Morgoth's Curse: Self-sustaining or inescapeable? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

High King Fingolfin · 08-06-2007, 11:21 AM

This is a subject that has been nagging at me ever since I read CoH. Was the curse that Morgoth laid on Hurin and his family fulfilled entirely through Morgoth's malice, or was it from their own pride and many flaws? In other words, could they have escaped Morgoth's curse had they acted dfferently, or was their path inevitable from the moment that Morgoth cursed them? I have not been able to decide myself, but I would like to see what everyone else thinks.
