King Theoden is 1 of only 2 people who were compared to the majesty and bravery of Orome, or any of the Valar for that matter. The other was Fingolfin, as he rode to Angband to challenge Morgoth to single combat. It's hard to listen to the chapters describing Theoden and the Ride of the Rohirrim without being moved to tears.
"And as if in answer there came from far away another note. Horns, horns, horns, in dark Mindolluin's sides they dimly echoed. Great horns of the north wildly blowing. Rohan had come at last."
The comparsion of Fingolfin riding to Angband with Orome is poetic in the Silmarillion. Fingolfin showed the wrath of the Noldor in a single combat against Morgoth.
" It's hard to listen to the chapters describing Theoden and the Ride of the Rohirrim without being moved to tears." no one needs your purple passages, over-emoter.
@@rickdeckard1075 No one needs your mean-spirited displays of denunciation. Go practice your overcompensations in front of a mirror until you accept yourself.
In the LOTR books, aspects of the Valar become manifest-Manwe, when the winds change. Varda, when the stars appear. Ulmo, with the dreams/visions near water... I think the spirit of Orome is present when the Rohirrim/Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas are hunting the Orcs (holding Merry and Pippin) to the edge of Fangorn forest.
Oromë is my favorite Valar for the simple reason that he raised Huan. I like to think that he gave Huan to Celegorm partly because the dog destroyed couches unnumbered in Valinor.🙂
I must say, these videos focusing on the various races of Middle Earth are a lifesaver. For someone like me, who is relatively new to Tolkien's world, I get everybody mixed up all the time especially when it comes to first and second age characters and these videos are incredibly helpful. So, thanks, Matt! You're the best!
I agree. But not surprised with the absolute valor theoden showed when running towards pure doom at the battle of pelennor fields. So much bravery and honor packed into one king it makes my heart drop.
There is a video on YT of JRR Tolkien reading a portion of the Ride of the Rohirrim, including Theoden blowing the horn of Rohan with such force that it's broken asunder. Lots of people know this by heart but hearing Tolkien read it himself is just glorious.
"Arise, arise, Riders of Theoden! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride ro Gondor!" Orome in his wrath could not have commanded better.
I suggest when you have epic ending or very sad/tragic one in your script to do a short fade away at the end so you don't jump immediately to Patreons. Sometimes it breaks the "feel" of the video's conclusion as the tone is totally different and it follows the last video scene immediately.
Me too I also love that part in Silmarillion where after the seeming defeat of the Noldor, Fingolfin charges to the Gates of Angband with wrath and with such speed like wind in through dust that those whom witnessed him mistook him as Oromë it just showed you how powerful Fingolfin was for him to be comparable to one of the most powerful Vala and even permanently wound Morgoth and put up a excellent memorable fight easily my favorite moments in Silmarillion along with The War Of Wrath, Turin vs Glaurung, Huan vs Carcharoth, Luthien’s song to Mandos.
Excellent! My favorite of the Valar. I love how Theoden was compared to him in "The Ride of the Rohirrim" chapter. It just makes his final ride that much more glorious!
One of my favorite Vala witu Aule and Manwë it took a minute for Oromë to grow on me what I like is his proactiveness in hunting for Morgoth’s servants and all evil creatures in Arda, one of my favorites parts in The Silmarillion is when Fingolfin witnesses the utmost defeat of the Noldor and is engulfed with despair and wrath that when he goes to charge to the Gates of Angband to challenge Morgoth 1 on 1 Combat that those whom witnessed him riding with such wrath and speed that he was mistook as Oromë and his eyes gleaming with determination like a Vala as even Morgoth appearing like a tower and clouds of thunder didn’t intimidate Fingolfin and hence how both he and Fëanor became my favorite characters and I see the relationship between my Brother and me like their’s but I digress this is about Oromë. I would like to see Eonwë my favorite Maia and Thorondor Lord of Eagles covered.
I remember when I was young (before the internet era) another kid told me that Oromë was revered by Elves because he could shoot five arrows at once. I never found anything written by Tolkien about this, I don’t know he was making things up.
Ulmo has always been aloof and distant from the matters of the Valar. He would never want to be the leader. Oromë's interesterest were kinda narrow as well.
That is exactly why he was the leader of the Valar; because he was the greatest among them. So good and pure he couldn’t even comprehend evil. Though many other of the Valar did, they were less pure and inline with the thought of Eru then Manwe
After Yavanna and Ulmo, he is my favorite vala! I have always been a little undecided about how detached the valar were, in second and third ages.. that's probably why I like the valar I do..
I’ve noticed that when discussing Huan in this video and in the video featuring him, and in the video of Beren and Luthien, one major detail is overlooked- 3 times he was permitted to speak in the tongue of men before he met his death
Oh YES!! And if the right director was found; Peter Jackson did very well with LOTR- not so much with the HOBBIT movies! I really got amped up over “Ring’s of Power” but was ultimately somewhat disappointed with their woke Hollywood vision!
