“’Let the heir of the House of Hador see the light of your swords!’ And the sun glittered on fifty blades as they leaped forth, and the court rang with the battle-cry of the Edain of the North: Lacho calad! Drego morn! Flame Light! Flee Night!
Then at last Húrin sprang into his saddle, and his golden banner was unfurled, and the trumpets sang again in the morning.” ~ Tolkien

There is little more I can say here except, this is where Tolkien’s words speak to my heart. Let the trumpets sing again in the morning!

We continue our saga of the Children of Húrin by starting at the beginning with Húrin himself waging war against Morgoth. The Dragon-Helm goes to war upon the marches of Thangorodrim. (at Middle Earth)
“When evil is allowed to compete with good, evil has an emotional populist appeal that wins out unless good men and women stand as a vanguard against abuse.”
