"I made a promise, Mr Frodo. A promise. “Don't you leave him Samwise Gamgee.” And I don't mean to." Beautiful parallel - Frodo saves Sam, Sam saves Frodo... #wilwarin #luinmenel #tolkien

Well, there we have. Ents in Shire. (I knew it) Justice for Hal... #luinmenel #wilwarin #tolkien

Still not Tolkien but we are not far from it. I took upon myself to dive into the Earthsea Cycle by Ursula K. Le Guin. I can't believe that it took me so many years to uncover this gem of the fantasy literature. My thoughts on the first book of the cycle - The Wizard of the Earthsea #Earthsea

Today about something different than Tolkien. Stephen King wrote many books, but this one changed something in my brain. One sentence review? You can do anything with the power of friendship. Art: A Little Paper Ship by Davide Gozzi #It #StephenKing #booklovers

When you are just a little overwhelmed and you need the small version of the comfort movie 😅 The Fellowship of the Rings - theatrical version on VCR with a Polish voice-over (so you don't need to focus and think in two languages) #wilwarin #luinmenel #tolkien

It is time for the yearly Lord of the Rings marathon. I woke up earlier to watch some movies, than I am normally waking up for work... What is wrong with me 😅 #tolkien #luinmenel #wilwarin

The Happiest Birthday wishes to Frodo and Bilbo 🥳🥳 And the Happiest Hobbit Day to everyone 🥳🎊 Today, I have started my annual re read of Lord of the Rings. I will be doing that with the bigger group under the guide of @breabird.bsky.social Check her Substack. And now, time to read... #tolkien

48 years ago, today it finally happened: the magnum opus of Professor's work was published. 4 years after his death, under watchful eye of Christopher Tolkien, The Silmarillion saw the daylight. The detailed legendarium and histories of Arda from before the One Ring was forged. #wilwarin #tolkien

Today I found one of the best pieces of art depicting Smaug and Bard. I was always fascinated by the Japanese art - it was always something different, more spiritual than its Western counterpart. #wilwarin #luinmenel #tolkien Bard vs Smaug in an Ukiyo-e style by Ergo

Ugh... First day in office after a loooong period of working from home and recent holiday... End me now, please... #workfromhome #work #killmenow

52 years ago, Tolkien boarded the last of the ships going West. His works changed the world of literature and were and still are an inspiration for countless new ideas. We, who found a safe haven in Middle Earth, salute you. Farewell. Namarië. #wilwarin #luinmenel #tolkien

Autumn was always the Tolkien season for me. September especially, as it is a month when the Silmarillion was first published (1977) and the Hobbit was first published (1937). It is also a month when we remember Professor's death - 2nd of September. #wilwarin #luinellë #menelluin #Tolkien

LOTR unreleased scene: Gandalf narrates the ORIGINAL prologue! 🧙‍♂️

Happy Birthday to one and only Billy Boyd 🎉🎊 You are still my favourite Hobbit - and no one will convince me that Sam and Frodo did better job (without you we would never have Gandalf the White) 😅

Rings of Power rewatch part 2 Season 2, Episode 2. There will not be a lot of writing here as there are no words is a tongue of Men, Elves or Ents to describe how I felt in this moment. “I am your partner, no more, no less. A sharer of gifts. Annatar.” #luinmenel #wilwarin #tolkien

Found in the depths of Pinterest. Little Tyelpe 🥲 Love this art. #wilwarin #luinmenel #tolkien

Happy 67th birthday to John Howe, the artist of many Middle-Earth illustrations and chief conceptual designer on The Lord of the Rings

Time for another kitty jab 🙀 #cat #vet

Today is World Calligraphy Day, and hopefully you know that #Tolkien was an accomplished calligrapher. He used different styles of handwriting and alphabets to create depth in his stories. Not just an author, poet and scholar, but an artist, too! All images © The Tolkien Estate #BlueSky

I went to a secondhand bookshop, as One does sometimes, for a book about Terry Pratchett. I did buy the book I wanted, but I also bought couple of books I did not anticipate. I think I got quite a bargain. Of course these are Polish versions - now I need to get them in original. #wilwarin #tolkien

Just added new Tolkien books to my Amazon Wishlist. I am fully aware that I will never have them, cause it would take a lottery win to buy them all. Why am I doing it to myself? 🥲 #wilwarin #luinmenel #tolkien

So, we got back (couple of hours ago). Nothing bad, just blocked tear duct. Got some jabs for inflammation, and they took a swab of her eyelids to check for any bad thingies. Green/orange eyes are a result of eye drops that turn neon green under UV light and oxygen. Next visit - Thursday #vet #cat

Plans for retirement? I will not live to see my retirement... I will be worked to death, because my country is stupid. What is the stupid idea to go on retirement when you do not have enough strenght to live on it and do anything with it?

*neighs* It's not like Empire to dabble in rumours... 👀

Preciousss newsss... #TheRingsOfPower Season 3 has officially entered production. Amazon took to social media to announce cameras are now rolling on the Lord Of The Rings spin-off's latest chapter, teasing Sauron's return in a new video. Watch it here: www.empireonline.com/tv/news/the-...

It was this day, 71 years ago on Thursday, 29th of July 1954 that the Fellowship of the Ring was first published. First time I read this book I was 10 years old, I think. From that moment it stayed with me permanently. #wilwarin #luinmenel #tolkien

Do you use emojis in your posts, comments or texts? What are the most used ones? I heard it is a millenials thing only and now no one is using them anymore. But how can I show the emotions if I am unable to send a little yellow face (and with a freaking character limit). What are your thoughts? 🤔

Oh this looks marvelous. The pose and the conviction in his eyes...

Hmm... I think the time is right to do a little rewatch of The Rings of Power season 2. What do you think? 😊 #wilwarin #luinmenel #tolkien
