Sisters of the Shire S2 E73- The History of Galadriel and Celeborn
This week, we’re finally wrapping up “The History of Galadriel and Celeborn” with one last mysterious artifact: the Elessar, or Elf-stone!
Where did this magical green jewel come from? Who made it? Why does it have the power to heal and restore? And how does it eventually make its way into the hands of Aragorn?
We’ll meet a legendary jewel-smith from Gondolin, revisit Eärendil’s complicated jewelry collection, hear two very different versions of the Elessar’s history, and uncover one particularly unexpected detail involving Celebrimbor and Galadriel.
And with that, we finally say goodbye to one of the most confusing, fascinating, and endlessly rewritten sections of Unfinished Tales!

Sisters of the Shire S2 E72- The History of Galadriel and Celeborn
This week we begin a new chapter in The History of Galadriel and Celeborn with the story of Amroth and Nimrodel! We finally get to learn more about the mysterious Elf we’ve mentioned so many times before, along with the history of Lórien and the Silvan Elves who called it home. And, of course, we meet Nimrodel, whose story has become one of the many beautiful legends woven into the history of Middle-earth. This section has romance, mystery, beautiful Tolkien lore, and—because this is Unfinished Tales—more than a few questions that Tolkien never quite gave us answers to. Come along as we try to piece together this fascinating little corner of Middle-earth!
