Hey there! I’m a huge Tolkien fan and absolutely in love with Middle-Earth. Mythology and the becoming of things, be it creatures, nature or magic, fascinates me. And so does the very beginning of the realm I adore so much. Fore, I am in college I don’t always have the time to read and so, I thank you for creating this podcast. It is always such a bliss listening to you and taking me to a place, where I can escape to for a little while. Hope you have a great day <3
