Death is just another path - one that we all must take.

let me sing you the song of my feelings. gandalf, like all the other wizards, is a maia. they have been around since the very fucking creation of arda, not to mention middle earth - they have been around since everyone lived on fucking valinor, gods, spirits, and elves all in one happy perfect gorgeous timeless place. 

then like two thousand years ago when sauron decided to start being a massive dickbag, the valar (who are p. much gods) sent the istari, a badass elite force of maiar now trapped in the form of wizened old men, to help combat said dickbaggery. that would be gandalf, saruman, radagast, alatar and pallando. 

so what you’re seeing here is gandalf, the ageless maia spirit, recalling his home from which he has been fundamentally banished for the last two thousand fucking years. he knows his purpose, he loves the people of middle earth, but how could you ever forget the white shores of valinor? two thousand years away from your home and suddenly you’re asked to recall it, your memory now so vague from years walking middle earth in the shape of a man, and your heart just clenches into a fist and you’re wrestling with that lump in your throat because, you know what, you have to be strong for this precious little hobbit. because you have to be strong for the entire gondorian army and you can’t weep for the home that you left behind because you have to be the strong one.

and what you’re seeing here, that makes this gif set so magical, so believable, is Sir Ian fucking McKellen portraying this emotion so perfectly it makes me want to gargle bleach and throw myself into a vat of acid. 

ouch

Death is just another path - one that we all must take.
