OMG
So, you know how Blind Guardian released that unfinished track from Nightfall? There’s another one, and guys… it’s a serenade…. by Melkor to the Silmarils, I’m LIVING
Melkor has something important to say.
I’ve never met a person who referred to their work as an “oeuvre” that I didn’t want to punch in the teeth.
dark / with chaos, I’ll escape, at last, alone and dry, / not winded though, a mouth with teeth, a page, a scream

What happens when we don’t dread our own body breaking
We can see the dark clouds start to seethe above us
We were never meant to be such vessels of physical form
You doubt and you’re desperate
You wear both your cross and your hammer
Such beautiful dreams of violence
In them your tongue is made of silver
But we don’t fight like animals, we fight like godsIt tastes like salt and rust, drips down the side of his face and smears behind his teeth. The weight of the crown presses down heavy and cold and he can barely see through the iron, the silver glint and as they dance around each other, blood through water he cannot tell where one ends and the other begin. It is bright and furious, some summer storm rolling in from a dark distance, all destruction and hate for a moment and when the dust settles what will be left but the ruin of them.
It will be the ruin of them both, and he has never felt so alive.
He is laughing as the hammer comes down, again and again, leaving pits from which darkness flowers, wraps around them like a veil of dirt and death and rage.
“You wish for death, o king, then let me give it to you.”

Melkor and Thû React to Noldor Sass, Part 1 of ???– RivkaZ 2016
My blog’s reaction sketches are getting out of hand.
I need to do some real costume sketches for Sauron’s wolfy warlord outfit because I like where that cape idea was going…

Myths Transformed has some of the clearest snippets of Melkor and Sauron’s motivations and personalities, and this is a great break-down for those interested!
I spend a lot of time thinking about one the points mentioned here, i.e. why a maia whose core motivations are centered around order and control would ally himself to a vala who is bent on “nihilism” (or in my personal interpretation, chaos / anarchy). Like many, I have my own ways of interpreting the constellation of info-dots left to us by Tolkien, but this offers a very reasonable explanation. As I said– very good break down over all. 🙂
[Sauron] loved order and co-ordination and disliked all confusion and wasteful friction. It was the apparent will and power of Melkor to effect his designs quickly and masterfully that had first attracted Sauron to him.
