Galadriel: Ambition VS Wisdom - Tolkien Lore Video

Time for something a little different! In this video we'll take a look at the character of Galadriel, and try to untangle exactly who she is, how she came to be that way, and who she was when she was before that. Galadriel has one of my favourite character arcs in the entire Legendarium, and yet we don't get to see it unless we've read the Silmarillion.


For more information on Fëanor and Galadriel check out my six part series on the Forging of the Silmarils:    • The Crafting of the Silmarils | Of Fë...  

And don't forget to check out my Bilbo Baggins video:    • Bilbo: Baggins VS Took - Tolkien Lore...  


Much love and many thanks to the artists who make the wonderful art. No Tolkien art is created by myself, and all credit goes to the individual artists.
