Unfinished Tales - Part One - II - Narn I Hín Húrin - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

"The Tale of the Children of Húrin" is the longest chapter in UT, so we will divide our active round of discussion into sections. The first will encompass the sections: The Childhood of Túrin; The Words of Húrin and Morgoth; The Departure of Túrin; and Túrin in Doriath. It may be sensible to go one section after another within that framework, but if you have a contribution to make that crosses those boundaries, feel free to post at any time.

Comparisons to parallel accounts in the Silmarillion and in the book proper are welcome! The discussion is now open - I will contribute more on my part later.
