As Turgon builds the city of Gondolin in secret, the bitter seeds of distrust between the Noldor and the Sindar find fertile ground, for Melian warns Thingol, "Their swords and their counsels shall have two edges."

Join Me, Michael, and Dan in this discussion of Chapter 15. We talk about Rohan on steroids, a philologist's greatest punishment, and why Michael has to eat crow.