2:03 damn, so in Peter Jackson’s films, when the Rohirrim blow their horns before Theodin begins The Ride of the Rohirrim, it’s almost like a callback to Oromë blowing his horn. Because in the text, Theodin is compared to Oromë. Tolkien lore is so deep and so beautiful
So the Great Horn of the House of Hurin was crafted during the reign of the last King of Gondor of the line of Anarion and was split in two right before the Return of the King. So the Horn of Gondor was the symbol of the Stewards' rule and was split in two during Denethor's reign, symbolically marking the end of the rule of stewards. Wow, Tolkien never ceases to amaze me
Wow, I never noticed the reference to Orome in the description of Theoden at the Pelennor Fields. I don't know if anyone will ever plumb the depths of Tolkien's mythology.
Brilliant video. We know it takes a lot of time and hard work to make these videos. So we also appreciate your hard work and dedication towards these videos.
As usual, 10/10 video both in quality of coverage and quantity of content. If possible, I would love to see a video breaking down the defense of Minas Tirith/Battle of Pelennor Fields. A breakdown by Nerd of the Rings of the Men of the West reuniting to save the White City would be amazing.
I'd imagine that hearing Oromës trumpet as a monster in Middle Earth would be absolutely terrifying, I mean a literal god-like being is hunting YOU, which is why the Doom Slayer comes to mind a lot when Oromë is ever mentioned. The guy is the most bad ass of the Valar, sorry Tulkas but Oromë takes the cake
Excellent… I am very convinced that Prof. J. R. R. Tolkien knows Arabic (My mother tongue)… The name Oromë’s horse “Nahar” means in Arabic; Day… Many other names in his writings are Arabic names… Regards🇶🇦
You're not entirely wrong, he studied a great variety of languages to at least a small degree. He was a professor of philology, which is called historical linguistics in non-British countries. While the character names are in languages that he constructed from scratch, he was fond of cross-linguistic puns so it is entirely possible that he did in fact know "Nahar" meant "day" in Arabic. Though this was far enough outside the area of his expertise (which was ancient Germanic languages) it's also possible he didn't know that. So far as has been published, there's no proof he chose this name for anything other than it's sound. If he did intend that meaning, it would certainly be appropriate for the character.
My theory. Orome’s love for middle earth was matched if not surpassed by the blue wizards. So much so as they did not desire to return to Valinor. After all, the two Blue’s were Orome’s Miar!
I just think it's neat how Oromë's servant, a Maia named Tilion, becomes the Maia to operate the Moon after it's created. Idk it just feels right that a hunter/rider god will also steer the Moon
It’s been scripted, recorded, and audio edited. I’m hoping to do the video editing between Mon & Tues and have it released on Wednesday! (Fair warning: It’s currently clocking in at about 1hr 15min)
The series was brilliant in terms of setting quality but tbh it felt different to other Tolkien adaptations and not in a good way.I felt like it doesn't even try to tell the Tolkien story of the second age and is more some warped twisted abomination that has twisted character personalities from what they are and at points utterly wrecks the story Tolkien wanted to tell.I really did want the series to do well but I feel very disappointed with it as it doesn't live up to the potential and budget it had.I understand the second age is very vast to try tell in film but it really feels rushed and constrained and time line constraining was a terrible idea that has really left a sour tastes for me because it isn't a true reflection of what nations in Tolkien's universe or his story more generally
Thank you Patreon supports. Learning through Matt bout Tolkien’s vast myth is only continued because of you, of this I’m sure. Though Matt wants it told, I imagine what he says is true, and he cannot afford it alone, and I can’t afford it at all.
I think so. While Tolkien never states this specifically, it's hard for me to see this war unfolding over 42 years with all the destruction that happened without some of the Valar being present.
In earlier versions of the legendarium Aule and Yavanna were the parents of Orome and Nessa. Furthermore, Orome and his wife Vana were once envisioned to have had a daughter named Nieliqui.
Just as how the first light after the Darkening of Valinor came from the feet of Orome's steed, so the ground beneath Snowmane's feet lighted green as Theoden rode to Pelennor shrouded in darkness.
Ulmo and Orome the two stuck cleaning up the other valar mess. Think those after Saruman fall went to Aule and said that’s it no more apprentices for you this is the third one
Is there a canon explanation on why the valar did so little in personal action against evil? It wouldnt be particular dificult for them to personaly fight sauron. And yet they did not.
Basically they didn't want to destroy another continent, the Valar are too powerful for the world they want to protect. A bit of a cop-out, given how many alternative methods the Valar could use aside from outright war, but that's the only reason that I'm aware was given.
Almost all the Valars and yes including Melkor are following the Music of the Ainur. The Ainulindalë is a weave of music that brought forth creation and the fate till the end of times. In a way, the Valars are driven by instinct only to act what was supposed to happened from the song of creation.

