Close enough, though. I agree with joonitree, the narrative stands as one of Tolkien's best tragic stories. Heartbreaking.

(nothing can beat beren and luthien). so, can i just say that i might cry?

Read the Silmarillion in its entirety. 2.) At least perused the Lay of Beleriand, Unfinished Tales, and the War of the Jewels. 3.) Know who Húrin is, and why his child(ren) would be the one (some) of most important people in Middle Earth. Does anyone know if it's going to be a narrative or a novel?
