Tolkien's Kullervo and Túrin are both gifted knives as children, but while Túrin immediately gives his away, Kullervo swears to use to get revenge on those who have wronged him.

#kullervo #túrin turambar #coh #the story of kullervo #tolkien #this is a big point in túrin's development as a separate character I think #not just a proxy for kullervo #though at this point kullervo has suffered a lot more than túrin has #most of his pain is still to come #it shows túrin has a level of compassion kullervo lacks #tolkien's kullervo only cares for his twin sister and even then doesn't seem great about it
