The True Origin of Orcs!
Orcs… the evil servants of the Dark Lord. Hideous creatures of darkness; corrupted so far, that their only desire is the extermination of all that can be good, and the only cure for their evil is to slaughter them all in turn. In all wars between good and evil, they were the most numerous minions, their endless hordes terrorizing the Free Peoples of Middle-earth since before the first sunlight ever shone upon the mortal world. But despite their almost universal presence, they remain one of the great mysteries of Arda. And though many loremasters among the Houses of Men claim that they descended from corrupted Elves… we know that this is not the case! ──────────────────────── Help us make these videos by supporting us on Patreon: ➤ https://www.patreon.com/MysteriesofWesternesse ──────────────────────── Our German Channel: ➤ Mythen aus Westernis: [https://www.youtube.com/c/MythenAusWesternis] ──────────────────────── Content Sources: ➤ The Silmarillion: [https://t1p.de/txhx] ➤ Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth: [https://t1p.de/0u7j]. ➤ The Lord of the Rings (Volume I - III): [https://t1p.de/79rk]. ➤ The Hobbit: https://t1p.de/6vp6] ➤ Beren and Lúthien: [https://t1p.de/cccl]. ➤ The Children of Húrin: [https://t1p.de/9c69] ➤ The Fall of Gondolin: [https://t1p.de/6mvf]. ➤ Eldamo: [https://eldamo.org/index.html] ➤ The Lord of the Rings Appendices: [https://t1p.de/59ow]. ➤ The History of Middle-Earth: [https://t1p.de/x93k]. ➤ Letters of J.
