The Final Hours of MORIA | BALIN'S doomed expedition
The Book of Mazarbul is the only record in Middle-earth written by people as they meet their end — and if you read it in order, you can watch a kingdom go dark, one line at a time. This is the story of Balin's doomed expedition to reclaim Moria — the lost dwarf-kingdom of Khazad-dûm — told forward, in real time, through the dwarves' own journal. Five years of triumph, and then the final hours: the orcs, the Watcher in the Water, the drums in the deep, the Balrog and a last entry that stops mid-sentence. The footage and imagery in this video are used for commentary and analysis.
