means his heart will belong to the sea. However, Legolas is a Sindarin elf. He lives among the Silvan elves of Mirkwood, but is not one. Sindarin elves are also among the Teleri though.
@@NerdoftheRings right, his dad is from Doriath, my mistake
I always read more into it: it's not just the sea that's calling him, it's Aman beyond. It's a weariness with Middle-Earth, the many sorrows of war and killing and losing friends. By becoming so personally entangled in the grand forces of history and war against evil, Legolas has lost that timeless purity of silvan elves forever abiding in the secluded woodlands.
It's perhaps worth mentioning that the reason for Legolas' admiration of the sea is that (according to the "Ainulindale") the music of the Ainur can still be heard in the sound of the seawaves. All elves are captivated by this sound and are never able to forget it.
Ohhh interesting. Thank you.
-Didn't Galadriel say something about Legolas yearning for the sea as soon as he heard it?-
Just got to that point in the video.
The illustration at 4:01 ended me forever. I will never recover.
this channel is way to underrated man, well done
All truly wonderful things are underrated
*too
Not the stones mourning the loss of their elven friends.
Lotr really taught us to feel for every rock, flower, and especially tree.
You know a true lord of the rings fan when they pronounce Celebrimbor Kelebrimbor and not Selebrimbor
Damn who calls him selebrimbor? 😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Think of all those Boston Celtics fans out there who've been brainwashed! 😅
@Han Boetes ke-le-BRIM-bor
He was one of the main characters in the hugely popular Mordor games. So take it with a grain of salt, pretty sure orcs don't have extreme Cockney accents.
Surprised you didn't mention the significance of Galadriel's three hairs & how Gimli's request impressed Legolas. I'm pretty sure that's the point where he began to respect the dwarf & change some of his attitude's towards his kind.
I mentioned that in my Galadriel video, and will likely feature that in a future video on Gimli. :) Thanks for watching!
They were already friends by that point. Legolas spent a good deal of his time in Lorien exploring the realm with Gimli. As the book says, that was a surprise to everyone. I'm sure the incident with the three hairs just confirmed what he already had begun to learn.
@@amberpippin7538 Yeah. It's been about 20 years since I read the books.
Gimli and Legolas's freindship story is unmatched. the fact they get to go sail off together, Gimli able to go is so cool
Gimli must have felt so proud on behalf of his race, and happy that he's friends with wonderful elves, like Legolas and Galadriel...
Legolas was always my favourite. And I love the fact that him and Gimli helped make Gondor a beautiful place after the events of the war
Sir you have one thing missing. Legolas also keeps his word and visit glittering caves with Gimli. Legolas was left speechless after visiting them, one of the few times that a dwarf has bested an elf with words...
I feel like legolas was very old, but he was also very sheltered by his father in Mirkwood, once his father tells legolas to go into the fellowship Legolas always seemed mesmerize by the travels and places he could visit, he in fact saw everything in middle earth with Gimli and then he travel to the seas to see other lands. Legolas was a great character, he was very wise, capable and impressive, but he was always humble and kind to everyone. I really love how he looked at life and at all things as if it was the first time.
I always like to think he was either born at the very end of the 2nd Age or the beginning of the the 3rd. Thranduil either going to war or coming back back after losing his father would be in need of an heir. But agree that Legolas was likey very sheltered as he had never been to Lorien despite it being so close to Mirkwood. Though that could've been because of its proximity to Dor Guldur that travel between the two elf realms stopped after 1000 TA. So for me i think he is anywhere from 3000 to 2000 by the time of FotR. Old enough to have wisdom but young enough to have many things unknown to him
Legolas and Gimli, the closest friendship between dwarves and elves there was, and will ever be.
Yeah you forget Culabrimbor and gimlies ancestors were friends but after that dwarves and Elves kept hating each other till Gimlie and Legolas in the fellowship of the ring 💯
and now in the rings of power Durin IV and Elrond are challenging the two in terms of friendship
I really wish Jackson would’ve filmed the scenes of the Fellowship in Eregion; it has potential to show ruined elven structures, and shed a bit more history on Sauron and Elves to the movie audience, AND kick ass with the Warg Attacks!
They do show ruins on the way to Moria.
Sauron utterly destroyed Eregion. As Legolas notes, everything is gone but the stones on the ground. No trees ,no grass, no buildings. The West door of Moria is the only thing ever of Eregion that remained.
Legolas and Gimli having such a pure friendship is really beautiful and Im glad it was a component of the story. Damn.
Legolas Greenleaf is also mentioned in The Fall of Gondolin. He helps lead the survivors across the Cristhorn to escape the siege.