I didn't think the elves witnessed the battle of the powers 🤔...or am i thinking of a different battle between the valar & morgoth in the north of middle-earth?
I'm the Valar Orome true story and name real name is Bythios (profound) Aeon or I may be one of the sons of Finwe my last name in a past life was Fingolfin I remember using my phone in my past life and I had Instagram
Maybe he should have gotten off of his butt and hunted Sauron over the many thousands of years that he was killing and enslaving people. But then the Valar are almost completely useless, aren't they?
I dub it as hate fiction, cause calling it fan fiction is too generous because most fan fics are made by fans and can be enjoyable, rings of pretentiousness is made by people who hated JRR Tolkien even going so far as releasing this abysmal show during the Anniversary of Tolkien’s passing pure disgust and they hate actual fans. All these woke products from Disney “Star Wars”, “Halo” tv show, current Degenerate Comics and Woker Brothers as I call them, Rings Of Pretentiousness etc I dub as hate fiction because they desecrate Lore, show no respect and disregard source material.

One of my favorite Valar,also because of his dreadful wrath!
Orome despised evil with a burning passion
Your presentation of this arc was masterful and now I wished Amazon, if loyal to this lore, had done this series instead. 🥂 Awesome upload! Thx.
Other than Fingolfin, my fave character from the Silmarillion. Beautifully presented. Thanks Matt!!

Most excellent! Thank you for another Saturday dose of Tolkien.
With his quick anger and wrath, love for riding horses and hunting, I've always felt like he was the most human-like of the Valar.
I have been waiting for an Orome video. thank you so much
This channel deserves more subs, i know a lot of these but its good to relax and listen to them.

Gotta love Oromë. He gets a little overshadowed but he's awesome.
So why was a guy, who doesn't understand evil, chosen as a leader of the Valar, when there are guys like Ulmo and Oromë?
Favouritism perhaps
Ulmo has always been aloof and distant from the matters of the Valar. He would never want to be the leader. Oromë's interesterest were kinda narrow as well.
manwë was the valar who most understand the will of eru, so he _had_ to lead them.
That is exactly why he was the leader of the Valar; because he was the greatest among them. So good and pure he couldn’t even comprehend evil. Though many other of the Valar did, they were less pure and inline with the thought of Eru then Manwe

I love the video and your channel! Specially the alternative histories, would love to see your take on "What if Ungoliant had consumed Melkor"
any chance we can actually have a movie about morgoth and how he fought the forces of the valar and middle earth
Giving Huan to celegorm is still a mystery to me lol. He surely felt a prophety or something.
Maybe Mandos told him to do so.
That was probably before Melkor corrupted Fëanor and his sons.

Is there a canon explanation on why the valar did so little in personal action against evil? It wouldnt be particular dificult for them to personaly fight sauron. And yet they did not.
It's on Morgoth's ring
Basically they didn't want to destroy another continent, the Valar are too powerful for the world they want to protect.
A bit of a cop-out, given how many alternative methods the Valar could use aside from outright war, but that's the only reason that I'm aware was given.
Almost all the Valars and yes including Melkor are following the Music of the Ainur.
The Ainulindalë is a weave of music that brought forth creation and the fate till the end of times. In a way, the Valars are driven by instinct only to act what was supposed to happened from the song of creation.
Wonderful!!!

Why do Tolkien folk tend to pronounce the word "shone" as in rhyming with "fawn" rather than "throne"? Example: 1:56
I've noticed several LOTR channels say it this way.
It's how Tolkien pronounced it. It's the English pronunciation of the word. What you are referring to is the American pronunciation.
One more question: if it was planed for (most of) the elves to life in the west, why were they placed so far in the east?

What if celebrimbor never or dident send the Elven Rings away
What if Finwe survived
