It was very interesting to see how stories such as Beren and Luthien or Turin Turambar had changed over time. I especially loved The Nauglafring! It echoed the story Der Ring Des Nibelungen, especially in the the cursed gold that corrupts all owners and the process of slaying the dragon from below, even including the avoidance of its poisonous blood.
