I can't really decide. What about Beren going through that valley? And Húrin slaying those trolls and being captured, and never giving in though his family were cursed? I think Húrin might clinch it for me, although all of Túrin's deeds have moved me greatly. It is in my opinion the most emotional story by Tolkien.