Considering Tolkein wrote the Fall of Gondolin twenty years before LOTR, I think it is safe to assume that he really loved the character he created. So much so that he recycled the name and traits for use in LOTR.
The illustrations is actually so insane, it's very easy to overlook that part since the explenations is really the main focus
As a kid my friends and I thought Legolas's arrow in his quiver were magical since they never got finished and remained a steady number through the trilogy
Iirc Legolas is mentioned several times retrieving his arrows after a battle. But even with that, he’d have to make more at some point. Movie Legolas however is never out of arrows, which like guns never being out of ammo is a pacing device in movies. It’s jarring when you notice it, but there’s reasons why filmmakers keep doing it (some of which are better than others)
The story of Gimli and Legolas's friendship is probably one of my favorites in all of LoTR, by far.
Galadriels words to Legolas remind me of the passage in the silmarillion that those that hear the musicof Ulmo “hear it ever in their hearts, and longing for the sea never leaves them again”
Peter Jackson got a lot of things wrong in my opinion. But the moment in Moria when Legolas realizes that a Balrog is coming, and the camera pauses on him and you see that moment of fear...you know that Jackson understood the gravity of that moment in the book. It is the single best shot of the entire trilogy for me.
So you are saying that Legolas was even more badass in the books, so cool.
"You breathe so loud they could shoot you in the dark."
Well done, NOTR! 👏💗
Loved the telling of the adventures of Legolas! Bravo! 🙌 and thank you!
Thanks for watching!
I love your videos! They are so well researched and help to make sense of some of the Silmarillian and Unfinished Tales that are so disjointed. Thank you for making these videos!
I love the fact that the balrog is so feared that is caused gimli to drop his axe and invoke fear in Legolas. If a balrog alone could inspire this much terror, I can only imagine what seeing morgoth on the battlefield is like.
maybe someday well see the prophecy happen and morgoth return
I’m 49 yrs old, read all the books and watched all the films since Hanna Barbera. After watching this, I don’t know why I’m crying......
Makes us feel like we are living the moment and being happy , happens all the time 😁
Galadriel: **warns Legolas not to be lulled by the sounds of the gulls, for his heart will no longer be with the trees if he did**
Legolas' actor a few years later: **plays the role of an undead pirate captain**
The moment I saw this I was like SO happy I literally love the character Legolas I named my hamster after him! I cant wait to watch this!
Legolas the HAMSTER!!
Boo says every hamster has his day. Squeek!
Legolas is hands down one of the greatest characters ever created. And he’s my favorite and then Aragorn
Sit back relax and watch the video. This is going to be good again.
One of my favorite moments of legolas in the books was when he went to the paths of the dead with the grey company he's like
Ehh I ain't afraid of no human ghost
'Ehh I ain't afraid of no human ghost', or perhaps with more appropriate grammar.
Legolas’ age has always interested me because he _does_ seem to be plenty youthful if not spritely when comparing what most of the other elves do throughout LOtR. And he also seems to “respect his elders” when dealing with anyone like Elrond or Galadriel which seems youthful in a sense. He definitely doesn’t present or position himself as anyone else’s elder or offer advice that often as the more millennia old elves tend to do. But considering the things he says about his age to the fellowship, I always pictured him to be 900-2800 years old.
Still young in middle earth mind you. As this would put him a few hundred years into the third age at the very oldest. (Maybe around the time the Istari came?)But far older than an average man or dwarf. Which is why he sometimes talks down to them lol.
12:29 is possibly the best illustration I've ever seen of Legolas and Gimli. Look at their faces. They're fuckin bros.
Brothers in spirit... Ikr! It's wonderful 💖💖💖
legolas is light blond
I discovered this channel just yesterday (or probably a couple of days ago) and I want to say that I love every single video.
Cheers!
Thanks so much! Glad you found me!
That story telling and choice of music made me shed a tear. What a wonderful of friendship of Legolas and Gimli.
Best quote EVER
Legolas:
Final count, forty-two.
Gimli:
Forty-two? Oh, that's not bad for a pointy-eared elvish princeling. Hmph! I myself am sitting pretty on forty-THREE.
Legolas:
Forty-three.
Gimli:
He was already dead!
Legolas:
He was twitching.
Gimli:
He was twitching because he's got MY AX BURIED IN HIS NERVOUS SYSTEM!
Such a delightful rivalry those two had
This was like 4 quotes lol
"Never thought I would die alongside an elf"
"How about alongside a friend?"
"Aye that I can do."
Truer words could never be spoken at that moment. For what better than to be with the ones you can call friends.
