Part one of our two-part exploration of Tolkien's appendices, this episode covers the most interesting nuggets and lore extracts found in Appendix A. Topics include the history of Sauron and Numenor in the Second Age, the Witch King's brutal connection to the stewards of Gondor, and a tragic, beautiful series of vignettes from Aragorn and Arwen's love story.
