Captain Foolhardy! | Of Túrin Turambar | # 31

In this episode, we find the footsteps of doom overtaking Túrin--despite naming himself "Turambar" (Master of Doom). We take a little extra time to discuss who is more responsible for the doom that leads to the death of so many--Túrin or Morgoth? Should we blame Túrin for any of it? Or should we blame Morgoth's curse spoken of Húrin?

Join Jonathan, Michael, and Dan as they discuss the rest of the story of Túrin! And, yes, we do dive into the extremely unexpected issue around the talking sword...

Don't forget to join us in our extended episode where we discuss Túrin's suicide, and dive into more detail about his unwanted doom! To get the extended episode, become a member at https://theonering.com/members ($4/mo and free for the 1st month)!
