I enjoyed reading this very much. I read some similar thoughts here, https://open.substack.com/pub/bornofwonder/p/a-very-lord-of-the-rings-advent-pt, and I think I’ll just copy and paste what I wrote in reply to that post, because it’s equally applicable. Thanks for the great read!

I also like to think about how (in the books, at least) Gimli gets a glimpse of the Glittering Caves of Aglarond, a glimpse of the wonders he will experience in the next age of Middle Earth, though, at the time, he has no way to be certain that he will even survive even that very night at Helms Deep.
