The entrance to the path was like a sort of arch leading into a gloomy tunnel made by two great trees leant together. too old and strangled with ivy and hung with lichen to bear more than a few blackened leaves. (Hobbit VIII)
An archway opened.
By ancient trunks
it was frame darkly,
that in far-off days
the lightning felled,
now leaning gaunt
their lichen-leprous
limbs uprooted.
(The Lay of the Children of Hurin, Lays I: lines 936-939)
Frostgard might be the most accurate rendition of what I feel when reading The Silmarillion or Tolkien in general. Beautiful, soft, soothing and noble. Ithildin
I must admit I'm kinda jealous of musician that can carry so much feeling while being so quiet, calm and minimalist. This is great music and you should take a break of life and carefully listen to it Ithildin
I met Fogweaver through Vedurnan and, later, Magelight. This more energetic take on their music is wonderful and exciting, a compelling twist bearing their unique signature. emanuele127
