The Doriath and Thingol name drops had me *screaming*

Y diréis: "¿Y qué pasa con Elwë "Joyitas" Elu Thingol"

Y yo diré: "pues que es gilipollas"

Pero aparte, diría que sí entra dentro de la categoría de "alto elfo" porque aunque se Moriquendiza un poco, creo que ver los Árboles es más importante que lo de regresar porque sí a verle el jeto a Manwë

I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THESE

Oh! Círdan (originally Nowë) was the kin of Thingol (originally Elwë)...

So they made the jewels and Melkor/Morgoth had a spider help him destroy the lights of the trees of Valinor. Then war happened.

But also: the Maia Melian married the elf Thingol and they birthed the Prettiest Creature To Ever Be Pretty: Lúthien.

It works on so many levels. If you know about Thingol and the character history it is a great reference, but for other people they are like the younger elf, having no idea of this.
It is both a meta-point and one in universe telling of the loss of passing generations.

Y si nos salimos de los altos elfos, que si los Nandor se pararon antes de las montañas nubladas, y luego los faladrim que les iba la playuqui, los laiquendi que decían que mejor los ríos... Y fijo que algo se queda por ahí. Ah, claro, Thingol, que era que no pero fue que sí por su señora xD

Another example is Thingol, being surrounded by a whole bunch of dwarves and all alone going “you guys SUCK! you are SMALL and UGLY and WEIRD! I, on the other hand is OLD and COOL and MIGHTY” and they proceed to kill him instantly.

Probably something like 1500 years or more if he’s been there since before Doriath fell. And I suppose that’s when it would be as he didn’t seem to know King Thingol is gone. But with the show time compressing and glossing over some 1st Age stuff, it’s hard to know.

Galadriel [Finrod's sister] went not with him to Nargothrond, for in Doriath dwelt Celeborn, kinsman of Thingol, and there was great love between them. Therefore she remained in the Hidden Kingdom, and abode with Melian...

That’s right, Gormy gets a crush on Lúthien. AND figures out she’s the daughter of Thingol, King of the Sindar.

So they take Lúthien back to Nargothrond because they hope to bribe her dad Thingol into working with them against More-Goth.

Thankfully goodest boy Huan snuggles with Lúthien a bunch.

Yet there are beautiful moments that peak at something more, often in the quiet unshowy parts. One I rewound 3 times because even as a joke it said so much in a small moment between two elves:
"Who?"
"Army of Doriath? Fought under King Thingol? Perhaps you know Captain Erestor?"
*shakes head*

So Earendil has a human parent and an elf parent and is half-elven.

Elwing is the daughter of Dior—the son of Beren (Human) and Luthién, who is the daughter of Elwë, also known as Elu Thingol, and Melian, a Maiar. Elwë is brother of Olwë, founder of the Teleri branch of the elves.

Tinuviel means Nightingale because he meets her while she is singing.

Dad is NOT happy so he tells Beren they can get married if he goes into Morgoth’s underground nightmare palace to get Thingol a Silmaril, which are like not even his deal. Basically an impossible task.

THIS DOES NOT END WELL.
November 8, 2026 at 8:10 AM
So Beren goes there but is too late.

Has to flee on his own through lands of nightmare until he gets to Doriath, the forest of elf-king Thingol and his Maia wife, Melian.

Beren meets their daughter Luthién and falls in love. Very Aragorn and Arwen (their descendants!). Beren calls her Tinuviel.
November 8, 2026 at 8:10 AM
Aragorn never shuts up about his Numenorian heritage but if I were him I would be more obnoxious about being a descendant of Finwë, Elu Thingol and Melian.

and i think they could create a mirror *with* galadriel. lothlorien still needs to be established. the situation in khazad dum likely won't be over in s3 either. could be interesting to see celeborn meet durin given what happened with thingol. bringing in mirkwood via arondir... theres so much-

"long years were measured by the wheeling stars above them; and the trees of Nan Elmoth grew tall and dark before they spoke any word" Queen Melian having that awkward first date nothing to say moment with Thingol #TolkienTrewday Queens #Silmarillion Kip Rasmussen art @timbolton.bsky.social

“And death," said Thingol, "thou shouldst taste,
had I not sworn an oath in haste
that blade nor chain thy flesh should mar.
October 26, 2026 at 2:19 PM
There’s a great moment in the Lay of Leithian is when Thingol says he’ll spare Beren’s life but condemn him to a hellish existence lost wandering and hopeless in enchantment because he’s a spy of Morgoth, and Beren interrupts him to say death’s not a problem but TAKE THE SPY THING BACK.

Tolktober week 3 art-chive! Honestly shocked I've been able to one (or more) of these every day so far!

Om Thingol gett den till dem direkt hade alla kunnat vara vänner istället
October 22, 2026 at 8:29 AM
Den första Kinslayingen var onödig helt klart, men den andra ligger rätt mycket på Thingol och Dior också. För de HADE KUNNAT GE TILLBAKA DEN
October 22, 2026 at 8:14 AM
Beren och Luthien tar den från Morgoth, ger den till Elu Thingol (Luthiens far) som anlitar dvärgar för att sätta den i sitt halsband Nauglamir. De blir så förtjusta att de slår ihjäl honom och tar den, men Beren tar tillbaka den. När han och Luthien dör ärver deras son Dior den.

Am thinking that he only goes one of two ways.
Naturally...
Or the way of Thingol in the "Ruin of Doriath"