Brother, this channel is superb! I cannot stress this enough, your way of telling the stories of known or mostly unknown heroes and characters from LOTR, The Silmarillion, Lost Letters and The Hobbit, brings some kind of tranquility to the stories. I think in large part to your way of speaking and the underlying music throughout.
All in all, you are the no. 1 Tolkien lore channel in my honest opinion!
Thank you so much. This is some high praise indeed! So happy to hear that you are enjoying the channel - and thank you for subscribing!
@@NerdoftheRings high praise indeed, but very deserved high praise! I can't wait so see whats next for you in terms of channel growth, you have potential to go very far, in sure! :)
I wonder when relations between mirkwod and lorien broke down. It would be a good help in guessing his age as he was probably born after that relationship between the two realms ended.
That's a great point! I'll have to look into that! I know it would be sometime in the 3rd age, as they marched to war together in the Last Alliance.
@@NerdoftheRings My guess is after the final battle of the Last Allience. Their armies suffered the greatest losses, and they marched together under one leader. It is possible that the two wood elf armies started to blame each other for the casualties.
It was Oropher’s fault for unilaterally attacking the lines of Mordor without Gil-Galad’s orders
My personal take on Legolas' age is that he's more or less just a thousand years old.
As what was said Legolas had never been in Lorien which would be doubtful if he was born in the 2nd age or even earlier in the 3rd age like the children of Elrond, as his grandfather and father had a favorable relations with Lorien's king Amdir and Amroth.
I was thinking he was born after Thranduil had moved his people northward in Greenwood in TA1050 and after Celeborn and Galadriel had assumed the lordship of Lorien after Amroth had died in TA 1080-1081
Sometimes we find solace in the most unlikeliest friendship. This was so emotional 😭.
I am glad Gimli and Legolas had rest together
You have awoken a renewed sense of love for this world. Thank you so much for all that you do with these videos! They are easy to follow, engaging & entertaining, and make me want to watch a new one over and over! Can't wait until your next vid!
I found your channel yesterday, and have since binge watched hours of your videos. Your story telling is a great, complete package. The visual representations with the map movements, to the music used, and your tone of voice when talking... absolutely superb! I hope you are being consulted for the Amazon LotR series! :)
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that. Glad you found the channel and are enjoying the vids! Thanks for watching/subscribing!
The friendship between gimli and legolas is so touching
these backstories are amazing! im beginning to understand why some claimed that the movies did not do enough justice for the characters. looking at it from the movie perspective is great, but this added detail clears up the meaning behind some of the character's actions
Ahh I love Legolas so much, he's my all time favorite character from the LOTR trilogy!
Yes!!!!! My favorite LOTR character
By far the best lord of the rings channel on TH-cam
It makes me happy to know that gimly travels to the undying lands with legolas in the end.
I'm in the middle of another adhd hyper-focus on the lord of the rings and these videos are simply *chef's kiss* for that, so thank you for making these!
God seeing that you dropped a new video makes me SO HAPPY
Your imagery, your style of narration and the depth of your content which reflects the hard work you put into researching, Makes this channel absolutely outstanding. I can’t have enough of your videos! I also love that they are longer👍
I love how you tell the story. with all the maps and important figures' pictures. thank you.
Glad you are enjoying the channel!
This quickly became one of my favourite TH-cam channels ever. My hats off to you sir, you make some of the most amazing content about my favourite movies ever. Forever a fan!
Thanks so much! So glad you are enjoying the channel! :)
Love your videos.
Thanks! So glad you are enjoying the channel!
Thanks for this! I'd love to see a video on the dwarves in the Second Age, so we can get a better idea of what we might see from them in the Amazon show. Love your channel!
Thanks! That's a great idea!
Probably as black gay people.
Man, the ending I never knew for Gimli and Legolas.... such an awesome friendship. Thanks for the videos! They really have opened my eyes to a better understanding of the lore. Has there been a video on Boromir ? I feel even in the extended editions his character wasn't done the justice it deserved.
What a beautiful video. Legolas has always been my favourite character of LOTR and I think that his unknown childhood and the mystery about his mother makes him even more interesting.
I love the Lord of the ring trilogy. My favorite all time movies. I can watch this movie over and over again. As a matter of fact, I watch it once a year during Christmas break and just veg.
That friendship story is my favorite. Thanks for putting this video together.
such awesome character
and very well portrayed
one of my fav next to Aragorn of course
1:00 -- this art is so precious! I love Legolas's stuffed deer
Thank you very much for your work, mate. The music, the voices....a composition like art. Please don't stop. Greetings from germany.
Oh yeah!! That was my request
I think I'm getting obsessed with this channel. The channel of great content.
