In this episode, we return to the heart of Arda and explore one of the most beautiful contrasts in all of Tolkien’s legendarium: the brilliant craftsmanship of Aulë and the life-giving grace of Yavanna.Aulë, the Smith of the Valar, is restless with creativity — shaping mountains, forging the deep places of the earth, and longing for minds to teach. Yavanna, the Giver of Fruits, watches over every green thing that grows, from towering forests to the smallest blades of grass. Their desires clash, intertwine, and ultimately give birth to some of the most important beings in Middle-earth’s history. Join us as we journey chapter by chapter through The Silmarillion—unraveling Tolkien’s myths, symbols, and hidden connections to The Lord of the Rings.PATREON: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/c/uptalkintolkien" rel="nofollow">https://www.patreon.com/c/uptalkintolkien</a>JOIN OUR FREE DISCORD: <a href="https://discord.gg/JgkhVdw" rel="nofollow">https://discord.gg/JgkhVdw</a>Order your CANDLES: <a href="https://www.firelightfables.com/?srsltid=AfmBOooj7IFrZfDvPckElvWg6eerkeNFvxSXvdVIebLw3hhnksbUvg4u" rel="nofollow">Firelight Fables Candles</a>Concerning Hobbits is NOW OUT!
