Quote:

"Receive now, Lord, the Necklace of the Dwarves, as a gift from one who has nothing, and as a memorial of Hurin of Dor-Lomin. For now my fate is fulfilled, and the purpose of Morgoth achieved; but I am his thrall no longer."

Hurin to Thingol. 'Of the Ruin of Doriath'

Nilpaurion Felagund · 02-17-2005, 11:15 PM

It was that fanfiction-ish line.

The thread is yours.

Well, about somewhat archaic language in the quote.
