In this scattershot series, we’ll be delving “too greedily and too deep,” prying gems out of the glorious rough that is the extended legendarium of Tolkien’s world. This includes drawing on The Lord of the Rings itself, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion, The Children of Húrin, and the History of Middle-earth (or HoMe) books.
Previously, on Tolkien’s Orcs…
I concluded in part 1, which covered the monstrous hoi polloi of Middle-earth as presented in
The Hobbit and in
The Lord of the Rings, that Orcs are driven to mayhem and frankly, the will to do anything substantive
by the power of Sauron. Which is to say, when there’s no Dark Lord in the neighborhood to give them some moxie, they become idle (relatively speaking) and their numbers stay down. But what about before all that? What happened before Sauron even became the head honcho of evil?

Dwayne Hoskinsâ heart may only function at one-third its capacity, but he pours every bit of it into his volunteer work at a local food pantry.
Hoskins runs the food ministry at Hollywood Church of the Brethren, off Ferry Road in Stafford County. He got involved with the mission in 2014, more than a year after he was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and an enlarged heart.
Hoskins was 48 at the time and had spent more than 30 years working on his hands and knees installing floors. When he learned he had the same illness that killed his father and impaired his brother, the Stafford resident didnât take it well.
