Tolkien's Timeless Tales

              Some may assume that I do not play a role in the events of Beren and Lúthien, but I am involved regarding the Silmarils.   When Beren falls in love with Lúthien and Thingol tasks him with bringing him a Silmaril, it seems like an impossible task, but he is determined to be with Lúthien.   Morgoth has possession of the Silmarils, though he is burned by the jewels.   In his crown, he is constantly tormented and burned, never allowed to rest, because of my blessing that anyone who holds them with evil intent shall be burned.   Eventually, Beren goes on a quest with Lúthien to steal one of the Silmarils and they are successful.   Beren is not burned by the Silmaril, as he has proper intentions and that is what the fate of the Silmaril is.   But, the fate of the other jewels is not to go with Beren, breaking his knife when he tries to take the others.   They flee, but Carcharoth ...
