Beyond the Dawn/Awesome

• Beren making comments and jokes in torture chamber.

‘…More of it, it was my order not to cripple you. I can take it back. Do you want it? Do you want to die here naked, in blood and torment?’
‘Ela,’ Beren tried to chuckle. ‘I was born naked, in blood and torment. What’s there to surprise me?’

Translated by Tauriel

• Beren claims the Silmarill from Morgoth, making a bet that he could take the stone and walk ten steps with it.
  • Morgoth suggested that Silmarill would burn Beren's hand to the bone, because all humans are marred. He was wrong.
