Description
The Valar mourn the loss of the Two Trees, and Fëanor’s corruption. They save one flower from Telperion and one fruit from Laurelin; and they work together to use these to create the Moon and the Sun. The sun rises in the west just as Fingolfin and his host reach Middle-Earth.
Three friends read and react to the greatest story you've never heard — the Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien.

"Then Anar arose in glory, and the first dawn of the Sun was like a great fire upon the towers of the Pelóri: the clouds of Middle-earth were kindled, and there was heard the sound of many waterfalls. Then indeed Morgoth was dismayed, and he descended into the uttermost depths of Angband, and withdrew his servants, sending forth great reek and dark cloud to hide his land from the light of the Day-star."
