Balin’s Tomb.
Balin’s Tomb was the tomb of Balin, Lord of Moria. Balin was killed at the hands of Moria orcs in T.A. 2994 in Dimrill Dale. He was promptly buried in a tomb in the center of the Chamber of Mazarbul, Balin’s former seat, which itself was located off the north end of the Twenty-first Hall. The Fellowship of the Ring, journeying through Moria in 3019, found his tomb. A shaft of light from outside of the mountain fell directly onto Balin’s Tomb, though it is not known what the shaft originally lit. The Chamber was the site of a battle between the Fellowship and a group of attacking orcs.
The tomb was made of a single oblong block, about two feet high, underneath a large slab of white stone. Runes were cut deeply into the slab:
BALIN FUNDINUL UZBADKHAZADDUMU BALINSONOVFUNDINLORDOVMORIA
Paraphrased, it says: “Balin Fundinul Uzbad Khazaddumu” - “Balin Son of Fundin Lord of Moria.”
The runes carved into Balin’s Tomb were Angerthas Moria, used before the flight of the Dwarves. The top, larger runes (the first three lines) are written in Khuzdul, while the smaller ones of the final line below, were in the Common Speech, written with Angerthas Erebor.The Dwarves never used their “true” Khuzdul names, not even in inscriptions, but rather their names in a Mannish dialect of the Northmen. Tolkien, having translated all uses of Mannish into modern English and Norse, rendered these names as “Balin” and “Fundin”, as he did the other words in the last line of the inscription. The name “Moria” was used, for by the time of the inscription, it had become the accepted name for Khazad-dûm in the Common Speech. The use of English to represent the Common Speech in primary sources such as the inscription on Balin’s Tomb was a result of Tolkien’s vision of completely translating all Westron into modern English, even in authentic documentation, although upon reflection Tolkien said that this translation was “an erroneous extension of the general linguistic treatment”.

And the mountain said: ‘But my dear, this is your life. Wake, and embrace it.’

“The doors to the world of the Wild Self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.”

I found a monster under my skin. She’s all craving and wild, Long howls and strong limbs. She paces through my veins, Feet hitting earth like drum beats, I hear her coming when my blood sings. She’s got fire in her eyes, And prey in her teeth, Jaws like vows, unyielding, Iron like her will. I promised her the world, And she ate it whole, hungry still.