Glad you were excited to see Legolas pop up in your feed today! :)
@@NerdoftheRings yes I was very excited & thank you brother!
Starting to think I have a sense for when those come out
Haha. It's almost always Saturdays at noon. :)
@@NerdoftheRings We're on the same timezone then :D except I come from Northern regions with languages foreign to the tongues of old
@@Jimjiss Forodwaith?
@@Schrodingers-Fat Well we call it Québec, but have it your way, Forodwaith sounds cool too
I just discovered you the other day and this morning I was looking for this video. I figured you’d be making it one day but I am very pleased it’s here so soon! Great content, keep up the good work.
legolas is my favorite lotr character 🥺
I have watched all of your content, minus the interviews, absolutely enamored with it. Keep it up!
Another great video. I havebto share it with my daughter who insists Legolas and Gimli traveled throughout Middle-earth solving crimes in a buddy cop type of adventure. I keep telling her that maybe that happened but most likely Gimli went on to rule the Glittering caves until they sailed west. However, she insists that they took off for periods of buddy cop adventures.
I would watch a buddy-cop series like that. haha.
That is so cute! I know it’s not lol but I would imagine whenever they travel together if they see anything wrong they will defend the innocent :-)
Part of the fun of these videos is seeing all the amazing Tolkien artwork there has been over the years.
I love your work. Always been a huge fan of Tolkien, having read all of his works by the time I was 14 or 15. I'm 33 now and listening to these along with the music and the visuals gives me such a sense of nostalgia. Thanks man
This is amazing, love your videos.
I wonder if you could make more videos of the wars of legendarium, that would be fantastic...
I'm sure we will cover some more wars along the way! There's some great battles to choose from!
I am a black lotr fan nerd and I LOVE this channel and hope most for the love that will come for the new Amazon show
Glad you found the channel! I’m eagerly awaiting the Amazon show as well. Hopefully we get a trailer or something soon!
This is absolutely brilliant. I love the Lord of the Rings since I saw it 1st time. I watched the extras how the build it, how they maked swords, shields with all symbols of Gondor or Rohan or another characters, how they make the script from book to movie etc. Your videos are mind blowing because after all I thought I know a lot but there is always more about it. Thanks man. Really appreciate it.
I wouldnt have mind the LotR movies being 4 in total, instead of a trilogy, IF they would have stayed true to the books details!
I’d be interested in a video on the concept of Will in Tolkien’s world. Specifically how magic seems to exist as a mechanism for exerting will. There are lots of examples of this and it reframes the idea of Willpower in the world.
Thank you for these travel videos, I look forward to the next one.
This was amazinggggggggg
Every video you make is perfect!
You`re the best tolkien channel, my friend.
From start to end and all within it: the pictures, the voices, the music, how long the quates are, even the number of ads during the video..
You`re the best! thanks!
Thank you for posting this. I've searched for a video pertaining to his life, as far we know. I've never seemed to find it. Thank you
Ahh Legolas is finally explained in an easy to understand way
Yay new NOTR content!
So many crave immortality and I hear it from people, often in half-hearted jest. To live but just a few years more, not a whole hundred, but just a few more.
But then to hear of Legolas's journey and the losses he would have endured. All that he held dear, those who helped shape his path and open his eyes to the bright wide world, taken while he remained full of life.
I cannot begin to comprehend that level of bitterness, of sorrow, though I know loss well. He visited for tea, coffee and a slice more often than we appreciated.
so much great detailed we missed in the movie
I'm a big nerd when it comes to lord of the rings. Thank you for giving us nerds this!
The work you put into your videos is truly inspiring. Love your narration and editing. You also make an excellent choice of art, both visually and musically.
May I ask where I can find the music you use? I really like how well It sets the ambience
No problem. A good amount is on Spotify. I've started adding to a playlist: open.spotify.com/playlist/18LwC1XcT0J3gIYXBcAuWi?si=-2LPruJRQ6KFyHoMG94wWA
Wonderful. This has made me want to read the books again. There's so much I'd forgotten.
These are such a treat! Thank you!
Thanks for making this brilliant video, which makes me want to revisit the LOTR books one more time to pick up those details I have missed. 🙏
A lot can be learned today from that unlikeliest of friendship.
Thanks again for a good Saturday morning! 🙏🏻
Really enjoyed that. Thanks for your research and presentation.
5:30 I expected to hear more about this battle in this video, considering it was easily most interesting thing that ever happened to Legolas by far after all!
The ending gave me goosebumps.
❤️
Dude i have been binging your channel and this is awesome love your gental voice and your voice overs even more thank you!
I love that last drawing of Legolas and Gimli. It's one of my favorite depictions of Middle Earth.
