The dwarves didn't have the weapon the horn of helmhammerhand, it's literally named after a King of Rohan

Frodo didn't ward off the Nazgul at Cirith Ungol, it was Shelob...

Only the witchking had the prophecy about his death, we dont know if it would have worked against the other ring wraiths

I'd like to know what happened to the dead spirits that inhabited the Dead Marshes after the ring was destroyed. We know what happened to the dead under the mountain, what about those in the swamp? Were they finally released? There were even elveses and orcses. Did they go to the Halls? I didn't even know orcs had souls. Where do their souls go? What happens to them?

Okay. Khamúl was killed in Lothlorien? Then how come eight Nazghul burned out at Mount Doom, when the One Ring was destroyed?

Love this breakdown. As a massive big nerd/fan of Tolkien and all things Middle Earth, this video was wonderful to watch.

The One Ring ruled all the other Rings of Power: even the Three Rings of the Elves were affected by it, although Sauron did not dominate the wearers of the Three, and the Seven rings of the Dwarves did not allow him to successfully control their wearers either, (although it did exacerbate the worst aspects of their characters) because of 'resistant' nature of the Dwarves. It is clear, after the destruction of the Ruling Ring, that the Three lose their powers, and that the remaining Nazgul are destroyed in the eruption of Mount Doom after the Ring falls into it. The loss of the One would have meant the loss of the Nine's power to preserve the Ringwraiths. The Nazgul were, ultimately, mortal Men, whose natural lifespan was unnaturally extended by the rings they wore. Without the magic of the rings, they would have been as vulnerable as any other human caught in a hail of volcanic ejecta. The Witch-King had already been stabbed through the neck by Eowyn.

Well done. It is an amazing video

If the Nazgul were over 4000 years old, I would assume when the one ring was destroyed the Nazgul would turn to dust, being originally human and as we all do, eventually.

Very well done! Very well. I've read the Tolkien's works since first finding "The Hobbit" in my school library when I was 12. That was in 1972. I round the "Rings" trilogy in a bookstore a year later and I've read all or part of all of these almost every year since. I finally got my hands on the "Silmarillian" a few years later. "The Book of Lost Tales" came along as well. The "Guide to Middle Earth" has it's interesting way of looking at it all but the Appendices do more for me. This has been very nicely put together. Your artwork is especially pleasing, and your hard work and effort show. You have a lot to be proud of!

Cool Video

The Nazgul are my favorite villains, I was always terrified of those black cloaks and skeletal features, not to mention their voices. Even in the animated versions they had a terrible metallic tone to their voices that just cut through you as froze my blood. Scary what you said that some in the future may have tried to resurrect them through magic or science. Interesting. I do wonder where all their “weaknesses” are from and if truly Tolkien’s ideas. Somehow pain, cold, sound and such doesn’t seem like it would bother something DEAD, and alive only through dark magic. Why would they get cold?? Water seems like it would just piss them off by washing away their cloaks and horses, but I don’t think it truly hurt them. They may have to dry their cloaks or get new ones-(it’s been 4000 years, come on now guys you can afford a new cloak) Sunshine seems like it would weaken them and blind them certainly, like any evil creature. Fire? I don’t know, again they might be annoyed at it burning off their clothes but if it could hurt or destroy them then they aren’t immortal. Why wouldn’t someone just shoot them with burning arrows? Same with the various weapons, why not just kill them with those? They’ve been around 4000 years-wouldn’t someone have stabbed them with an Elven blade or something? Smell? Well they don’t actually HAVE noses, yet that one Nazgul was SNIFFING them in the part where they were hiding under a tree and they’re being hunted. So that’s a faux pas for sure. I doubt they’d be offended by you sharting yourself once you see one jump out from behind a tree. They’re smell is probably selective and only used for hunting. They’re dead, and decomposed flesh reeks, if they could smell themselves then, well, they’re probably going to get a subscription to Duke Cannon for each other’s Christmas gifts. 🤷🏼

