Скачать или смотреть Beleriand: The LOST Continent of Middle-Earth | LOTR Lore

In this episode from The Elder Darkness, we journey back to the dawn of Middle-earth, when the world was young and the lands were still being shaped by divine hands. “The Birth of Beleriand: The First Continent of the West” unveils the ancient creation of the western lands-those that would one day cradle the greatest tales of the First Age. After the defeat of Morgoth, the Valar turn their power toward healing the scars left by war. From the depths of the sea to the rising peaks of Aman, Arda itself transforms beneath their might.

The video explores how Beleriand, the first continent of the West, emerged as a land of beauty and sorrow. Its rivers and forests, sculpted by Ulmo’s waters and Yavanna’s green life, became the birthplace of the Elves, who awoke under the first starlight. Here, the early history of Middle-earth unfolds-the beginnings of kingdoms, the shaping of mountains, and the foundations of a world destined for both glory and ruin.

Listeners will discover the harmony between the Valar as they raise the western lands, and the quiet tension that foreshadows the return of shadow. From the silver shores of Alqualondë to the dark roots of Thangorodrim, every element of the world carries the memory of this creation. Even ages later, echoes of Beleriand linger-in the songs of the Noldor, in the ruins beneath the sea, and in the myths remembered by Númenor and Gondor.

Join The Elder Darkness as we retell one of Tolkien’s most ancient and mysterious chapters-the making of Beleriand, the first continent that would shape all the legends of Middle-earth to come.
