My name is Samantha and I'm a broke college student who watches too much TV and attempts to cosplay. My queue is always on and never-ending.
I tend to obsess. You have been warned.
The donate button is for those who feel charitable enough to help me survive my continuing education.

Beren and Luthien
“This story not only was very important in the early tales of Middle Earth, but it had particular meaning for Tolkien in his life. As a young man he had fallen in love with Edith Bratt… He and his young wife took a walk in a wood that was filled with hemlock and she danced for him and sang for him and that image, that very very personal image of the woman he loved, became the image that he used to describe the meeting of Beren and Luthien. Tolkien identified so closely with this story that when Edith died, he had the name Luthien written on her tombstone…And when he eventually himself died, the name Beren is on his stone.”
