How exactly did Luthien get to the Halls of Mandos and what exactly was the song she sang that moved Mandos to release Beren to her? Tolkien, ever the International Man of Mystery, doesn’t exactly tell us. But Clara and Aaron have some ideas. They also discuss how this particular tale marries myth with history and why that makes it so important within the lore of Middle Earth. Plus, Aaron offers to put his body on the line for the good of the pod and Clara sends the souls of several fruit flies zooming to the Halls of Mandos.
