I am so glad this exists! Now I know where the stress falls in Gil-Galad! I did not know if I had to treat it as one word (Gíl-galad) or as two words (Gil-Gálad).

I'm certain he was gathered up to the Halls of Mandos and dwells there even now, tall and fair and spirit unbroken.

It actually sends shivers down your spine. These stories don't read like fantasy, instead they read like historic sage's wrote in poetic form. It's eerie. It feels like we're reading about hisotric events from 100,000 years ago.
