Week 1-4

In the story so far there are two brothers Hurin and Huor. Their home was attacked by orcs so they escaped to find somewhere else to live. Then they are taken by these eagles and they go to a secret place where the elves live. Then they live there for the rest of their childhood and stay their as if they are family. Then once they are older Hurin asks  permission from the king to return home. One of the elves suggest to the king that they should not leave because he  is afraid that one of the two will tell someone where they live but the king allowed them to go back anyway because he trusted him. They come home by riding on the eagles again. When they get home , family and friends ask where they were for all these years, but instead they kept quiet because of the promise that is made.  Then later on in the chapter Hurin has a children. Also there is a war between the men and Morgoths forces of evil. In the end of the battle the men loose and are all executed by the orcs and are steaked. Hurin is taken away by Morgoth and is held captive by him. They both have a conversation about the future how bad Morgoth will make it. At the same time Hurin is in denial that any of this will happen so Morgoth uses magic or whatever and shows some kind of illusion of the future and it shows a bunch of slave doing slave work. Even though he sees all of this take place he still doesn't believe it will happen. While all of this is happening Hurin's children escape from the aftermath of the war and try to find somewhere else to live. They believe that the elves are held somewhere near the mountains so they go there. They almost get caught by these warriors called the Easterlings, but they didn't.

"There, as the Sun westered and the shadowes of the Ered Wethrin grew dark, Huor fell pierced with a venomed arrow in the eye, and all the valiant me of Hador were slain about him in a heap; and the Orcs hewed their heads and piled them as a mound of gold in the sunset."
