“In the spring of the year after was born in Gondolin Eärendil Halfelven, the son of Tuor and Idril Celebrindal; and that was five hundred years and three since the coming of the Noldor to Middle-earth.” — The Silmarillion

In memory of Christopher John Reuel Tolkien (21 November 1924 – 15/16 January 2020)
Thank you for your hard work on collecting and editing your father works ... from “The Silmarillion” to “the Fall of Gondolin”
I couldn’t find any words to express my sadness of losing you.
RIP
“And Maeglin’s secret hatred grew ever greater, for he desired above all things to possess Idril, the only heir of the King of Gondolin.” — The Silmarillion

“And at the last by the power that Ulmo set upon them they came to the hidden door of Gondolin, and passing down the tunnel they reached the inner gate, and were taken by the guard as prisoners.” — The Silmarillion

“But there came a great storm out of the west, and out of that storm Ulmo the Lord of Waters arose in majesty and spoke to Tuor as he stood beside the sea. And Ulmo bade him depart from that place and seek out the Kingdom of Gondolin.” — The Silmarillion
Artwork by Alan Lee
“But one of them was saved by Ulmo from the wrath of Ossë, and the waves bore him up, and cast him ashore in Nevrast. His name was Voronwë; and he was one of those that Turgon sent forth as messengers from Gondolin.”

Larsen now takes us through medieval automata and the tensions they embody: between technology and sorcery/demonic forces. Melkor’s dragons in Gondolin fit well within this model. @TolkienSociety @UofGFantasy #IMC2019 @IMC_Leeds
The #festival persisted in The Silmarillion - less detail, but still a pivotal moment in the story of the Fall of Gondolin.

What other invented festivals can you think of in fantasy literature?

Here’s an invented #festival: “Tarnin Austa or the Gates of Summer” celebrated in Gondolin (in #Tolkien’s Arda) to mark the beginning of summer. That’s the moment that Melko(r) chooses to attack Gondolin.

In the other world where Maeglin call Idril “my dear cousin”, not “my love”.
Hope you like this idea!
