The Red Book Podcast ran for 12 episodes. This is the third episode. Just as Sauron concentrated his power in the One Ring, Morgoth dispersed his power into Arda itself. What does this mean for Morgoth and the inhabitants of Middle-earth? How does this relate to the breaking of the designs of the Valar in the Marring of Arda? I explore the corruption of Melkor after he descended into the world and claimed it as his own.
