Tak pravil Maedhros v přísaze, || So spoke Maedhros in the oath, stejně Maglor, jehož každý zná, || As did Maglor, who is known by all, Celegorm, Curufin taktéž, || Celegorm and Curufin as well, dvojčata, Caranthir. || The twins and Caranthir. Kdo přísahu slyšel, zachvěl se, || Whoever heard the oath trembled, zazní slova nezrušitelná, || The irrevocable words rang, lhostejno, co pravda, co lež, || Whether they were right or wrong je nedobytný cíl. || Their goal cannot be reached.

Well, the yellow stockings are so exciting, I mean:
Can we just talk for a moment about Thorin wearing ‘yellow stockings’?
“There Grímhild dwelt,
guileful in counsel,
grimhearted queen
grey with wisdom,
with lore of leechcraft,
lore of poison,
with chill enchantment
and with changing spells.”
– J.R.R. Tolkien: Völsungakviða en nýja
Not gonna lie, Grímhild sounds cool.
Feanor was the first, who predicted the end of Infinity War.

I want to leave the JD Vance and destiel memes aside for just a moment to tell you all guys that I, personally, as a Catholic, mourn the loss of Pope Francis.
Over the 12 years that he spent at the helm of the Holy See, Pope Francis proved himself one of the most progressive and reform-minded Supreme Pontiff we have had, perhaps ever, the pleasure of being led by.
For all his personal failings and blunders -and believe me, there's a list- he did tremendous work on dragging Canon Law and the institutions that make up the Catholic Church towards becoming a better and more modern version of themselves. I can only hope that whoever is chosen as his successor will be even half as committed to internal reform as Francis was, and that he will continue the work Francis sadly leaves unfinished.
Descanse en Paz.
We’re going to find the author by process of elimination.
Tolkien, Czech Republic, mythology, anything I like