Would gunpowder become more widespread in the Fourth Age? What happened to Shelob and her spawn? Edit: damn autocorrect

Please just take this as constructive criticism. First off, I absolutely enjoyed this, and I learned a lot more than I figured I would tbh. But the one real complaint I would make is that your voice sounds very subdued to the point of being robotic, you may be using a speech AI though, in which case it can't be helped, but if it's you speaking - I'd have enjoyed it more if you sounded just like maybe 15% more enthusiastic about and interested in what you're discussing. Still I left a like and I'm gonna subscribe because this was genuinely entertaining and informative

Mtg art is *chefs kiss*

definitely informative. But I wonder what Ai would do if it couldn’t use the world “also” 800 times

The best troop or army would be nice. Archer from elve,uruk kai orc,death soldiers,etc… could be intereting to see witcht one ist the strongest. The best beast to,troll,spider,warg,balrog,etc…

I would think the nazgul ended when the ring was destroyed. The idea of anyone even remotely mad enough to even bother with anything out of Mordor is ludicrious. Sauron and his minions were something not forgotten. Only a fool would want to bother with any of that.

They weren’t just kings. The kings thing comes from the movies. In the books he said they were great leaders of men. Yea, a king is a leader but you know who else is a leader? A politician who looks out for the small folk. The town healer that cures the sick. A Warrior that is loved by his men but feared and respected by his enemies.

Please lets us know, if there is any information on what happened to places like rivendell and the grey havens, and the realm of tharanduil after the elves left middle earth.

A nice introduction at the start, but I felt it lacked in substance afterwards.

The Ring Wraiths were empowered and controled by the one ring. When the One Ring was destroyed, the Ring Wraiths were destroyed! The power that kept these spirits in Arda was taken away, so those spirits were swept away!

Full of inaccuracies, like A LOT OF THEM. And that AI voice cannot even pronounce a lot of key names.

What happened to the spirits in the Barrow Downs after the fall or Sauron?

All intents and purposes the Nazgul are described as useless and nerfed to hell and back yet they give the fellowship so much trouble and are so fierce.

There are some mistakes: like Frodo and Sam met Shelob in Cirith Ungol. Cirith Ungol means Spider Pass. Ungolianth was the matriarch of all evil spiders. Shelob was a good enough guard of the pass on her own.

There is no indication (at least in LotR itself) that there was any prophecy about the deaths of any of the Nazgul other than their chieftain.

Nephilam

They disintegrated when Sauron did

Since the Nazgul started out as men, when they died they would go to the Halls of Mandos.

What became of Tom Bombadil in The Fourth Age?

Fel beast. I just like saying it.

i think more they nazgul are set free since they are not more enslaves by sauron , and get healed in the halls of Mandos

Although by no means proof, as recently pointed out on Darth Gandalf's channel covering this same topic, the fact Khamul is referred to as the Easterling might strongly imply he was the only one from that direction, whether it be Rhun or realms further east (perhaps as far away as the Red Mountains). There seems to be an allusion to Khamul being akin to someone like Attila the Hun or perhaps Genghis or Kublai Khan. I think this line of thinking makes some sense then that Khamul would be second in command because he once ruled the second largest territory after Angmar. It would also make sense that the remaining Nazgul would be of lesser renown than Khamul, but yes certainly if the line of thinking that Khamul was uniquely Eastern among the 9, then it would follow logically at least two of the others probably came from Harad and/or Far Harad while at least two more came from the North and two others came from Numenor.

Wait what? Gandalf created the flood that washed away the nazgul;s horses? I thought it was Glorfindal.

😍😍😍✅✅✅

That narration is occasionally accurate, but mostly not

Nazgul are kinda weak

Was this video made by AI?

Always amused at how AI voice narrators have such pronunciation issues with proper names...

Both ai generated voice and bad facts. Nah...
