    It was a prophecy from Glorfindel, He will not return to this land. Far off yet is his doom, and not by the hand of man will he fall. , which isn’t much but the nazgul were aware of it. https://scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/59204/in-the-lord-of-the-rings-was-the-witch-king-aware-of-the-prophecy-about-his-dea

    That can be viewed as a real prophecy or a fake self fulfilling prophecy.

      I know where the prophecy is from - I just see no reason to interpret this as fake when high elves like Glorfindel are already canonically known to have the gift of sight and the prophecy was fulfilled. Given the Macbeth connection, without evidence from Tolkien there really isn’t any good reason to assume the prophecy was fake.

A comm for Lord Of The Rings Memes!

Rules:

  1. Follow the ToS of Piefed.social

  2. Don’t be too rough with each other! We’re here to appreciate, and sometimes lightly rib, Tolkien’s fantastic creation, and all of its derivative works. Arguments happen, but remember, in the words of Tolkien, that food and cheer and good song are what make a merrier world!

  3. AI content will be removed at moderator discretion. We ultimately want to keep AI content in this comm to a minimum, so while unknowingly sharing an AI meme might not always merit a removal, things like AI videos and the like will generally be removed.
