Tolkien’sThe Lord of the Rings.And one important discovery is happening in the Khazad-dum.
Prince Durin admitted to secretly mining mithril from the depths of Khazad-dum.
Elrond follows his friend to the tunnel, forcing Durin to explain.
He is mining a unique substance, but the process is dangerous.
As such,King Durin III (Peter Mullan)has put restrictions on the work.
When Elrond asks what it is, Durin calls it “gray glitter.”

However, Prince Durin gives Elrond a shard of mithril asa token of friendship.
While the two discuss the substance, the mithril mine caves in, trapping four Dwarves.
The Elf channeled all his light into this tree to protect it.

Meanwhile, the Balrog channeled his hatred into it to destroy the tree.
When lightning struck the tree, it created a new power.
Elrond refuses to confirm if the Dwarves found mithril because it would break his oath to Durin.

To do this, Elrond would have to break his promise to Durin.
Of course, fans know that all the rings do not stop there.
Through its magical properties, mithril saved the Elves and soon the Dwarves, but it is dangerous.
Sauron is planning something, and these mithril rings are a part of it.
It’s worth ten times its weight in gold and does not tarnish.
Men used the term Moria-silver or true-silver.
The Doors of Durin use an alloy called ithildin, which Celebrimbor makes at the beginning ofSeason 2.
These doors guard Moria against foes with the riddle “Speak, friend, and enter.”
InThe Fellowship of the Ring, Frodo and his companions encounter these doors on their journey.
And are we feeling sorry for the Orcs?
