Even Other Balrogs Feared Him | Sauron Obeyed Him | Lord Of The Rings

I served Morgoth for three hundred years. I fought in his armies. I followed his commands. I saw his greatest weapons unleashed upon Middle-earth. But there was one being even Morgoth's lieutenants feared to cross. One warrior who commanded absolute authority over every servant of darkness—including Sauron himself. His name was Gothmog. Lord of Balrogs. Captain of Angband. Morgoth's champion. And he was the most terrifying creature I ever encountered. This is the story of the Balrog who made other Balrogs look weak. The demon who killed High Kings. The warrior even Sauron obeyed without question. The story of Gothmog—and why he was Morgoth's greatest weapon.
