Since this is so short, I will try to have several more updates by later today and tomorrow. Sorry it took so long! I have to be in the right mood to write this stuff. ;)
Chapter 8 / Of the Darkening of Valinor / Shit Gets Serious
Melkor made his sneaky, douche-y escape, and the Valar didn't catch him. He went to Ungoliant, a giant creepy-ass spider thing that Melkor corrupted into his service. That doesn't mean that he found a spider and was like, "Join me, evil-looking creature!" but that Ungoliant was probably one of the Maiar or something. (Shit, we don't actually know. Maybe he did recruit spiders. First thing I would do if I were a villain.)
She didn't actually feel like working for him because she just wanted to eat and avoid doing work. Whoa, maybe she's my soul mate. She also did not want to piss off the Valar. But Melkor got her to work for him again by promising her goodies. He did not really mean it, though.
They went some place high up on a mountain, the name of which was Hyarmentir. Just make a weird sneeze sound and that's close enough to the name of wherever they were. The Valar weren't vigilant (when are they ever vigilant) at the place where Melkor and Ungoliant went, and even if they had been, she wove a super dark cloak of darkness that was so dark Tolkien described it as an Unlight. So no one could see them while they did stuff in the darkness…Oh.
Melkor looked in the direction of Valinor and he chuckled an evil chuckle. Chuckles are evil because they sound pretty fucking evil. Anyway, he and Ungoliant decided to be party crashers. They leapt down the mountain covered in Ungoliant's cool Unlight dark cloak thing.
It was festival time, which Melkor well knew. Ooh, that sounds ominous. In other words, the Valar were throwing themselves a fucking party when they should have been working. Manwë had good intentions, however; he wanted the Noldor to fucking kiss and make up. Fëanor and Fingolfin had a special moment. Fingolfin said, "Dude, you are like a full-brother to me. I love you. Also, I'm super nice." As they stood before Manwë, kissing and making up, the lights of the Two Trees mingled, and then Melkor showed up to wreck shit.
Melkor killed the Two Trees dead. Ungoliant helped. People were sad.
Without the strange, light-emitting trees, Valinor was very dark. The darkness was not only literal, but metaphorical. The metaphorical darkness made people very sad indeed.
Melkor got his vengeance. He probably chuckled afterwards, too.
