    Gimli, I think, is the greatest dwarf to have lived. Not for courage or prowess in battle (which he certainly had), but for being a healer.
    He healed the rift between Rohirrim and Dwarf.
    He healed the rift between Galadhrim and Dwarf.
    He built the bond between Gondorean and Dwarf.
    And at last, Gimli stood before the Valar, first among dwarves.
    I also must comment on the strength of Tolkien's work, that it inspires so many to such passion in its studies, as we see in examples like this video. Well done.

    There sincerely is no other youtube experience like this one. These long-form videos are so appropriately reflective of Tolkeins legendary style of writing. I feel as if I've embarked on a new journey into a familiar world.
    A sidenote I've always found intriguing: despite the sacred significance of the reincarnated heirs of Durins namesake, not all of the seven play a particularly pivotal or influential role in the progression of the Dwarven race. Some live and pass on without any recognition in the annals of naugrim lore.

    Just found your channel. Instant sub. By far and away my favorite Tolkien lore video I've seen. I read the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings at 9. That summer I also played my very first Dungeons and Dragons adventure, using one of my cousin's characters, a dwarf named Xavier. Needless to say, I've been in love with Dwarves for over forty years and agree spot on with your list. Sharing it out and thank you for this.

    You know when I first watched/read LOTR and up until relatively recently Dwarves were my least favorite. Now that has all changed thanks in part to your videos. Great job Rainbow Dave your videos bring order to the chaos that is TolkienTube.

    I want to know every detail about the dwarven kingdoms! Gundabad? From whence The Deathless came?!!? There has to be a story there!! And In my mind, Moria is bigger / deeper than Erebor, but I'm truly making that up! How about a list of kingdoms of dwarves by size and or population!!?? The Iron Hills are also geographically interesting. Maybe after Children of Hurin, give us another dwarven palette cleanser. A brutal, brutal palette cleanser. How many dwarven kingdoms existed at the height of their existence? How few, when they were most brutally massacred?? Where did dwarves flourish in each age? Thank you for inspiring me to love the Professor's work more with every video! RAINBOW FREAKIIN DAVE!! Love ya, buddy!!

    Hey Dave of many Colours
    I am glad that a channel like yours exist because I can escape from reality into Tolkiens works, but diffrently than he wrote it. (possibly because I read it in my mother tonge, german) And I love dwarfs
    So keep on going

  • @PalmelaHanderson
    @PalmelaHanderson Před rokem +7

    I find it interesting that, while Tolkien was very religious himself, the only real "religion" in a dogmatic sense we experience in middle-earth is through the Dwarves. There are certain things the Elves hold sacred like the light of Elbereth or whatever, but you don't really find Men (or Hobbits) paying any kind of service to religious tradition. It's mostly the Dwarves. Their language and traditions are sacred.

    • @dronesclubhighjinks
      @dronesclubhighjinks Před rokem +3

      I have wondered about this as well. I mean in general about the lack of organized religion in Middle Earth in the sense that Tolkien knew it. Maybe he thought more rituals or actual buildings of worship would be too complicating.
