Maybe I've been thinking too much about Northumbrian worm myths but I wonder if Glaurung could have been tamed or at least appeased by giving him milk...

#glaurung #silmarillion #coh #the whole thing with milk is weird tbh but both the lambton and laidly worm stories feature it #weird because the worms always seem to be reptilian or maybe amphibian #why do they like milk so much?#maybe if nargothrond had just left a trough of milk out for him he would have left them alone #also now thinking of a laidly worm au where glaurung is like margaret but her brother wouldn't kiss her and break the curse #so she plays with túrin and nienor out of spite
