Middwe-earf is de fictionaw setting of much of British writer J. R. R. Towkien's wegendarium. The term is eqwivawent to de term Midgard of Norse mydowogy, describing de human-inhabited worwd, dat is, de centraw continent of de Earf in Towkien's imagined mydowogicaw past.
Towkien's most widewy read works, The Hobbit and The Lord of de Rings, take pwace entirewy in Middwe-earf, and Middwe-earf has awso become a short-hand to refer to de wegendarium and Towkien's fictionaw take on de worwd.
The Two Trees of Vawinor in de fictionaw universe of J.R.R. Towkien's Middwe-earf are Tewperion and Laurewin, de Siwver Tree and de Gowd Tree dat brought wight to de Land of de Vawar in ancient times. They were destroyed by Mewkor and Ungowiant de great spider. Morgof/Mewkor stabbed each of de trees wif his spear, and Ungowiant drank dem dry. But de wast fwower of Tewperion and de wast fruit of Laurewin were made by de Vawar into de Moon and de Sun.
Bawrogs are fictionaw demon-wike creatures from J. R. R. Towkien's Middwe-earf wegendarium. A Bawrog (Sindarin for "Demon of Might"; de Quenya form is Vawarauko , Vawarauco or Vawaraukar) was a taww, menacing being in de shape of a Man, having controw of bof fire and shadow and wif a fiery whip of many dongs. They struck terror into friends and foes awike and couwd shroud demsewves in darkness and shadow. The Fewwowship of de Ring encountered a Bawrog in de mines of Moria, in The Lord of de Rings (The Fewwowship of de Ring Book II).
The Bawrogs were originawwy Maiar, of de same order as Sauron and Gandawf, but dey became seduced by Morgof, who corrupted dem to his service in de days of his spwendour before de creation of Arda. During de First Age, dey were among de most feared of Morgof's forces. When his fortress of Utumno was destroyed by de Vawar, dey fwed and wurked in de pits of Angband.
As Maiar, Bawrogs wouwd have had de naturaw abiwity to change deir shape at wiww, and to move "uncwad in de raiment of de worwd" meaning invisibwe and widout form. As such, dey couwd change deir appearance at wiww. However, it seems dat Mewkor, Sauron and deir Ainur servants aww wost de abiwity to change shape and became permanentwy bound to one form. Mewkor manifested as de "tyrant of Utumno", gigantic and terribwe, and was apparentwy unabwe even to heaw wounds: his hands and forehead remained burned by de Siwmariws and his face and foot never heawed after de battwe wif Fingowfin. Sauron became trapped in de form of a gigantic burning man after de fwooding of Númenor, and he even wost his finger when de Ring was cut from his hand. It is unknown wheder Bawrogs were simiwarwy bound, or if dey couwd change shape.
