High King Fingon the Valiant - Epic Character History

High King Fingon, son of Fingolfin, was the heir to the throne of the Noldor, yet he survived the horrors of Morgoth as much as any other great hero in the First Age. Thank you all so much for watching, let me know your thoughts on Fingon in the comments below! As always, a great thanks to the online artists whose visual works made this video possible! If you are one of the artists, please let me know and I will post your name and a link to your work in this description!
