“Then Túrin bowed before them, and took his leave. And soon after he put on the Dragon-helm, and took arms, and went away to the north-marches, and was joined to the elven-warriors who there waged unceasing war upon the Orcs and all servants and creatures of Morgoth.” ~Tolkien

I remember being 17 years old, riding my bike back from the bookstore where I had pre-ordered The Children of Húrin. As soon as I got hope I opened it and began to read. I wept as I read because I was reading new, beautiful words written by Tolkien, when I thought I had already read them all. Since then I have been captivated by the story of the family of men who defined the Dark Lord and suffered for it. And I have long desired to posses the Dragon-helm itself. Thanks to our Patreon supporters, we were able to recreate the cover art of the book by Alan Lee. Many more photos to come as we tell the story of the House of Hador and it’s war with Morgoth through pictures!
