“And now you shall know him: a stabber in the dark, treacherous to foes, faithless to friends, and a curse unto his kin, Turin sone of Hurin! But the worst of all his deeds you shall feel in yourself.”

“I also have been meshed in the doom of the Children of Hurin, and thus with words have slain one that I loved.”

" Oh yes. My beloved Czolgosz. Faithful through all weathers. Except very bad weather. Or any kind of precipitation at all. A light mist and he would become traitorous and seek shelter with whomever. Bu my shadow. A better, kinder shadow.”
